Abstract

Abstract A concrete structural member of improved stability is produced by preparing a concrete composite layer having a concrete layer on one side and an aggregate layer on the other side thereof, impregnating the composite layer with a monomer, thermally or catalytically polymerizing the monomer impregnated in the composite layer, and thereafter placing fresh concrete on the aggregate layer side of the polymer-impregnated composite layer.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 143 words
A method for the manufacture of a concrete structural member, which comprises: forming in a mold a concrete layer of cement concrete of a prescribed thickness and with an upper surface, placing aggregate on the entire upper surface of said concrete layer while said concrete layer is in an uncured state thereby giving rise to a composite concrete layer consisting of said concrete layer and an aggregate layer partly embedded therein, curing and drying said composite concrete layer and subsequently thoroughly impregnating said composite concrete layer with a monomer, polymerizing said monomer impregnated in said composite concrete layer to form a concrete member, and placing concrete on the aggregate layer side of said conctete member possessing said polymer-impregnated composite concrete layer to form said concrete structural member with said polymer-impregnated composite concrete layer forming a protective surface layer for said concrete structural member.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 143 words
A method for the manufacture of a concrete structural member, which comprises: forming in a mold a concrete layer of cement concrete of a prescribed thickness and with an upper surface, placing aggregate on the entire upper surface of said concrete layer while said concrete layer is in an uncured state thereby giving rise to a composite concrete layer consisting of said concrete layer and an aggregate layer partly embedded therein, curing and drying said composite concrete layer and subsequently thoroughly impregnating said composite concrete layer with a monomer, polymerizing said monomer impregnated in said composite concrete layer to form a concrete member, and placing concrete on the aggregate layer side of said conctete member possessing said polymer-impregnated composite concrete layer to form said concrete structural member with said polymer-impregnated composite concrete layer forming a protective surface layer for said concrete structural member.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 21 words
The method according to claim 1, wherein said aggregate to be placed on said concrete layer is coated with adhesive agent.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 14 words
The method according to claim 1, wherein said monomer is methyl methacrylate or styrene.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 22 words
The method according to claim 1, wherein said aggregate is gravel which has a diameter roughly ranging from 5 to 30 mm.
