Installation : Hi-rib lath is ideal for refurbishing damaged or aged masonry walls, when a key for rendering is not certain due to disintegration or softening of the wall face. Lath should be fixed with apexes of ribs against the wall, edge ribs of sheets nesting into each other should be wire-tied every 15cm and ends of sheets should be lapped not less than 2.5cm and nesting ribs securely tied together.
A correctly formed Hy-rib joint outperforms traditionally prepared joints in shear and bond. Hy-rib reduces the risk of trapped air and voids withint the concrete.
Stainless steel fixings should be used at sufficient intervals to hold the lath firmly in position.
