A system and methods for the storage, and preservation of mechanical assets, including collectable automobiles, small airplanes and watercraft in a storage unit. The storage unit includes a plurality of asset modules. The volume of each asset module is variable. The atmosphere of each asset module may be controlled by a control system. Control of the atmosphere of each asset module includes control of parameters including the type of gas each atmosphere is composed of and the temperature, the pressure and relative humidity of each atmosphere. These parameters may be monitored and controlled from a remote location.

A position detection system is provided as including (i) a sound wave apparatus in a predetermined designated area and (ii) a detection terminal. The sound wave apparatus transmits a sound wave on which position information including a position of its own is superimposed as a detection sound wave. The detection terminal receives the detection sound wave, acquires the position information superimposed on the received detection sound wave, and stores the acquired position information as information indicating the position of the designated area.

A corbel for a wall including a corbel sleeve having a longitudinal passage for extending into the wall. At least one upright or vertically oriented elongate reinforcement member can be secured to the corbel sleeve and extend upwardly and downwardly therefrom for structurally engaging internal portions within the wall for structurally supporting the corbel sleeve. A corbel extension can have an insertion end and a support end. The insertion end can be inserted into the longitudinal passage of the corbel sleeve and secured therein. The support end can extend from the corbel sleeve and the wall, for example laterally, for supporting a load applied thereon.

A solar power generation assembly includes a vertical support column; a canopy including a plurality of solar modules for solar power generation; a first brace and a second brace on a first side of the support column to support the canopy; a third brace and a fourth brace on a second side of the support column to support the canopy; and a gutter system integrated into the canopy and directing precipitation along one or more of the second brace and the fourth brace to the support column. One or more of the first brace and the third brace manage electrical cables extending from the canopy to the support column.
