Mine grid mesh size is very important for performance. Mesh size adjustment refers to the dimensions of the blocks contained in the grid and how well the grid interlocks with the mining materials for soil, rock or waste. Better confinement of fine grained materials is achieved through smaller mesh size which subsequently aids the soil strenthening the grid's ability5 to reinforce soil and paritcle movement prevention. In comparison, larger mesh size is ideal for interlocking with coarse materials, enabling better load bearing. The selected mesh size has to accommodate at the very least, the type of mining operation, the characteristics of materials to be reinforced, and the anticipated loads given to the grid in order to maintain optimal reinforcement for varying mining operations.
