Membranes are provided which minimize reflective cracking in the repair of roads. The membrane comprises a reinforcement along with a binder having a high modulus of elasticity and a binder having a low modulus of elasticity. The high modulus binder impregnates the reinforcement and is adhered to the distressed road whereas the low modulus of elasticity material is adhered to the impregnated reinforcement and is used in contact with the subsequently applied asphaltic overlay.

The disclosure embraces a method of and apparatus for processing heat-softened fiber-forming mineral material, such as glass, to form fibers or filaments and particularly embraces a bushing block arrangement having one or more glass flow passages configurated to provide a minimum of contact of the bushing block with the glass in the flow passage or passages to stabilize the operating characteristics of a bushing or stream feeder, effect conservation of heat and improve bushing performance.
