20170233977 · 2017-08-17 · ·

A corrosion-resistant cover system, having a corrosion-resistant cover structured and configured to be arrangeable around an object having one or more metallic surfaces that are susceptible to corrosion. The corrosion-resistant cover is operable to provide increased corrosion resistance to the object by preventing contact between the one or more metallic surfaces and ambient conditions exterior to the corrosion-resistant cover.

Method of installing fiber liner for large tunnel repair

A method for repairing in-ground tunnel structures including the steps of: a) cleaning the structure to be lined; b) preparing a sheet of composite liner onto a roller; c) applying resin to the wall of the tunnel; d) dispensing said sheet into said resin using said roller and e) bedding the liner composite into the applied resin. The process can then be repeated along the length of the tunnel in a sheet by sheet fashion.

20220170369 · 2022-06-02 · ·

A method for waterproofing a substrate includes steps of: attaching a separation sheet to the surface of the substrate; and attaching a waterproofing membrane sheet to a surface of the separation sheet by a plurality of adhesive elements having a first and second major adhesive surface, wherein the separation sheet is a non-woven fabric sheet, or an embossed polyolefin membrane sheet and each adhesive element includes an adhesive layer composed of a pressure sensitive adhesive.

In-situ barrier device with internal injection conduit

The present invention provides a multi-layer barrier assembly or device for post-installation injection of a resin, grout, or other fluid. The barrier device comprises first and second layers defining an intermediate open-matrix layer, and at least one injection conduit member in parallel orientation with respect to the first and second layers and having openings for injecting fluid into the intermediate open-matrix layer. The injection conduit may be located between and in parallel orientation with respect to the first and second layers, along an edge of the first and/or second layers, along an outer face of the first layer (if the first layer is a woven or nonwoven fabric), or at any combination of these locations, to enable fluid to be conveyed into the intermediate open-matrix layer. The invention also provides for use of a gel activator within the barrier device cavity, such as pre-installed on open-matrix structure which used for separating the first and second layers of the barrier device, such that a highly flowable injection fluid can be introduced into the device, and its gelation or hardening will be initiated or accelerated by the presence of the gel activator. This will allow for low power grout pumps to be used and facilitate the sealing of fine cracks in the surrounding concrete.
