Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 17
Claim 1
Independent Claim
38 words
An asbestos-free, fiber-reinforced cementitious product comprising a major portion of a cementitious material and a reinforcing quantity of a fibrous material including a sufficient amount of eucalyptus fibers to provide a final product having improved bending strength characteristics.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
38 words
An asbestos-free, fiber-reinforced cementitious product comprising a major portion of a cementitious material and a reinforcing quantity of a fibrous material including a sufficient amount of eucalyptus fibers to provide a final product having improved bending strength characteristics.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
33 words
A cementitious product as set forth in claim 1 wherein said eucalyptus fibers are present in an amount of from 3% to 10% by weight based on the total weight of the product.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
35 words
