Safety: Wire mesh provides strength to support surfaces, walls, and construction materials, as well as additional weight or traffic, once they are set in place. For example, wire mesh is used in roadway and bridge paving for extra structure. It can also hold up tunnel walls.
Stability: Along the same lines, the consistency of wire mesh provides stability that would otherwise be lacking. This is one of the main reasons why wire mesh is used in cement floors and foundations.
Durability: A slab of concrete supported by wire mesh is much stronger than a standalone slab of concrete. In many cases, it is stronger than rebar. Additionally, rust and corrosion resistance means it will last longer than non-wire mesh products.
