*Fiber mesh is made up of fibrous materials like synthetic fibers, glass fibers, natural fibers, and steel fibers. It is typically used in sidewalks, patios, and driveways. Rather than being laid down prior to the pour, this type of mesh is distributed evenly throughout the wet concrete.
*The purpose of fiber mesh is to reduce water loss from the concrete as well as enhance its structural integrity. This type is also used to create a higher impact resistance in the concrete, prevent thawing, and increase its strength. Unlike wire mesh, this particular type of reinforcement provides more than just a single layer of support–it reinforces concrete throughout its entire surface.
