| 20110044767 | Composite Cap - The disclosure describes, in part, apparatuses and methods for installing structures (e.g., foundations, footings, anchors, abutments, etc.) at work sites, such as difficult-access work sites. In some instances, a rotating drill assembly is assembled over a target location in order to excavate a radial array of batter-angled shafts associated with the target location in preparation for the installation of a radial array of micropiles. An operator utilizes the rotating drill in combination with a foundation pile schedule/decision matrix to design and install the radial array of batter-angled micropiles. This disclosure also describes techniques for designing, fabricating and installing structural caps to be coupled to the installed radial array batter angled micropiles. These structural caps are lightweight and, thus, more portable to difficult-access sites where they are coupled to the micropiles forming a foundation for structure to be installed at the difficult-access site. | 02-24-2011 |
| 20110044768 | Batter Angled Flange Composite Cap - The disclosure describes, in part, apparatuses and methods for installing structures (e.g., foundations, footings, anchors, abutments, etc.) at work sites, such as difficult-access work sites.

An operator utilizes the rotating drill in combination with a foundation pile schedule/decision matrix to design and install the radial array of batter-angled micropiles. This disclosure also describes techniques for designing, fabricating and installing structural caps to be coupled to the installed radial array batter angled micropiles.

| 20110305526 | End Piece For Arcuate Void Forms - A universal end wall component for closing the open side of an arcuate end or circular void form, used for creating space between expansive soils and a concrete structure, comprising, an elongated panel having crenellated upper and lower edges forming a plurality of spaced apart tabs that are bendable to form fastening surfaces for attaching the end wall component to the upper and lower panels of the void form. | 12-15-2011 |
| 20140356076 | PILE CAP CONNECTORS - Pile cap connectors are attached to pipe piles and are secured to an existing building so that the existing building is supported by an array of the deeply driven pipe piles which serve as the foundation for the building. Alternative pile cap connectors are length adjustable to span the distance between the top of the drill driven pipe piles and the underside of the lifted existing building. The pile cap connectors are an integral part of a method using low-overhead equipment to construct a deep piling foundation for an existing building where the method involves lifting the existing building to a predetermined elevation above grade and positioning cribbing stacks to support the existing building at the predetermined elevation above grade. The cribbing stacks are spaced from each other enabling low-overhead equipment to maneuver underneath the elevated building to drill drive the pipe piles at designated locations to provide optimal support for the building. Grout is pumped under pressure into the pipe piles continuously during the drill driving of the pipe piles so that grout exits through a grout port to mix with disturbed soil about the pipe pile to encase the pipe pile in a grout-soil mixture. | 12-04-2014 |

| 20080304919 | Adjustable pier/footing cap for creating an adjustable building foundation - I have invented an apparatus for creating an adjustable foundation, for residential and light commercial structures, that are supported on concrete drilled piers or concrete pad footing supports. The apparatus is an adjustable pier/footing cap, added to conventional drilled piers/footings at the time of foundation construction; said drilled piers are commonly used to support a building foundation in expansive soil areas and/or in other areas where upper bearing soils are weak or incompetent. The adjustable pier/footing caps are partially imbedded in the concrete drilled piers/footings when the piers/footings are poured and then into the foundation walls of the building when said foundation walls are poured. Upon settling or upheaval of the foundation, the adjustable pier/footing caps can be adjusted to lower or raise the building without replacing the drilled pier/footing with an expensive remedial piering device, and without substantial excavation around the foundation. | 12-11-2008 |
