Abstract

The invention relates to a method for building in situ a continuous pavement. The method involves a volume of aggregates (2) having variable size and shape. Said aggregates are impregnated with resin and define inner spaces communicating with one another. The spaces are filled with hydraulic mortar material that compacts said volume to at least one height from the free surface upward, which is mechanized by means of a specular polish. Resins can instead be added to the aggregates or granulates using appropriate devices or by gravity. This results in a rigid tabular body, the surface thereof being evened out. The body has a flat area that is filled by pouring epoxy resin or the like or any other hydraulic material. Colorants can also be added.

PROCEDURE FOR MANUFACTURING "IN SITU" OF A

CONTINUOUS PAVEMENT

D E S C R I P C I Ó N

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

The present specification refers to a process for the "in situ" manufacture of a continuous pavement, whose purpose is to substantially achieve the improvement of the results of the known procedures and procedures known and currently used for the manufacture of continuous application pavements Conventional or punctual.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

This invention has its application within the industry dedicated to the manufacture of continuous pavements, formed by resin and aggregate mortars.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

At present, the existence of continuous pavements made "in situ" is known, which use independent pieces or not that constitute the pavement formwork in some way.

These pieces must be related to each other, and what is more important are necessarily placed on a flat, horizontal and non-deformable surface. All this implies, a surface conditioning assembly, and also the use of an etria granule of the aggregate that is used, as well as a high fluidity of the mortar to be able to introduce it in these pieces that form the formwork.

To achieve the fluidity of the mortar, a high relationship between water and cement is required that is detrimental to the corresponding mechanical strengths, impermeability, compactness, resistance to aggressive agents, etc.

All of them are operational inconveniences that are corrected with the floor of the invention that does not need formwork and formwork, or joints unless they are used to achieve decorative effects.

Furthermore, with the flooring object of the invention, it is not necessary to treat or shape the seating surface horizontally, since due to the constitution of the flooring, an aggregate of variable grain size and of different thicknesses is used.

As is known, in any mortar formed by a hydraulic binder and the addition of aggregates, even non-normal in the conformation of the traditional mortar, two kinds of stresses occur in its mass, hydraulic retraction and those caused by thermal changes that in Favorable circumstances can be combined by creating a sum of higher entity values. There are a number of conditions that always advise execution under construction soil mortar small thickness to not being able ga ^'rantizar Breakage due to the efforts of shrinkage or thermal expansion over the course of time.

These conditions include the following. Namely:

- Volumetric form. The laminar volumetric form of a thin layer of mortar considerably helps retraction due to the ratio of mortar volume and the surface of the piece.

- Dosage Due to the characteristics that a pavement must use for its use, resistance to wear, impact, frost, etc., it requires high binder dosages, thus increasing retractions.

Another very important condition already mentioned is the water-cement relationship, since for the implementation of a thin layer of mortar, a high fluidity is necessary that is achieved with the addition of water, increasing retractions. This fluidity is also necessary to cause the "wet" effect on the sub-base and ensure adhesion.

The aggregates, due to the results that are intended to be achieved when making a pavement of little thickness, paste compactness, resistance, malleability, the addition of fine aggregates is necessary, a condition that increases the retraction.

The influence of thermal changes is a An unfavorably influencing factor, due to the volumetric shape, the piece presenting a large surface area in relation to its volume, exposed to fast drying and rapid thermal gradients that combining its effects cause tangential stresses in the plane of adhesion, the result of which is the Take off from your sheet and warping.

From the above, it follows that:

- The hydraulic retraction is a reduction in the volume of the cement and water parts due to the forces that occur in the meniscus formed by the free water that do not combine with the cement.

These differential forces give a result that when the tensile strength of the mortar is exceeded, the breakage occurs, that is, the fissure.

Keep in mind that the resistance of mortars and concrete is weak, and therefore is weak, and therefore its breakage is easy.

The applicant is also aware of the existence of continuous pavements formed by resin and aggregate mortars, which form the mortar load applied to flat supports in a thin layer that can be up to one centimeter thick.

In general, they are usually self-leveling or extended mortars with trowel and their finish can be that of the extended mortar itself, or a finish with a subsequent polishing using machines to reduce, polish and polish

These mortars, formed by loads as mentioned above of aggregates, specifically inert aggregates, such as quartz, limestone, sticks, silica, etc., and resins, form a set in which inert aggregates are suspended. in the resin matrix.

