Zusammenfassung:	In an exemplary embodiment, a system (300) for forming a flexible mat (74) having an open mesh (358) embedded in and interconnecting a plurality of blocks (76) of a hardened paste includes a rotating drum (314) having a plurality of mold cavities (324) about an outer periphery thereof that receive a hardenable paste (25); a sheet of the open mesh that is fed over the mold cavities so that the mesh is embedded in the hardenable paste deposited in the mold cavities; and a flexible sheet (302) that is placed against the outer periphery of the drum over the mold cavities containing the hardenable paste and the sheet of open mesh of the rotating drum to retain the hardenable paste within the mold cavities and retain the open mesh embedded in the hardenable paste as the hardenable paste solidifies to form the flexible mat.
