This European Standard specifies the requirements for masonry bed joint reinforcement for structural
use (see 5.2.1) and for non-structural use (see 5.2.2).
Where products are intended for use in cavity wall construction, this European Standard covers only
the performance of the meshwork as reinforcement in bed joints and not its performance as wall ties
across the cavity.
This European Standard is not applicable to:
a) products in the form of individual bars or rods;
b) products formed from materials other than specified grades of austenitic stainless steel or zinc
pre-coated steel sheet or zinc coated steel wire with or without organic coating.
NOTE Annex ZA refers only to welded wire meshwork intended for structural use for structural use referred
to in 5.2.1 as there are no known regulated requirements for products of this family for non.structural use.
