1, Structural composition
Steel wire rope: Made by twisting high-strength steel wire, common materials include stainless steel wire, galvanized steel wire, etc. The steel wire rope mesh made of stainless steel wire is corrosion-resistant and suitable for humid and highly corrosive environments; Galvanized steel wire improves its rust prevention ability by coating it with a zinc layer on the surface, which is relatively low-cost and widely used. The diameter and strength grade of steel wire rope are diverse, with diameters generally ranging from 2-8mm and strengths ranging from 1570MPa to 2160MPa to meet different protection requirements.
Connection method: The steel wire rope is interwoven into a mesh structure through specific weaving techniques or connectors such as buckles and loops. Common weaving techniques include twisted weaving, where adjacent steel wire ropes are twisted together at intersections to form a stable diamond or square mesh. This connection method gives the mesh good integrity and flexibility; Buckle and loop connections are made by clamping metal buckles or sleeve connections at the intersection of steel wire ropes for easy installation and adjustment.
2, Performance characteristics
High strength and impact resistance: The high-strength characteristics of the steel wire rope itself endow the net with strong load-bearing capacity and impact resistance. Capable of withstanding large rockfall impacts or resisting external impacts, such as in slope protection, it can effectively intercept high-speed falling stones and ensure the safety of personnel and facilities below.
Flexibility: It has good flexibility and can absorb energy through its own deformation when subjected to external impact, buffering the impact force and avoiding instantaneous fracture due to excessive rigidity. For example, in a passive protective net system, it can adapt to different shapes of slopes and complex terrain.
Corrosion resistance: Steel wire ropes that have undergone special treatment (such as galvanizing, coating, etc.) greatly enhance their corrosion resistance and can be used for a long time in harsh natural environments, reducing maintenance costs and replacement frequency. Corrosion resistant steel wire rope mesh has obvious advantages in coastal areas or chemical pollution areas.
Transparency: The mesh structure gives it a certain degree of transparency, which does not affect vegetation growth and slope drainage. It is beneficial for maintaining ecological balance in slope protection and can also reduce wind loads to a certain extent.
3, Application scenarios
slope protection
Active protection: The active steel wire rope net system fixes the net on the slope surface through anchor rods and support ropes, restricting the movement of rocks and soil on the slope surface and preventing geological disasters such as collapse and landslides. Widely used for slope protection of mountainous highways and railways, reducing damage to transportation routes caused by slope instability and ensuring driving safety.
Passive protection: The passive wire rope net system is installed below the hillside or in potential rockfall areas to intercept falling rocks. Commonly used in mining areas, steep mountain slopes, and other high-risk areas for rockfall, to protect the safety of buildings, roads, and personnel below.
Building protection: During construction, it can be used as an external scaffolding protective net to prevent construction personnel and tools from falling; It can also be used for edge protection of building balconies, stairs, elevator shafts, etc., playing a role in safety isolation.
Zoos and breeding farms: used as fences for animal exhibition areas in zoos, which can limit the range of animal activities, ensure the safety of visitors, and provide a broad view for easy viewing; In the breeding farm, it can be used to keep poultry and livestock in captivity to prevent them from escaping.
Sports facilities: Steel wire rope nets are set up around sports fields such as golf courses and baseball fields to intercept sports balls and prevent them from flying off the field and causing accidental injuries or damage to surrounding facilities.
