20100247239 | SHEET-LIKE ELEMENT FOR REINFORCING, SEPARATING AND DRAINING LARGE STRUCTURES, SUCH AS ROAD EMBANKMENTS - A sheet-like element for reinforcing, separating and draining large structures such as road embankments, comprising a sheet-like body which has a lattice-like configuration with main wires and transverse wires stretched along two mutually substantially perpendicular directions, the main wires, i.e., in the extrusion direction of the blank that provides the sheet-like body, having a substantially quadrangular cross-section with substantially sharp edges at least at their upper rim. | 09-30-2010 |
20100284740 | Structural Underlayment Support System For Use With Paving And Flooring Elements - A paving system for paving or flooring includes a top layer of a plurality of paving elements, and an underlayment support layer of a polymeric material configured into panels. The panels are suitable to support the paving elements, the panels having a generally planar support surface and a recovery characteristic such that a deformation from a concentrated compressive load applied for a short duration returns the support surface to a generally planar condition. | 11-11-2010 |
20110194897 | Apparatus And Method For On Site Pouring Of Pre-Stressed Concrete Structures - An apparatus and method for on site pouring of pre-stressed concrete structures. A form, having elongated sides spanned by first and second bulkheads at each end, is assembled on a building site. The form defines the size and configuration of a structure, and has an upper edge determining the upper surface of the structure. A transportable cable pre-stressing frame is provided, having a first end and a second end with respective outrigger assemblies and at least one pre-stressed cable extending therebetween. Adjustable means are provided for positioning and maintaining the frame over and generally in longitudinal alignment with the form, the pre-stressed cable lying below the form's upper edge. Concrete is poured into the form, covering the cable. After curing is complete, the portions of the cable extending outside the concrete structure are cut, releasing the tension on the cable and transferring it to the concrete. | 08-11-2011 |
20110211908 | TRAFFIC BEARING STRUCTURE WITH PERMEABLE PAVEMENT - A traffic bearing structure with a permeable pavement includes a subgrade, a base positioned on top of the subgrade, and a wear surface positioned on top of the base. The base includes aggregate compacted in a single lift, where the aggregate in the base includes different sized particles mixed together. The wear surface includes a permeable pavement. The particle size distribution of the aggregate in the base is selected to provide adequate stability and permeability for the permeable pavement. | 09-01-2011 |
20120076581 | REINFORCED ICE FOR ROAD SURFACES AND A METHOD OF FABRICATING THEREOF - A method of fabricating a composite road surface in cold climates for ice roads. In one embodiment the road surface includes: a combination of water and sawdust that is placed on the road surface and frozen. The composite road surface may include a base layer of ice, a color layer over the base layer and a cover layer over the color layer, the cover layer being worn or removed exposing the color layer. | 03-29-2012 |
20130149035 | POT HOLE REPAIR PATCH AND METHOD OF INSTALLATION - A road patch for repair of potholes is disclosed. A pothole is preliminarily repaired with asphalt fill and compacted per current standard practice. Thereafter, a road patch is placed upon the compacted top surface of the asphalt fill, overlapping onto the adjacent road surface and compressed. The road patch forms a water proof seal over the surface area of the patch preventing water from seeping into the repaired pothole. The patch also resists crack propagation and minimizes the potential of asphalt chipping and the breaking down of the asphalt fill. | 06-13-2013 |
20140270948 | ROAD BASKET AND METHOD OF MAKING SAME - An improved road basket including a non-metallic dowel, a first support frame including a first support frame first leg and a first support frame first cup moldably secured to the dowel first end, and a second support frame including a second support frame first leg and a second support frame first cup moldably secured to the dowel second end. Multiple dowels can be secured in similar fashion to additional leg members. Preferably, the first support frame first leg and a first support frame second leg are connected by a base frame member. In addition, the first support frame first leg and the first support frame second leg may be connected by an intermediate frame member. The frame may be constructed of a single piece. The dowel is preferably made from fiberglass or glass fiber reinforced polymer and the frame is preferably high density polyethylene. | 09-18-2014 |
20140270949 | ROAD BASKET AND METHOD OF MAKING SAME - An improved road basket including a non-metallic dowel, a first support frame including a first support frame first leg and a first support frame first cup moldably secured to the dowel first end, and a second support frame including a second support frame first leg and a second support frame first cup moldably secured to the dowel second end. Multiple dowels can be secured in similar fashion to additional leg members. Preferably, the first support frame first leg and a first support frame second leg are connected by a base frame member. In addition, the first support frame first leg and the first support frame second leg may be connected by an intermediate frame member. The frame may be constructed of a single piece. The dowel is preferably made from fiberglass or glass fiber reinforced polymer and the frame is preferably high density polyethylene. | 09-18-2014 |
20150110555 | METHOD FOR PRODUCING A FIBRE CONCRETE SLAB FOR PAVING LOW-TRAFFIC ROADS, CONCRETE SLAB, AND METHOD FOR PAVING LOW-TRAFFIC ROADS - The invention relates to a method for paving low-traffic roads or paths with a paving slab that is cast in situ and has a width Dx narrower than the smaller value of D1 and D2, wherein D1 is the free distance between the front wheels of a standard haulage truck and D2 is the distance separating the wheels of the rear-wheel train, being the length of the paving slab Lx shorter than the value of the length L of the free distance between the front axle and the first rear axle of the wheel train of the standard haulage truck, such that the dimensions Dx and Lx mean that a single wheel or, alternatively, a single wheel train of the standard truck is always supported by the paving slab, touching same. The method comprises the steps of: providing for paving either a low-traffic road which has neither asphalt or concrete paving, or a low-traffic path; evening out and levelling the road or path to be paved; determining the width and length of the paving slab and establishing the thickness thereof in accordance with the amount of traffic and the traffic load, the bearing capacity of the natural ground, the strength of the concrete, the residual strength thereof and the climate, such that the thickness is between 5 and 15 cm; determining the amount of fiber required for a required design residual strength of between 10% and 50% of the maximum strength of the concrete; and preparing the mixture of concrete and fibers which are selected from steel, glass, polypropylene, carbon or another structural fiber for concrete. In addition, the method comprises pouring the mixture of fiber concrete directly onto the road or path to be paved according to | 04-23-2015 |