In order to be able to handle and place it, it is necessary that the amount of resin used is greater than the volume of gaps in the load used, so that the particles of the load float in the medium or matrix of the resin.

Obviously, according to the procedure mentioned above, there are two fundamental problems. Namely:

1.- That the quantity of resin needed is greater than what would be convenient for price, since as it is known the resins are of high cost, compared with the price of the charges, and that the distribution of the charges in the mortar, whether they have a polished finish or not, it is not homogeneous, giving an irregular appearance.

2.- When the finish of the pavement surface is lowered, polished or polished with a machine for this application, the problem of the lack of homogeneity and the seat due to gravity of the load worsens the problem, because it forces a way to polish a top layer, which is only resin until the aggregates of the mortar load are sectioned, with the consequent loss of time, loss of the resin used uselessly and of course there is a lack of homogeneity in the surface aggregate distribution.

On the part of the applicant, there is knowledge of the attempt made by different manufacturers configured from sprinkling the loads above the resin already placed, in order to increase the amount of aggregate on the pavement surface, but it has been found that this operation It contemplates serious problems of homogeneity and needs a great deal of quality and specialization in the workforce.

All the aforementioned is stated as operational inconveniences that would be corrected from a pavement that allowed the manufacture "in situ" of a continuous pavement that was equipped with the ability to reduce the amount of resins necessary for the realization of the pavement itself, The fact that it is possible to avoid a surface layer of resins (without loads) is also indicated as suitable, in the upper part of the pavement constituted according to the procedure indicated as suitable, in order to improve the performance of the recess, polishing and sealing.

At the same time in the procedure object of the present specification, it would be desirable to avoid the lack of homogeneity in the distribution of the load by aesthetic effect once polished, and at the same time avoid the tensions due to chemical and thermal contractions by decreasing the amount of resin per unit volume.

It would also be desirable to have the possibility of execution of pavements of greater thickness, without any need to specially prepare the support, due to the lower cost of resin used, and to be able to give the surface of the pavement sectioned by the recess, the largest amount of load surface on the resin surface to improve abrasion resistance, decrease the effect of cracking on the resin surface (because it is smaller), and decrease the effect of possible burns on the resin because its surface area is also significantly smaller.

It would also be necessary to enable the maximum size of the load to be increased, since in the current mortar configuration procedures, the increase in aggregate size is detrimental to the viscosity and its working possibilities, increasing the segregation of the paste-aggregate by gravity.

It must be taken into account that, due to the high economic costs of current resins, the tendency at the moment of making pavements in which this type of products is used, is to make them with the minimum possible thickness, since approximately per millimeter thickness requires the use of a kilo of resin, varying according to the dosage of the mortar.

It should also be noted that pavements of this nature are usually 1 millimeter to 4 millimeters thick, which implies a perfect preparation of the support, in terms of flatness, increasing its costs.

Another factor that should also be taken into account It is susceptible to improvement, as the mixtures with resins are affected by volumetric contractions due to the chemical reaction, and also to volumetric contractions and dilations, due to the temperature always of much greater entity, than the mortar charges may have (limestone, quartz, silicas, etc.), so that the mass that has the greatest amount of load and least amount of resin will have better performance.

The applicant also knows means used for impregnation with Epoxy resin or the like of the aggregate used for the realization of the continuous pavement, such as spray guns, conventional or gravity rotary kneading machines, pouring a certain amount of Epoxy resin, of the appropriate fluidity, on a bed of aggregate distributed uniformly over the horizontal surface on which it is desired to incorporate the continuous pavement.

The applicant is aware of the usual use of various types of resins for the agglomeration of the aggregate used to constitute a continuous pavement, the composition of the said resins being a function of the nature of the aggregate and the desired characteristics for the pavement, knowing of this The use of Epoxy resin, polyester resin, methacrylate resin and the like, whose common characteristic is the ability to harden at room temperature with the help of a catalyst.

The procedures and machinery applicable to the roughing and polishing of the constituent aggregates of continuous pavements are also known, being able to used roughing machinery that works by wet way, with the gravel resulting from its operation forming a sludge, which is subsequently removed by conventional means, or by dry way, collecting waste by direct aspiration of them in the polishing area.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The procedure for the "in situ" manufacturing of a continuous pavement that the invention proposes, is configured in itself as an obvious novelty within its scope.

In a first embodiment, the process for the manufacture "in situ" of a continuous pavement, requires the fact of wetting the stone or aggregate that composes the mortar with resins of high mechanical resistance in such a way that an agglomerate of stones is formed with a thin film covering the stones and thus being adhered to each other with great resistance.

