PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The high tensile rockfall netting system is installed in the same general way as conventional double twist mesh. It is easy to handle and will not require extensive modification of existing method statements and installation techniques. The inclusion of the steel ropes greatly enhances the transfer of loads from the mesh into the anchorage system thereby increasing safety, capacity and durability of the mesh as a complete system.
