Structure forming method and apparatus

A method of forming a continuous composite structure including the steps of preselecting a liquid reactive resin forming material, a catalyst, an inhibitor, a particulate solid additive material and a porous blanket, measuring ambient temperature, determining relative proportions of said resin forming material, said catalyst and said inhibitor based on said ambient temperature and said porous blanket, mixing said additive particles with said predetermined proportions of said resin forming material, said catalyst and said inhibitor substantially continuously, encapsulating substantially all of said additive particles with said catalyzed and inhibited resin forming material, forming a pool of said mixture on said blanket while it is moving over an elongated arcuate surface disposed in a preselected orientation, advancing said mixture-treated blanket while migrating part of said catalyzed and inhibited resin forming material through said blanket substantially uniformly prior to gelling of said material to form a continuous resin matrix within said blanket, grasping a leading edge of said matrix/blanket along substantiallly its entire width, advancing said leading edge away from said arcuate surface along a preselected path, grasping opposite edges of a preselected length of said matrix/blanket structure, creating a preselected tension in said structure length, maintaining said tension while transferring said structure length to a final location, depositing said structure length on a final surface while said length is flexible and adhesive, and applying pressure to form a tight bond therebetween.
