DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention involves the production of pre-formed panels, which can be formed in a variety of ways, cut to size, as necessary, and installed on or adjacent to a surface of a wall and / or door of a building. In general, to increase the effectiveness of the protection provided by the present invention, the wall can be a structural wall. The panels can be produced by spraying a polyurea or other elastomeric material specifically selected to facilitate the production process and operation of the finished panels, in the production of a material having improved tensile strength and elongation properties. The panels can also be produced by brushing, laminating and / or smoothing the polyurea material or other elastomeric material to the desired thickness to form the finished panels. Alternatively, the polyurea material or other elastomeric material can be applied (i.e., spray, brush, laminate and / or smooth) and attached directly to the interior surface of a structural wall or building. In still another alternative, the polyurea material or other elastomeric material may be applied (ie, sprayed, brushed, rolled and / or smoothed) onto a release agent (e.g., Teflon, silicon, wax, and / or any other release agent) that has previously been applied to the interior surface of the structural wall or building and then mechanical fasteners can be inserted through the elastomeric material and release agent and into and anchor to the interior surface. The interior surfaces to which the elastomeric material can be applied and fastened can include walls, ceilings, floors, columns, doors, windows, etc. Elastomers such as polysiloxane, polyurethane and polyurea / polyurethane hybrids can be used as an alternative to polyurea in the construction of the panels or in the attachment of a layer or layers of the material directly to the wall. The present invention may also involve a method for producing blast, shock and projectile resistant panels, which includes applying two or more layers of an elastomeric, high-solids, two-part polyurea material on a releasable substrate to a desired thickness. The two or more layers of the elastomeric material can be applied with or without one or more reinforcing layers of fiber or fabric placed between the two or more layers of the elastomeric material, allowing the material to cure, and removing the cured panel from the releasable substrate. Panels can be produced separately and supplied to a building site or produced at the building site. Panels can be installed on structural walls, doors and portions of a building, structure or vehicle to provide protection from shrapnel and projectiles. In addition, panels can be installed within elevator shafts and / or stair towers to provide extra structural integrity in the case of seismic activity and inside house walls to provide added strength and wind resistance. Likewise, the panels can be used to cover windows and doors and are held in place to protect them from the effects of strong winds and severe weather, for example, tornadoes and hurricanes. According to another embodiment of the present invention, the elastomeric material can be injection molded to form the enclosed tubes that can be used on the outside of the hull of ships to protect the case from the damage of other ships, docks, etc.

In Figure 1, a panel substrate 10 can act as a mold surface on which an elastomeric polyurea material can be applied, for example, spray, brush, laminate and / or smooth, to produce shrapnel retardant panels or blaster and / or projectile-resistant 100 according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention. Although the panel substrate 10 is shown as a flat, flat surface, other embodiments are contemplated in which the panel substrate 10 may have concave and / or convex contours and / or sides that may coincide with the wall, door, etc. specifies, conformations to which the panels 100 can be applied. The substrate 10 can be treated, when necessary, with an agent / release compound, to facilitate removal of the cured panels from the substrate. Using standard known spray application equipment, a two-part high solids elastomer composition is sprayed in liquid (uncured) form on the substrate 10. The spray equipment, for illustrative purposes, may include spray nozzle 20, which is connected via the flexible pipe 22, to an application pump 24. The storage tank or tank 26 can be used to feed the components that complete the elastomeric composition through the supply lines 28, 30, where the components they are mixed in the valve 32. The spray nozzle 20 can be operated manually to apply the polyurea material on the entire substrate in the production of a panel. Alternatively, the spray nozzle (more than one may be used) may be mounted to a carriage (not shown) of a known construction having drive means for moving the nozzle 20 transversely or horizontally, and vertically, to ensure that the composition is applied in a uniform thickness over the entire substrate. Other spraying arrangements are also feasible, and the one shown in figure 1 is only an example. It is contemplated that, for large-scale production, the spraying process can be substantially completely automated, with computer control and robotic elements being used to control the spraying equipment, including the movement of the sprayers and supply of the material to be sprayed. , and the management of the panels. However, the same basic process is still very identical and Figures 33-36 provide diagrams of two modalities of possible automated systems for the mass production of finished panels. For example, automated systems can produce at least one finished panel at least every 5 minutes. In a particularly exemplary embodiment, the panels can additionally be improved by including a reinforcing layer 102 which can be placed either on the external or internal surface of the panel 100, or can be placed inside the panel. The production method of such a panel, with the reinforcing layer being in an interior of the panel, may preferably include placing a reinforcing fabric material against the substrate 10, and spraying the polyurea or other sprayable elastomer onto the fabric to a thickness of which is about a half of the thickness of the finished panel. The fabric 102 with the pulverized polyurea is then rotated or released so that the polyurea faces the substrate and the fabric 102 faces the spraying equipment. A second application or spraying of the polyurea on the opposite side of the fabric 102 is then effected, to produce a panel of the desired finished or finished thickness. Modifications to this preferred process sequence can be employed. The reinforcing layer can be placed in intimate contact with the substrate 10 when it is desired to have the layer on an outer surface of the panel 100, and the elastomer can be sprayed onto the layer until the desired panel thickness is achieved. Where the layer 102 will be inside the panel 100, the layer may be spaced apart from the substrate 10, with the polyurea being sprayed through the layer to encapsulate the layer 102.

Alternatively, a portion of the panel can be sprayed onto the substrate, and the layer 102 can then be introduced, and the remaining thickness of the panel can then be sprayed to complete the panel. Once the spraying process is complete, and the polyurea material partially or completely cured, the layer can be separated from the substrate 10, thereby forming a panel 100. The panels 100 can therefore be essentially mass produced from a economic way. This can be done in a real factory setting, or in a portable or temporary production facility built in a building location, if it is found to be comparably economical or desirable for any reason. The panels 100 are then transported to a building which will be equipped with these blast resistant panels. The interior structural walls 104 of a building to which the panels will be secured are either left exposed during the initial construction, or in a modernization of the building, the interior cosmetic wall surfaces are removed to expose the interior surface of the structural wall. The panels 100 are cut to size, when necessary, and fixed to the interior surface of the wall 104, preferably using any suitable adhesive, or by mechanical bonding. Because the structural wall 104 will commonly be formed of either poured or block concrete, suitable mechanical joining shapes may include threaded concrete wall anchors, or bolts and anchor assemblies, or nailing with a concrete penetration nail. appropriate. Figure 2 is a substantially schematic view of the installation of a shrapnel containment panel inside the structural wall of a building, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 3 illustrates a preferred embodiment of the panel 100 when it is ready for installation. In this embodiment, the panel 100 is joined at its periphery by ribbed members 120 which retain the edges of the panel 100 between two rails 122, 124 placed on opposite sides (eg, front and rear) of the panel (see Figure 4). The ribbed members, which are preferably made of stainless steel, help structurally reinforce the panels at the edges, adding rigidity to these. In addition to the use of channels at the edges of the panel it improves the reliability of mechanical fasteners 121, such as, but not limited to, concrete wall anchors, screws, nails, etc. to secure the panels to the walls of the building. Figure 5 illustrates an additional panel clamping member 126 suitable for use when two panels will be joined to extend a wider distance than the width of a single panel. The adjacent edges of the