Performed this operation, the stone and resin conglomerate is composed of a monolithic block in which the tensile strength is given by the adhesion of the resins and especially when the stones are in contact with each other, which entails to which it is difficult to reduce its total volume or shrink, because this would have to produce tensions higher than the compressive strength of the stone, a tension that can never produce a hydraulic cement paste.

In a second phase, the filling the holes left by the stones with a hydraulic cement paste, water, and the additives necessary to fluidize it, so that the water-cement ratio is very low and penetrates perfectly by mechanical means, between the stones.

That is to say, a compact mortar of low water-cement ratio of very high mechanical performance is created, of impossible visible, homogeneous cracking, with coloring of the stone, without the possibility of deformation, both thermal and hydraulic, and that once polished, acquires A great aesthetic for its compactness, amount of stone in the mortar, homogeneity and very low ratio, water-cement.

This constitution can be introduced procedures and joints to beautify the result and differentiate colors, with formwork already designed for this purpose, changing the color of the crushed stone and filling all with the same colored or different cement, thus formed drawings.

Unlike a traditional mortar, by the procedure described, the following advantages are obtained:

- The water-cement ratio is greatly reduced, due to the fact that the maximum size of the aggregate, which is already placed, does not influence its commissioning.

- For this reason, it increases permeability, mechanical resistance to compression, flexure, abrasion and resistance to chemical agents. Another important feature of this pavement is due to its thickness, which can be any and variable, allows the existing supports to be leveled to any thickness, filling only with visible cements or resins, the first two centimeters visible, or higher, that later there are What to polish

Likewise, it is necessary to consider the possibility of creating a union at the interface, between the binder resin film that surrounds the stones and the part of cement that will later fill the gaps of the same, giving a degree of elasticity, sufficient to allow the capacity deformation of the assembly and that does not break against external stresses.

This deformability, is in the union of stones and hydraulic paste, but not in them, so that the resulting product is hard, main feature of any pavement.

According to the invention, the pavement comprises using a pre-crushed limestone aggregate previously wetted with resins of different elasticities so that once they are set they form a monolithic monoblock of adjustable elasticity, with some spaces or gaps being defined the aggregate that is filled with a hydraulic mortar of special characteristics, such as: high mechanical resistance, high compactness, low water / cement ratio, high abrasion resistance and coloring. The free and irregular surface of this formed block is polished with appropriate means, configuring a specular, smooth, compact granitic surface.

The support surface in a possible deformation does not transmit the stresses to the pavement since this due to its onolithism is floating.

The support surface, if wet, does not transmit moisture to the top layer because there is a hollow intermediate zone.

In a second embodiment, the process for the "in situ" manufacturing of a continuous pavement is constituted from a first stage, in which the application is applied on the support of an aggregate layer or load configured from being any crushed material of granular type size, that is 1/2 in diameter to 1/3 of the intended thickness of the pavement and its quality can be marble, limestone, glass, glass, etc., or organic materials, such as can be the nut shell, hazelnut, etc., provided that it meets the condition of inert material and is provided with the appropriate strength for the purpose pursued, regardless of whether it is decorative or technical.

In this placement of the crushing it is possible to make molds and drawings with the selected crushing, and the crushing in question will be impregnated with a thin film that wraps it completely configured as an epoxy resin or another that once solidified forms a monolithic assembly with great resistance to traction, perfectly tread and flat shaping according to the finishing surface of the future pavement.

This structure leaves some gaps between crushing that approximately in monogranulated sizes is usually 45% of the apparent volume of the structure.

In a second phase, a fine sand that will fill the gaps left by the first thick structure is spread on this surface of the crushed structure already solidified, the silica sand having decanted as appropriate characteristics for the purpose pursued, since under if it is sufficiently thin and once dry, by means of a scanning procedure, it can penetrate perfectly into the thick structure, significantly reducing the volume of holes in the final structure.

Obviously this procedure and in this embodiment, allows that with a relatively thick aggregate structure and subsequent filling - with another fine inert aggregate, it is possible to reduce to the maximum with the convenient granulometry studies, being able to reduce the gaps, which will later be filled with fluid resin, consequently achieving the effects of the aforementioned relationship in a suitable invention.

In a third phase, which is used in the second embodiment, a fluid resin is applied on the surface of the minimum hollow structure, already properly designed in terms of its viscosity and color, whose destination is to fill by casting, that is to say by gravity and in all its depth the section of the pavement, leaving the surface of the crushed almost ready for subsequent reduction, polishing and polishing, if you want to have this type of finish, or a granular surface by brushing.

