    Abstract: A fabric (10, 20, 30) adapted for the reinforcement of constructions such as of roads or pavements has a fabric width W2 in a transverse direction. The fabric (10, 20, 30) comprises a carrier (12, 22, 32). The fabric further comprises reinforcement elements (14, 24′, 24″, 34) extending over the fabric width and being fixed or bound to the carrier (12, 22, 32). The carrier (12, 22, 32) has a carrier width W1 that is smaller than the fabric width W2 so that the reinforcement elements (14, 24′, 24″, 34) protrude out of the carrier (12, 22, 32). The advantage is that when two neighbouring fabrics (40, 44) overlap, it is possible to avoid a double layer of carriers.

    Abstract: A structure for the reinforcement of pavements, said structure having a longitudinal direction and a transverse direction, said structure comprising a first group of reinforcement element, said reinforcement elements of said first group being oriented in a first direction in a mutual parallel or mutual substantially parallel position, said reinforcement elements being integrated in a substrate, whereby said substrate comprises or consists of a non-metal material with a melting temperature between 60 and 135° C.

    Abstract: Assembly for energy absorption, comprising m number of substantially straight steel wires and n number of curved steel cords, at least one of the m number of substantially straight steel wires having a tensile strength of at least 1000 MPa and an elongation at fracture of at least 5%, at least one of the n number of curved steel cords having a tensile strength of at least 2000 MPa and an elongation at fracture of at least 2%, wherein m and n are integers m>1, n>1, and at least one of the m number of substantially straight steel wires and at least one of the n number of curved steel cords are fixed together along their longitudinal direction, and the elongation at fracture of at least one of the m number of substantially straight steel wires is at least 2% larger than the elongation at fracture of at least one of the n number of curved steel cords such that the elongation curve of the assembly comprises three zones (11, 11′, 12, 12′, 13, 13′), wherein a first zone (11,11′) is characterized by an elastic deformation of the substantially straight steel wires, a second zone (12,12′) is characterized by the plastic deformation of the substantially straight steel wires and a third zone (13,13′) is composed of the continued plastic deformation of the substantially straight steel wires and the elastic deformation of the curved steel cords.
