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 prefabricated superimposed recycled lump concrete slab includes a fresh concrete, demolished concrete lumps, and a reinforcement fabric at a lower part of the slab. The demolished concrete lumps can protrude from the fresh concrete, but a protruding height is no more than 25 mm, and the protruding height is controlled by assembling molds. The assembling molds comprise casting molds and a height-controlling cover plate, reinforcement-locating slots are reserved on side molds of the casting molds, and a vertical position of the height-controlling is determined by using screws, position-controlling nuts and gaskets of different thicknesses, which are located at four corners of the casting molds. A construction method of the prefabricated superimposed recycled lump concrete slab is also provided.

A regenerated block concrete prefabricated laminated slab includes a new concrete, waste concrete blocks, and a steel bar mesh on a bottom of the slab. The waste concrete blocks can protrude out from a surface part of the new concrete, but a protruding height is no more than 25 mm, and the protruding height is limited by an assembling die. The assembling die comprises a casting die and a height-limiting cover plate, a side die of the casting die is reserved with a steel bar positioning hole, and a vertical position of the height-limiting cover plate is positioned at four corners of the casting die through screws, limiting nuts and gaskets of different thicknesses. A manufacturing process of the regenerated block concrete prefabricated laminated slab is also provided.

In some embodiments, a cured panel is formed from a curable material and comprises at least one enhancing material applied to a surface of the panel or embedded in a surface of the panel. In some embodiments, a method comprises providing a form liner having an enhancing material oriented on or attached to the form liner, and then providing a curable material. In some embodiments, a method comprises providing a form liner having at least one cavity containing a curable mixture, and then providing a curable material.

The present invention provides a countertop (10) comprising a backer sheet (16) of a relatively lightweight, rigid material; an outer layer (14) of agglomerated stone disposed on a top surface (16a) of the backer sheet (16) to create a central portion (14a) of the countertop; and an outer layer (14) of agglomerated stone disposed on a side surface (16c, 16d) of the backer sheet (16) to create an edge portion (14b, 14c) of the countertop (10); wherein the central portion (14a) and edge portion(s)(14b, 14c) form a one piece agglomerated stone layer (14). The present invention also provides a moulding process to manufacture the agglomerated stone countertop (10).

Provided is a system and method for building retaining and freestanding stone walls, wherein wall panels are made, then transported to an installation location, and installed on site quickly and efficiently. The wall panels are made in wall frames that use joint forms to provided wall panels having sides that reliably and securely mater together. The joint forms include zig-zag like connections and a structural interlocking key, engineered to prevent vertical and lateral deformation of the assembled wall. Drainage and strengthening materials are built into the wall panels while in the wall frames. A lifting apparatus is also provided that engages a wall panel through openings formed in a rear side, and stably lifts and flips the wall panel from a facedown orientation to an upright orientation.
