Publication number: 20230272219Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the field of so-called “spreading” emulsions of hydrocarbon binder, in particular cationic emulsions of hydrocarbon binders. Such emulsions are useful in the preparation of surface dressings, tack coats, fog seal type surface courses and paver seams. The use of an anionic polymer to improve immediate adhesiveness of a cationic emulsion of hydrocarbon binder to solid particles is particularly described.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 1, 2021Publication date: August 31, 2023Applicant: VINCI CONSTRUCTIONInventors: Thomas LEBARBE, Frédéric DELFOSSE, Marie-Laure PIERRE

Patent number: 11091893Abstract: A method for freezing and treating a mass of soil, making it possible to compensate for deformations of the mass of soil during thawing, including the following steps: a) producing at least one bore (2) in the mass of soil, b) at least partly freezing the mass of soil using a freezing fluid injected into the bore, and then c) injecting a compensation grouting into the mass of soil, using the bore (2) that was used for freezing, during the thawing phase in order to at least partly compensate for variations in the volume of the mass of soil when the latter thaws.Type: GrantFiled: May 9, 2018Date of Patent: August 17, 2021Assignee: VINCI CONSTRUCTIONInventors: Romain Nicolas, Bertrand Thidet, Raphaël Gueulet, Jérôme Stubler

Patent number: 11027754Abstract: A transport installation includes a traction member extending in a circuit and associated with an external power source so as to be moved along the circuit, a vehicle having a power storage system, a motor system, a generator system and a fixed support adjacent to the circuit. The generator system of the vehicle includes a generator that may be activated to supply power to the storage system when the vehicle is coupled to the traction member and driven along the circuit by the traction member. The motor system of the vehicle includes a motor that may be activated to receive power from the storage system and move the vehicle relative to the fixed support.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 2018Date of Patent: June 8, 2021Assignee: Vinci ConstructionInventor: Jérôme Stubler

Patent number: 10824312Abstract: The method involves projecting layout information on a working surface of a construction work. The projected layout information is obtained from a model, such as a Building Information Model (BIM), of a portion at least of the construction work. It includes first graphical information depicting a reference feature visible on the working surface, and second graphical information designating locations for installation of construction elements. The locations are linked, in the model, to the reference feature depicted by the first graphical information. In response to a user action of selecting the first graphical information and a geometric transformation, the projected first graphical information and second graphical information are shifted together in accordance with the selected transformation.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 2015Date of Patent: November 3, 2020Assignee: VINCI CONSTRUCTIONInventors: Jerome Stubler, Cedric Sauviat
