Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the manufacture of objects from water-hardened materials, reinforced with one or more reticulate webs, one over the other, which webs have been obtained by stretching, fibrillating and spreading of a film of organic polymeric material, by continuously supplying one or more reticulate webs, contacting them with a water-hardening material and water, thus forming a composite material, and shaping and hardening this material. This is obtained according the invention in that:a. one or more reticulate webs, one on top of the other, are continuously supplied and laid on a carrier;b. the reticulate webs are folded zig-zag on this carrier;c. the folded network is continuously transported in a direction virtually normal to the direction in which the reticulate webs are supplied;d. subsequently, the folded network is contacted, directly or indirectly, with a water-hardening material and water.

Abstract: Laminated board structures having excellent mechanical properties made up of a layer of thermal and/or acoustic insulating material strongly bonded to a layer of fibre-reinforced water hardened cement with an aqueous dispersion containing an addition polymer preferably containing acid groups and having an average particle size between 0.05 micron and 5 microns. Improved mortar composition used in the laminate structure.
