On September 3, 2002 I was awarded a United States Patent entitled: Reinforced Concrete Panel and Method of Manufacture [United States Patent: 6,443,666]. The primary claims recognized and awarded patent protection status related to a new concrete reinforcement technology directed towards the manufacture of high strength concrete panels.
For concrete reinforcement my basic approach is to take chain link mesh (chain link fence material), put it under tension in a mold frame and pour the concrete over it, which encapsulates the wire reinforcement.
