  • Patent number: 6199344
    Abstract: Grid-shaped reinforcement strip is configured for reinforcing masonry joints, and includes at one substantially straight elongated reinforcement wire having a substantially rectangular cross section. There is a further reinforcement wire having a substantially rectangular cross section that is spaced apart from the at least one reinforcement wire. At least one connecting wire extends between opposed faces of such at least two spaced apart reinforcement wires. An unflattened weld attaches the at least one connecting wire to respective ones of opposed faces of such at least two reinforcement wires. The connecting wire preferably has a substantially round cross section, and the thickness of the at least one connecting wire is as thick as or less thick than the thickness of the at least two reinforcement wires.

  • Patent number: 5669195
    Abstract: The invention relates to a wire bead (1) for plaster, stucco and the like comprising a strip of bent diagonal wires (2) and longitudinal wires (3) welded to one another, in which the strip is bent at an angle around a longitudinal wire (4) to form a wire bead (1) having a virtually V-shaped cross-section, in which the longitudinal wire running along the apex of the wire bead (1) is provided with a longitudinal profile (7) having a virtually triangular-shaped cross-section.
