Publication number: 20040258476Abstract: A method and apparatus for constructing an automotive vehicle parking lot (10) on a land area (12) is provided. A composite drainage material (20) is provided through which water drains. The composite drainage material (20) comprises a polymeric open mesh core (22) between first and second layers (24 and 26) of a non-woven geo-textile fabric. The land area (12) is covered with the material (20) by placing rolls (28) of the material adjacent one another. The rolls (28) are unrolled over the land area (12) so that longitudinal edge portions (30 and 40) of adjacent rolls adjoin one another. A portion (34, 44) of the longitudinal edge portions (30 and 40) are overlapped and secured to each other, and not to the land area (12), to create a gapless and continuous surface (84) of the material (20), with the majority of the land area (12) lying underneath the material. The first layer (24) of each of the rolls (28) contacts the land area (12).Type: ApplicationFiled: June 16, 2004Publication date: December 23, 2004Applicant: Center West EnterprisesInventor: A.

Publication number: 20040253055Abstract: An apparatus for constructing a removable surface includes a plurality of rolls of composite drainage material with overlapped edges. The composite drainage material comprises a layer of a polymeric open mesh core between first and second layers of a non-woven geo-textile fabric having a fibrous outer surface. A closure member secures overlapping edges. The closure member comprises at least one surface of hooks that engages the fibrous outer surface of the fabric to form a hook and loop closure to secure sections of the overlapping longitudinal edge portions together. A method of constructing the removable surface is also provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 7, 2004Publication date: December 16, 2004Applicant: Center West EnterprisesInventor: A. Basil Polivka

Patent number: 6361245Abstract: A method of constructing a temporary vehicle parking lot (10) on a land area (12) comprises the steps of: providing a composite drainage material (20) through which water drains; and covering the land area (12) with the composite drainage material (20) so that the land area is underneath the composite drainage material. The composite drainage material (20) comprises a polymeric open mesh core (22) between first and second layers (24 and 26) of a non-woven geo-textile fabric. One (24) of the first and second layers contacts the land area (12). The other (26) of the first and second layers faces away from the land area (12) and provides a surface (50) on which vehicles may be parked. The composite drainage material (20) directs water which contacts the other layer (26) through the first and second layers (24 and 26), through the polymeric core (22) between the layers, and into the land area (12) covered by the composite drainage material (20).Type: GrantFiled: March 24, 2000Date of Patent: March 26, 2002Assignee: Center West EnterprisesInventor: A.
