The present invention provides structure protection sheets which can not only dramatically reduce a construction period to place protective layers on surfaces of structures such as concrete but also protect structures for a long time. The present invention relates to a structure protection sheet, including: a polymer cement layer on a side facing a structure; and a resin layer on the polymer cement layer, the structure protection sheet having a thickness distribution of not more than ±100 μm.

A method of forming a lightweight polished concrete and the resulting composition. Calcium sulfoaluminate (CSA) cement and specialized grout may be added to an amount of water in a mixer. The CSA cement, specialized grout, and water may be blended to a smooth consistency. Lightweight aggregates (LWA) may be added to the blended CSA cement, specialized grout, and water to form a mixture. The mixture may be poured over a fiberglass rebar, vibrated, screeded, and allowed to set. The set mixture may be smoothed with float blades. The smoothed mixture may be hardened with metal blades, such that the hardened mixture becomes reflective. A concrete densifier may be applied to the hardened mixture to form the lightweight polished concrete. Optionally, one or more saw cuts may be formed in the lightweight polished concrete and a coating to may be applied to fill the one or more saw cuts.

A method of forming a lightweight concrete block and the resulting structure. Calcium sulfoaluminate (CSA) cement and specialized grout maybe added to an amount of water in a mixer. The CSA cement, specialized grout, and water may be blended to a smooth consistency. Lightweight aggregates (LWA) maybe added to form a mixture. The mixture may be poured into a mold, allowed the mixture to cure, and removed from the mold to form the lightweight concrete block. The lightweight concrete block may have a first side and a second side joined by a plurality of interposing walls, the interposing walls defining one or more inner cavities and one or more outer cavities. The lightweight concrete block may have features that allow for the insertion of fiberglass rebar to aide in stacking and filling to form a wall.

A method of forming a lightweight concrete comprising lightweight aggregates (LWA) made from recycled materials and the resulting composition. The lightweight concrete may be formed by adding calcium sulfoaluminate (CSA) cement and a specialized grout to an amount of water in a mixer, wherein a ratio of the water to the CSA cement is 1 quart to every 10 lbs of CSA cement. The CSA cement, specialized grout, and water may be blended to a smooth consistency. LWA may be added to the blended CSA cement, specialized grout, and water, wherein a ratio of the CSA cement to LWA is 60/40 by weight. The mixture of LWA, CSA cement, specialized grout, and water may be poured over a fiberglass rebar. The mixture may be allowed to cure and before being densified with a lithium densifier.

A pavement laying method and a polyurethane pavement coating are provided. The pavement laying method includes: providing a solid particle material; mixing a polyester polyol material and an isocyanate material into the solid particle material to form a mixed slurry; and laying the mixed slurry onto a pavement and solidifying the mixed slurry, so as to form a polyurethane pavement coating on the pavement. In addition, at least one of the polyester polyol material and the isocyanate material is derived from biomass resources.
