Experimental Investigation on Tensile Behavior of Chicken Mesh for Ferrocement Application in Cost Effective Construction
Main Article Content
Abstract
Tension Test were conducted on Chicken mesh which are available in market in different sizes such as 28, 22, 20 gauge. Wire diameter and opening size of types of chicken mesh are 0.35mm and 14.5mm (28 gauge), 0.70 mm and 15.59mm (22 gauge), 0.80 mm and 17mm (20 gauge). Tensile strength test was done on three samples of chicken mesh under each category such as 28,22,20 gauge. The main objective of the study is to find ultimate load carrying capacity and elongation. Test outcomeconfirmations that ultimate load carrying capacity of 22-gauge chicken mesh is more in comparison with remaining two types chicken mesh such as 28 & 20 gauge. Chicken mesh is one of the main constituents in Ferrocement application in cost effective Construction. Therefore, experimental Investigation in Carried out to standardize the tensile load carrying capacity of types of chicken mesh..