two panels are secured to the two rails 128, 130 of this panel fastening member using suitable mechanical fasteners 131. The rails 128, 130 are off-center by a core 132, so that the fastening member retains the two panels essentially in an edge-abutting relationship. The clamping member 126 may be used in addition to, or in lieu of, the grooved member 120 at the edges to be joined. The clamping member can be secured to the building wall, too, by appropriate mechanical fasteners, for example, but not limited to, concrete wall anchors, etc. Explosive bursts, or other types of impact force on the outside of a building, can cause the structural wall to fracture and generate wall fragments of varying sizes, which are generally referred to as shrapnel. The panels 100, with their improved tensile strength and elongation characteristics, will act to effectively absorb a significant portion of the kinetic energy imparted to the shrapnel pieces. This absorption of kinetic energy will prevent the shrapnel from flying through the interior of the building. In situations in which explosive bursts also cause panels 100 to fracture, the kinetic energy absorbed or dissipated by the panels will significantly reduce the amount and / or speed of the shrapnel that can enter the interior of the building. People inside the building are therefore better protected against a major cause of injury resulting from an attack on a building. It is also believed that the panels contribute to the structural integrity of the wall itself, particularly when fastened to the wall by mechanical fasteners at the periphery of the panels. To be effective in absorbing or dissipating potentially high levels of kinetic energy that may come from an explosion or other shaking event, it is preferred that the thickness of the panel be in the range of about 100 to about 250 mils (0.254). cm to 0.635 cm). Even more preferably, the thickness of the panel will be approximately 180 thousandths of an inch (0.457 cm). Panels thicker than 250 mils (0.635 cm) can also be used, however, it is expected that the possible progressive increase in shrapnel containment or burst resistance provided by the thicker panels can be exceeded in value by cost increased (cost of material), in a cost / benefit analysis. The elastomeric material employed in the shrapnel containment panels preferably has particular combinations of physical properties or other properties of material in its cured state. Of particular significance are the percentage of elongation at break and tensile strength. The elastomer will preferably have an elongation at break in a range between about 100-800%, and more preferably at the greater end of this range, for example, 400-800%. The tensile strength of the elastomer preferably is a minimum of 2000 psi. In addition, it is believed that the adhesion properties of the elastomer are important, if the panels are constructed separately or formed in place on the walls of the building or other structure to be protected. It is preferred that the elastomer exhibit a minimum concrete adhesion of 300 psi (or concrete failure), and minimum 1200 psi steel adhesion. As previously noted, polyurea, polysiloxane, polyurethane and polyurea / polyurethane hybrids can produce the desired physical and material properties. Currently, in one embodiment an elastomer is used which is a 100% solids, spray-applied, aromatic polyurea material that is available as a two-part sprayable material (quasi-polymer isocyanate); mixture of amine with pigment) mainly designated as a coating system and waterproof coating, impact resistant, flexible. The coating system has been tested on produced panels that have a layer of fabric reinforcement. The fabric reinforcement layer provides a framework to which the uncured elastomer will adhere forming a panel shape. The fabric refoundation will preferably also contribute to the structural integrity of the panel to resist blasts and contain shrapnel, particularly helping to restrict the amount of elongation experienced by the elastomer when the energy of the blasts or other impact is being absorbed. To date, fabrics that have been used in the production of panels to be tested are produced from aramid or polyester yarns or fibers, with an open grid (opening between warp yarns and filling) in the order of 0.25 inches by 0.25 inches. (0.634 cm by 0.634 cm), or 0.5 inches by 0.25 inches (1.27 by 0.634 cm). It is believed, however, that smaller or larger grid opening sizes are suitable for use. The tensile strength of the fabric used in the panels tested to date is in the order of 1200 psi per 1200 psi. It is believed that the fabric made of yarns or aramid fibers of the Technora and Twaron brand produced by Teijin Fibers is particularly suitable for use in this application. The shrapnel containment system and method of the present invention may also be in the form of a layer of elastomeric material applied and attached directly to the wall or other structure that will be reinforced. In this example, the wall could preferably be cleaned of loose and foreign materials, with the elastomer applied by spraying, in a manner similar to that used in spraying panels on the panel substrate. The elastomer, as noted above, will preferably be selected for having a minimum adhesion strength or adhesion to concrete of 300 psi, and the concrete will generally have a sufficient number of small surface irregularities so that the elastomer will find regions where the joint Mechanics improves adhesion. When the system will have a fabric or fiber reinforcing element, the elastomer may also preferably be partially applied, with the reinforcing element then being placed, and the remainder of the elastomer layer then applied by spraying. Alternatively, the reinforcement element may first be placed against the wall, with the full thickness of the elastomer layer then being applied thereto.

The test of the burst-resistant / shrapper-containing panels according to the present invention has been conducted. A physical test sketch (not to scale) is shown in a schematic top view in Figure 6. In Figure 6, an explosive load 200 is centrally placed to four (4) identically constructed concrete block target 202 masonry walls. , spaced in a circle of 30 'radius (76.19 cm) of the explosive. The masonry target walls 202 were constructed having two reinforcement supports 204, which together with the target walls form a square "U" shape, so that the target walls 202 facing the explosive charge could have some degree of structural reinforcement , as they generally could be in a building. Panels A, B, and C (thickness not to scale in relation to wall thickness) were installed inside three of the walls, while the fourth wall had no panel or coating installed. The panels included 120 stainless steel channels surrounding their peripheries, and secured to the inside of the walls 202 using anchor fasteners for concrete. All panels A, B and C were produced at a nominal thickness of 180 mils (0.457 cm) of polyurea material having a layer of fabric reinforcement placed thereon. The additional construction details of the panels are as follows: TABLE I Elastornero Panel Fabric Reinforcement A AR425, 180 mil (0.457 cm) Technora fabric T200, 0.5x0.25"(1.27x0.634 cm) of replenishment aperture B AR425, 180 mil (0.457 cm) Technora fabric T200, 0.5x0.25" (1.27) x0.634 cm) of rejilla opening C AR425, 180 mil (0.457 cm) Twaron T1000 fabric, 0.5x0.25"(0.634x0.634 cm) of reel opening The explosive charge 200 comprised 42 blocks (52.5 lbs (23.81 kg)) of explosive C-4 configured to generate a uniform overpressure of bursts at the front of each target wall 202. This amount of explosive C-4 is equivalent to 67.2 pounds ( 30.48 kg) of TNT. The load was raised four feet (121.91 cm) above the ground to align with the center point of each wall (the 202 walls were 8 feet (243.83 cm) high). The explosive charge detonated statically, creating a peak incident overpressure of 17.67 psi, and a reflected pressure of 51.22 psi. Initial post-explosion observations revealed that the unprotected wall (no insured panel in the interior) suffered catastrophic structural failure, with virtually nothing of the concrete either from the target wall 202 or the reinforcement supports 204 remaining in place above the base of the wall. Fragments of the wall, or shrapnel, caused by the bursts were found up to 54 feet (16.45 m) behind the wall (ie, inside the wall). In contrast, the three objective walls that have the panels installed on the interior surface remained standing, with slightly varying damage levels to the concrete blocks. The regions in which the target wall 202 was attached to the reinforcement supports 204 appeared to suffer the greatest damage, due to the stresses induced at those junctions by the bursts. The objective walls by themselves contained varying degrees of fissure and fracture. Inspection of the panels revealed that small areas of a marking paint coating on the interior surfaces of the panel have been chipped or peeled off, presumably by concrete fragments that hit the opposite side of the panel during the explosion. Little or no plastic deformation, and no fracture or perforation, of the panels was observed. No concrete fragments were found behind (inside) the panels. In the removal of the panels, fragments of the target walls were found behind each of the test panels. Tables 2-5 present data related to the wall fragments (shrapnel) found subsequent to the test. It will be noted that no data is provided regarding the "Distance of the Wall" for the walls that have the panels secured to these, because none of the fragments passed through the panels.

