Abstract

A method of joining overlapping thermoplastic membrane components in which a first thermoplastic membrane component and a second thermoplastic membrane component are positioned in overlapping relationship between a pair of complementary molding surfaces, with at least one of the complementary molding surfaces being defined by an electrically conductive metal susceptor. Heat is generated in the metal susceptor and transferred by thermal conduction from the metal susceptor to overlapping portions of the first and second thermoplastic membrane components to locally melt and coalesce at least a portion of the thermoplastic material of the first thermoplastic membrane component and at least a portion of the thermoplastic material of the second thermoplastic membrane component. The molten thermoplastic material of the first and second thermoplastic membrane components forms a zone of coalesced thermoplastic material that, upon cooling, forms a solid weld joint that fusion welds the first and second thermoplastic membrane components together.

Abstract

This disclosure provides for new polyisocyanurate (PIR) foams that exhibit improved flame retardant properties and thermal barrier properties, and which can pass certain thermal barrier tests in the absence of a protective covering such as specified in the thermal barriers codes. In an aspect, it has been unexpectedly discovered that when a relatively high viscosity and high functionality polyisocyanate is used with a high aromatic content polyester polyol and an HFO and/or HCFO blowing agent, and a flame retardant compound, unexpectedly good flame retardant polyisocyanurate foams can be generated, for example, when a high A-side:B-side volume ratio (v:v) and a relatively high Isocyanate Index (ISO Index) are used in the process.

Abstract

A method of joining overlapping thermoplastic membrane components in which a first thermoplastic membrane component and a second thermoplastic membrane component are positioned in overlapping relationship between a pair of complementary molding surfaces, with at least one of the complementary molding surfaces being defined by an electrically conductive metal susceptor. Heat is generated in the metal susceptor and transferred by thermal conduction from the metal susceptor to overlapping portions of the first and second thermoplastic membrane components to locally melt and coalesce at least a portion of the thermoplastic material of the first thermoplastic membrane component and at least a portion of the thermoplastic material of the second thermoplastic membrane component. The molten thermoplastic material of the first and second thermoplastic membrane components forms a zone of coalesced thermoplastic material that, upon cooling, forms a solid weld joint that fusion welds the first and second thermoplastic membrane components together.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for producing a concrete slab made of prestressed concrete, the stressing elements of which comprise a plurality of rovings (6, 7), in particular carbon fiber rovings, extending through the concrete slab and running parallel to the slab plane, said method comprising the steps of: - producing formwork, which is delimited at the bottom by a production table (1) and through the side walls of which prestressed rovings (6, 7) extend, and - pouring concrete into the formwork and allowing the concrete to set, wherein the pouring of the concrete into the formwork comprises the dispensing of the concrete through one or a plurality of adjustable outlet openings (16) of a movable pouring container (10) while the pouring container (10) is moved over the length of the formwork, said one outlet opening extending over substantially the entire width of the formwork or said plurality of outlet openings being distributed over the width, wherein the fill level of the pouring container (10) is monitored during the dispensing and concrete is replenished from a reservoir (11), and wherein the amount of replenished concrete is controlled such that the fill level in the pouring container (10) is kept between a minimum value and a maximum value during the dispensing.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for producing a concrete slab from prestressed concrete, the tendons of which comprise multiple rovings (6, 7), in particular carbon-fibre rovings, that pass through the concrete slab parallel to the slab plane, comprising the steps of: - producing a formwork, which is bounded on the underside by a production table (1) and the side walls of which are passed through by prestressed rovings (6, 7), - pouring concrete into the formwork and allowing the concrete to set, and - detaching laterally protruding regions of the rovings (6, 7), wherein the side walls of the formwork are producing by heaping up on the production table (1) a powdery construction material that is hardened by addition of liquid, and moistening the heap (8).
