MODULAR PLATFORM DECK FOR TRAFFIC
A modular assembly and method of installing a modular assembly is provided. The modular assembly can include a plurality of base members made of a plastic material, each base member including a top surface and a bottom surface opposite of the top surface, the bottom surface defining channels. A plurality of support members can be provided, each of the plurality of support members may extend across the plurality of base members and disposed within the channels of the plurality of base members. A mounting bracket can be configured to mount each of the plurality of support members to a metal plate of a lower support structure, the metal plate being received by a clamp of the mounting bracket. Each of the plurality of base members can adjoin one another to form a horizontal platform for traffic.
Modular engineered wood composite road
A method of making a modular engineered wood composite road (40) includes determining a bearing strength of the soil at a location where the modular engineered wood composite road will be installed; determining a bearing strength of the soil at a location where a modular engineered wood composite road (40) will be installed; determining a flexural strength and stiffness required for the modular engineered wood composite road (40) based on the determined bearing strength of the soil at the location where the modular engineered wood composite road (40) will be installed; assembling a plurality of engineered wood composite billets (46) from a plurality of composite wood laminations, wherein each engineered wood composite billet (46) has the required flexural strength and stiffness; and assembling the engineered wood composite billets (46) to define the modular engineered wood composite road (40).

Lifting and leveling insert for a precast concrete slab
An insert for lifting and leveling a precast concrete slab is provided. The insert includes a sleeve that extends through the concrete slab and has two distinct threaded portions on an inner surface of the sleeve. This configuration allows a lifting bolt to be positioned into an upper end of the sleeve to lift the concrete slab, and a different-sized leveling bolt to be positioned in the sleeve to selectively elevate or raise part of the concrete slab relative to a ground surface.

PRECAST CONCRETE WALL WITH ELEVATED ROADWAY AND METHOD FOR CONSTRUCTING WALL
A precast concrete wall on a prepared subgrade, comprises standardized, precast, reinforced concrete foundation, wall and cap modules. The cap modules include parapets on opposed sides and an elevated roadway therebetween. A plurality of tie down rods, each extending through the cap modules, two or more courses of wall modules and at least partially into the foundation modules. An optional anti-tunneling barrier is provided in the subgrade, below the foundation. A method of constructing the wall includes specifying standardized reinforced concrete foundation, wall and cap modules so that they can be manufactured by multiple suppliers, and providing a logistical model to minimize shipping costs by matching each point of fabrication with the appropriate point of delivery.
