What are the uses of glass fiber mesh fabric?

Many consumers may not be very familiar with glass fiber mesh, but it plays a crucial role in construction engineering. What are the functions of glass fiber mesh? Let's introduce them one by one.

The exterior thermal insulation mesh keeps the construction structure within a stable temperature environment, benefiting the maintenance of the structure and enhancing the durability of the thermal insulation layer. Additionally, the external insulation wraps around the construction, covering a larger area, which is more conducive to energy conservation. Regarding the issue of wall cracking in external insulation, improvements can be made in the use of mesh materials and construction methods to meet the required construction quality standards.

The exterior thermal insulation constructed should be the full exterior thermal insulation of the entire building. Incomplete insulation can cause cracks in the parapets and canopies of the building, thus, to prevent cracking, we should insulate the building, including the parapets and canopies, with detailed procedures referable to North China Standard 88JZ13. The primary cause of cracking in the external wall insulation is due to the difference in linear expansion coefficients between the thermal insulation mesh fabric and the external decorative materials. Our principle to prevent cracking is: by reducing the ratio of linear expansion coefficients between the building's external thermal insulation materials, decorative mortar, and exterior finishes, we create a gradual transition between materials, allowing flexible stress release to prevent cracking.
