Abstract: A stacked construction plate, including a core layer, which is equipped at least on one flat side with a coating that serves as a support layer. The support layer includes at least three layers, namely a thin transition mortar layer, which is attached to the core layer, a non-woven glass fiber layer and a connection layer, which is made from compression-resistant, hardened coating mortar having a smoothed surface.

Abstract: The invention relates to a multi-layer coating system for a body (1) made of a building material, wherein the coating system has a sandwich-like design comprising at least three layers, namely: a first base layer (2) that comes in contact with the body, comprising a fiber-free and granule-free two-component epoxy resin; an intermediate layer comprising a flat random fiber non-woven material (3); and a sand-finished top layer (4) comprising a fiber-free and granule-free two-component epoxy resin. The invention further relates to a method for producing such a coating system.

Abstract: The invention relates to a substructure element (8) for placement beneath a shower base element (2), wherein the substructure element (8) and shower base element (2) are provided with a drainage opening (3) for installing a drain pan (4), and the substructure element (8), which occupies the entire volume between the underside of the shower base element (2) and the mounting substrate, comprises at least one panel (7; 9) made of foamed plastic material, which is provided with an opening that is adapted to the peripheral design of at least one drain pan and is provided with a structured lumen that extends through the thickness of the substructure element and adjoins the opening.

Abstract: Edging seal profile for kitchen worktops and the like, which is equipped with a top layer. The edging seal profile comprises a hollow chamber profile, which is enclosed by one front wall leg and two substantially parallel limiting legs deployed at a distance from each other, and which can be filled with a plate element or with an insulation mass, wherein the limiting legs are connected with the front wall leg projecting at right angle, and its upper limiting leg forms on its upper side a supporting surface for the top layer, which is connected with the front wall leg.

Abstract: A drain system and receiving element for a drain system. The drain system is equipped with a drain arrangement, having a receiving element, which accommodates the drain arrangement in a covering manner and which is equipped with at least one holding element on which a veneer element can be reversibly fixed so that it can be removed. The receiving element for a drain system includes a receiving element that is designed as a separate, box-like hollow body that is constructed as a prototype box of a wall.

Abstract: A lightweight plastic foam construction element (1), for use in making shower stalls, bathroom partitions and the like, consists of a plastic foam core (4) with at least one external mortar layer (8) reinforced with fibers.
