Claim:
1. A gas pressure bearing element, comprising: a housing including a housing element with recesses configured in one of plural surfaces of the housing element, wherein the housing element is closed by a cover at an open side of the housing element, wherein the recesses are defined by intermediary walls or other protrusions and define first intermediary spaces between the intermediary walls or the other protrusions, wherein the cover is at least formed in sections by an open pore reinforcement mat provided with a cured encasement compound, wherein the open pore reinforcement mat is fixated relative to the intermediary walls and relative to the other protrusions by an adhesive made from a synthetic resin provided between the housing element and a lower side of the reinforcement mat, wherein the reinforcement mat is drenched with the cured encasement compound that forms a layer of the cured encasement compound on an upper side of the reinforcement mat, wherein the encasement compound penetrates the reinforcement mat but does not penetrate the intermediary spaces of the housing element, wherein the encasement compound is made from the synthetic resin, wherein the cured encasement compound on the upper side of the reinforcement mat has a flat surface that is machined and forms a bearing surface for the gas pressure bearing element, wherein the bearing surface includes a plurality of gas outlet nozzles which are formed by micro holes penetrating through the cover, and wherein the micro holes are provided at locations under which the first intermediary spaces are arranged below the cover, which first intermediary spaces form channels for a pressurized gas supply for the gas outlet nozzles.
