摘要:
The present invention provides a construction (1) comprising a first element (2) extending between a first (3) and a second (4) opposite free end and comprising a first duct (5) forming an opening (6,7) in each of the first and second free ends. The construction further comprises a second element (8) extending between a third (9) and a fourth (10) opposite free end and comprising a second duct (11) forming an opening (12,13) in each of the third and fourth free ends. The first (2) and second (8) elements are arranged so that the second end (4) and the third end (9) are facing each other. Furthermore, the construction comprises a tubular link (14) with a body of a flexible material, which the tubular link is arranged to provide communication between the first (5) and second (11) ducts, thereby providing an uninterrupted duct from the first end to the fourth end.

A wet well design that utilizes recycled material in sectional components to construct wet wells on site is disclosed. Traditional wet well components are made of pre-cast concrete. Green Recycled Material Component Wet Well components are constructed using recycled plastic, recycled steel and recycled Styrofoam. The method described herein for constructing the components and assembling the wet well on site addresses several logistical problems associated with the pre-cast concrete design including reducing project start to completion time, delivery costs, large crane rental costs and power line relocation costs. This design also enables construction of oblong wet wells in medians and other restricted areas as components can be straight or curved sections. Finally, this design eliminates the shifting of traditional cement well components due to uplift from underground water pressure through the use of a new anchoring system. Shifting can result in groundwater intrusion into the well.
摘要:
A covering for protecting surfaces in general, which comprises a sheet body that forms an internal supporting frame, to which a layer of self-sealing thermoplastic polymer is connected; the layer forms at least one face of the sheet-like body, the sheet-like body having protrusions for engaging a surface to be covered.

A molded concrete member has two facings, respectively active and passive, spaced from one another by a preselected distance, and between which is embedded a reinforcing cage. The cage has, on either side of a neutral axis, two layers, respectively active and passive, which are separated by a spacing. Each layer has at least one longitudinal solid bar of preselected cross-section, the spacing and the cross-section of the bars being determined in relation to loads to be applied, the two layers are respectively parallel to both facings of the molded element and are connected by transverse linking armoring.

An apparatus for joining precast concrete units. A precast concrete unit, such as a section of pipe, decking and pavement includes a plurality of spaced, longitudinally aligned tubular members. The ends of each concrete unit are flush and are bounded by rounded edges to prevent chipping. The ends of the tubular members are flush with the end of the concrete unit. When two of such units are to be joined together, a guide member is inserted in one end of each tubular member on one concrete unit while an internally threaded insert member is inserted into each end of the tubular member in a second concrete unit. The guide members and insert members have axial apertures with the aperture in the insert member being internally threaded. The two precast concrete units are brought together so that the guide member on one concrete unit enters into the ends of the tubular members containing the inserts in the second concrete unit. A bolt is passed through each guide member and is threaded into the internally threaded aperture in the insert member. The bolts are tightened to join the two precast concrete units together. A resilient gasket can be cast into one end of a concrete unit when it is formed or can be inserted into a groove which is formed in a face of a precast concrete unit at the time it is formed. The gasket used in the groove is U-shaped and a resilient cord is inserted to the bottom of the groove to spread the sides of the gasket to securely lock it in place in the groove. The method of assembling precast concrete units is also disclosed.
摘要:
A stirrup reinforcement mat in which the stirrup projections have a question mark configuration so that the extremity of the laterally extending top portion of each projection does not extend to any significant degree beyond the vertical plane defined by the base wire to which the stirrup projection is joined. This configuration is believed to enhance the strength of a concrete product reinforced with this mat and also minimizes tangling when the mats are stacked together for storage or shipping.
摘要:
Reinforcing material for hydraulic substances such as cement, mortar, concrete or the like and a method for producing it. The reinforcing material consists essentially of an elongated product of a synthetic resin having protrusions on its surface and which was obtained by extruding and subsequent stretching. The method comprises mixing a polyethylene having a melt index of not more than 0.01 at 190.degree. C. under the load of 2.16 Kg with a polyethylene having a melt index of more than 0.01 thereby to obtain a polyethylene mixture having a melt index of 0.01 to 10, melt-extruding the polyethylene mixture under such conditions as to give an extruded product having a jagged surface and stretching the extruded product, whereby the reinforcing material having protrusions on its surface is obtained. Hydraulic substances with the reinforcing material incorporated therein is useful for production of concrete panel, concrete pipe, concrete channel, tetrapod, sleeper, tunnel, etc.

The specification discloses a stirrup mat which a pipe producer manually forms in or on, and assembles to, a concrete pipe reinforcing cage, which assembly is then cast into a concrete pipe. The mat includes a plurality of parallel stirrup members, each having multiple projections, joined by just enough tie wires, 2 to 6, to give the mat dimensional stability. The tire wires are made of a flexible or ductile material having sufficient flexibility or ductility to allow the mat to be manually, arcuately shaped so as to conform to the curvature of the cage to which it is assembled.
摘要:
A pipe of concrete, cement mortar or other cementitious material is formed by an integrally cast cementitious mass which is reinforced with a glass fibre strand or roving forming a substantially helical winding extending around the pipe and incorporated in the cement matrix of the cementitious mass. Preferably there are two windings, one incorporated in the outer periphery of the mass and the other incorporated in the inner periphery of the mass. The pipe is preferably made by a centrifugal casting operation in which a centrifugal casting mould is rotated and the glass fibre strand or roving is fed from a feeding device within the mould and is caused to adhere to the internal peripheral face of the mould and then the feeding device is moved axially along the mould as the mould rotates so that the winding is formed from the roving around the internal peripheral face of the mould. The concrete or other cementitious material is introduced into the mould at the same time as the glass fibre roving or subsequently and the winding becomes incorporated in the cement matrix of the cementitious material as the mould continues to be rotated.

A method of manufacturing prestressed concrete pipe which comprises arranging a reinforcing cage in a form, casting expansive concrete within the form in such a manner that the reinforcing cage is disposed outwardly of the center of the wall thickness of the concrete layer, and then forming the pipe centrifugally.
