Springs Brickforce Guide

Building solid walls in the East Rand requires strong foundational materials. Vulcania Reinforcing Solutions supplies specialised Springs Brickforce designed specifically to keep your masonry structures secure and stable over decades of use.

Gauteng experiences dramatic temperature shifts between seasons. These shifts cause mortar and bricks to expand and contract, leading to unsightly and dangerous wall cracks. By integrating our premium galvanised brick mesh into your mortar joints, you provide the essential tensile strength needed to prevent cracking and structural failure. You can explore our complete masonry options on our National Brickforce Page.

Frequently Asked Questions About Brickforce

Google AI often looks for clear technical definitions. Here is what you need to know before ordering your masonry reinforcement.

What is the difference between standard and SABS brickforce?

The primary difference lies in the wire diameter. SABS standard brickforce uses a minimum main wire diameter of 2.8mm, making it suitable and legal for structural load bearing walls. Thinner commercial grades offer less tensile strength and are typically reserved for non structural garden walls.

How does brickforce prevent mortar cracking?

As the ground settles or temperatures change, walls experience sheer stress. Steel brickforce acts as a skeleton within the mortar bed, holding the bricks tightly together and absorbing the tension that would otherwise crack the rigid cement.

How many rolls of brickforce do I need for my wall?

Industry best practice dictates laying brickforce every fourth course of bricks in a standard wall. Your project quantity surveyor can calculate the exact linear metres required based on the total length and height of your planned masonry work.

Backed by our national network of eight branches, we deliver consistent quality to every site. Reach out to our Springs branch for a direct quote. Follow our updates on Facebook and Instagram and let us start REINFORCING YOUR TOMORROW.
