The Spectacular Spider-Man - S2 E3: Reinforcement

What does neglect look like when it's not obvious? Because I didn't grow up in a hazardous environment, but my trauma points at serious neglect (enough to enrage my therapist). Well... in short, it's a lack of support and/or an invalidation of support.

"I support you," is a phrase that gets weaponized in unhealthy relationships. Words people use to appease or soothe or control a situation. Parents who defined support as, "I gave you life and I pay for you to live here". People in authority defining support as, "I'm paid to put up with you". Or friends defining support as, "I laugh and cry in your presence". None of which are very supportive, and all of which were fairly the norm in my life. I accepted this ^^^ as being the support I deserved while witnessing others receiving real encouragement, acceptance, and upliftment.

And before anyone gets started: I was a child; a child doesn't innately know how to ask for things (it's taught, not innate behavior), nor should a child have to beg to be loved.

So neglect can look like a lack of encouragement. Neglect can look like justifying bare-minimum "service" or obligation as support (eg "I could turn you out, but I keep you here out of the kindness of my heart"). Neglect can look like failing to teach your child/student/ward how to ask for help or express what they need (and then failing to give them what they ask for OR failing to explain why it can't be given). Neglect can look like refusing to reinforce - expressing a kind of support once, and then losing patience the next time instead of remembering habits take time and repetition to develop.

Supporting someone doesn't need the words "I support you". Support can look like genuine interest in someone's well-being. Support can look like assistance or picking up slack. Support can look like a silent present when the world hurts/sucks. Support can look like keeping someone on task for success (eg "Did you take your meds", "Have you eaten", "Are you prepped for the test", "What's the thing you needed to do by next week", etc). Support can look like clear, detailed instructions, especially for the neurodivergent. Support can look like reinforcing someone's pronouns or vouching for their identity or their hyperfixations. Support can look like going up to the painting made by the one person in the room that seems to have no friends, and finding something genuinely uplifting about it to say to the artist. Support can look like offering to come to the house of a parent with a newborn to do chores, prep food, and let parent take a nap and a shower (not to see the baby and bounce). Support can look like holding a person's boundaries in the face of someone they bend to. Support can look like paying attention. Support can look like equity vs fairness.

Imagine a LACK of all of the above. Imagine someone who might have never faced hostility or a hazardous environment, but also never received any form of acknowledgment, validation or encouragement. Imagine someone who has received this support, but not in a particular circumstance, or that it was backhanded or came with expected reciprocation. And now you have a picture of just how common and widespread neglect really is.

Be aware that it takes a lot of energy for a neglected person to encourage themselves forward. If you see it (or even if you don't see it), offer the pick-me-up that's in your spoon drawer to offer. SHOW your support, don't TELL them you support them. And let others know when you need it, too, by being exact about explaining what you need.

JOGANI Scrim Laid Mesh: The Lightweight Reinforcement Transforming Construction and Composites

From waterproofing to wallboards, scrim laid mesh is quietly reshaping industries with durability, efficiency, and design flexibility. In a world demanding smarter, stronger, and lighter materials, Scrim Laid Mesh has emerged as a silent workhorse across multiple industries. Used in construction, packaging, waterproofing membranes, insulation systems, and composite materials, this unassuming reinforcement fabric is gaining widespread adoption—particularly in India’s booming infrastructure and industrial sectors.

What is JOGANI Scrim Laid Mesh? Jogani Scrim laid mesh is a non-woven, open-grid textile made by laying continuous yarns (typically polyester, fiberglass, or natural blends) in a warp-weft pattern and bonding them at the junctions through thermal, chemical, or mechanical processes. Unlike woven fabrics, scrim is engineered to be lightweight, stable, and exceptionally cost-effective.

Reinforces Without Bulk: Offers high tensile strength while maintaining flexibility and low weight.

Improves Durability: Prevents cracking, warping, and delamination in laminates and coatings.

Highly Customizable: Mesh size, orientation, and bonding technique can be tailored for specific use cases.

According to industry experts, scrim mesh is now a preferred reinforcement in bitumen membranes, gypsum boards, FRP panels, and tear-resistant packaging. Its rise is also aligned with the Make in India initiative and growing demand for sustainable, high-performance reinforcement materials. “Scrim Laid Mesh combines simplicity with strength. Its impact spans across waterproofing, insulation, interiors, and even composites—helping manufacturers meet global quality standards at local costs,” says Mahesh Kumar Jogani, Director, JOGANI Reinforcement. This mesh has many applications.

Construction & Waterproofing: Reinforces bituminous and acrylic membranes, EIFS, and wallboards.

Industrial Packaging: Used in tear-resistant envelopes, fabrics, and flexible packaging liners.

Composites: Acts as a stabilizer in FRP sheets, panels, and automotive laminates.

About JOGANI® Reinforcement JOGANI® Reinforcement is a leading manufacturer and exporter of engineered technical textiles and composite reinforcement solutions. Known for innovation in basalt, fiberglass, and polymer mesh technologies, JOGANI® supports infrastructure, construction, and composite industries globally.

The Bar Bending Schedule offers the requirements for the reinforcement steel bars that are required for the specific building structure. The Bar Bending Schedule includes different types of reinforcement bars along with different lengths and bends.

All details regarding the reinforcement steel bars need to be included in the Bar Bending Schedule in mm, which are essential in the production of the reinforcement steel bar. The specified information about the angles of the bends and the length between bends also needs to be included in the Bar Bending Schedule.

Effectiveness of Bar Bending Schedule in Construction

Accuracy of the Bar Bending Schedule

The Bar Bending Schedule helps to ensure that the reinforcement has been placed accurately in the beams or slabs.

Efficiency of the Bar Bending Schedule

The Bar Bending Schedule helps to assist the construction professionals regarding the estimation of the appropriate steel quantities, thus, the Bar Bending Schedule helps to minimise the amount of ordered rebars.

Providing guidance to the construction employees

The Bar Bending Schedule provides accurate information regarding the bend, cut or placement of the reinforcements, thus improving the entire construction procedure of the reinforcement steel bars.

Controlling design quality

The Bar Bending Schedule also helps to ensure that the building codes and engineering designs meet the quality standards.

Inventory management feature

The Bar Bending Schedule helps to maintain the steel stocks, thus preventing the excess or deficiency of the steel stocks.
