  • Patent number: 10723040
    Abstract: A formliner, sheet, system, and methods of use and manufacture are provided in order to provide a product that can minimize and/or eliminate visible seaming between interconnected formliners during fabrication of a pattern on a curable material. In some embodiments, the formliner can comprise raised sections that define interrelated inner and outer dimensions. Thus, a plurality of formliners can be interconnected by overlaying raised sections thereof. Further, the formliner can comprise one or more detents and one or more protrusions to enable engagement between interconnected formliners without requiring adhesives. In this manner, formliners can be interconnected in a nested manner such that visible seaming between the interconnected formliners is reduced and/or eliminated.

  • Patent number: 4793728
    Abstract: A drainage system located adjacent a pavement subbase includes a tube of a geotextile fabric supported by a self-sustaining water-porous plastic support. An end of the fabric tube and its encased support are compressively received in the flared open end of an outlet connected to a conventional drainpipe. The outlet includes a plurality of projections which trap the fabric tube between the support and the outlet, so as to securely retain it therein. The outlet also preferably includes a plurality of circular beads over which the corrugated drain tube can be frictionally slipped. Alternatively, the outlet can be configured as a flat union of T-shaped junction joining one or more upstream fabric tube-and-support filters with a downstream outlet constructed from an identical fabric tube and support.

  • Patent number: 4367976
    Abstract: An expansion joint seal assembly for sealing a roadway gap, which includes a pair of spaced apart elongated anchoring channel extrusion members to be secured in structural slab portions oppositely bounding the gap, and an elongated resilient sealing strip member for sealing the gap between the anchoring channel members. The anchoring channel members have an anchoring cavity opening toward the gap shaped to define a constricted entrance throat portion opening to the gap and communicating with a transversely enlarged, inner retaining chamber portion, and the strip member has a diaphragm web portion providing distortable folds and anchoring bead formations each forming substantially a hollow triangle in cross-section providing a back wall portion and a pair of forwardly converging walls which form an apex located below a horizontal reference plane extending through the vertical midpoints of back wall portion and provide a shallow concave trough immediately subjacent each apex.
