Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

assessment, as well as information about ISO’s adherence to the WTO principles in the Technical

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 17745:2016(E)
Steel wire ring net panels — Definitions and specifications
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies the characteristics of steel wire ring net panel for retaining of
unstable slopes controlling and preventing rockfalls and loose debris flow along roads, highways and
railway, urban areas, mines and quarries, and for snow avalanche protection produced from metallic-
coated steel wire or advanced metallic coating.
It is not applicable to anchors or soil nails for fixing of steel mesh to an unstable slope.

way that the ring is manufactured and constituted
4 Description of use and applications
The typical use for the considered products is retaining of unstable slopes, controlling and preventing
rockfalls and loose debris flow along roads, highways and railway, urban areas, mines and quarries,
and for snow avalanche protection.
5 Wire ring net panels
Wire ring net panels are ring panels where each ring is made by several loop bindings, each one obtained
by looping a single steel wire. Each ring is connected with four or six contiguous rings in order to create
a net as shown in Figure 2.
For the connection of the panels, shackles or wire rope shall be used. The strength of the connection
formed shall be equal to or greater than the tensile strength of the ring net panel.

7 Wire net properties
The chain of three rings is mounted in a calibrated test traction rig and it is connected to the machine
with two circular elements of 50 mm diameter, not less than four times the diameter of the strand.
Before the test, a slight tension is given to stabilize the system, then the force is reduced again to zero
before the test starts.
The chain of three rings is tensioned by the test machine with a recommended displacement speed of
2 mm/s, until breaking (see Figure 2).
The chain of three rings breaking load is reached when the chain is no longer able to support any
increase of the applied force. Tests shall be performed on a minimum number of three samples.
The tensile test machine shall be of class 1 according to ISO 7500-1.

8 Wire ring net properties (longitudinal tensile test with no lateral contraction
and load bearing capacity test)
Tensile strength and load bearing capacity tests are described in Annex B and Annex C.
Tensile strength and load bearing capacity tests are indications of product performance and quality.
The use of the results for design purposes shall be based on an engineering judgement in accordance
with the experience and the current practice and site conditions.
9 Sampling and testing
The manufacturer is responsible for the control of product quality.
