| 20100098502 | Socket wrench attachment for rotary drive member - A socket wrench attachment (SRA) is connected by a circular array of bolts ( | 04-22-2010 |
| 20100290842 | ECOLOGICAL RESTORATION BLOCK - An ecological restoration block installed to a predetermined height along rivers or river banks. The ecological restoration block includes a body, having a first cell in which earth and sand are stored, and second and third cells for storing water, provided on respective sides of the first cell, with partitioning walls therebetween, a first migration channel, formed diagonally on a front part of the body to make movement of animals possible, a cover provided on an upper part of the body to open an upper side of the first cell, and a flow pipe, which crosses the first cell and connects internal space of the second and third cells. The ecological restoration block of this invention can effectively preserve wild animals and plants by providing protective habitat at the front part of the body and by allowing the animals to move freely through the first and fourth migration channels. | 11-18-2010 |
| 20110058903 | Telescopic shoring system - This invention discloses a telescopic shoring system comprising rail posts composed by at least an outer member and an inner member, and large shoring panels. The outer member and inner member of the rail post have laterally, on either side, at least one panel guide allowing the shoring panels to slide within. The outer member of the rail post has a frontal guide adapted to interlock the back guide provided to the inner member but sliding relatively to each other. The shoring panels are arranged on each side of the excavation while the rail post are placed on each corner holding on either side the shoring panels which create a multi-stepped shoring box. The outer members of the rail post with shoring panels create an outer or upper shoring box while the inner members of the rail post in combination with shoring panels create an inner or lower shoring box. | 03-10-2011 |
| 20110135403 | BERM AND METHOD OF CONSTRUCTION THEREOF - A berm to increase capacity of an existing landfill comprises a reinforced portion and backfill material. The landfill comprises a waste-receiving recess having a surface and an outer perimeter, an edge surface peripherally adjacent at least a portion of the outer perimeter, and an existing accumulation of waste within the recess having a collective top surface. The reinforced portion has opposing inner and outer surfaces and comprises structural fill material and a plurality of reinforcing members disposed therein. The backfill material has an inner surface adjacent the inner surface of the reinforced portion. The backfill material comprises contaminated fill material and is at least partially encapsulated by an impermeable membrane. At least a portion of the berm sits on at least a portion of the edge surface of the landfill. Portions of the berm are substantially parallel to corresponding portions of the outer perimeter. | 06-09-2011 |
| 20110318116 | MODULAR VERTICAL SHORING SYSTEM WITH CYLINDRICAL INTERCONNECTED SLEEVES - Cylindrical, interconnected stacked vertical sleeves provide a vertical pit (or shaft shoring system) for use in subterranean construction projects. Large-diameter, interlocking fiberglass, plastic, or polymeric sleeves have an interlocking portion at the top and a second interlocking portion at the bottom, which allow sleeves to be safely and securely seated upon each other to build the vertical pit up to 20 feet deep. Lifting rings on the interior wall of the cylinders allow lifting, placement, and removal by a crane or other piece of heavy lifting equipment. | 12-29-2011 |
| 20120224926 | MECHANICALLY STABILIZED EARTH SYSTEM AND METHOD - A system and method of constructing a mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) structure is provided. A wire facing is composed of horizontal and vertical elements, where a soil reinforcing element is coupled to the wire facing at one or more crimps formed in either of the horizontal or vertical elements. A connection device may be inserted through an opening defined between the soil reinforcing element and the one or more crimps such that the soil reinforcing element may be coupled to the wire facing. A strut may be coupled to the top-most cross wire of the vertical element and the terminal wire of the horizontal element to maintain the vertical element at a predetermined angle with respect to the horizontal element as backfill is added to the wire facing. | 09-06-2012 |
| 20130022410 | WORKER'S CAGE FOR EXCAVATION WORK - Provided is a cage for protecting a worker in an excavation. The cage includes spaced apart side panels formed from a material suitably-strong to withstand a force exerted on the side panels by a collapsing wall of the excavation. A plurality of cross members extend between the side panels to substantially maintain a distance separating the side panels when subjected to the force exerted by the collapsing wall of the excavation. And a connection head that is cooperable with a coupler supported by a boom of a piece of mechanized equipment is included to couple the cage to the boom. The connection head is coupled to one or both of the side panels, one or more of the cross members, or one or both of the side panels and at least one of the cross members. | 01-24-2013 |
| 20150086278 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS TO REINFORCE EXCAVATION WALLS - A soldier pile wall for shoring an excavation site includes a plurality of drilled shafts drilled along an edge of the excavation site, a plurality of soldier piles, each of the plurality of soldier piles being positioned within a respective drilled shaft, and a pre-stressing system coupled to at least some of the plurality of soldier piles. The pre-stressing system is configured to induce stresses to counteract working stresses of the soldier pile wall. Related methods are also provided. | 03-26-2015 |
