Indicator Mesh is a bright coloured red extruded
plastic mesh used on bridge decks to indicate
and protect the waterproof membrane. The plastic
mesh acts as an ideal visual indicator. The
mesh is installed over a layer of sand asphalt
or a fine binder course which has been laid
over the bridge decks waterproof membrane. Above
the Indicator net, a further binder course
is laid above before the bridge surface course
is laid.
Indicator mesh is the perfect cost
effective alternative to other depth indicator
techniques including red sand asphalt. Upon
future resurfacing, planning or repairs to
the bridges surface, the indicator mesh acts
as clear indicator and warning that the waterproof
membrane is below.
