1、Designation:A 185/A 185M 07Standard Specification forSteel Welded Wire Reinforcement,Plain,for Concrete1This standard is issued under the fixed designationA 185/A 185M;the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last
2、revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon(e)indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1.Scope*1.1 This specification covers welded wire reinfo
3、rcement tobe used for the reinforcement of concrete.NOTE1Welded wire for concrete reinforcement has been describedby various terms:welded wire fabric,WWF,fabric,and mesh.The wirereinforcement industry prefers the term“welded wire reinforcement”(WWR)as being more representative of the range of produc
4、ts beingmanufactured.Therefore,the term“welded wire fabric”has been replacedwith the term“welded wire reinforcement”in this specification and inrelated specifications.1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard.The values stated ineach system
5、 may not be exact equivalents;therefore,eachsystem shall be used independently of the other.Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the standard.(Within the text the inch-pound units areshown in brackets.)2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2A 82/A 82M Specificati
