The need for “single-direction” welded deformed wire reinforcement mats is very common.

It is noteworthy that ACI 318-19 acknowledges treatment of welded deformed wire reinforcement in a manner identical to individual loose deformed bars and deformed wires when welded intersections are either absent or are not intentionally-positioned for tensile development or curtailment.  With this treatment established, and in light of modern welded wire manufacturing capabilities, it is difficult to find a technical justification for a broadly-applied prescriptive maximum spacing of welded intersections as is done in Section 20.2.1.7.3.   

ACI 318-19 Sections 25.4.6.4 and 25.5.3.1.1 outline the common scenario in which the absence of intentionally-positioned welded intersections in turn requires calculation of welded deformed wire reinforcement development length and lap splice length, respectively, to be based on the same equations that are used for individual (loose, non-welded) deformed bars and deformed wires.  In essence, these ACI 318 provisions direct the designer to disregard any contribution a welded intersection might make to bond and development, and have the designer instead base these attributes on the deformed wire surface's contribution alone. 

We encourage designers and contractors to continue to take advantage of the highly-customizable welded deformed wire reinforcement mat arrangements capable of being produced by modern automated welding equipment.  This includes “single-direction” welded wire reinforcement mats characterized by structural deformed wires in one direction and perpendicular non-structural wire positioned as required in the other direction.
