alusvõrk

Alusvõrk, a term of Estonian origin, translates to "base net" or "foundation net" in English. It refers to a structural component used in construction and various industrial applications. Typically, alusvõrk is a mesh-like material made from metal, often steel or aluminum, or from synthetic polymers. Its primary function is to provide support, reinforcement, or containment.

In construction, alusvõrk is commonly used as reinforcement for concrete, especially in slabs, walls, and foundations. It helps to distribute stress evenly, preventing cracks and increasing the overall strength and durability of the concrete structure. The grid pattern of the alusvõrk provides a strong framework that binds the concrete together.

Beyond concrete reinforcement, alusvõrk finds applications in fencing, as a substrate for insulation materials, in agricultural settings for animal enclosures or plant support, and as a component in filtration systems. The specific material and mesh size of the alusvõrk are chosen based on its intended use and the load-bearing requirements. Its versatility and strength make it a valuable material in a wide range of projects.
