 Abstract

Abstract of WO 9634727 (A2) A method for manufacturing a constructional member, wherein a number of longitudinal elements which extend in at least one direction and which enhance at least the tensile strength of the constructional element in the or each relevant direction, are provided in a formwork (1) or a like mold cavity, after which the formwork (1) is further filled with a hardening slurry so that the longitudinal elements are surrounded by the slurry at least substantially on all sides, wherein the longitudinal elements are formed by discharging an amount of fibers (2) into the formwwork, which fibers (2) have a relatively slight length and section compared with the inside dimensions of the formwork (1), wherein the loose fibers (2) are introduced into the formwork (1) with a slight height of fall, so that at least locally the fibers (2); are oriented in the desired direction of pull so as to be substantially parallel.
