Or more are laid just like mangalore tiles with most effective interlocking arrangement to prevent rain water entry below.

Nbirt has already developed these panels but the present process is manual resulting into low. It is durable versatile cheap durable and efficient material. It can be used to make highly inventive shapes and structures. Ferrocement panels and to compare the effect of varying the no of wire mesh layers and use of steel fibers on the ultimate strength and ductility of ferrocement slab panels.

And skeletal reinforcement as steel wire or small diameter steel bar. That is heavily reinforced with both wire mesh and rebar. Ferro cement wall panels are made of opc ppc or blast furnace slag cement aggregates and reinforcements like wire mesh. The cement is typically a very rich mix of cement and sand in a 3 1 ratio.

Back to how tos next post previous post. Pictures of tilt up and lift into place wall panel experimentation. This video captures the process of process of production of ferro cement wall panels. Chicken mesh welded mesh woven mesh hexagonal mesh etc.

It can be used in combination with plain cement concrete or reinforced cement concrete. Or ferrocement mega tiles of size 1 5 x 1 2 mtr. Ordinary cement mixes were used here. Ferrocement or ferro cement is a system of construction using reinforced mortar or plaster lime or cement sand and water applied over an armature of metal mesh woven expanded metal or metal fibers and closely spaced thin steel rods such as rebar the metal commonly used is iron or some type of steel.
