A monitoring method and system are present for process control of surface treatment associated with material deposition on the surface, which provides for achieving and maintaining a desired (according to design rules) geometrical profile of the surface while being coated by certain substance/material. The technique of the invention provides for remotely and fully-automatically monitoring/verifying the geometrical profile of the surface being treated, and providing the control/verification data for executing local corrections. The technique can be applied to various geometrical profiles such as planar geometry, round/curved surface of a predetermined curvature, multi-portions surface with predetermined angular orientations of the multiple portions (e.g. 90 degree angles at corners of a room).

A system for installing pre-painted moldings. The system includes pre-painted moldings each configured to be fastened to a wall by fasteners. The system also includes a caulk material, filler material, concealer material, and touchup paint each color matched to the paint color applied to the moldings. The caulk material is configured to fill a gap defined between each of the moldings and the wall to which the molding is fastened. The filler material is configured to fill a gap defined between any abutting portions of the moldings. The concealer material is configured to conceal any surface disturbances caused by the installation of the fasteners. The touchup paint is configured to adhere to the paint pre-painted on the moldings. The system may also include a marker configured to apply a coating color matched to the paint applied to the moldings, a scraping tool, and/or a buffing tool.

Features for formliners to form a decorative pattern in a curable material and methods of using the same are disclosed. An improved formliner is disclosed with substantially seamlessly connecting components that reduces the need for using adhesives for interconnecting a plurality of formliners in a pattern. Further, the formliner is configured to reduce and/or substantially eliminate visible seams in order to create a more natural appearance in a finished product of the curable material.

The present invention disclosed a wall-cloth with a laminated core coated through infiltration, a method for making the same and a method for an object, wherein, the wall-cloth comprises a prime coating layer, a laminated core complex covered on the prime coating layer; wherein the laminated core complex comprises a second coating layer which can be transparent or semi-transparent and a fiber sheet encapsulated in the second coating layer; and wherein, the fiber sheet possesses a network structure formed by fiber or fibers, and the second coating layer permeates into the meshes of the network structure. According to the present invention, the texture is controlled, because the fiber sheet can be produced according to a standard and large scale method to obtain identical texture. Meanwhile, the wall-cloth made by the present invention has excellence breathability and great gas transmission.

A sprayed-in-place framed wall is disclosed, comprised of a cementitious face and backing layers and a polyurethane foam insulation layer that bonds the cementitious layers to a separate wall frame. Stationary walls are constructed by spraying the materials against one-sided, vertical wall forms positioned around an erected, exterior wall frame. The cementitious materials are restrained by stays. The wall forms may have indentations to enable the resulting wall face to have protrusions such as moulding, bands, quoins and cornices, which may be a different color that the surrounding flat wall face.

Disclosed are methods to produce composite materials, which contain customized mixes of nano- and/or micro-particles with tailored electromagnetic spectral properties. In some defense-related applications, the use of such materials enables an improved spectral match between different structures, such as vehicles or buildings with the surrounding environment at least in the VIS and NIR wavelength range. This can camouflage the structures, and reduce the detectability thereof by ground-, air- or space-based multi-spectral long-range imaging systems, including aircrafts, drones, and satellites, and thus, generally delay, complicate, or eliminate detection or classification of the camouflaged structures.
