Abstract: A roof/wall structure includes a substantially rigid substrate and a waterproof membrane adhesively joined to an outer surface of the substrate. The membrane includes a layer of thermoplastic or elastomeric waterproof material, a layer of cushion material bound to an inner surface of the layer of waterproof material, and a pressure sensitive adhesive bound to a side of the layer of cushion material remote from the layer of waterproof material and bound to the substrate.

Abstract: A hail-resistant roofing membrane includes a flexible waterproof polymeric layer of material, a flexible layer of non-woven fabric joined throughout the area of a first surface thereof to the polymeric layer, and a flexible layer of foam material joined throughout the area of a first surface thereof to a second surface of the layer of non-woven fabric, the layer of foam material being adapted for attachment to a roof surface throughout the area of a second surface of the layer of foam material. The roofing membrane is adapted for attachment to an existing roof structure. A method for making the membrane includes binding the polymeric layer, the non-woven fabric layer, and the layer of foam material together with the fabric layer disposed between the polymeric layer and the foam material.

Abstract: A method for increasing puncture resistance of a thermoplastic or elastomeric membrane for use in water proofing of subterranean structural substrates, the method comprising bonding a layer of cushion material to the membrane, the cushion material comprising a cellular foam material and being adapted to conform around minor irregularities in a surface of the structural substrate.

Abstract: A membrane for application to a surface of a structure to provide waterproofing protection to the structure, the membrane including a surface layer of thermoplastic or elastomeric material, a layer of cushion material sealed to the layer of thermoplastic or elastomeric material, a pressure sensitive adhesive bound to a side of the cushion material remote from the thermoplastic or elastomeric material, and a release liner removably mounted on the pressure sensitive adhesive.

Abstract: A composite reinforced thermoplastic sheet comprising a thermoplastic sheet and a fabric reinforcing layer adhered thereto, wherein the thermoplastic sheet comprises a polymer blend of ethylene-styrene interpolymer, polyolefin, and thermoplastic rubber and at least one fire retardant.
