Abstract: An under trailer aerodynamic control system that increases air mass, organization and velocity with forward mounted airflow modifying directional panels and a rear airflow modifier mounted in a firm and movable manner for location near the underneath side of a truck trailer forward of the trailer tires and axles to better manage airflow around the trailer tire and axle assembly. In operation, the rear mounted airflow modifier collects the airflow from the forward mounted modifiers and routs impinging air to exit between the trailer tires and well past the end of the trailer for controlled road spray and splash while keeping tires and brakes running cooler and decreasing parasitic drag of the trailer as it moves along the highway while reducing driver fatigue due to improved handling characteristics.

Abstract: An aerodynamic system that may have forward mounted airflow directional panels and an airfoil device mounted either in a firm or movable manner to the underneath side of a truck trailer just forward of the trailer tires and axles to better manage airflow around the trailer tire and axle assembly. In operation, the device collects and routs impinging air to exit between the trailer tires and well past the end of the trailer for controlled road spray and splash while keeping tires and brakes running cooler and decreasing parasitic drag of the trailer as it moves along the highway while reducing driver fatigue due to the improved handling characteristics.

Abstract: A composite board for use as backerboard for tile, the board including a mesh layer with a mesh fabric, a mat layer with a mat fabric and a polystyrene layer disposed between the two portions where a non-shrinking cement compound saturates and connects the two outer portions with the polystyrene substrate. The composite board's mesh layer incorporates a stretchable mesh which in conjunction with the polystyrene substrate and the non-shrinking cement compound supports standard fasteners used in the home-building industry along with providing a suitable tile adhesion surface. The mat layer incorporates a fiberglass mat which provides high rigidity as well as being suitable for contact with an inner wall or studs. The combination of materials provides a backerboard that is light weight, rigid, economical and easy to build with.