In Figure 7, a panel 700 can be made of any necessary size, it can include a body portion 710 having an inner surface 711 and an outer surface 712, and the body portion 710 can be, for example, but not limited a, a 2 'by 2' (5.08 cm by 5.08 cm), a 2 'by 3' (5.08 cm by 7.62 cm), a 2 'by 4' (5.08 cm by 10.16 cm), a 4 'by 8' (10.16 cm by 20.32 cm), as well as larger and / or smaller sizes, to cover a wall or portion thereof. The panel 700 may also include 2, 3 or 4 projections, for example, an upper projection 713, a lower projection 714, a left projection 715, and a right projection 716, where each of the projections generally depends on the body portion. 710 on a single side of the body portion 710, for example, on the side with the inner surface 711. However, embodiments are contemplated in which the projections, for example the upper protrusion 713 and lower protrusion 714 may depend on the body portion 710 on opposite sides, for example, the upper protrusion 713 may depend on the body portion 710 on the side with the outer surface 712 and the lower protrusion 714 may depend on the body portion 710 on the side with the surface 711. In general, the projections 713, 714, 715, 716, in Figure 7, depend on the body portion 710 at substantially a 90 ° angle, although other angles, more so as less than 90 °, are also ntemplan. In the modalities with only 2 projections, the projections are generally located on opposite edges of the panel 700, for example, top and bottom or left and right. As seen in Figure 7, with four projections the panel 700 resembles an open box or container with relatively short sides represented by the projections 713, 714, 715, 716. Each projection may extend 1 inch (2.54 cm) or more from the body portion 710 and can generally extend to the length of the side of the panel 700 in which the projection is located. Panel 700 and projections 713, 714, 715, 716 of Figure 7 can be formed as a single piece having a substantially uniform thickness using a variety of methods. For example, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, in one method panel 700 and projections 713, 714, 715, 716 can be formed by spraying an elastomeric material in a mold (not shown) having a substantially similar shape to that of the panel 700, allowing the elastomeric material to adjust and removing the panel 700 from the mold. Panels with 2, 3 and 4 protrusions can be produced using this method. Although the production of panels in the manner illustrated in Figure 7 can help the speed of the installation process, because they are ready to be installed, it may present some logistical emergencies related to the loading and storage of the panels configured in this way. . Specifically, when the panel 700 is manufactured with projections 713, 714, 715, 716, it can become more difficult to stack and / or combine multiple panels 700 for shipping, and therefore, it is more expensive than the flat panels. The panel 700, in Figure 7, can be colcored against a wall in a structure and, in general, the upper ledge 713 and lower ledge 714 can be fastened to a roof and a floor close to the wall in the structure, respectively. If the panel 700 includes one or more lateral projections 714, 715 and these lateral projections rest on the walls and / or column portions of the structure, the lateral projections can also be fastened to the walls and / or column portions. For example, the panel 700 can be fastened to the structure using mechanical fasteners, such as concrete anchors, screws and / or nails. In one embodiment of the present invention, the fasteners may be a fastener for concrete, for example, but not limited to, a Kwik-Con 11+ fastener of 1/4"(0.635 cm) in diameter by 1 3/4" ( 4.44 cm) long, manufactured by Hilti USA, with or without a washer and spaced approximately 12"(30.48 cm) from the center along the length of the protrusion that is clamped in. Alternatively, if panel 700 only has 2 or 3 protrusions, then the edges without protrusions resting on similarly shaped edges of adjacent panels without protrusions can be held together using, for example, a Z-shaped channel fastening member as described above with reference to FIGS. , 4 and 5, as well as using wall structuring, for example, plates and / or uprights of wood and / or metal (i.e., bottom) and lid (i.e., top) throughout the walls lateral protrusions, which will be described in the sub paragraphs following in the present. Figure 8 is a cross-sectional view of the panel of Figure 7 along line 8-8, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. In Figure 8, the substantially uniform thickness of the panel 700 can be seen to be consistent between the body portion 710 and the upper protrusion 713 and lower protrusion 714. Although the panel 700 can be shown having relatively sharp external edges where the upper protrusion 713 and lower projection 714 depend on the body portion 710, the slightly rounded and / or curved edges can also be provided using a mold with rounded and / or curved edges. Figure 9 is a partial top view of a continuous fastening tape with fasteners securing a portion of a protrusion of a panel to a concrete surface, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. In Figure 9, a projection 910 may have placed on this a continuous fastening tape 920 and multiple fasteners 930 may pass through the continuous fastening tape 920 and the projection 910 on the concrete 940, which, for example, may be a floor, ceiling, wall and / or column in a structure.

FIG. 10 is a partial top view of non-continuous fastening tapes with fasteners securing a portion of a protrusion from a panel to a concrete, co nformity with one embodiment of the present invention. In Figure 10, a projection 1010 may have placed on this at least one tape / non-continuous fastening section 1020 and multiple fasteners 1030 may pass through each non-continuous fastening tape / section 1020 and projection 1010 on concrete 1040, which can be a floor, ceiling, wall and / or column in a structure. The non-continuous clamping tape 1020 can be made of metal (for example, steel plate and / or cold rolled steel 1/8"(0.317 cm), 1/4" (0.635 cm), etc. thickness per 1"(2.54 cm), 2"(5.08 cm), 3" (7.62 cm), etc. wide), wood (eg, 2"by 4" cartons, 2"by 6" (5.08 cm by 15.24 cm) used as slabs and / or uprights to structure walls), and / or any other material that has similar strength and durability as metal and / or wood. The fasteners 1030 may be used in combination with a fixative or epoxy adhesive and / or other to assist in the placement of the fasteners 1030 in the concrete 1040. FIG. 11 is a partial top view of various individual fastening systems securing a portion from a ledge of a panel to a concrete surface, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. In Figure 11, each of the multiple fasteners 1130 can pass through a washer 1135 and a protrusion 1110 in the concrete 1140, which can be a floor, roof, wall and / or column in a structure. The washer 1135 can be made of a metal (e.g., steel, zinc, etc.) and / or other material having similar strength and durability as metal. The fasteners 1130 may be used in combination with a fixative or epoxy adhesive and / or other to assist in the placement of the fasteners 1130 in the concrete 1140. Figure 12 is a top, cross-sectional view of a wall system manufactured with a reinforced panel fastened to existing frame elements with fasteners, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. In Figure 12, one side of a wall system section 1200, for example, in a metal and / or vehicle building is shown connected to an exterior side 1202 of an interior wall 1203 and an opposite side of the wall system 1200 is connected to an inner side 1204 of an outer bypass 1205. The wall system section 1200 may include a pair of opposed U-shaped channel components, a U-shaped channel component 1210 and a second channel component in U-shape 1215 which can each extend along the full vertical length of opposite sides of the wall system section 1200. Each opposing U-shaped channel component can include a pair of left and right protrusions 1211, 1212 and 1216, 1217, respectively, where each depends on a body portion 1213 and 1218, respectively, generally at an angle of 90 degrees, and generally extend to the vertical height of the wall system section 1200. Although it is not mo In addition, additional sections of the U-shaped channel can also be placed along the upper and lower edges of the wall system section 1200 to form a frame. These additional sections of the U-shaped channel can be adapted to uniformly fit with the first and second U-shaped channel components 1210, 1215. Between the U-shaped channel components 1210, 1215 one or more sections can be placed of a reinforced panel 1220, 1225 that can be fastened along the vertical height of the right projection 1212. In general, each reinforcement panel 1220, 1225 can be manufactured in a variety of sizes, for example, but not limited to , 2 'by 2' (5.08cm by 5.08cm), 2 'by 3' (5.08cm by 7.62cm), 4 'by 8' (10.16cm by 20.32cm), etc., and may have a varying thickness from approximately 100 thousandths of an inch to 250 thousandths of an inch (0.254 cm to 0.635 cm) or more. If necessary, the wall system section 1200 may also include one or more I-shaped channel components 1230 positioned between and substantially parallel with the first U-shaped component 1210 and second U-shaped channel component 1215. Each I-shaped channel component 1230 resembles a beam I and may have two pairs of opposite projections, a first ledge 1231 paired with a second ledge 1232 and a third ledge 1233 paired with a fourth ledge 1234 that generally depends perpendicularly on a portion of body 1235 of the I-shaped channel component 1230.

