A stake consists of two planar panels joined on a longitudinal axis and angularly disposed with respect to one another. Lower portions of the panels converge to a tip on the axis, and an axial tang is formed at the top of the stake. An inwardly directed flange is formed near the top of each panel, the flanges being disposed substantially in a common plane, generally perpendicular to the panels. The flanges and the tang facilitate driving of the stake into a substrate by use of a power hammer, and the driven stake resists both upward and lateral displacement. It is especially adapted for the securement of edging for restraining paving and landscaping materials.

Provided is an asphalt reinforcement, and more particularly, to an asphalt reinforcement, which is applicable to asphalt pavement without tack coat application and curing processes, and a method of repairing asphalt pavement using the same. The asphalt reinforcement of the present invention includes: a reinforcing fiber layer having a plurality of holes formed therein; a film layer, which is breathable or non-breathable, includes at least one resin selected from the group consisting of polypropylene, polyethylene, ethylene vinyl acetate, polyethylene elastomers, polypropylene elastomers, polybutene, and thermoplastic polyurethane, and has a melting point of 90° C. to 130° C.; and a nonwoven fabric layer, which is disposed between the reinforcing fiber layer and the film layer, is impregnated with an asphalt emulsion, and has a melting point of 50° C. to 130° C.

A millable, recyclable, paving fabric interlayer system for the construction and repair of roadways and other load-bearing surfaces and method of using such a fabric is disclosed. The paving fabric includes thermoplastic materials and is combined with asphalt cement to provide a flexible, stress relieving, waterproofing layer for roadways. Because of the thickness and asphalt cement absorption of the fabric, the system provides a stress absorbing interlayer to resist fatigue and reflective cracking in pavements. The system also acts as an effective moisture barrier due to the enhanced capability to retain sufficient asphalt cement when paved onto a roadway. Such a system has the required strength and elongation to be installed on smooth or milled surfaces yet is easily milled and recycled owing to the uniquely engineered tensile and tear strengths of the fabric.

The present disclosure provides various aspects for mobile and automated processing utilizing additive manufacturing and the methods for their utilization. In some examples, the mobile additive manufacturing apparatus may perform surface treatments that support the building of walls. Other examples may involve the support of creating and repairing advanced roadways.

An elongated polymeric impermeable geomembrane sheet having opposing first and second surfaces with a plurality of spaced-apart first projections extending from the first surface, said first projections each tapering to a pointed apex at a distal extent, which first projections for mechanically engaging a synthetic drainage geomesh sheet overlaid by a tufted geotextile sheet and in contact with adjacent fill materials within the aggregation, whereby the aggregation has increased resistance to shear failure of the aggregation of fill materials and reducing stabilization failures of materials aggregation applications. A ground covering closure system is disclosed.

A pavement slab assembly for a route for vehicles driving or standing on a surface of the route. The pavement slab assembly consists at least partially of pavement material and has a cable bearing element. Electric line or lines extend(s) along or under the surface of the pavement slab assembly. The cable bearing element is embedded in the pavement material of the pavement slab assembly and is arranged within the pavement slab assembly such that the cable bearing element is enclosed by the pavement material. The invention also relates to a method of building a pavement slab assembly, a route for vehicles, and a method for building a route for vehicles.
