Method for creating an infrastructure
Abstract
A method for creating an infrastructure especially useful for construction projects requiring large amounts of filler material, comprising: (a) creating blocks made of compressed refuse; (b) reinforcing each block with a flexible sheet (e.g. plastic sheet, or e.g. plastic or metal network) or a plastic or metal band, or a combination thereof, wrapped tightly around said block; (c) arranging said blocks of compressed refuse one above the other, and/or one beside the other within a mold, upon a concrete floor or upon a plurality of spacing element which allow for the flow of molten concrete under said blocks, and spacing said blocks of compressed refuse a predetermined distance from the interior walls of said mold; (d) casting concrete in said mold containing said blocks to a predetermined height above the uppermost surface of said blocks.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 ) A method for creating an infrastructure especially useful for construction projects requiring large amounts of filler material, comprising:
a) creating blocks made of compressed refuse; b) reinforcing each block with a flexible sheet or band, or a combination thereof, wrapped tightly around said block; c) arranging a plurality of said blocks of compressed refuse one above the other, and/or one beside the other within a mold, upon a concrete floor or upon a plurality of spacing element which allow for the flow of molten concrete under said blocks, and spacing said blocks of compressed refuse a predetermined distance from the interior walls of said mold; d) casting concrete in said mold containing said blocks to a predetermined height above the uppermost surface of said blocks.
2 ) A method for creating an infrastructure, according to claim 1 , wherein the blocks made of compressed refuse are spaced apart within the mold, creating at least one continuous vertical space extending from the bottom to the top of said mold, and from one mold wall to an opposite mold wall, for creating at least one interior concrete wall within the mold during the pouring of the molten concrete.
3 ) A method for creating an infrastructure, according to claim 1 , comprising casting at least one intermediate horizontal layer of concrete upon predetermined layers of blocks.
4 ) A method for creating an infrastructure, according to claim 1 , comprising an additional step comprising affixing hollow tubes that extend from the inner surface of the cement wall to the exterior surface of said wall, thus creating holes for releasing gases produced as a result of the decomposition of the refuse.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
