Verfahren zur Erzeugung einer lasttragenden Oberfläche

摘要

A method of creating a locating or load bearing surface having a desired flatness or profile. The method comprises: a) providing a base (1) on which the surface is to be created; b) locating a moulding member (18,19) having a master surface (20,21) with the desired flatness or profile facing and spaced from the base; c) supplying a curable material (30) to a region between the base and the master surface whereby the curable material contacts both the base and the master surface; d) curing the curable material; and, e) removing the moulding member (18,19) so as to leave the surface having the desired flatness or profile provided on the exposed surface of the cured material.