With the embodiment described above, it has been verified experimentally on a continuous pavement of 1 centimeter thick, apart from all the improvements mentioned above, a reduction of resin that is found of 10 kg / m ^{2 currently} used, a 2 kg / m ² with the procedure described, that is to say a reduction of 80%, substantially substantial reduction.

The free and irregular surface of the floor thus obtained is polished by appropriate means, being configured as a smooth, bright and compact specular surface.

Obviously unlike the traditional mortars used so far, even those obtained by sprinkling the resin already placed, it is achieved that once the low viscosity binder resin is poured on the solid and monolithic structure of the loads or aggregates, a Brisk brushing, so that the surface to be polished are the crests of the aggregate itself, consequently taking advantage of the polishing performance and resin quality.

Also the surface sectioned by the recess is compact and homogeneous, and with the distribution of the aggregate placed beforehand and by the procedure of placing the aggregates and fillers of fines, the resin surface is minimized, being this It is a very important result, minimizing the defects of the resins, since these are easily scratched and can suffer deterioration or burns with the heat of a cigarette or cigarette butt.

The invention also contemplates the possibility of carrying out a modification of the temporal sequence that the process presents, being carried out in the same way as it describes the cohesion of the aggregate or similar by means of Epoxy resins or the like, eliminating the process by which the existing holes are filled in the structure thus constituted, by incorporating a sludge constituted by a suspension of aggregate of reduced granulometry, proceeding after the formation of the base of the pavement to a recess of the surface of the same, eliminating the edges and non-horizontal planes until achieving a flat surface with a proportion of holes defined by the regularity of the aggregate or solid bulk used.

In synthesis, in this option, the pouring of an Epoxy resin sheet or the like is made to fill the holes in the recessed surface, as well as to provide a homogeneous surface, which is subsequently polished and polished depending on the desired characteristics for the pavement obtained.

The first stage is the discharge ^x 'in situ "of a dry bulk solids, which has resistant appropriate chemical properties and, proceeding in the pouring step to the cohesionamiento aggregates or solid bulk, by impregnating the various constituent bodies the aggregates or bulk with a resin, regardless of whether this resin is Epoxy, polyester, methacrylate, etc., being able to permeate the constituent elements of aggregates or bulk by using a conventional rotary mixer or by gravity, which once properly mixed and homogenized extends over the surface to be paved until obtaining a solid and monolithic layer of a thickness according to the surface to be paved, which is capable of being subjected to different treatments, indicating that the layer solid and monolithic, it must have the smallest free gaps that can be found between the constituent bodies of the aggregates and bulk, which consequently leads to obtaining a coating with greater cohesion between the

^• constituent elements of the pavement, that is to say, aggregates or bulk, when these elements remain adhered to each other by means of the meniscus of adherent material that covers the context of its surface.

The aggregates or bulk can be configured by materials of different preferences, such as mineral materials, including marble, glass, granite, glass, etc., etc., or organic materials, such as coconut shell, pomace, nutshell, etc., but presenting all these materials as a common denominator is the fact that they are capable of adhesion to each other as they are conveniently surrounded by a layer of adherent.

It should be noted that the resins used as coating of aggregates or bulk are susceptible to hardening by polymerization, to room temperature with the help of a catalyst.

The coating thus constituted can have different qualities and colors and even different drawings, borders or any type of design, then a roughing operation is carried out until it reaches an approximate depth of 50% of the average diameter of the constituent elements of the aggregates or bulk, until obtaining a completely flat surface in each element of the aggregates or bulk, presenting a surface formed by 70% of aggregate and 30% of adherent material.

The surface roughing operations can be carried out by a wet and cold process with a water-cooled machine or by a hot and dry procedure by means of a machine that sucks the resulting powder and proceeds with forced ventilation.

Next, the filling of the honeycomb structure that makes up the pavement obtained is carried out, through the use of materials of different technical or aesthetic characteristics, until the last polishing and polishing operation is performed in order to improve the technical or decorative qualities of the pavement obtained .

In view of figures 1 and 2, it can be seen how the process for the "in situ" manufacturing of a continuous pavement is constituted from a pavement (1) formed by a volume of aggregate (2) defined by pieces of stone (3) of different thicknesses, the stone pieces (3) being impregnated with resin delimiting holes (4) incorporated between the pieces that are filled with mortar mass (5).

