Decorative Concrete Ideas for Design and Durability



The general opinion that concrete surfaces for outdoor spaces like pedestrian plazas and sidewalks are dull and grey is going to change forever thanks to innovative companies like Pavement Surface Coatings. Concrete and asphalt in public areas can now virtually take any color, shape, and texture through new age polymer based concrete materials like Endurablend.
The main reason that concrete is the feasible option for decorators, builders and buyers is its affordability. Yet no one can make out that concrete is a cheap material from its look, feel and effect. The decorative surfacing of concrete has led to immense popularity in areas that have high footfalls such as airport runway and taxiway surfaces, bridge decks, sea walls, and bus and bike lanes.

Why Are Good Road Markings Important?

Usually, pedestrians traveling through crosswalks or sidewalks depend upon the signage and markings along the road to guide them and direct them towards the correct direction. Typically, only a glance at these markings is enough to guide us along the path. If these markings and signs are not appropriate or incur some wear and tear, it can be risky for the pedestrian. Also, if the experts do not overlay crosswalks with some form of a   decorative concrete surface, then the overall dull grey look becomes too weary to walk on. With this philosophy in mind, the City of Las Vegas embraced new-age concrete overlay technologies. They used thermoplastic with a brick pattern on a crosswalk. The application of Endurablend removed the issue with bonding and premature wear and tear.  The problem  Due to the conditions of the street and crosswalk, the markings wore off quickly from the concrete or asphalt surfaces. The existing materials used in the concrete overlay was...

Taxiway Surface Marking

Image
Taxiways are defined as the paths that are used for the taxiing of aircraft from one part of an airport to another. Taxiway centerlines are marked to provide a visual identification of the designated taxiing path. Have you ever been to the airport or had an aircraft trip experience? When you are inside the aircraft, and when you are peeping through the window when landing or take off, you might have looked at some yellow, white, or black lines moving towards the runway, right? These are called the taxiway lines. It is the line that connects the runway with several other areas of the airport. These taxiways are made of the concrete or asphalt, and they are similar to the runway surfaces, but it is pretty solid. These taxiways will connect with the terminal, runway, or the hangar. Generally, only some authorized people, such as the airport personnel like pilots, will be allowed inside the taxiway due to some security reasons. The different aspects like the signs, lights with di...

Reasons why city planners always rely on us when they need green bicycle road markings

Bike lane markings are used to designate areas of the road that are used by bicyclists. It allows motorists and bicyclists to drive separately from one another, which creates a safe traffic environment for everyone on the road. Here at Pavement Surface Coatings LLC, we help our clients to create the following types of biking lanes:         Conventional Bike Lanes:  Used to designate lanes for bicyclists driving in parallel with motorists and bus drivers.         Left-side Bike Lanes:  Designate biking lanes on one-way streets divided by a median         Buffered Bike Lanes :  These add space between the bicyclist and the parking lane         Contra-Flow Bike Lanes:  These are lanes for bicyclists going against the flow of traffic         Cycle tracks:  Used for tracks where there is no motor traffic       Spot Treatment in Areas of C...
