Border walls and related systems and methods
12116798 · 2024-10-15 · ·

Border walls and related systems and methods are disclosed. A border wall may include a plurality of bollard fence sections adapted for engagement with corresponding base members. Each fence section may include a plurality of bollards. Each base member may include a plurality of openings extending downwardly from a top surface of the base member partially into the base member. The openings in the top of a base member are adapted for engagement with individual corresponding bollards on a bollard fence section. At least one of the bollards is matched to a corresponding opening in the base member so that the matched bollard, when inserted into and engaged with its corresponding matched opening, may function to support and/or align the bollard fence section. The base members may also include connectors, and/or mating alignment notches and protrusions, to facilitate joining and/or leveling of the base members to form a stable wall.

Wind screen for one or more photovoltaic arrays and method thereof. For example, a wind screen for one or more photovoltaic arrays includes a screen foundation including a concrete block, and one or more perforation blocks on the concrete block. In another example, the wind screen is configured to cover at least a first side of each array of the one or more photovoltaic arrays.

Modular block retaining wall system
20180100283 · 2018-04-12 ·

A system for building a wall includes a plurality of blocks and a plurality of connectors for aligning the blocks in successive courses. Each block has opposing first and second surfaces bounded by opposing front and rear faces and opposing end faces, the first and second surfaces being profiled with respective first and second rectilinear channels extending parallel to the front and rear faces. Each connector has first and second portions profiled for reception in respective first and second channels, the first portion being profiled to slide but not rotate in the first channel, the second portion being profiled to slide and rotate in the second channel. The second portion is offset from the first portion so that two different orientations of two blocks placed against each other are possible. The blocks preferably have a trapezoidal shape cut with only straight cuts to facilitate using natural stone.
