A method for correcting the tilt of adjacent concrete slabs on subsided ground and connected at a joint part by tie bars or dowel bars caused by the subsidence of the joint part. The method comprises pushing up a tilted concrete slab by: drilling an injection hole for injecting an expandable resin in one concrete slab at a point 10 to 200 cm away from the joint part and also in the other concrete slab at a point 10 to 200 cm away from the joint part, the point in the other concrete slab being on a line that is orthogonal to the joint part and has the point in the one concrete slab thereon; and simultaneously starting an operation of intermittently injecting an expandable resin from both of the injection holes wherein the expandable resin expands below both of the concrete slabs.

Methods and apparatus for repairing road surfaces mix aggregate and liquified crack sealer on demand into mastic material for direct delivery to the road surfaces. Aggregate flows from a tilted box of a dump truck into a hopper and is conveyed by an auger into a tubular horizontal chamber. Liquified crack sealer is deliverable from a tank to the road surface or into the tubular horizontal chamber where it is mixed with the aggregate by a device into mastic material which is pushed through a vertical opening for delivery directly to the road surfaces. The frame which supports the hopper, conveyor, tank, and tubular horizontal chamber is movably supported on the road surfaces and is hitched to the dump truck.

An apparatus for heating asphalt is used with a container storing a gaseous fuel under pressure. The apparatus includes one or more heaters, each of which includes an elongate infrared emitter, an elongate burner tube, and a Venturi tube. The infrared emitter includes an elongate emitter surface for emitting infrared radiation at the material when the infrared emitter is heated. The burner tube is coupled to the infrared emitter, and defines a burner tube interior for distributing an air-fuel mixture to a plurality of burner tube apertures for distributing the air-fuel mixture over a burner tube outer surface disposed opposite to and spaced apart from the infrared emitter. The Venturi tube is for mixing the fuel from the container with air to create the air-fuel mixture, and supplying the air-fuel mixture to the burner tube interior.

A method for repairing/treating a pavement with the use of a rheologically modifier is disclosed. The method comprises first applying a layer of a rheologically modifier composition comprising a rejuvenating component onto the top surface of the pavement that needs repair, then applying a second layer of an asphaltic binder onto the rheologically modifier layer. The second layer of asphaltic binder effectively seals the rheologically modifier layer with the rejuvenating component for intimate contact with the top pavement surface, thus penetrating the surface layer to extend the life of the pavement surface, arresting the deterioration of visco-elastic properties and restoring some of those properties.

A system and method for filling pot holes. The system includes transferring aggregate from an aggregate tank. Activator is likewise transferred from an activator tank. The activator is mixed with the aggregate to form a homogenized mixture. A liquid is introduced into a homogenized mixture to form a slurry and then a pot hole filler. The pot hole filler is directed through an exit end of a mixing tube.

A method and system for in situ cross-linking of polymers, Bitumen, and other materials to produce arbitrary functional or ornamental three-dimensional features using electron beams provided by mobile accelerators comprises defining a desired pattern for imparting on a target area, mapping the target area, defining at least one discrete voxel in the target area according to the desired pattern to be imparted on the target area, assigning an irradiation value to each of the at least one discrete voxels, and delivering a dose of irradiation to each of the at least one discrete voxels according to the assigned irradiation value.

Disclosed herein is a method of resurfacing a sports court. This method involves applying a first adhesive to an existing sports court; curing the first adhesive to a tacky state; applying a thin fabric onto the first adhesive, wherein the thin fabric has a first side applied to the first adhesive and a second side opposite the first side and wherein the thin fabric is capable of releasing from the tacky state of the first adhesive; applying a second adhesive to the second side of the fabric; applying an elastic mat on top of the second adhesive, wherein the elastic mat has a first side applied to the second adhesive and a second side opposite the first side; and applying a sealer to the second side of the elastic mat.

A lifting system for a concrete component comprises a void former incorporated into the component during casting and which provides within the component a void which receives a locking pin of a lifting anchor assembly which is locked within the void by rotation of a locking pin. The lifting anchor assembly has a visual indicator to indicate when the pin is in its locked condition within the void, and a pivotal lifting shackle of the assembly is prevented from movement into a position in which lifting can take place until the pin is in its locked condition. Preferably a base of the void former is configured to retain components of a jacking system by which a concrete slab used for road repair can be jacked into a level configuration with the remainder of the roadway when it has been positioned by use of the lifting system.

A system for processing a pavement reinstatement includes a weighing apparatus (502) for measuring a mass of reinstatement material. A reinstatement apparatus (10) is adapted to receive reinstatement dimension information and reinstatement material information and adapted to determine a required reinstatement material mass, and to provide a target air voids content of the reinstatement. The reinstatement apparatus is optionally adapted to receive an indication of the mass measured by the weighing apparatus and the indication is a verification of the weighing apparatus having measured the required mass.

Provided are a textile-reinforced concrete road paving apparatus and a method of repairing concrete road pavement using the same. The textile-reinforced concrete road paving apparatus can minimize use of construction equipment by using the textile-reinforced concrete road paving apparatus integrally formed to consecutively cut concrete, dispose a reinforcement material, and construct a repaired cross section so as to reduce a construction period, thereby remarkably reducing construction costs. Further, a textile grid reinforcement material, which is a noncorroding reinforcement material, is applied to form the repaired cross section of the concrete road pavement so as to prevent concrete from being detached due to corrosion. Further, a textile reinforced grid is precisely disposed at a required position, and thus the thicknesses of the primary and secondary concrete pavement are precisely adjusted, and thus construction precision can be increased.
