ABSTRACT:
A ground cover with an improved resistance to degradation by freezing and thawing, a kit for the manufacture of the ground cover and a method for manufacturing such a ground cover. The ground cover has a plurality of molds each having a bottom wall and side walls. The molds have their bottom walls laying flat onto the ground and are positioned with their side walls in close adjacent relationship with respect to each other so as to fully cover the ground. Connectors of given flexibility extend through the side walls of pairs of adjacent molds in order to connect the molds to each other. A filling material is poured and hardened into said molds. The filling material acts as a covering. Once installed, the ground cover forms a network that can easily be adapted to floor surfaces of different shapes. The cover is prepared by attaching together similar units made from a kit consisting of the molds and the connectors of given flexibility. Of course, the number of elements in the kit is proportional to the surface to be treated. When connected together, the molds can receive the filling material which is preferably concrete. When cured and hardened, the filling material, together with the flexible connectors and the molds, provide the cover with a high resistance to degradation due to freezing or to thawing, thereby making them suitable for countries like Canada or the northern part of the United States.
