  • Patent number: 12264489
    Abstract: A reusable modular structural member may replace wooden structures used in concrete forming, transportation, marine, and construction applications. The reusable modular structural member includes a structural profile with first and second sides; a plurality of support beams extending from the first to the second side; at least two fasteners, one at a first end and another at a second end of each of the plurality of ribs; and a groove on a first edge and a tongue on a second edge that are configured to form a dovetail joint that can attach two reusable modular structural members of similar configuration. A reusable modular member can include the modular structural profile and interfacial layers covering the first and second sides. The reusable modular member may be made by extruding the structural profile and molding a recycled plastic polymer to external portions of the structural profile to form the interfacial layers.

  • Patent number: 5792552
    Abstract: The invention relates to concrete form panel sheeting comprising a resinous polymer core defining a concrete-form face and an opposite face, and a concrete-facing surface layer attached to the concrete-form face, the concrete-facing surface layer being adapted to be contacted by fresh concrete and to release from the concrete after curing thereof, to facilitate reuse of the concrete form panel sheeting. The invention further relates to concrete forms and form networks having the inventive concrete form panel sheeting as a component therein. The invention also relates to applications using the sheeting and forms to pour concrete.
