| The main goal of this research is to investigate the type and form of wire mesh most effective in the load resistance less deflection possible by testing load deflection of the samples in the laboratory. The results showed that the ordinary mesh with square wholes most effectiveness in strengthen their loads. Which have higher strength percent with less deflection. The second goal from the research is studying the effect of palygoriskite adding by the optimum content with high range water reducing admixture on some mechanical properties of the ferrocement paste through curing period arrive to 28 days for some properties like ( compressive strength , splitting tensile strength , flexural strength ) , and mix proportions 1:2.5 with w/c equal to 0.45. The results showed that concrete containing high reactive palygoriskite 15% from cement weight with high rang water reducing admixture had improvement in ( compressive strength , splitting tensile strength and flexural strength ). Where the percentage of incresement was (31.5% , 55.1% , 108.4%) at 28 days in compressive strength , splitting tensile strength and flexural strength respectively with reference mix . | ||
