A paperboard or fiberboard sheet is provided with at least one preapplied adhesive strip used to connect together and an adjacently positioned surface protector to form a dust-proof and/or liquid-proof seal between the two surface protectors.

A movable topography marking system with a movable marking system for marking in actual size at least some construction information on a construction surface, said marking system comprising at least a spraying device adapted to spray at least one painted band; an engraving laser adapted for burning said at least one painted band for marking on said at least one painted band construction information; and at least one positionning topographic prism.

A self-propelled robot for rebar binding including wheel units that travel on intersecting rebars; frame units mounted multiply aligned on right and left of the wheel units corresponding to an array interval of the rebars on which the wheel unit travels, binder holding units positioned between a front wheel and rear wheel of the wheel unit and by which rebar binders that bind intersecting rebars are detachably mounted per each wheel unit; driving units each having a binder driving portion that drives the binder holding unit up and down; and a control unit that controls travel motion of the wheel units and binding motion of the rebar binder. The driving units each include a trigger driving pin, and the control unit having a binding control portion that causes the trigger driving pins of the driving units to simultaneously and respectively press the triggers of the rebar binders.

A deck construction device for assisting with laying decking. The device as a body which has a handle and a substantially planar face from which at least two spacers extend. At least one screw hole is defined through the body, the at least two spacers are arranged to span a width of a decking plank. The length of a first spacer corresponds to the thickness of a decking plank; and the length of a second spacer extends beyond the thickness of the decking.

An apparatus for curing concrete includes a multiple layer polyolefin film and an absorbent layer. The polyolefin film layer can include pH modifying components and antiskid components. The absorbent layer can also include pH modifying components. The absorbent layer can include nonwoven fabric. The apparatus can be applied to curing concrete after hydration water is applied to the curing concrete. The apparatus can also be used to enclose poured concrete members during transport of the members so as to continue the curing process during transport. The film can also be used as a barrier layer between the ground and poured concrete.

The absorbent layer can include pH modifying components. The apparatus can be applied to concrete after hydration water is applied. The apparatus can enclose concrete members during transport so as to continue the curing process during transport. The film can be used as a barrier layer between the ground and poured concrete. The apparatus can be manufactured by heating a film to its crystalline softening point, applying adhesive material to an absorbent material, and adhering the film to the absorbent material. A method of curing concrete includes pouring concrete, waiting for the concrete to reach the bleed stage, providing hydration water, adding a pH modifying component to the hydration water, and applying the hydration water with the pH modifying component to the poured concrete.

A method of lining a pipe with a lining mixture formed from a dry component and a liquid is discussed. The method includes placing the dry component in a dry component surface container located above ground, conveying the dry component from the dry component surface container to a dry component subterranean supply container located underground, conveying the dry component from the dry component subterranean supply container to a mixer located underground, mixing the dry component with the liquid to form the lining mixture, and applying the lining mixture to the pipe with a mixture applicator.

A reinforced compound concrete beam-column joint containing demolished concrete lumps and a construction method are disclosed. The steel strip stirrups configured to constrain column longitudinal reinforcements of the reinforced compound concrete column containing demolished concrete lumps and the steel connection sheets with grooves are arranged in joint at positions of the upper and lower beam longitudinal reinforcements of the reinforced compound concrete beam containing demolished concrete lumps. The steel strip stirrups abut against the column longitudinal reinforcements. The steel connection sheets are welded to the steel strip stirrups. One end of the short steel bars with threads at one end is welded into the grooves of the steel connection sheets, and the other end is connected to the beam longitudinal reinforcement via a steel sleeve. The joint prevents the beam longitudinal reinforcements from passing through the joint and thus causing reinforcements congestion.