In Figure 12, the reinforced panel 1220 can be fastened to and along the length of the right projection 1212 of the first U-shaped channel 1210 and is secured to and along the length of the third projection 1233 of the channel component in 1230 form using, for example, multiple nuts 1240 and screws 1242. Alternatively, the fastener can be made using multiple rivets 1244 and washers 1245. The wall system section 1200 can also include one or more foam sections 1250, 1255 between the reinforced panel and the projections 1211, 1231, 1232, 1216. In general, the U-shaped channel and I-channel components 1210, 1215 and 1230, respectively, of Figure 12 can be made from a material which has sufficient strength and rigidity, for example, metal, composite and the like, to support the wall system section 1200 and to impart structural strength to support the inner wall sections and outer deviation r attached to these and the wall and floor sections placed in the upper part of the wall system section 1200. Figure 13 is a partial cross-sectional top view of another wall system manufactured with a reinforced panel fastened to the wall. existing frame elements, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. In Figure 13, a wall system section 1300 similar to the wall system section 1200 of Figure 12 is shown in which the mechanical fasteners are not used to connect the reinforcement panel 1220 to any of the first channel in shape. U 1210 and I-shaped channel 1230. Instead, reinforcement panel 1220 can be adhesively bonded to the projections on the first U-shaped channel 1210 and I-shaped channel 1230. Alternatively, the projections on the U-shaped channel 1210 and I-shaped channel 1230 can be configured to have a slotted portion in which a vertical edge of reinforced panel 1220 can be inserted. This design is shown and described herein in relation to Figure 14. The slotted portion may be located proximate one or both of the projections on each of the U-shaped channel 1210 and I-shaped channel 1230. Figure 14 is a top, partial, cross-sectional view of a slotted portion of a frame in a wall system manufactured with a reinforced panel that can be used to secure the panel to existing frame elements, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. In Figure 14, a right side of a U-shaped channel component 1410 is shown with a slotted portion 1411 defined by a first projection 1412 that is substantially perpendicularly dependent on a body portion 1415 of the U-shaped channel component 1410. and a first projection flange 1413 that depends at a substantially perpendicular angle to a lower end of the projections 1412 and substantially parallel to the body portion 1415. Similarly, a second projection 1414 is shown to be substantially perpendicularly dependent on the same side of the projection. body portion 1415 of the U-shaped channel component 1410 as the first projection 1412. The second projection 1414 may also have a second ledge flange 1414 that depends at a substantially perpendicular angle to a lower end of the projection 1412 and that is substantially parallel to the body portion 1415. In general, the first flange of projection 1413 and second reb Outline 1416 are coplanar and of substantially equal length. As seen in FIG. 14, the reinforcing panel 1420 can include a keyed portion 1430 along its edges to fit within the slotted portion 1411 and the keyed portion 1430 can be variably located along the edge of the slot. reinforcement panel 1420 to allow an external surface 1421 of the reinforcement panel 1420 is aligned with an outer edge of the first projection 1412 or an external surface 1422 is aligned with an inner edge of the first projection 1412. The installation of the keyed portion 1430 in the slotted portion 1411 can be accomplished, for example, by sliding the keyed portion 1430 into the slotted portion 1411 or by rapidly positioning the keyed portion 1430 in the slotted portion 1441. In the contemplated embodiments of the wall system section 1200, the reinforcement panel can be manufactured with or without one or more fabric / fiber reinforcement layers in the reinforcement panel 1220 used to make the section wall system 1200. Figure 15 is a side view, in partial cross-section, of a concrete floor manufactured with a reinforced panel inside the concrete floor, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. In Figure 15, a concrete slab 1500 may include an upper concrete portion 1510 and a lower concrete portion 1520 between which a reinforcement panel 1530 may be interleaved. The reinforcement panel 1530 may include panels having one or more elastomer layers both with and without one or more fabric / fiber reinforcement layers in these. In one embodiment of the present invention, the concrete slab 1500 can be manufactured by pouring concrete to create the lower concrete portion 1520, placing one or more reinforcement panels 1530 on the upper portion of the lower concrete portion 1520 either before and / or after the concrete hardens, and pouring concrete onto the reinforcement layer 1530 to form the upper concrete portion 1510. One or more reinforcement panels 1530, in general, are pre-fabricated cured panels with or without a more fabric / fiber layers as described herein. However, the reinforcement panel 1530, regardless of whether it is with and / or without one or more fabric / fiber layers, can also be applied by spraying to the lower concrete portion 1520 and then the upper concrete portion 1510 can be applied. pour into reinforcement panel 1530. In figure 15, although not shown, concrete slab 1500 may also include beams I, reinforcement bars, wire and / or other reinforcement elements and / or structural support. For example, one or both of the upper concrete portion 1510 and lower concrete portion 1520 may include a reinforcing rod and / or structure that may have been tied with wire to improve the strength and stiffness of the concrete slab 1500 Examples of possible reinforcement and / or structural support elements are described with reference to Figures 16 and 17. Figure 16 is a partial cross-sectional top view of a concrete wall constructed with reinforcement bar and a panel reinforced inside the concrete wall, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. In Figure 16, a concrete wall 1600 may include a first concrete side 1610, a second concrete side 1620, and a reinforcement panel layer 1630 sandwiched between the first concrete side 1610 and second concrete side 1620. The layer of reinforcement 1630 may include panels having one or more layers of elastomer both with or without one or more fabric / fiber reinforcement layers thereon. Although the concrete wall 1600 is similar in appearance to the concrete slab 1500 in Figure 15, the method of construction may be different. For example, different from concrete slabs of which the concrete is generally 4 inches (10.16 cm) to 12 (30.48 cm) or more inches thick (high) and oriented along a horizontal plane, in a concrete wall concrete is generally 4 inches (10.16 cm) to 12 (30.48 cm) or more inches thick (wide) and oriented along a straight vertical plane from 4 feet (121.91 cm) to 10 (304.79 cm) or more feet high and running along a full side / portion of a structure. As a result, the concrete walls must be poured in exaggerated forms that are generally made of reinforced metal and are held together with pieces of reinforcing bar and / or other metal reinforcing element. In general, concrete walls in a house and / or building can be from about 4 feet (121.91 cm) to 12 feet (30.48 cm) high. Of course, the walls may be shorter and / or taller, as required by the particular building application. In addition, the reinforcement bar and / or wire mesh and / or structures can also be placed within the shapes so that the concrete can enclose the reinforcement bar and / or wire when it is poured into the shapes. For example, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, a concrete wall construction method 1600 may include assembling one or more layers of reinforcing bars and / or wire mesh and placing one or more layers of reinforcing bars and / or wire mesh inside a shape. One or more reinforcement panels 1630 may be placed approximately in the middle of the mold and between one or more layers of reinforcement bar 1640 and / or wire mesh. In at least one embodiment, at least one or more reinforcement panels 1630 can be connected using a Z-shaped channel connector and / or I-1650 channel and fasteners, bolts, screws, staples, tape, etc. In addition, one or more layers of reinforcement bar and / or wire mesh can be tied together by passing the reinforcement bar and / or wire through the holes in one or more reinforcement panels 1630. In the method, the Concrete is poured into the mold and around the panel and reinforcement bar and / or wire mesh and allowed to harden. Once the concrete is hardened, the shapes can be removed to reveal the concrete wall 1600 with the reinforcement layer 1630 embedded therein. Figure 17 is a top view, in partial cross-section, of a concrete wall constructed with the reinforcing bar and a reinforced panel on an exterior surface of the concrete wall, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. In Figure 17, a concrete wall 1700 may include a portion of concrete 1710, and at least one portion of reinforcement panel on one or both sides of concrete wall 1700. Concrete wall 1700 may be constructed by placing one or more reinforcing panels 1720 against one or both sides of a shape and a reinforcement bar and / or wire mesh and / or structure substantially in the middle of the mold. The concrete can be poured into the mold and once it has hardened, the mold can be removed to reveal the 1700 concrete wall with the 1720 reinforcing panels on one side. As in Figure 16, the adjacent reinforcing panels used in the concrete wall 1700 in Figure 17 can be held together as described above with reference to Figure 16.

In Figure 18, a column panel cover 1800 can be formed as a substantially rectangular, eg, square, or any other configuration (eg, oval, circular, etc.) to match the external dimensions of a column. Regardless of the shape of the column, the column panel cover 1800 can be pre-molded around an appropriately shaped mold to conform to the shape of the column. As seen in Figure 18, it can be a substantially square shape so that the outer edges 1802, 184 of the column panel cover 1800 do not connect to provide an opening 1810 that runs along the length of the edges 1802, 1804. In Figure 18, the opening 1810 allows the edges 1802, 1804 to be extended apart and the column panel cover 1800 to be placed around the column. Alternatively, the column panel cover 1800 can be formed by heating and then bending a flat reinforcement panel around the outside of the column. In general, when the column panel cover 1800 is installed around a column, the outer edges 1802, 1804 will be as close together as possible to completely close the aperture 1810 or make it as small as possible. Alternatively, the outer edges 1802, 1804 may be currently overlapped. Regardless of whether the edges 1802, 1804 overlap, the mechanical fasteners as discussed herein may be used, both with and without epoxy, to secure the column panel cover 1800 to the column at least about one corner of the column. column along the seam formed by the edges 1802, 1804. If desired, the column panel cover 1800 can also be clamped around each edge as well as on each face / surface of the column. An adhesive with mechanical fasteners can also be used to attach the column panel cover 1800 to the column. In another embodiment of the present invention, the column panel cover 1800 in FIG. 18 can include two or more separate panels that can be manufactured and / or cut to fit against each side of the column so that the separate panels are supported envelope and / or overlap at each corner of the column. For example, the 1800 column panel cover can include two L-shaped halves; a U-shaped piece that will cover three sides and a flat piece to cover the fourth side; and / or four separate flat pieces to cover each of the sides of the column.

Figure 33 is a side view of a system of manufacture of panel resistant to shrapnel and automatic projectiles, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. In Figure 33, a 3300 automatic projectile and missile resistant panel manufacturing system may include a first spray application section 3310, which may include a pair of driving rolls 3311 to assist in pulling a fabric / fiber layer 3302. outside a fabric / fiber roll system 3305 and in the first spray application section 3310. The first spray application section 3010 may additionally include one or more first automatic spray nozzles for spraying the elastomer onto a first side of the fabric / fiber layer 3302, a conveyor system 3313 (for example, but not limited to, a conveyor system) to form an intermediate panel layer 3315 moves the combined fabric / fiber layer 3302 and the first elastomer layer 3314 through the first spray application section 3310. The first 3310 spray application section can be n further include a second pair of driving rollers 3316 located at an outlet end of the first spray application section 3310. The second pair of driving rollers 3316 can operate to pull the intermediate panel layer 3315 out of the first table section of spraying 310 and feeding it into a turning section 3320 that can be operatively connected to the outlet end of the first spray application section 3310 to receive the intermediate panel layer 3315.