The floor (1) thus constituted, sits on an irregular base (6), and in addition to the mass or volume of aggregate a regular or irregular frame (7) can be placed, which configures an interior surface that can have different hue from the rest of the pavement

In a second embodiment, and following Figures 3, 4 and ^" 5, it can be seen that the continuous pavement is constituted from the application on the constituent support (11) of the aggregate or load layer, which may be manufactured in any crushed material of granular size, of adequate diameter and of appropriate thickness in accordance with the requested flooring, such as marble, limestone, glass, glass, etc., or of organic materials, such as shell of walnut, hazelnut, etc., provided that this material meets the conditions of being inert and having the appropriate strength for the intended purpose, decorative or technical.

In this placement or location of the crushing constituent of the layer of aggregate or load, fits the possibility of making molds and drawings with the chosen crushing, taking into account that the crushing constitutive of the aggregate or filler layer is impregnated with a thin film of epoxy resin or other, which envelops each constituent element of the aggregate completely, and a Once the resin is solidified, it sets up a monolithic assembly with great tensile strength, perfectly tread and with a conformation or flat configuration, according to the finishing surface of the future pavement, that is, each of the elements

(11) constituents of the aggregate are coated with a suitable resin forming a monolithic assembly leaving the aggregate assembly located on the surface (10).

Subsequently, the structure formed as a monolithic set, has holes between the crushed aggregate, which in approximately monogranulated sizes is usually 45% of the apparent volume of the structure, holes that in a second phase of the procedure are filled with a fine sand, preferably dry silica sand, which is incorporated through the gaps through the use of a scanning procedure, so that it penetrates perfectly into the thick structure, consequently reducing the volume of gaps in the final structure.

Once the second stage of the procedure has been carried out according to which the existing gaps have been reduced to a minimum, the application will be made on the surface of the structure of a fluid resin, provided with a suitable viscosity and color, in order to fill by casting, that is to say by gravity the possible voids existing in all its context, leaving the crushed surface practically prepared for its subsequent reduction, polished and polished.

Also in the invention it is contemplated to finish the granular surface with brushing, which will be configured as a specular, smooth, bright and compact surface.

Unlike the traditional mortars used so far, even the mortars obtained by sprinkling the resin already placed, the following advantages are obtained. Namely:

Once the low viscosity binder resin (13) has been poured onto the solid and monolithic structure of the faces or aggregates (11), an energetic brushing is carried out in such a way that the surface to be polished are the crests of the aggregate itself (11 ), thus taking better advantage of polishing performance and resin quality (13).

The surface sectioned by the recess is compact, homogeneous, with the distribution of the aggregate (11) reduced beforehand and by the procedure of placing the aggregates and fillers of the fines (12), the resin surface (13) is reduced at a minimum, this being important because the resins (13) are minimized in their defects, since as is known they are easily scratched and can be burned with the heat emanating from cigarettes or cigarette butts that can fall on their surface.

In synthesis, the invention presents an embodiment in a first phase of using aggregates coated with a suitable resin by configuring the aggregates (11) an appropriate thickness placed on the surface (10) forming a monobloc assembly. Subsequently, the gaps in ^• the set - piece of aggregates (11) placed on a surface (10) are filled by a sand fine of appropriate nature.

Subsequently, resin (13) is poured over the existing hollow theorists, leaving the set ready to be polished, scratched, polished, etc., and present the configured pavement.

In a third embodiment, the invention starts from the "in situ" pouring of a solid aggregate or bulk (21), of suitable resistant and chemical properties, and its cohesiveness is carried out by impregnating the aggregate or bulk (21) with an epoxy resin. , polyester resin, methacrylate resin or the like (23), the impregnation being achieved by incorporating the resins using a diffuser gun, conventional rotary kneading machine or, by gravity, giving rise to a rigid tabular body which is provided with a recess of its upper surface (22), in order to eliminate oblique edges and planes, achieving a flat surface, which is coated by pouring an epoxy resin or the like (23), hydraulic materials of the cement or Sorel cement type, magnesites or clays, optionally containing dyes, which provide a flat and continuous surface, which is optionally subjected to subsequent processes conventional polishing and polishing (24).

The process of lowering the upper surface (22) after the agglomeration by resins (23) of the aggregate or solid bulk (21) is carried out by machinery conventional, reducing its power to half the average diameter of the aggregate or solid bulk (21) used, resulting in a surface consisting of the mean flat sections of the particles of said aggregate or solid bulk (21) by the flat surface resulting from the reduction of the resins (23) that agglomerate said aggregate or solid bulk (21) and by the resulting flat surface.

