The invention relates to a plug connection between two tubular workpieces (1, 2) which are made of concrete and each of which has an inner liner (5) made of plastic, one of which forms a tip end (3) and the other a socket end (4) receiving the tip end (3), wherein the inner liners (5) have circumferential sealing flanges (12) which cover the end face (13) of the tip end (3) or the socket face (14) and wherein a joint seal (16) is provided between the sealing flanges (12). In order to provide advantageous structural conditions, it is proposed that the inner liners (5) are provided with a circumferential elastomer angled profiled section (8, 9) at the end face, which receives the circumferential edge of the inner liner (5) in an end-face profiled groove (11) of its axially parallel limb (10) and whose limb at a right angle to the axis forms the sealing flange (12).

The disclosure is directed to a discharge system for usage in fluid transportation. Further, embodiments relate to a discharge system comprising a plurality of discharge apparatuses that may remove a fluid from one area and transport it to another area. A discharge system may comprise a first discharge apparatus, wherein the first discharge apparatus comprises a tubular, wherein the tubular comprises a plurality of sections, a central bore, a first opening, and a second opening; and a second discharge apparatus, wherein the second discharge apparatus comprises the tubular.

A trench drain defining a channel and having an accessory rib allowing the convenient attachment of accessories to the sides of a drain in order to facilitate the installation of a trench drain, place drain outlets at any convenient places along the trench drain, and to create right angle joints between two trench drains.

A valve box assembly includes a pipe within the valve box assembly, a valve coupled to the pipe and a radio-frequency identification tag within the valve box assembly.

A semi-round drain body includes an upper surface and a drain hole extending through the upper surface. The upper surface includes a first straight edge, a second straight edge disposed opposite to the first straight edge, a first curved edge, and a second curved edge disposed opposite to the first curved edge. The drain hole is disposed between the first and second straight edges and between the first and second curved edges. The first curved edge connects a first end of the first straight edge and a first end of the second straight edge to each other, and the second curved edge connects a second end of the first straight edge and a second end of the second straight edge to each other.

A tile drain and method of installing a tile drain is provided. The tile drain includes a drain body and a drain cover. The drain body defines a top opening, top weep apertures, and bottom weep apertures. The top opening receives the drain cover and serves as the primary drain for the tile drain. The top weep apertures are positioned below a top layer, such as a tile layer, of the base so as to receive fluid positioned between the top layer and a top waterproofing layer of the base. The sub weep apertures are positioned below the top waterproofing layer of the base so as to receive fluid positioned between the top waterproofing layer and a bottom waterproofing layer of the base. The drain body is encapsulated within the base, but the drain cover is adjustable relative to, and removable from, the drain body.

A channel drain for use in a fabricated surface having an exposed appearance. The channel drain includes a first body having a plurality of support surfaces, with each support surface extending from a respective body sidewall in spaced relation to a body lower wall. A plurality of inserts are insertable into the first body. Each insert includes an insert cavity sized and structured to receive a selected material having an appearance substantially identical to the exposed appearance of the fabricated surface. Each insert is supported by certain ones of the plurality of support surfaces when inserted into the first body and is sized and structured to define a gap between the pair of body sidewalls when inserted into the first body, with the gap allowing for fluid to flow therethrough toward the body lower wall.

A contamination unit for isolating a building from contamination of a sewer is disclosed. The contamination unit includes a housing with an inlet and an outlet, a trap assembly, and a fluid trigger. The inlet is in fluid communication with a fluid source, plumbing equipment, and/or condensating equipment to receive fluid. The housing has a reservoir to collect the fluid therein and to define a reservoir portion of a contamination barrier about the outlet. The trap assembly includes a trap conduit between the outlet and the sewer that is shaped to collect the fluid therein and define a trap portion of the contamination barrier. The fluid trigger is positionable about the housing to selectively release the fluid through the inlet and into the reservoir of the housing whereby the fluid in the contamination barrier is maintained to prevent the contamination from passing from the sewer into the building.