In Figure 33, the turning section 3320 may include at least one large roller / drum 3321, or a structure for performing the equivalent function, and may also include one or more small drums 3324 around which the intermediate panel layer 3315 can pass and be effectively rotated so that the fabric / fiber layer 3302 in the intermediate panel layer 3315 faces as it is pulled into the second spray table section 3340 through the third drive rollers 3341. Although the 3320 turn may seem to operate to release the intermediate panel layer 3315 through a U-shaped turn, which results in what may appear to be a two-level configuration for the 3300 automatic panel manufacturing system, other configurations are contemplated and ways of turning. For example, one or more rollers at angles and then placed one level above the spray table section 3310 completely rotate the intermediate panel layer 3315. For example, a single roller is placed at the end of the table section. spray 3310 and at a 45 degree angle to the travel path of the intermediate panel layer 3315 so that when the intermediate panel layer 3315 travels over the roller, the second side of the fabric layer is revealed and the intermediate panel 3315 may now be traveling at an angle of substantially 90 degrees to the travel path of the intermediate panel layer 3315 while it is in the spray table section 3310. At this point the intermediate panel layer 3315 will likely be at a level above the surface of the spray table section 3310 so that the second spray table section 3310 may need to be larger or the intermediate panel layer 3315 may need to be turned to its 45-degree roll height. This can be done, for example, by passing the intermediate layer 3315 under a roller that is positioned at a 90 degree angle to the second spray table section 3310 and at substantially the same height as the roller height of 45 degrees. Alternatively, in another embodiment of the turning section 3320 in Figure 33, a three roll system may be implemented, for example, with a first roller at a 45 degree angle as in the previously described embodiment. The roller system may also include a second roller at a 90 degree angle to the end of the spray boom section 3310 parallel to the travel path of the intermediate panel layer 3315 in the spray table section 3310 and above. of the first roller to allow the intermediate panel layer 3315 to pass under the second roller and wrap around the second roller again so that the intermediate panel layer 3315 is traveling 180 degrees in the opposite direction. The three roller system can finally include a third roller at a 45 degree angle opposite the first roller and the third roller can be placed one level above the first and second rollers and physically placed substantially directly above the first roller so that, from above, the first roller and the third roller may appear to form an "X" shape. The intermediate panel layer 3315 can travel under and wrap around the third roller so that the intermediate panel layer 3315 is again traveling in substantially the same direction and path when it was in the spray table section 3310, although at a level slightly elevated If desired, the rotation of the intermediate panel layer 3315 at the same level as it was in the spray table section 3310 can be effected using an additional roller after the third roller that can be placed almost before the second table section of the table. spraying 3340 at a height substantially equivalent to the first roller and at a 90 degree angle through the intermediate panel layer 3315 and passing the intermediate panel layer 3315 under the additional roller and over the second spray table section 3340. Of course, the above alternatives can also be implemented with the rollers below and / or above the surface of each of the spray table section 3310 and second spray table section 3340, as appropriate. It should be clear that the previous alternative roll modes for turning section 3320 are only illustrative and in no way should they be constructed as the only ones, not to limit the possible modalities contemplated. The second spray table section 3340 may additionally include one or more second automatic spray nozzles 332 for spraying the elastomer onto a second side of the fabric / fiber layer 3302 and another conveyor system 3343 (for example, but not limited to , a conveyor system, multiple free-motion roller, etc.) to form a final panel layer 3345 and move the final panel layer 3345 through and out of the second spray table section 3340. The second section of spraying table 3340 may still additionally include a fourth pair of driving rollers 3346 located at an exit end of the second spray table section 3340. The fourth pair of driving rollers 3346 may operate to pull the final panel layer 3345 out of the second spray table section 3340 and feeding it into a finishing section 3350 which can be operatively connected to the end of the of the second spray application section 3340 to receive the final panel layer 3315 through a fifth pair of driving rollers 3351. The fifth pair of driving rollers 3351 can operate to pull the final panel layer 3345 in and through the finishing section 3350 through a finishing base 3354 and in a sixth pair of driving rollers 3356. The sixth pair of driving rollers 3356 can operate to pull the final panel layer 3345 through the finishing base 3354 and out of the finishing section 3350. A cutting apparatus 3360 may be placed between the second spray application section 3340 and the finishing section 3350 and, if desired, may cut the final panel layer 3345 into panels 3355 of predetermined lengths. The cutting apparatus 3360 may include a large knife, a forging blade, a high pressure water jet blade, and / or any other cutting mechanism that can quickly cut through the full width of the final panel layer 3345 and does not prevent movement of the end panel layer 3345 through the second spray table section 3340. Alternatively, in another embodiment, the cutting apparatus 3360 may be placed at the exit end of the finishing section 3350 next to the sixth part of driving rollers 3356. Alternatively, the cutting apparatus 3360 may insert perforations in the final panel layer in any orientation. In Figure 33, the automatic panel manufacturing system 3300 may also include a compensation system 3370 which may include a compensating roller system 3371 for receiving the final panel layer 3345 when it leaves the finishing section 3350 through a sixth pair of driving rollers 3356. The compensating roller system 3371 can include a roller 3372 driven by a motor 3373 to which a guide end width of the end panel layer 3345 can be attached and around which it can be rolled . The roller 3372 can receive an empty pressed board or similar compensation roll. A front edge of the end panel layer 3345 can be attached to the compensation roller and a thin plastic sheet 3375, for example, similar to a plastic wrap, can be supplied from a roll of plastic sheet 3380 and applied to one side of the final panel layer 3345 when being rolled on the roller 3372 to help prevent the final panel layer 3345 from sticking on itself while it is being rolled.

Although this can not be as efficient as manufacturing a large panel and then cutting it into small sections for standard rectangular sizes (eg, 2 feet by 4 feet (60.96 cm by 121.92 cm), etc.), these components and this procedure They can prove to be beneficial in the production of specially configured panels with non-rectangular shapes. In addition, the spray table surface 3462 may include a configuration or design so that the configuration or design is imparted to the surface of the finished panel. For example, the configuration or design can be multi-dimensional and for aesthetic and / or multi-dimensional purposes to improve panel usability such as sound weakening / dissipation capabilities. In addition, the system can be configured to selectively spray the elastomer onto the spray table surface 3462 to provide prefabricated panels with openings (eg, window and door openings) that have predetermined sizes and are located at predetermined positions on the panel. In general, the fabric sheet 3411 cut from the fabric roll 3412 will not have a pre-cut opening for the window or door, but instead will be left intact to provide stability for handling and shipping and allow it to be properly cut and wrapped around the structural wall elements during installation. For example, in a panel with a pre-fabricated rectangular window, the fabric sheet web 3411 can be cut through both diagonals to create four essentially triangular fabric flaps 3411 that can be wrapped around and fastened to the structuring of the window. A similar process can be used for differently shaped windows as well as doors and other openings (eg, heating and cooling vents, electrical outlets, etc.). The panel detaching section 3480 may include a panel stripping frame 3481, an assembly panel detacher 3482 movably coupled with panel detacher frame 3481 and moving layer to and from the spray table section to catch and return with a finished panel. The panel stripper assembly 3482 may include selectively attachable panel pickup elements 3483 that can be symmetrically arranged in a configuration over an area equivalent in size to the spray table surface 3462. The panel stripper assembly 3482 may additionally include a second drive mechanism 3487 located near a rear end 3488 of the panel release assembly 3482 and the second drive mechanism 3487 can operate to move the fabric carriage 3434 to and from the spray table 3460 along the guide rails 3433 or, alternatively, it can move the panel stripper assembly 3482 from the panel stripping section 3480 to and from the spray table 3460 along the guide rails 3433. In Figure 35, the shrapnel panel manufacturing system and automatic projectiles 3400 may additionally include a 3505 control panel which may separately be in communication and in control of each element in the automatic shrapnel and missile resistant panel manufacturing system 3400, a plural component measuring machine 3510 which may be in fluid communication with the spray gun assembly 3440. The machine 3510 may include a pair of fluid storage tanks 3511, 3513 for separately storing a polymer base and an isocyanate and a pair of heat exchangers 3512, 3514 for cooling the return polymer base and the isocyanate on its return to its respective storage tanks 3511, 3 513. The machine 3510 can also include a hydraulic pump system 3516, 3518, 3525 with each being coupled to only one of the pair of fluid storage tanks 3511, 3513.

