Patent ID: 10328671

Abstract:
A composite structure having a solid-phase concrete base-substrate component; a fibrous component that is a plurality of polypropylene fibers embedded into and thereby mechanically attached to the solid-phase concrete base-substrate component, wherein the fibers extend from within the concrete base-substrate component and out of the concrete base-substrate component through an exterior surface of the concrete base-substrate component; a polyvinylchloride-adhesive layer component having a first and second surface, wherein the polyvinylchloride-adhesive layer component first surface is in contact with and adhesively attached to the fibrous component, and wherein the polyvinylchloride-adhesive layer second surface is in contact with and adhesively attached to a first surface of a polyvinylchloride or polyvinylchloride-alloy interior sheet; and a polyester reinforcing component having a first and second surface, wherein the polyester reinforcing component first surface is in contact with a second surface of the polyvinylchloride or polyvinylchloride-alloy interior sheet, and wherein the polyester reinforcing component second surface is in contact with a first surface of a polyvinylchloride or polyvinylchloride-alloy exterior sheet.
