A float sprayer system for efficiently dispensing a fluid from a float to treat a curing material. The float sprayer system generally includes a float for smoothing a curing material and at least one sprayer on the float; with the at least one sprayer being adapted to dispense a fluid from the float. A pump is fluidly connected to the at least one sprayer by a conduit which extends through a handle that is connected to the float. The pump is adapted to transfer the fluid from the fluid source through the conduit to be dispensed by the at least one sprayer on the float. A valve on the handle may be utilized to control flow through the conduit within the handle, and a mobile device may be utilized to control the pump.

A machine for resurface existing roads is disclosed. The machine may include a premixed stress absorbing membrane interlayer (SAMI) material distribution component configured to distribute a premixed SAMI material on an existing road. The distributed premixed SAMI material may include a mixture and/or combination of binding material and pre-cut fiber material. The machine may also include a channel positioned adjacent and downstream of the premixed SAMI material distribution component. The channel may be configured to supply an asphalt mixture directly over the premixed SAMI material. Additionally, the machine may include a screed positioned adjacent the channel The screed may be positioned to contact the asphalt mixture.

The invention relates to a method for producing a polyurethane flooring (129) for a sports field (136), the method comprising: providing (502) reactive components for producing polyurethane, the reactive components comprising an A component (902) being a polyol mixture and a B component (904) being an isocyanate mixture and water (914), the B component comprising: 2,2 Methylendiphenyldiisocyanate (922); diphenylmethane-2,4-diisocyanate (924); diphenylmethane-4,4-diisocyanate (926); and isocyanate prepolymer (932); mixing (504) the reactive components for generating a liquid polyurethane reaction mixture (129); applying (506) the polyurethane reaction mixture (128) to a ground (103) of the sports field before chemical reactions in the reaction mixture have generated a solid polyurethane foam, the polyurethane foam after its solidification to be used as the polyurethane flooring.

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 cold planer machine may include a frame, a ground engaging member, a retracting vertical actuator system to raise and lower the frame, and a housing. The housing includes a vertical wall movable relative to the frame and a position detector to determine a relative vertical distance between the vertical wall and the frame. A drum in the housing is connected to the frame and rotates about a drum axis to plane the road surface. A spray bank disposed inside the housing is arranged to spray a fluid at the drum. A controller is configured to actuate fluid spray via the spray bank based at least in part on determining that the relative vertical distance is above a first threshold height value.

A system and method for the application of friction-modifying coatings to roadways, walkways, pathways and other areas subject to vehicular, human or animal traffic, the system and method comprising the controlled, simultaneous application of binder and filler to a surface of a substrate, using a mobile device which passes over the substrate as the binder and filler are being applied. The system includes a frame coupled to a vehicle. A spray bar is mounted on the frame and includes an array of spray nozzles coupled to a resin container.
