Abstract: Exemplary embodiments provide a prefabricated modular shower enclosure, including a base with a plurality of engagement feature along a peripheral surface of the base, a plurality of alignment supports, and a surround panel. In some embodiments, at least one alignment support is positionable in a preselected relationship relative to the engagement features of the base, and the alignment supports are configured to be independently made square relative to the base. Additional exemplary embodiments provide a prefabricated shower enclosure, including a base with a plurality of engagement feature along a peripheral surface of the base, and a plurality of surround panels that engage the base. The modular shower enclosure reduces installation time and complexity by using components that are fabricated and cut to size offsite prior to installation at a job site.

Abstract: An agglomerate glass surface product may include an agglomerate formed predominantly of glass aggregate having controlled proportions of different glass particle sizes bound by a cured thermoset binder infused within substantially all inter-aggregate voids. The agglomerate may be in the form of a pressed slab that is substantially non-porous and substantially devoid of air inclusions throughout an entire thickness of the slab. The glass aggregate may be substantially uniformly mixed with the thermoset binder throughout the entire thickness of the slab so as to be exposed at all surfaces of the slab. The agglomerate may have an overall aggregate content that is high enough to produce a slab surface that can be polished in the same manner and with the same machinery that natural stone is polished. Advantageously, the slab may have the look and feel of a natural stone slab. A related manufacturing method is also disclosed.