Accordingly, it can be seen that the present invention provides an economical means to greatly generate the safety of workers and / or equipment or other objects located inside a building or other structure that is subjected to an explosive bursts or other form of gr an impact, which could otherwise send the piece shrapnel from the wall projected through the interior of the structure. The system of the present invention can be easily modernized in existing buildings and structures, especially when the pre-sprayed panel version is employed, or it can be installed in any new building or structure that is constructed. The finished interior wall can have an appearance substantially identical to an interior wall not equipped with the system of the present invention, and for which no compromise is made with respect to the aesthetics of the workplace. While described primarily as being useful in protecting the interior of a wall and containing shrapnel from it in the event of a bursts or other impact, the system and method of the present invention, particularly the panel system, It is believed that it provides high levels of resistance to penetration through it in situations of more focused or localized impact. As such, the panels or system are expected to be suitable for use as shielding "plate" in applications that require energy absorption and penetration resistance against, for example, generally small projectiles fired by rifles and other firearms and pistols, including use in the annulment or defense against projectiles that are designated to be of a "piercing" nature. This property is considered herein to be included by the terms, "blaster-resistant," and as used for "shrapnel containment," as those terms used herein.

Figure 43 is a front view of a burst / shrapnel containment panel in accordance with an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. In Figure 43, a panel 4300 is shown with an upper striped line 4310 and a lower striped line 4320 to indicate a proximal location for bending the panel to form the upper and lower flaps. The panels can be manufactured in any size, for example, 4 'x 8' (10.16 cm x 20.32 cm), 4.5 'x 10' (11.43 cm x 25.4 cm), etc. In general, the upper and lower striped lines 4310, 4320 may be located approximately 3 to 4 inches (7.62 cm to 10.16 cm) from the upper and lower edges of the panel 4300. The bending can be performed by heating the panel 4300 substantially to along the upper and lower striped lines 4310, 4320 until the panel 4300 becomes collapsible in the heated regions and then folds each end of the panel 4300 to form the flap. For example, the ends of the panel 4300 can be bent over a hard surface to help form the flaps. The process can be carried out in stages with, for example, heating the panel being done using a standard heat gun. In addition, the panel can be heated using a bar heater, which can be as long as, shorter than, or longer than the panel width. The panel 4300 may also have flaps forms on one or more of the sides. The flaps can also be cut, or include perforations, as illustrated by the striped line 4320. The perforations allow, for example, that the panel be installed around the objects in a structure. A portion of the panel 4300 may also be heated and placed in and around a mold whereby the panel is formed. The mold, however, need not be a mold in the traditional sense, but may also include any object on which or within which the panel is placed, warms and deforms it. For example, the panel can be folded around the structural features of a building on site with the appropriate heating equipment. Figure 44 is a side view of the burst / shrapper containment panel of Figure 43, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. Figure 45 is a front perspective view of the burst / shrapper containment panel of Figure 43 showing the panel after being bent to produce the flaps 4330, 4340 on the upper and lower sides, in accordance with one embodiment of the invention. present invention. While the panel 4300 is shown with overlaps being approximately perpendicular to the panel, it will be appreciated that the flaps can be bent at any angle and in different directions. In addition, as discussed above, a flap can be cut thereby allowing a single flap to be folded in different directions. The panels can be installed using mechanical fasteners with or without protections and / or washers on the roof and floor through the flaps. In addition, similar or different fasteners can be used with channels, protections and / or washers to fasten the panels to a wall surface. In general, the installation of a fastener involves optional pre-drilling a hole through the panel and into the wall / ceiling / floor, optionally by coating the fastener with an epoxy and screwing the fastener with and / or without a protection / washer / etc . , through the panel and into the hole until the fastener has expanded to or hooked the internal walls of the hole. For example, fasteners used in the front of the wall may include a Tap-con®, which is a concrete screw design that allows the screw to be anchored in concrete, brick and block. Tapcon® concrete screws thread the threads in a pre-drilled hole in the concrete, brick or block. Figure 46 is a side view of the burst / shrapper containment panel of Figure 45 showing the upper and lower flaps 4330, 4340, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. The complete method for creating the panels illustrated in Figures 43 to 46 may include: pre-cutting a panel to fit the wall, heating and folding the flap to approximately 90 degrees at the bottom of the panel to fit the bottom of the joint wall / floor; heat the top of the panel; place the panel against the wall and ceiling and attach the lower flap to the floor; bend the top of the panel along the roof outline; and fasten the top flap to the ceiling.

Figure 64 is a side view of the articulated forming template 6200 with the panel 6210 in an exemplary end position in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. In this exemplary embodiment, the panel 6210 has been bent into a 90 ° fold with the top plate 6220 being perpendicular to the bottom plate 6230. The articulated forming template 6200 is left in this position until the panel 6210 has cooled and hard. While not illustrated, the articulated forming jig may also include a mold on which the panel is bent to impart a shape, such as a specific radius, crease, or the like, in the folded position of the panel. Figure 65 is a side view of a hinged forming template 6500 for forming flaps in a burst / shrapper containment panel 6210 having an integrated heating element 6510 with a panel 6210 in an initial position in accordance with another embodiment of the invention. present invention. The heating element can include an on / off switch 6520 and can be connected to a power source. The heating element may also include a thermostat to regulate the temperature, and thus the foldability, of the panel 6210. Figure 66 is a side view of the articulation template with an exemplary panel 6210 in an exemplary final position in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. Figure 67 is a front view of a hinged forming jig for flaps in a burst / shrapper containment panel 6210 in an initial position in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. The training template may also include levelers, for manual operation, and / or mechanically driven devices to assist with flexing the 6210 panel to the desired configuration. The polymers that can be used to manufacture the panels can include Envirolastic 425 from Sherwin Williams and Versaflex 45DC from Dow Chemical Company, which can be mixed with an isocyanate almost prior to spraying a panel. For example, the isocyanate may include TONE polycaprolactone from Dow. Burst / shrapnel containment panels can be used in conjunction with a pre-fabricated wall section used to construct pre-fabricated buildings. A burst / shrapnel containment panel is embedded within the section. The section includes exterior aluminum wall surfaces between which a foam insulation layer has been injection molded, and the panel is embedded within the foam insulation. A seal can be formed around the edges of each wall section with the sections attached when assembled. In general, the panel can be placed almost inside one or the other of the aluminum surfaces. Figures 68-73 illustrate another exemplary embodiment of a burst / shrapnel containment panel. Associated with one or more sides of the panel is a refoaming layer, such as the fabrics discussed herein, which has a given amount of slack, such as a pouch, to facilitate the elastic expansion of the panel. The panel may or may not have other elastomeric material embedded in the polyurea different from the reinforcing or fabric layers. Figure 68 illustrates a panel 6800. Panel 6800 includes a polyurea or other portion of elastomeric material 6810 and a reinforcing layer 6820. Reinforcement layer 6820 can be secured to panel 6810 in one or more of the upper, lower part or sides, and through any way of joining including one or more of gluefastening, incrustation of a portion of the reinforcement layer 6820 in the polyurea or other portion of elastomeric material 6810, or the like. The reinforcing layer 6820 may also be associated with the panel 6810 through the use of one or more fasteners, adhesives, channels, or the like as discussed below with respect to Figure 73. Figures 69-72 illustrate the section views Alternative crossings of panel 6800 of figure 68 taken along AA. In Figure 69, the polyurea or other section of elastomeric material 6810 has the reinforcing layer 6820 embedded therein. The reinforcing layer 6820 also includes an expansion portion 6910 that allows for elongation of the polyurea or other portion of elastomeric material 6810. Figure 70 illustrates another association arrangement of the reinforcing layer 6820 with the polyurea or other portion of elastomeric material 6810. The ends of the reinforcing layer 6820 are embedded within the polyurea or other portion of elastomeric material 6810 in a manner to increase the retention between the reinforcing layer 6820 and the polyurea or other portion of elastomeric material 6810. Figure 71 shows the reinforcing layer 6820 wrapped around a portion of the polyurea or other portion of elastomeric material 6810. In addition to the wrapping , the reinforcement layer 6820 can also be secured to the polyurea or other portion of material elastomeric 6810 with an adhesive, mechanical fasteners or the like. In Figure 72 the strengthening layer 6820 is associated with the polyurea or other portion of elastomeric material 6810 through the use of brackets 7210. The brackets 7210 securely retain the strengthening layer 6820 and can be associated with the polyurea or other portion of elastomeric material 6810 through the use of fasteners, adhesive, or the like. Figure 73 illustrates a side view of an installed blast / shrap containment panel having a reinforcing layer 6820 and a polyurea or other portion of elastomeric material 6810 installed in a concrete wall 7300 with roof