An object of the present invention is to provide a utility pole and a method for constructing the utility pole, which can simplify and improve efficiency of work at the time of new construction and replacement and can shorten a work period.

The anchor has a larger diameter than a body of a utility pole on the ground and has higher ground support force. Thus, the hole for building the assembly type utility pole on the ground can be made shallower than the hole for building the utility pole in related art on the ground. The depth of the hole is shallow, so that it is possible to reduce a period for digging, reduce a probability of hitting a buried object, and reduce work for confirming a buried object. In addition, the assembly type utility pole includes a plurality of parts, and thus, only a degraded portion needs to be replaced, so that it is possible to shorten replacement work. Further, the assembly type utility pole includes a plurality of parts, and thus, each part is smaller than that of the utility pole in related art, so that it is possible to simplify work.

The present invention provides a system which allows users to mount multiple pieces of equipment to a tower and it has the unique capability to adjust a steel frame to level without additional equipment. In accordance with a first preferred embodiment, the present invention includes a duel locking system that includes a taper adjusting bolt to adjustably position the frame level with the earth. Further, the dual locking system of the present invention preferably further includes the use of retaining bolts to keep the assembly positioned correctly. According to a further aspect of the present invention, once the taper adjusting bolt is in its desired position, the retaining bolts are preferably tightened to lock the frame in place, with the taper adjusting bolt acting as a redundant measure to help maintain the level state.

A hydraulic pole tamper handle kit having an extended ergonomic handle including a frame and hose clamps to extend the life of the hose by securing the hoses to the frame and to improve the handle, orientation, safety, and usability of the pole tamper. The pole tamper is used to tamp or compact the dirt around a pole which has been set into a hole in the ground to fixedly secure the pole vertically in the ground.

The invention has for object a system for assembling a tower for a wind generator consisting of a plurality of blocks, comprising: a structure for lifting each one of said blocks, and a structure for supporting said lifting structure, the lifting structure being moveable in relation to the support structure between a block-gripping position and a block-holding position, the lifting structure comprising a body for gripping each block.

A modular protective system (MPS) Expedient Guard Tower and Fighting Position meeting multiple criteria for deployment and re-deployment in austere combat environments is disclosed as well as methods of assembly. The MPS Expedient Guard Tower and Fighting Position is lightweight such that it can be easily deployed by helicopter, requires no tools or equipment to assemble, and can be assembled very quickly by a team of four to six soldiers. The Modular Protective System (MPS) Expedient Guard Tower and Fighting Position can be easily recovered, i.e., disassembled and redeployed to a different location and as the title of the invention suggests, it is capable of being constructed in a non-elevated position or an elevated position. Accordingly, it may be used either as a guard tower, a fighting position, or an inspection station, etc., depending upon the particular need.

A pole assembly which includes a pole, a hub being placed on the pole, the hub having a plurality of enclosed channels formed therein, a plurality of arm assemblies with each arm assembly having a vertical segment designed to fit within a respective channel and an arm extending outwardly from the vertical segment, and a finial designed to sit on top of an upper end of the pole, the finial having a spirit level incorporated therein.

A sonic drilling apparatus with adapter for emplacing columns includes a sonic drilling apparatus generating vibrational waves and having a fitting. An adapter is coupled to the fitting for removably attaching a column to the sonic drill apparatus. A centering assembly is positioned below the adaptor for receipt of a column therethrough.

A tilt tower including a mast fixed to the ground and a first swing arm. The tilt tower further includes a first bearing rotatably coupling the first swing arm to a first side of an upper end of the mast and a first adjustable counterweight system in an interior of a pivot end of the first swing arm. The first adjustable counterweight system allows for a controlled tilt of the swing arm of the tilt tower.

A method for installing a foundation in a ground for supporting a structure thereon, the method comprising the drilling of a main column borehole in the ground along an axis parallel to an axis of a force exerted by a load of the structure, inserting a main column into the main column borehole, drilling at least one anchor borehole at an angle away from the main column, inserting an anchor into each of the at least one anchor borehole, injecting a sealant into each of the at least one anchor borehole, after the sealant is dry securing a base to a top of the main column, securing to the base and placing under tension each anchor inserted into each of the at least one anchor borehole, the tension being such as to counteract radial forces to be induced by the structure to a longitudinal axis of the main column.

A land-based drilling rig includes a first substructure and a second substructure, the second substructure being positioned generally parallel to the first substructure. The land-based drilling rig also includes a drill rig floor coupled to the first and second substructures, the drill rig floor including a V-door. The side of the drill rig floor has the V-door defining a V-door side of the drill rig floor, where the V-door side of the drill rig floor is parallel to the first substructure. The first and second substructures pivotably support the drill rig floor. The land-based drilling rig also includes a mast, the mast mechanically coupled to one or more of the first substructure, the second substructure, and the drill rig floor. The mast is pivotably coupled to one or more of the first substructure, the second substructure, and the drill rig floor by a mast pivot point. The mast includes a V-door side, the V-door side of the mast parallel to the first or second substructure. In addition, the land-based drilling rig includes a mast hydraulic lift cylinder coupled to the mast at a mast lift point and a choke manifold, the choke manifold positioned on the drill rig floor.
