A board consisting at least of a substrate formed at least of a gypsum-based and/or cement-based basic material layer. The board is provided with a chamfer extending through the basic material layer.

A concrete panel board is provided. The panel board includes: a substrate board; a primer layer applied to the substrate; a thinset mortar layer applied to the primer layer; a plaster layer applied to the thinset mortar layer; and a sealant layer applied to the plaster layer.

A ballistic panel formed with a ballistic material, the panel comprising: a panel with a filled void; wherein the filled void is filled with a ballistic replacement material; and wherein the filled void exhibits ballistic properties equivalent to the ballistic panel formed with the ballistic material; wherein the ballistic replacement material and the ballistic material comprise between about 1121 kg/cubic meter (about 70 pounds per cubic foot) and about 1442 kg/cubic meter (about 90 pounds per cubic foot); and wherein the ballistic replacement material and the ballistic material comprise: about 1 part by mass Portland cement; about 0.5 to 1.5 part by mass fine aggregate; and about 0.0005 to 0.05 part by mass air entrainment additive; about 0.005 to 0.15 part by mass fiber; about 0.005 to 0.05 part by mass aluminum hydroxide and about 0.005 to 0.05 part by mass calcium phosphate.

A decorative concrete with a very uniform finish surface and a method of fabricating the same is disclosed. A concrete mixture is poured over a subgrade which defines an exposed surface. The exposed surface is finished with any of several techniques, and the surface is then worked with an abrasive material, and additional techniques are used to color and seal the concrete.

A wall of a building structure, the wall comprising: inner and outer face surfaces formed from glass fibre reinforced board; a support structure comprising one or more rigid components positioned between the inner and outer face surfaces; and a quantity of low-density cellular lightweight concrete (CLC) which substantially fills the space between the inner and outer face surfaces.

Disclosed is a method for producing a plate, wherein liquid, ultra-high-strength concrete is introduced into a formwork, which delimits a cavity, the cavity consisting of a first, flat region and a second, flat region adjoining the first region, the first and second regions having the same depth and being inclined with respect to one another at a bend angle of 120° to 170°. The concrete is introduced, in particular pumped, into the formwork from the bottom, rises in the formwork and hardens in the formwork in the shape of a bent plate.

A floor panel includes hollow floor connector blocks that are reinforced with anchor pins embedded in cementitious material in the body of the panel. The floor connector blocks have two internal plates, which have holes that guide a tapped-head bolt. The tapped-head bolt has a threaded hole in its head and a bottom end thread that are used as anchoring sites respectively for upper and lower wall panels, which are also equipped with connector blocks.

An ultra-stable structural laminate with fire resistance and a lateral nail pull strength from 44 to 300 pounds of force and an insulation R value from 1 to 40, the ultra-stable structural laminate of a cementious material with a nano-molecular veneer and a foam component catalytically reacted into an expanded closed cell foam having a thickness from ⅛.sup.th inch to 8 inches, a density from 1.5 pounds/cubic foot to 3 pounds/cubic foot that self-adheres to the cementitious material forming an ultra-stable structural laminate with fire resistance and a lateral nail pull strength from 44 pounds to 300 pounds of force, an insulation R value from 1 to 40, a resistance to seismic impact for earthquakes over 3.1 on the Richter Scale, a break point from 7 lbs/inch to 100 lbs/inch; and a resistance to wind shear equivalent to a 15 mph downburst.

A stripping lifting insert is provided for precast insulated panels having an insulating material layer between opposing wythes, the insulating material layer, wythes, and precast insulated panel having respective widths. The stripping lifting insert includes an elongated connecting shaft having a shaft axis. First and second spaced apart wythe engagement members are connected to the connecting shaft in spaced apart relation to each other. Each wythe engagement member includes a hub and a plurality of three or more protrusions connected to and emanating from hub. Each of the protrusions extending radially outward from the shaft axis. The wythe engagement members have a height less than the width of the wythes, whereby each wythe engagement member can be completely embedded in a respective wythe of the precast insulated panel. A precast insulated panel and a method of making a precast insulated panel are also disclosed.

The present disclosure provides skirt panel systems for a post-frame building, comprising: one or more precast skirt panels, each of the precast skirt panels having an outer surface to be oriented away from the interior of the post-frame building, an inner surface to be oriented towards the interior of the post-frame building, a top, a bottom, and two opposing ends, each of the precast skirt panels configured for attachment to at least one post of the post-frame building, and each of the precast skirt panels configured for abutting each other end-to-end to form a skirt wall on the post-frame building; and an attachment apparatus for attaching the one or more precast skirt panels to the at least one post. The present disclosure also provides methods for constructing a post-frame building using such systems.