slabs 7310 and floor 7320. The fasteners 7330 are held through the burst / shrapper containment panel 6810 and the reinforcing layer 6820 on the upper and lower slabs positioned proximate the concrete wall 7300, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. The 7330 fasteners can be a Hilti® HSLB M 16/50 with a diameter of approximately 16 mm, which is manufactured by Hilti, Inc. of Tulsa, Oklahoma and described on page 155 of the Hilti® 2005 Product Technical Guide. In general, these fasteners can be installed by pre-drilling holes through the flaps 7340 and the portion of the reinforcing layer 6820 adjacent thereto and by inserting the fasteners through the flaps and into the slabs, with or without an adhesive epoxy on the threads of the fastener. In addition, a plate approximately 1/4"to 1/2" (0.635 cm to 1.27 cm) thick (not shown) can be fastened on the top of the flaps and the adjacent reinforcement layer 6820 by the fasteners. The reinforcing layer 6820 can also be wrapped around the plate prior to clamping. Threaded parts from 1/4"to 1/2" (0.635 cm to 1.27 cm) from the rod can also be used with screws and plate / washer / etc. as the bra. In this case, the rod can be treated with epoxy in a hole drilled in the slab, and the epoxy could be allowed to harden (up to 24 hours), the panel and plate / washer / etc. installed, and the nut fastened at the opposite end of the threaded rod. The size of the fastener, plate and type of epoxy may vary depending on the level of threat. While exemplified excessively for easy illustration, during a bursts, the force B is exerted on the concrete wall 7300. The concrete wall 7300 is buckled towards the burst / shrapnel containment panel. When the concrete wall is buckled, the polyurea or other portion of elastomeric material 6810 deforms in the direction B and fills the gap between the polyurea or other portion of elastomeric material 6810 and the reinforcing layer 6820 whereby it recovers the clearance and transfers the forces to the layer reinforcement 6820. The expansion portion, and consequently the length of the reinforcement layer, can be configured to allow a predetermined amount of elongation of the polyurea or other elastomeric material. For example, if 400-800% elongation of the polyurea or other elastomeric material is desired, the length of the polyurea or other portion of elastomeric material can be determined at this elongation and the reinforcing layer installed so that it substantially equals this length elongated. The reinforcing layer can therefore provide additional support when the polyurea or other elastomeric material reaches the elongated length. The panel 6800, and in particular the side of the panel with the reinforcing fabric, may also be coated with a foam coating of material that could allow a finishing product, such as paint, to be applied to the panel. Another exemplary embodiment of the invention relates to systems that are installed on or adjacent to a structure including windows, floor or roof in a structure or a side, lower or upper part of a vehicle to contain shrapnel and / or projectiles fired from a projectile launcher, and a method to produce such systems. The system includes producing pre-formed panels, which can be formed in a variety of ways, cut to size, as needed, and installed on or adjacent to a surface of a wall, floor, ceiling and / or door of a structure or one side, lower part, or upper part of a vehicle. The panels may, in part, be produced by spraying a polyurea or other elastomeric material specifically selected to facilitate the production process and operation of the finished panels, in the production of a material having improved tensile strength and elongation properties. The panels can also be produced by brushing, laminating and / or smoothing the polyurethane material or other elastomeric material to the desired thickness to form the finished panels. Alternatively, the polyurea material or other elastomeric material can be applied (i.e., spray, brush, laminate and / or smooth) and attached directly to the interior surface of a structural wall or building. In addition, one or more fabric reinforcement layers can be bonded and / or bonded together and to a first layer of elastomeric material and the layers can be covered by the second layer of elastomeric material. In still other embodiments, panels with multiple layers of fabric, as will be described herein, may also have applications in the personal body armor field. Elastomers such as polysiloxane, polyurethane and polyurea / polyurethane hybrids can be used as an alternative to polyurea in the construction of the panels or in the attachment of a layer or layers of the material directly to the wall. Fig. 74 is a top view of a diagram of a portion of a process for producing a burst / shrapnel / projectile containment panel, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. In Fig. 74, a first layer (Layer 1) of a fabric can be seen with a path in an up and down direction and an interweaving in a left-to-right direction and a second layer (Layer 2) of the fabric it is placed substantially perpendicular to the first layer so that the path in the second layer is in a left-to-right direction and the interweave is up and down. Although the alternate configuration of the path and interweaving of the layers is only described being perpendicular to each other, other configurations may also be used either alone or in combination, for example, diagonally in any increment between 0 and 180 degrees, diagonally off-center, same direction of travel and interwoven but off-center up and down and / or side by side, etc. In general, the layers can be arranged with any orientation between them. In an exemplary embodiment, a first layer may have been applied to one side, for example, an upper side, an epoxy layer and then a lower side of the second layer may be placed in an off-centered orientation with the first layer and then placed against the epoxy layer to form a multi-layer fabric component, the same can be seen in Figure 75 as Layers 1 and 2. Alternatively, the epoxy can be applied to the lower side of the second layer and then the second layer. layer can be positioned and placed against the first layer as described above. Still alternatively, Layers 1 and 2 can both be pre-treated with epoxy by spraying, laminating, brush painting, soaking, etc. prior to being placed against each other. In Figure 74, the pressure can and / or can not be applied to assist Layer 1 and Layer 2 to adhere and bond with the epoxy and reduce and / or remove the air pockets between the fabric layers. For example, the pressure can be applied by the use of a press, rollers and / or other pressure application means. Ideally, the pressure can be applied evenly across the entire surface of the development panel and to allow any air that may be trapped between the fiber layers to escape. The same pressure application can be used for each layer of fabric subsequently added and a final and / or single pressure can be applied to the entire fabric and epoxy layers. The epoxy can be applied by spraying as well as laminating, painting by brush and / or pouring on the first layer and each subsequent layer. The epoxy may be of any suitable air-curable and / or heat-curable epoxy material which generally has good wetting properties, for example, but not limited to, the General Polymers 3504 Epoxy High Strength Primer / Sealant from Sherwin-Williams Company. For ease of illustration of the process, the Layers 1 and 2 in Fig. 74 are shown as unique pieces dimensioned substantially equal, for example 1 'x 1' (2.54 cm x 2.54 cm). Larger panels that have various sizes and configurations are contemplated. For example, the panels may be sheets of square, round, oval, rectangular, and / or any other shape (e.g. 2 'x 2' (5.08 cm x 5.08 cm), 4 'x 8' (10.16 cm x 20.32 cm), 2 'x 4' (5.08 cm x 10.16 cm), 3.5 '(8.89 cm) in diameter) as well as conformal configurations variedly shaped. However, it is contemplated that the process will be implemented using automated equipment to facilitate the mass production of multiple modalities of the panels, as disclosed and described herein. The equipment described herein may be modified to include the application of fabric layers of alternate course / interweave configuration with epoxy between them, as described herein. For example, rolls, sheets and / or other cloth units that can be properly oriented before or during the process and the epoxy can be applied automatically between the layers by spraying, rolling, etc., in accordance with the embodiments of the present invention. In addition, alternative materials may be included in the panels, for example, other fabrics, materials and / or mesh materials, such as metal mesh, wire mesh, composite materials, or any combination thereof. Similar to the fabric, alternative materials can also be fed to the team of rolls, sheets and / or other units of materials in the proper orientation. In Figure 74, as well as the other related figures associated with this embodiment, the fabric may include fabrics produced from aramid yarns or fibers and / or polyester, with an open grid (opening between warp yarns and filling) in the order of 0.25 inches by 0.25 inches (0.635 cm by 0.635 cm). Smaller or larger grid opening sizes, however, are believed to be suitable for use. The tensile strength of the fabric used in the panels may be in the order of 1200 psi per 1200 psi. The fabric made of aramid fibers or yarns from Technora and Twaron produced by Teijin Fibers is believed to be particularly suitable for use in this application, for example, but not limited to, Technora T200 fabric with a 0.5"x grid opening. 