Embodiments of the present techniques provide an adhesive tape roll that comprises a plurality of detachable segments. The detachable segments comprise a pull tab to help separate a protective liner layer, or backing layer/backing liner, from the adhesive tape at the point of use. Thus, a user may detach a segment from the roll, and then use the pull tab to separate the adhesive tape from the backing liner.

A layered architectural water pervious concrete is provided. The concrete assembly includes a first layer of water pervious concrete preferably having 15%-25% void space capable of channeling water to the ground and underlying water table. Poured upon the pervious concrete layer, is a non-pervious concrete layer. Joints are formed through the non-pervious concrete layer, which preferably penetrates into the pervious concrete layer at least inch. Water flows from the top surface of the concrete assembly through the joints and into the porous concrete layer for distribution to the ground below.

A high-quality multilayer thermoplastic-resin-reinforced sheet material having excellent mechanical properties and drapeability in which a thermoplastic resin excellent in recycling efficiency and shock resistance is used as a matrix. A thermoplastic-resin multilayer reinforced molding formed of the multilayer thermoplastic-resin-reinforced sheet material, in which the high quality and the mechanical properties are maintained. The multilayer thermoplastic-resin-reinforced sheet material (11) is formed by stacking thermoplastic-resin-reinforced sheet materials (21A) to (21D) each formed of a reinforcing-fiber sheet material (31), consisting of a plurality of reinforcing fibers (31f) arranged in a predetermined direction in a sheet-like structure, and a thermoplastic-resin sheet material (41) joined to a surface of the reinforcing-fiber sheet material (31), and stitching them together with an integration thermoplastic-resin fiber tow (51) composed of the same material as the thermoplastic-resin sheet material (41). The reinforcing-fiber sheet materials (31) are stacked such that their reinforcing directions are multiaxial.

An engineered wood panel assembly includes a first layer including a first set of billets that abut against each other along a lengthwise edge of the billets. Each billet includes one or more joints connecting adjacent sheets within the billet, and the joints are oriented perpendicular to the lengthwise edge. Each of the sheets in the first layer includes at least one ply comprising wood grain oriented in a first direction. A second layer including a second set of billets of sheets is layered on top of the first layer. Each billet in the second set includes one or more additional joints that are oriented perpendicular to a lengthwise edge of the second set of billets. The additional joints in the second layer are offset from the joints in the first layer, and each of the sheets in the second layer includes at least one ply having wood grain oriented in a second direction. Additionally, a third layer including a third set of billets of sheets may be layered on top of the second layer.

A hybrid composite panel suitable for forming a container includes a wood layer and a fiber-reinforced polymer composite layer having a sensor system embedded therein. The wood layer is laminated plywood that includes at least one of hard and soft wood, solid-sawn tongue-and-groove hardwood planks, and partially laminated solid-sawn hardwood.
