terasvõrk

terasvõrk is a term that can refer to a few related concepts, primarily within the context of construction and engineering. Most commonly, it translates to "steel mesh" or "steel grid" in English. This refers to a structure made of intersecting steel bars or wires, welded or woven together to form a grid. These meshes are used for various structural reinforcement and protective purposes.

In construction, terasvõrk is frequently employed as reinforcement for concrete. When embedded within concrete, it increases the tensile strength and helps prevent cracking, particularly in applications like foundations, walls, and slabs. The grid pattern distributes stress evenly across the material.

Another significant application is in the creation of protective barriers. Teras võrk can be formed into fences, cages, or grates to prevent unauthorized access or to contain materials. Its strength and durability make it suitable for demanding environments. It is also used in landscaping and architectural designs for decorative elements or as structural support for climbing plants. The specific type of teras võrk, its gauge, and the spacing of its elements are chosen based on the intended application and the required load-bearing capacity or security level.
