The composite joist floor system includes joists supporting metal decking and a stand-off fasteners are spaced along the length of the joist Each fastener has an upper portion with a through hardness between HRB 70 and HRC 40 and a lower portion having a threaded portion with a through hardness of between HRB 70 and HRC 40 and a thread-forming portion adjacent the threaded portion with at least a HRC 50 hardness and failure torque to thread-forming torque of at least 3.0 and a drive torque at least 20% less than a thread-forming torque, and a fluted lead portion adjacent the thread-forming portion with a nominal diameter between 70 and 95% of major diameter of the threaded portion adapted to form a fastener opening. These stand-off fasteners extend into and are encapsulated by a cementitious slab supported by the metal decking to form a composite floor system.

A stabilizer is provided for attachment to the generally flat bar of a wood turning tool. The stabilizer comprises a generally cylindrical sleeve having a central axially extending slot sized to receive the flat bar of the tool. The tool and stabilizer combination is rotatably supported on a tool rest associated with a lathe, such that the combination contacts the tool rest at a point that is vertically aligned with any point along the cutting blade of the cutting tool, substantially eliminating any rotational torque that could otherwise be generated as the cutting tool is moved into cutting engagement with the turning wood.

Methods, systems and apparatus for determining a current state of an order book for order request reconciliation. A customer inputs an order request for a desired quantity of items to be shipped to a recipient into the system. A supplier inputs a shipment quantity of any such previously shipped items into an input table, while a recipient inputs into another table a receipt quantity of any such received items. These input shipment and receipt quantities are then transmitted to a reconciliation program of the system for determining an in-transit quantity that is used along with the receipt quantity to generate an updated, current state of the order book. This current state of the order book substantially avoids any over-shipments, under-shipments and unwanted inventory returns. A Materials Requirement Planning component then generates an order book reconciliation output table for viewing by users using the current state of the order book.
摘要:
A fastener, method of fastening, a fastener and drive tool system, and a drive tool for driving a fastener in which the fastener has a leading portion or drill tip portion which is frangible and detachable from the threaded portion. The fastener includes a shank having a head formed at one end, the leading portion or drill tip at an opposite end thereof, and the threaded portion positioned intermediate the head and drill portion. A weakened or frangible portion is provided on the shank between the drill tip and the threaded portion for dividing the fastener into the threaded portion which is retained in engagement with the workpieces and the drill tip which is detached from the fastener. The method includes driving the fastener into a workpiece and detaching or fracturing the drill tip from the threaded portion generally at a predetermined location. The detachment or frangible portion is formed to facilitate fracture at a predetermined area along the shank either manually or automatically as a function of the structure of the fastener and/or the fastener driving process. The present invention also includes the tool included in the fastener system which is used to drive the fastener into a workpiece. The tool includes an interference block having a surface which promotes fracture and detachment of the drill from the threaded portion when the drill portion abuts and is deflected by the surface.

Methods, systems and apparatus for supplier collaboration and data accuracy within a materials requirement planning scenario. An external supplier is easily integrated into an inter-enterprise planning engine by generating uniquely modified external supplier input files that only include demand information, inventory coverage, and bills of material data associated with the external supplier. This modified external supplier data is used to integrate the external supplier into the planning engine, and for generating a requirements build that fulfills a build plan input into the planning engine. The planning engine is preferably an online planning engine, such that, the requirements build may be validated by inputting the most currently available supplier input data into the planning engine for generating a new, updated requirements build online substantially in real time for fulfilling the build plan.

Methods, systems and apparatus for exhausting surplus inventory within currently existing supplies. Intra-enterprise and inter-enterprise lists of surplus inventories are input into a planning engine along with allocation rules for establishing priorities and preferences of allocating and exhausting parts within existing inventories. The planning engine also receives central parameter file inputs for identifying those parts within surplus inventory that can be allocated to other enterprises. Using an identifier of a requested part, the planning engine then analyzes the lists of surplus inventories for compatible parts, and builds hierarchy allocation plans using selected inputs dependent upon which list the compatible parts are located. These hierarchy allocation plans are output in tables for allowing a user to select a plan that exhausts surplus inventory prior to such inventory being declared as excess. Reports are also output for providing demand forecasts of the surplus inventory based on the output hierarchy allocation plans.
