BMP Tecco Mesh G80/2 is a high-tensile, rhomboid (diamond) steel wire mesh that pairs 2.0 mm wire with an ≈ 80 mm inscribed opening. As the lightest 80-mm-aperture option in the BMP tecco family, it offers fast handling, excellent drainage, and an open visual profile—while maintaining reliable surface control on weathered rock and soil/rock interfaces. The knotted ends ensure efficient load transfer to edges and seams. G80/2 integrates with anchors, spike plates, boundary and sewing (lacing) ropes, and connection clips as a complete, systemized facing.
2) Key advantages Tecco Mesh G80/2
- Lightest 80-mm variant for rapid installation and easier manual handling
- Open aperture (~80 mm) for superior drainage, vegetation growth, and lower visual mass
- High-tensile wire (≥ 1770 N/mm²) for low elongation and dependable capacity paths
- Knotted edges for strong, tidy terminations and reliable seam behavior
- Durable metallic coatings (Zn–Al or HDG) for long service life in harsh climates
- System-ready with standard anchors, spike plates, and lacing components

4) Where G80/2 fits in the family Tecco Mesh G80/2
-
Versus G65/2: larger aperture for more drainage and an even lighter “feel” per square meter.
-
Versus G80/3 / G80/4 / G80/4.6: same 80 mm openness, but lighter wire; choose heavier wires when higher mechanical reserves are required.
-
Versus G45/2: significantly more open and faster to install; pick G45/2 where very tight face control is needed.
5) Typical applications Tecco Mesh G80/2
-
Active slope stabilization on rock cuts and embankments
-
Rockfall mitigation where large aperture aids drainage and vegetation
-
Soil-nail / rock-bolt facings that benefit from a lightweight, open mesh
-
Aesthetic/vegetated slopes requiring unobtrusive appearance and fast installation
6) System components (select as needed)
Component | Function |
---|---|
Spike plates | Distribute anchor load efficiently into the mesh |
Anchors / bolts | Primary connection to competent ground (self-drilling or bar anchors) |
Boundary rope | Secures perimeters, transitions, and terminations |
Sewing (lacing) rope | Joins adjacent panels; maintains continuity and load paths |
Connection clips/clamps | Rapid local connections at specified points |
7) Installation summary (good practice)
-
Survey & design the anchor grid, panel layout, edge treatment, and seam/lacing plan.
-
Drill & set anchors; verify embedment; fit spike plates and nuts; pretension to specification.
-
Place panels; align diamonds with load paths; secure edges using boundary rope.
-
Sew/lace panels along the full seam at the specified pitch; maintain uniform tension; add clips where required.
-
Pretension & inspect: final torque check; verify contact, overlaps/terminations, and overall continuity.
8) Design & selection guidance Tecco Mesh G80/2
-
Choose G80/2 when the project prioritizes speed, drainage, and low visual mass with an 80 mm aperture, and when 2.0 mm wire capacity is sufficient.
-
For higher design loads or dynamic energy levels, consider G80/3, G80/4, or G80/4.6.
-
Detail all edges and seams with boundary rope and lacing to maintain clean load paths.
-
Specify the coating class/mass according to the site’s corrosivity category.
9) Quality & documentation Tecco Mesh G80/2
-
Manufactured from high-tensile steel wire with controlled tolerances.
-
Batch test certificates available (wire strength, coating class/mass; unit mass on request).
-
Typical submittals include: panel schedule, anchor layout, spike plate details, lacing method, and inspection/acceptance criteria.
10) Ordering checklist (G80/2)
