WIREMESH REINFORCEMENT CONTRIBUTED FLEXURAL AND COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF
BRICK WALL PANELS
Abstract
Wall is one of the important elements of the building and serves to separate and form a space in
residential buildings or storied. In the development of the world very rapidly and building construction
technology advances, many new innovations are found on the walls of one of them is a precast wall
panels with reinforcement.Wall panels have a high quality and provide convenience in workability and
structural systems efficiently determine the construction budget, the concrete in the wall panels were
replaced by bricks coated mortar to become the cheaper alternative, and required a different method,
namely red brick mounted horizontally for creating a thinner wall and efficiently. The test object is
created with a size of 50 cm width, 100 cm length and 10 cm height for testing compressive strength and
flexural strength, the lifes of the specimen are planned up to 28 days. On specimen maintained by way of
watered.Tests performed at this research is testing the compressive strength and flexural strength at 28
days. At the lifes of 28 day compressive strength values obtained without wiremesh reinforcement of
1,878 MPa and compressive strength with wiremesh reinforcement at 2.10 MPa, for flexural strength
without reinforcement wiremesh obtained a value of 1.493 MPa and with wiremesh reinforcement of
3,800 MPa. In this case the visible increase in the compressive strength and flexural due wiremesh
reinforcement.

Dinding merupakan salah satu elemen penting dari bangunan dan berfungsi untuk memisahkan
dan membentuk ruang di bangunan tempat tinggal atau bertingkat. Dalam perkembangan
dunia yang sangat cepat dan kemajuan teknologi konstruksi bangunan, banyak inovasi baru
yang ditemukan di dinding salah satunya adalah dinding pracetak panel dengan tulangan.
Dinding panel memiliki kualitas tinggi dan memberikan kemudahan dalam pengerjaan dan
struktur sistem efisien menentukan anggaran konstruksi, beton di panel dinding digantikan oleh
batu bata dilapisi mortar menjadi alternatif yang lebih murah, dan diperlukan metode yang
berbeda, yaitu bata merah dipasang horizontal untuk menciptakan dinding tipis dan efisien.
Benda uji dibuat dengan ukuran lebar 50 cm, panjang 100 cm dan tinggi 10 cm untuk pengujian
kuat tekan dan kuat lentur, yang lifes dari spesimen yang direncanakan sampai dengan 28 hari.
Pada spesimen dipelihara dengan cara watered.Tests dilakukan pada penelitian ini adalah
pengujian tegangan tekan dan lentur pada 28 hari. Pada umur nilai tegangan tekan 28 hari
diperoleh tanpa penguatan wiremesh dari 1.878 MPa dan tegangan tekan dengan tulangan
wiremesh di 2.10 MPa, untuk stres lentur tanpa penguatan wiremesh diperoleh nilai dari 1,493
MPa dan dengan tulangan wiremesh dari 3.800 MPa. Dalam hal ini peningkatan terlihat dalam
kuat tekan dan lentur karena tulangan wiremesh.

WIREMESH REINFORCEMENT CONTRIBUTED FLEXURAL AND COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF
BRICK WALL PANELS
Abstract
Wall is one of the important elements of the building and serves to separate and form a space in
residential buildings or storied. In the development of the world very rapidly and building construction
technology advances, many new innovations are found on the walls of one of them is a precast wall
panels with reinforcement.Wall panels have a high quality and provide convenience in workability and
structural systems efficiently determine the construction budget, the concrete in the wall panels were
replaced by bricks coated mortar to become the cheaper alternative, and required a different method,
namely red brick mounted horizontally for creating a thinner wall and efficiently. The test object is
created with a size of 50 cm width, 100 cm length and 10 cm height for testing compressive strength and
flexural strength, the lifes of the specimen are planned up to 28 days. On specimen maintained by way of
watered.Tests performed at this research is testing the compressive strength and flexural strength at 28
days. At the lifes of 28 day compressive strength values obtained without wiremesh reinforcement of
1,878 MPa and compressive strength with wiremesh reinforcement at 2.10 MPa, for flexural strength
without reinforcement wiremesh obtained a value of 1.493 MPa and with wiremesh reinforcement of
3,800 MPa. In this case the visible increase in the compressive strength and flexural due wiremesh
reinforcement.

Dinding merupakan salah satu elemen penting dari bangunan dan berfungsi untuk memisahkan
dan membentuk ruang di bangunan tempat tinggal atau bertingkat. Dalam perkembangan
dunia yang sangat cepat dan kemajuan teknologi konstruksi bangunan, banyak inovasi baru
yang ditemukan di dinding salah satunya adalah dinding pracetak panel dengan tulangan.
Dinding panel memiliki kualitas tinggi dan memberikan kemudahan dalam pengerjaan dan
struktur sistem efisien menentukan anggaran konstruksi, beton di panel dinding digantikan oleh
batu bata dilapisi mortar menjadi alternatif yang lebih murah, dan diperlukan metode yang
berbeda, yaitu bata merah dipasang horizontal untuk menciptakan dinding tipis dan efisien.
Benda uji dibuat dengan ukuran lebar 50 cm, panjang 100 cm dan tinggi 10 cm untuk pengujian
kuat tekan dan kuat lentur, yang lifes dari spesimen yang direncanakan sampai dengan 28 hari.
Pada spesimen dipelihara dengan cara watered.Tests dilakukan pada penelitian ini adalah
pengujian tegangan tekan dan lentur pada 28 hari. Pada umur nilai tegangan tekan 28 hari
diperoleh tanpa penguatan wiremesh dari 1.878 MPa dan tegangan tekan dengan tulangan
wiremesh di 2.10 MPa, untuk stres lentur tanpa penguatan wiremesh diperoleh nilai dari 1,493
MPa dan dengan tulangan wiremesh dari 3.800 MPa. Dalam hal ini peningkatan terlihat dalam
kuat tekan dan lentur karena tulangan wiremesh.