0.25"(1.25 cm x 0.635 cm) and / or Twaron T1000 fabric with a grid opening of 0.25" x 0.25"(0.635 cm x 0.635 cm). In Figure 75, the result of the process shown and described in Figure 74 above is shown by Layers 1 and 2, to which another layer of epoxy can be applied to an upper side of Layer 2, or as described above in relation to figure 74, and a third layer (layer 3), which can be seen to have an up and down course and interwoven side by side, can be oriented and positioned appropriately on the upper side of the second layer to result in the configuration shown in Figure 76 as Layers 1-3. The alternate configuration and orientation of the fabric layers is to achieve a finished panel substantially free of direct paths through the original grid openings in the fabric layers . In other words, a panel having a substantially solid core of fabric layers offset and perpendicularly oriented. In Figure 76 the result of the process shown and described in Figures 74 and 75 above is shown by Layers 1-3, to which another layer of epoxy can be applied to an upper side of Layer 3, or as described above in relation to Figures 74 and 75, and a fourth layer (Layer 4), which can be seen to have a side-to-side path and an interweaving up and down, can be oriented and positioned appropriately on the upper side of the third layer to result in the configuration shown in Fig. 77 as Layers 1-4. Figs. 77-79 continue the process described in Figs. 74-76, which results in multiple layers of fabric with smaller and slightly smaller openings. As will be appreciated from the foregoing description, the process of the present invention can be continued until a panel having a substantially solid core of off-centered and perpendicularly oriented fabric layers has been achieved. To complete the panel manufacturing process, each surface (eg, top, bottom, and sides) of the partial panel described above can be coated with a polymer to produce a finished panel. The polymer can be applied to the upper and lower surfaces at thicknesses ranging from approximately 10 mils (0.0254 cm) (1 mil) = one thousandth of an inch) to 100 mils (0.254 cm) or more and sides to thicknesses ranging from approximately 5 mils to 30 mils (0.0127 cm to 0.0762 cm). The panel can be brushed using conventional methods to achieve a more uniform thickness and finish appearance. The panel can be finished in a mold that can have a predetermined thickness available for the polymer on each side. In general, panels are designed to have thicknesses ranging from approximately 0.50 inches to 2.0 inches or so (1.27 to 5.08 cm), including cloth and polymer layers. In addition, the panels are designed to have weights ranging from about 1 Ib per square foot to less than 10 pounds per square foot (4.88 kg / m2 to 48.8 kg / m2) with various area densities based on the specific type of level threat, for example, but not limited to, types I, II-A, II, III-A, III, IV, and Special Type specified in the National Institute of Justice (NU) Standard 0101.04, Revision A, June 2001, Ballistic Resisrance of Personal Body Armor. The number of layers of fabric in a panel is determined by the level of protection desired, which for certain embodiments of the present invention can be defined, for example, but not limited to, Standard NU 0101.04, Revision A, June 2001, which defines the operation and other equipment requirements shall be met to meet the needs of criminal justice agencies for high quality service. The panels can be installed using adhesives, lamination, mechanical fasteners and / or any combination thereof both with and without channels / guards and / or side washers on the door, wall, surface, ceiling and / or floor depending on the implementation and / or panel orientation. In addition, similar or different fasteners can be used with channels, protections, and / or washers to fasten the panels to a surface eg, nuts and bolts, rivets, etc. In general, in construction situations with application to concrete or similar material, the installation of a fastener may involve pre-drilling a hole through the panel and into the wall / ceiling / floor, optionally coating the fastener with an epoxy and Screwing the fastener with and / or without a protection / washer, etc. through the panel and into the hole until the fastener has been expanded or gripped to the internal walls of the hole. For example, fasteners used in the front of the concrete wall may include a Tap-con®, which is a concrete screw that grips the inner wall of the hole. Alternatively, the panels can be fabricated with hanging flaps in one, opposite and / or all sides of the panel similar to that previously described. In general, the flaps may not be as thick as the main body of the panel and may have some number of fabric layers of the main body extended within and through at least a portion of each flap. The number and extension of the layers in the flaps may vary depending on the requirements of each application. For example, for low threat requirements, as few as one, two, and / or three layers of fabric may only be necessary, while high / extreme threat requirements may require many layers of fabric on the flaps as in the main body of the panel. As a result, a variety of manufacturing methods can be used including, for example, manufacturing the panel with flaps as a single two-dimensional sheet and then folding the flaps in the desired configuration at the installation site when the panels are being installed. , or by molding the panels with the flaps in their already folded position as a three dimensional panel. Other alternative fastening methods may include pre-positioned fastening means, eg, channels, anchoring points, tabs, posts, etc., that the panels can be inserted into, over, under, etc. to hold in the desired position. Still further, another alternative may include forming the panel directly on, on and / or around the surface, etc. to be protected. In this alternative, the panel can be adhered to the surface by first applying (using one or more of the methods described herein) the outer polymer layer directly to the surface and immediately bonding the first layer of fabric, either with or without epoxy depending on the curing time of the polymer and when the first layer of fabric is applied to the polymer layer.

An alternative panel, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention starting from the top of the layers, is a first group of multiple layers of fabric, followed by a single layer of a wire mesh fabric, a second group of multiple layers. Fabric layers, a second layer of wire mesh fabric, a third group of multiple layers of fabric, a third layer of wire mesh fabric, and fourth group of multiple layers of fabric. As described above with reference to Figures 74-79, the fabric and wire mesh layers alternate in an off-center configuration and are treated with epoxy together to produce a panel as described and shown in Figures 74-79. Wire mesh layers should be placed and aligned relative to each other so that the path and interwoven configurations in the wire mesh layers are off-center and alternating similar to the fabric layers. In general, the wire mesh fabric can have a narrow / small interweave and be flexible in both directions, for example, but not limited to, 452 KP wire mesh fabric from GKD-USA of Cambridge, Maryland. The alternative modalities of the panels may include various numbers and arrangements of fabric layers, sheet metal and wire mesh fabric. For example, some of these modalities may include, but are not limited to, a seven-row panel with two exterior rows having five layers of fabric with three interior rows of a single layer of metal separated by two additional interior rows of cloth fabric of five layers, and all of which are joined together with epoxy and covered with polymer; the same panel as described precisely except that the two internal rows may contain more or less than five layers of fabric; a panel of eleven rows with two outside rows that have four layers of fabric with five inner rows of a single layer of metal separated by four additional interior rows of four-layer fabric felling, and all of which are joined together with epoxy and cover with polymer, etc. The number of fabric layers used in the outer and inner rows may be varied as necessary, but, in general, the entire configuration shall be symmetrical from along a flat centerline parallel to and between the front and rear surfaces of the panel . As described above with reference to Figs. 74-79, various configurations of alternate and off-center interweave configurations can be implemented in various modalities of panels containing the wire mesh fabric. Exemplary embodiments (all of which include the outer polymer coating) may include, but are not limited to, an epoxy panel and 26 layer fabric; a panel with epoxy and 40 layers fabric; a panel with epoxy and 100 layers fabric; and a 23 layer panel with 5 layers of fabric, followed by 1 layer of wire mesh, followed by 5 layers of fabric, followed by 1 layer of wire mesh, followed by 5 layers of fabric, followed by 1 layer of mesh of wire, and followed by 5 layers of cloth; and a 30 layer panel with 5 layers of fabric, followed by 1 layer of wire mesh, followed by 5 layers of fabric, followed by 1 layer of wire mesh, followed by 5 layers of fabric, followed by 1 layer of mesh of wire, followed by 5 layers of cloth, followed by 1 layer of wire mesh, followed by 5 layers of cloth, followed by 1 layer of wire mesh, and followed by 5 layers of cloth. In applications where two or more panels may be needed to cover a surface, they can be appropriately overlapped to 4 to 8 inches (10.16 cm to 20.32 cm) and may or may not be connected / bonded to each other and / or fastener to a wall through the overlapping section using mechanical fasteners, channels with mechanical fasteners, adhesives, etc. and / or any combination thereof. Alternatively, two or more panels may be adjacent side by side and may or may not be fastened to a wall using mechanical fasteners, channels with mechanical fasteners, adhesives and / or any combination thereof. In general, to provide the necessary level of protection, a length of panel material of equivalent protective strength as the panels to be installed can be fastened along the splice of two panels either on the front or back sides of the panels using any of the fastening methods previously described herein and / or a component of elastic tape that substantially covers all overlapping and / or adjoining seams. If a tape is used, it can be applied over an overlapping seam, generally on the side that will be inside the structure, along substantially the entire length of the seam. For example, the tape may include, but is not limited to, a Metal-Gard "E" tape system manufactured by Best Roofing Systems, Inc. of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Figures 80-82 illustrate exemplary burst / shrapnel / projectile containment panels. The panels in Figures 80-82 comprise the multi-layer panel 8000, as illustrated in Figures 74-79, coated on one or more sides with the polyurea or other elastomeric material. Figure 80 illustrates the panel 8000 having the polyurea or other elastomeric material 8010 on a first side. Figure 81 illustrates panel 8000 having the polyurea of another elastomeric material 8010 surrounding panel 8000. Figure 82 illustrates panel 8000 having polyurea or other elastomeric material 8010 on opposite sides. In general, the polyurea or other elastomeric material can be applied to one or more surfaces of the panel 8000 and can be interleaved between multiple panels 8000. An exemplary method for manufacturing a projectile-resistant panel includes supplying a first layer of fabric, providing a second layer. Fabric layer, provide an adhesive that secures the first layer of fabric to the second layer of fabric and apply at least one layer of elastomeric material covering at least a portion of the panel. The above description has been provided for illustrative purposes. Variations and modifications to the embodiments described herein may become apparent to persons of ordinary skill in the art in the study of this disclosure, without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. The specific features illustrated herein with respect to the specific embodiments may be used with any other modality described herein. It is noted that in relation to this date, the best method known to the applicant to carry out the aforementioned invention, is that which is clear from the present description of the invention.
