Various implementations include a system for coupling a post to a foundation. The system includes a rod having a first rod end and a second rod end. The first rod end is spaced apart from a top surface of the foundation, and the second rod end is coupled to the foundation. The post has at least one side wall at least partially defining an inner cavity and an inner tube disposed within the inner cavity and coupled to the at least one side wall. The inner tube has a first tube end and a second tube end that is closer than the first tube end to a bottom end of the post. A portion of the rod is disposable within the inner tube such that the first rod end is axially spaced apart from the first tube end. The first rod end is couplable to the first tube end.

A pre-fabricated load bearing structural assembly includes a foundation, a pole, and a cap. At least one of the foundation and the cap is unitary fabricated with at least one internal cellular and/or volumetric enclosure that transfers lateral and axial stresses away from the pole. A pole section disposed inside a foundation pole cavity is configured to rest on a corresponding support structure centrally disposed at the bottom of the cavity. The pole section exterior wall/s profile and dimensions in proximity to the pole cavity aperture is/are precisely defined. At least one cap, precisely fabricated, fills in the gap between the exterior wall/s of the pole and the inner wall/s of the pole cavity in proximity to the aperture opening of the pole cavity. The pole resting on the corresponding centrally disposed structure at the bottom of the pole cavity is plumbed by the precisely fabricated cap.

A system for positioning post sleeves is provided including a plurality of post sleeve positioning devices and a spacing mechanism. Each post sleeve positioning device is configured to receive a respective post sleeve and to enable selective adjustment of a position and orientation of the respective post sleeve. The spacing mechanism is coupleable between the pair of post sleeve positioning devices to determine or control the position and orientation of the post sleeve received by one of the pair of post sleeves positioning devices relative to the post sleeve received by the other one of the pair of post sleeve positioning devices. Related systems and methods are also provided.

In a locking system for a rotating foot of a mast, particularly of a mast for a free arm standing parasol, the mast is rotatable about an axis of rotation (A) defined by the rotating foot and comprises a surrounded mast region. The locking system comprises an operating lever for releasing or locking of the rotating foot which is arranged on the mast at a comfort height (H) of 0.5 to 1.5 m above the rotating foot, wherein the operating lever is movable between a folded-out position and a downwardly folded-in position and thereby cooperates via a lifting bar with stationary engaging elements of the rotating foot, wherein the lifting bar is raised in the release position and lowered in the locking position. To improve operability and operational security, the lifting bar is arranged at a distance from the axis of rotation (A) and externally of the surrounded mast region.

A bracket device for use with a misaligned post, the bracket comprising a first bracket portion for receiving a first end portion of the post, a second bracket portion for receiving a second end portion of the post, a pivoting means between and connected to the first bracket portion and the second bracket portion, wherein one or more angles of the misaligned post is adjusted using the pivoting means to correct the alignment of the post. The pivoting means includes a locking mechanism to secure the angle of the post. The bracket device may be installed on a fence that is in place, enabling repairs without removing the fence. As well, the bracket device may be utilized as part of the initial installation and construction of a new fence.

A system includes a power tool that has a rotation output shaft for rotationally driving a levelling mechanism for a structural attachment and has a rotation drive mechanically connected to the rotation output shaft to rotationally drive the rotation output shaft. The system further includes a remote unit that has a first structural attachment contact structure where the first structural attachment contact structure is contactable with the structural attachment and where the remote unit is detached from the power tool. The system additionally includes a control arrangement that has an orientation device configured to provide orientation data relating to an orientation of the first structural attachment contact structure and has a drive controller which is connected to both the rotation drive and the orientation device where the drive controller is configured to influence action of the rotation drive in response to orientation data provided by the orientation device.

A post joint assembly and a method are provided. The assembly includes an upper cup member having a flat top wall, a tubular wall, a flange portion, and a threaded stud. The assembly further includes a lower cup member having a parabolic dish portion, a tubular portion, and a beaded edge portion. An outer surface of the parabolic dish portion is disposed against an inner surface of the flange portion of the upper cup member such that the threaded stud extends through a first hole in the lower cup member. The assembly further includes a tensioner cup having a second hole with the threaded stud extending therethrough. The assembly further includes a nut threadably coupled to the threaded stud such that the nut urges the tensioner cup against the lower cup member, and further urges the lower cup member against the upper cup member.

An adjustable railing post-to-substrate embed system for anchoring a railing post having a railing base with plural railing base anchor holes includes: a plate, having anchor holes; a plurality of nuts, a first end of each nut being arranged proximate a respective one of the anchor holes, the first end of each nut being configured to be selectively and removably threadingly engaged, via the respective anchor hole, with one selected from the group consisting of: respective upper protective bolts, and respective bolts of the railing base; and a plurality of anchors, each being configured to adjustably threadingly engage a second end of a respective one of the nuts, distal the respective anchor hole, each of the anchors being individually adjustable in length by threadable engagement with the second end of the respective one of the nuts.
