Abstract:
Improvements in and relating to installing posts Disclosed is an apparatus for securing and aligning an attached post in a pile, the apparatus comprising: a top plate for attaching to an upper surface of the pile, the top plate having an aperture through which passes the post; a plurality of adjusters, each connected to a first end of a linkage rod, which is connected at its opposite end to an associated pile engaging member, such that operation of each adjuster causes the associated pile engaging member to engage with an interior wall of the pile.
Abstract:
An anti-corrosion support device includes a post and a post protector that is disposed about a bottom portion of the post. An interior surface of the post protector is sized and shaped to fit tightly over an exterior surface of the bottom portion of the post. The anti-corrosion support device also may include an adjustment foot that passes through an aperture formed through a bottom portion of the post protector into an attachment member mounted to the post. An anti- corrosion support system includes several of the anti-corrosion support devices, shelf supporting means, and one or more shelves.
Abstract:
A system for reducing drag and/or vortex induced vibration of a structure, the system comprising a multiple sided device comprising from 4 to 6 sides.
Abstract:
A foundation pile has an innermost element (2), a structural tubular element (4) surrounding the innermost element (2) and composed of a non-metallic material. There is a tubular layer (6) of composite material surrounding the structural tubular element (4) and connected with the latter. There is a friction coating (5) applied on an outer surface of the layer of composite material (6).
Abstract:
In a concrete column supporting an overhead load and having a base end resting on a surface, a process of strengthening the column to increase its ability to withstand atypical physical loading accompanying an earthquake, involving the steps of defining a work area about the surface of the column to which the strengthening is to be applied, the work area defined by circumferential marginal edges arranged in spaced-apart relation; overwrapping the work area with at least one layer of high-strength, stretchable fibers wherein the fibers are oriented at an angle to the vertical axis of the column; applying a coat of hardenable material, having a modulus at least as great as that of the fibers, over the layer of fibers to form a hard outer shell thereover; and, injecting a quantity of a hardenable, low-shrink liquid under the layer of fibers and over the surface of the work area in an amount sufficient to cause the fibers to undergo stretching from about 1/2% to about 4% of their elongation.
Abstract:
An adjustable width split sleeve (13) adapted to be securely wrapped around an elongate member (15). Each end of the sheet is wrapped around a respective first rod. Each first rod is rotated about a second which is parallel and adjacent to the first rod but which is separate from the first rod by the sheet (14). The first and second rods may be positioned various distances from the edges of the sheet to provide a tongue (37) to seal the gap between the sheet ends (15). Each end of the sheet (14) is securely gripped between the respective first and second rods. A fastener (11) is also disclosed for securing the protective sleeve (13) around an elongate member (15). The fastener (11) includes clips having a chamber and an entryway adapted to receive and retain the end (27, 33) of the protective sleeve (13).
Abstract:
A continuity connection system is disclosed that is highly durable, simple to install, and substantially increases the structural capabilities and weight-bearing capacity of a shell (i.e., a form or jacket). The shell can be used to protect a weight-bearing member (e.g., a cement column) from a degrading environment. The shell can have one or several layers of carbon fiber fabric (e.g., spaced apart longitudinally) wrapped around an interior of the shell or embedded within the shell. The continuity connection system is used to provide continuity between two ends of the carbon fiber layer, and can be made up of the carbon fiber fabric reinforcement layer, two pockets, and a laminate having ends positioned in each pocket. The carbon fiber laminate traverses a seam/separation of the carbon fiber fabric and/or a seam of the shell and can be retained in place within the pockets with an appropriate epoxy, for example.
Abstract:
A ground mounting assembly, system and methods for ground mounting a structure include one or a plurality of posts, each of which are attached to at least one stabilizing plate. The posts may be at least partially positioned underground, with the stabilizing plates being buried to a depth of, for example, about 1 foot. Posts in a front portion of the mounting assembly optionally may be connected to an adjacent one of posts in a back portion of the assembly by a cross member. A ground mounted post that is driven them lifted to deploy uplift members. A ground mounting system based on a double pounder pile driven mono pole is also described.
Abstract:
A pile casing comprising a hollow that extends through an entire length of the pile casing, wherein the pile casing is manufactured of a first material selected from the group consisting of a polymer material and a composite material comprising a polymer material and at least one of glass fibers, carbon fibers, steel fibers and wood. A pile comprising such a pile casing and a filling that fills the hollow, wherein the filling comprises at least one material selected from the group consisting of sand, gravel, concrete, wood, glass, glass fibers, metal, carbon fibers, steel fibers, basalt fibers, asphalt, asphalt concrete, and a composite comprising at least one material selected from the group consisting of sand, gravel, concrete, wood, glass, glass fibers, metal, carbon fibers, steel fibers, basalt fibers, asphalt and asphalt concrete.