The aggregate or solid bulk (21) has a suitable granulometric curve that guarantees the existence of a reduced amount of free holes or pores constituted by the volume determined between the external faces of the constituent particles of said aggregate or solid bulk (21).

The aggregate or solid bulk (21) may consist of mineral materials, such as marble, granite, glass or the like, as well as organic materials such as coconut husk, pomace, nutshell, all of them susceptible to form a monolithic layer by adhesion of the particles to each other by the incorporation of resins (23).

Epoxy resin, polyester resin, methacrylate resin or the like (23) have as a common feature that of hardening at room temperature by solidification of suitable catalysts.

Specifically, the improvements lie in the previous operation of extension of aggregates or solid bulk properly coalesced with an adherent material and once properly mixed and homogenized form a set, which extends over the surface to be paved, the extension being carried out properly until obtaining a solid and monolithic layer of thickness according to the surface to be paved, which may be subject to various treatments and having its primary use as a pavement.

It must be strictly understood that aggregates incorporated together with solid bulk and adherent material must comply with an appropriate or appropriate granulometric curve with their task and consequently must substantially guarantee the absence of free gaps between aggregates or at least one minimum existence of free gaps, consequently leading to greater cohesion between them by adhering to each other, by using the meniscus of adherent material that covers the surface context of the aggregates used.

The impregnation of the aggregates or solid bulk of the adherent material used as a meniscus can be carried out using a spray gun or using gravity by means of circular drums or containers or any other means, apparatus or device that achieves a perfect covering or coating of the context of each of the aggregate or bulk elements, each of the constituent parts of the aggregates or bulk having a thin layer or sheet of adherent element that allows its use as a meniscus.

The bulk or aggregates to be used may be configured from mineral materials, including marble, glass, granite, glass, etc., etc., or organic materials such as coconut husk, pomace, nutshell, etc., all of appropriate characteristics can be used to allow adhesion to each other, obviously previously surrounded or surrounded by a layer of adhesive material .

The adhesive, depending on the quality and composition of the aggregate, as well as its granulometry, can be configured as an epoxy resin, polyester resin, methacrylate resin or any other adherent material that is capable of hardening by polymerization at room temperature with help, if a catalyst is necessary, it should be noted that according to the type of aggregate or bulk used and in accordance with a mixture or exchange of qualities and colors of the aggregates or bulk, a pavement can be achieved that has different drawings, borders or any type of design.

Once the operation of extended and subsequent planned of the aggregate treated by the adherent has been carried out, the surface of the same is roughing, performing the roughing operation until obtaining a depth of approximately 50% of the average diameter of the constituent parts of the aggregate or bulk, achieving the obtaining of a surface formed from, of flat sections obtained on each of the constituent elements of the aggregate or bulk and obviously according to the appropriate granulometry that results in obtaining a surface or pavement obtained by 70% of constituent parts of the aggregate or bulk and the remaining 30% formed by the adherent material. The roughing mentioned and described above can be carried out using a wet process or a dry procedure, depending on the subsequent operation performed in the procedure, specifically the filling.

The wet procedure carried out in cold entails a roughing by means of a machine continuously cooled with water, generating the creation of sludges that are subsequently removed.

However, the dry process is performed hot and is configured as a roughing performed by a machine that sucks the resulting powder continuously and acts with forced ventilation, but consequently the pavement gradually acquires a substantially higher temperature.

After the roughing operation until reaching an approximate depth of 50% of the average diameter of the aggregates used until a flat surface is obtained, obtained by sections constituted by the elements that make up the aggregates, the filling of the honeycomb structure that forms the pavement obtained by performing this filling in accordance with the technical or aesthetic characteristics with which the requested flooring is to be terminated, since hydraulic materials can be used, such as cements with or without additives or with or without dyes, or either polymeric materials or resins, such as epoxy, acrylic, polyester, polyurethane, etc. resins. Sorel cement, magnesites or even clays can also be used.

It should be noted that when the filling process is carried out with polymers or resins, the aggregate that has been left by the roughing by the fully open surface pores, when filling, some of the polymers or resins fill the mentioned pores, of such that the pavement is substantially more protected from external aggressions, such as stains or attacks of acids or bases.

Finally, if it is considered appropriate, once the filling operation has been carried out, the pavement can be subjected to polishing and polishing operations.
