Monolithic Surface Ornamentation Of Pre-Cast Reinforced Concrete Wall

View page
US Patent:
47691913, Sep 6, 1988
Filed:
Sep 23, 1986
Appl. No.:
6/910548
Inventors:
Silvio Diana - Alexandria VA
International Classification:
B28B 108
B28B 132
B29C 3912
B29C 4108
US Classification:
264 25
Abstract:
A reinforced concrete wall, such as a road barrier or barricade, has a monolithic surface ornamentation thereon constituted by pigmented cements and grooves simulating mortar joints. In the horizontally oriented top portions of the wall where the pigmented cements are substantially thicker than the layers of pigmented cements monolithically joined to the vertical oriented portions of the wall so that these portions, which are subject to chipping and the like during handling and use will retain their aesthetically pleasing appearance. In the molding process, ribs on the mold surface which will form the grooves have a retardant applied thereto so that the cement forming the mortar joint will set at a slower rate than the rest of the body of the concrete wall and when removed from the mold can be brushed. When the wall is in the form of a road barrier, the ends are provided with a conical projection and a conical recess, respectively, to provide coupling between adjacent wall units.

Precast Building Structure And Method Of Assembly

US Patent:
41589416, Jun 26, 1979
Filed:
Mar 23, 1978
Appl. No.:
5/889320
Inventors:
Silvio Diana - Alexandria VA
International Classification:
E04G 2114
US Classification:
52741
Abstract:
There is disclosed a novel precast building structure system for a polygonal building, preferably a twelve-sided building structure. In particular, the precast structures are constituted by four basic units namely, a system of central core elements, a floor panel system constituted by essentially identical precast concrete floor elements, a plurality of like numbered wall elements which may have openings of various kinds for doors, windows, etc. , and a plurality of roof panel elements corresponding in number to the number of wall panels and floor panels but staggered in relation to the wall panels and juxtaposed over the floor panels. The wall panels rest on the piers and are secured via weld plates and at spaced points to the ends of the floor panels. The floor panels and the roof panels incorporate a unique T-beam construction which in conjunction with the integrally cast complementary pairs of triangularly shaped floor and/or roof panel portions, is reinforced with steel. The roof panels include a beam portion and an integrally cast pair of angled flange portions, the angle being proportional to the pitch of the roof and the number of sides (which determine the included angle between adjacent wall panels) of the building.
