Frequently asked questions about the Metal / rebar / forms for the foundation category
What is Metal / rebar / forms for the foundation and what are they used for?
Metal / rebar / forms for the foundation is a set of materials for shaping and reinforcing strip and slab foundations: reinforcement mesh, rebar, aluminium tubes and formwork. They provide structural strength, crack resistance and accurate geometry when casting concrete.
What sizes of reinforcement mesh and tubes are available in this category?
The range includes reinforcement mesh such as REINFORCEMENT MESH 4X800X1100 S=150MM — panels 800×1100 mm with 150 mm spacing. Also aluminium tubes: ALUMINIUM ROUND TUBE 20/2x3000mm, ALUMINIUM SQUARE TUBE 40x40/2x3000mm, and ROUND TUBE 40 mm with L=2000 mm.
What is the difference between STRIP FOUNDATION 250/300 and 250/300*3000 forms?
STRIP FOUNDATION 250/300 denotes a 250×300 mm cross-section form for strip foundations. The 250/300*3000 version has the same cross-section but comes as a 3000 mm long panel, useful for long runs and fewer joints in formwork.
Are aluminium tubes suitable for formwork or bracing?
Yes — ALUMINIUM ROUND TUBE 20/2x3000mm and ROUND TUBE 40 mm L=2000 are suitable for lightweight formwork and temporary bracing due to low weight and corrosion resistance. For load-bearing components use 2 mm wall-thickness profiles and ALUMINIUM SQUARE TUBE 40x40/2x3000mm.
Which reinforcement mesh is better for a strip foundation: FASSAADI ARMEERIMISVÕRK DEKORAL 50m/50m² 165g/m² or REINFORCEMENT MESH 4X800X1100?
For a strip foundation choose REINFORCEMENT MESH 4X800X1100 S=150MM — it’s a welded panel with suitable bar spacing (150 mm) for structural reinforcement. The FASSAADI DEKORAL 50m/50m² 165g/m² is a lighter roll, more suited to facades or decorative layers.
What sizes of aluminium L-profiles are available and what are they used for?
The range includes ALUMINIUM L-PROFILE 30x30/3x3000mm — a 30×30 mm angle with 3 mm thickness and 3000 mm length. L-profiles are used to assemble light frames, stiffen formwork and join panels.
Are VUNDAMENDIKATE NAELAD TIHENDIGA 3,5X45 MM/100 TK suitable for fixing formwork?
Yes — these nails (3.5×45 mm) are designed for fixing coverings and formwork elements; 45 mm length and 3.5 mm diameter suit fixing thinner wooden panels and protective layers.
How to calculate required reinforcement for a strip foundation?
Compute the total length of the strip, divide by mesh panel width (e.g. 800 mm for REINFORCEMENT MESH 4X800X1100) and account for required longitudinal bars. Include overlaps (typically 200–300 mm) and add 5–10% waste for cutting and fitting.
Can the rebar and meshes in this category be used for a private house foundation?
Yes — items here (reinforcement meshes, STRIP FOUNDATION 250/300 forms, aluminium profiles and tubes) are suitable for private house foundations if you follow the design requirements for bar diameters and spacing. Use design-specified bars and welded meshes with 150 mm spacing where required.
How to correctly join STRIP FOUNDATION 250/300*3000 form sections on site?
Join 250/300*3000 sections with clamps or bolted connections, level them and tighten the joints. Stiffen joints using ALUMINIUM L-PROFILE 30x30/3x3000mm and provide temporary bracing with 40 mm tubes.
Which metal products from this category are best for a retaining wall frame?
Use ALUMINIUM SQUARE TUBE 40x40/2x3000mm and ALUMINIUM L-PROFILE 30x30/3x3000mm for a retaining wall frame — they provide stiffness and corrosion resistance. Use ROUND TUBE 40 mm for bracing and corner reinforcement.
