  • Process of mixing reinforcing elements with castable material
    Patent number: 4314853
    Abstract: Reinforcing members for the reinforcement of hardenable or settable material such as concrete or mortar are disclosed. The reinforcing members comprise a plurality of wire elements such as fibers united by a binder which loses its binding ability when mixed with the settable material, thereby releasing the elements in a random manner in the matrix.Methods are also disclosed for mixing the reinforcing members in the matrix and for making the reinforcing members.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 18, 1980
    Date of Patent: February 9, 1982
    Assignee: N.V. Bekaert S.A.
    Inventor: Joris Moens

  • Construction panels
    Patent number: 4075380
    Abstract: A construction panel comprising two substantially parallel sheets of material interconnected by bridging portions integral with the sheets, the sheets and bridging portions being formed by a moldable hard-setting material reinforced by a plurality of randomly oriented metal fibers distributed therein. Also described is a method for making such a panel.

  • Reinforcing wire element
    Patent number: 3942955
    Abstract: A wire element for being mixed in a substantially hardening soft material. It consists of a substantially straight wire end, having at both extremities a bending in a form for which the hooking-in of two neighbouring elements is not possible.
