DEFINITION

Classification: 404/70

(under subclass 17) Pavement structure characterized by the inclusion of a general coextensive grid or network of attenuated elements-bars, rods, mesh, expanded metal, etc. to strengthen the pavement structure against failure induced by bending, compressive or tensional stresses.

SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:

45, for a preformed module, per se, including reinforcement means. This subclass must be searched for this feature.

47+, for pavement structure including joint means and see (2) note.

100, for apparatus for reinforcement material placing.

134+, for reinforcement structure, per se. This subclass must be searched for this feature.

SEE OR SEARCH CLASS 52, Static Structures (e.g., Buildings), appropriate subclasses-particularly

633+, for open-work and 720+ for elongated structure-suitable for embedding in settable material to form a composite structure which strengthens the whole; and see search notes thereunder for the loci of related structure.
