(3.05-mm) or 0.113-in. (2.87-mm)wire or with mesh sizes smaller tha

33、n 2 inches.11.2 On fabric galvanized after weaving, the weight ofcoating shall be determined on one or more pieces of wireremoved from the fabric. These specimens may be of anylength over 12 in. (300 mm) and shall include both bends andstraight sections, but shall not include either twists or knuckl

34、es.11.3 The weight of coating shall be determined in accor-dance with Test Method A90/A90M.12. Breaking Strength12.1 Wire constituting the fabric shall meet the minimumbreaking strength listed in the Breaking Strength table ofSpecification A817 when tested in accordance with TestMethods and Definiti

35、ons A370. Specimens to establish confor-mance to this requirement shall consist of individual picketsfrom a section of the fence fabric. The specimens shall be ofsufficient length so as to be firmly gripped in the testingmachine after straightening. The actual gage length (distancebetween jaws) of t

36、he specimen shall be limited to the unde-formed length of wire between the two adjacent straightenedbends.13. Workmanship13.1 Chain-link fence fabric shall be produced by methodsrecognized as good commercial practices. The zinc coating ongalvanized-after-weaving fabric shall be applied in a continu-

37、ous process and shall not be applied to the fabric in roll form.The galvanized before-weaving fabric shall be woven usingproven industry procedures to ensure a smooth consistentsurface without penetrating to the substrate, except at theselvage cut ends, see Note 3.13.2 Excessive roughness, blisters,

38、 sal ammoniac spots,bruises, flaking, and white rust shall be noted. The GalvanizedAfter Weaving (GAW) process shall include the use of appro-priate apparatus for producing galvanized fabric so as toprevent excess material in the elbow joints that form thediamond mesh. The finished product shall exh

39、ibit free inde-pendent motion of overlapping wires that form the diamondmesh when in a free or installed state of tension. Any of theabove described defects listed in 13.1 and 13.2 that willcompromise the function of the product shall provide a basisfor rejection.NOTE 3On fabric that is zinc-coated

40、before weaving, rust formationson the cut ends of the wire at the fabric selvages are inherent character-istics of this material and do not warrant rejection of the fabric.14. Standard Length of Rolls14.1 The standard length of roll shall be 50 ft (15.24 m) 61 % except as otherwise agreed upon at th

41、e time of purchase.14.2 The length of roll shall be determined by unrolling aroll of fabric on a flat surface and exerting tension byappropriate means to remove all slack. The tension appliedshall not reduce the actual height of the fabric by more thanTABLE 2 Available Mesh Sizes and Zinc Coating We
