ISO 17746 is an international standard on steel wire rope net panels and rolls that discusses the specifications of steel wire rope net panels and rolls. ISO 17746 specifies the characteristics of steel wire rope net panels and rolls for retaining unstable slopes controlling and preventing rockfalls and loose debris flow along roads, highways, and railways, urban areas, mines, and quarries, and for snow avalanche protection.
Steel wire rope net panels and rolls are produced from metallic-coated wire ropes.
ISO 17746 on steel wire rope net panels and rolls is relevant to:
Wire rope net panels are panels made from wire rope or ropes arranged in a plain structure and connected at the points of overlapping by wire knots, by interlinking of the wire ropes, or by metallic clips.
ISO 17746 provides guidance on the description of use and applications, wire rope net panels, properties of wire used in knots, wire rope properties, rope net properties, sampling, and testing.
As a user of ISO 17746, you can be ensured of the characteristics of steel wire rope net panels and rolls. With obedience and compliance to ISO 17746, you can efficiently calculate the net tensile strength and can measure the load-bearing capacity. With sampling, and testing provided in ISO 17746 you can be ensured that the products consistently meet and exceed quality assurance targets.
