Foreign object debris barrier for runways
A collapsible runway side barrier for preventing foreign object debris (FOD) from entering a runway and taxiway. The barrier may have an aerodynamic profile, one side of the barrier profile may be convex and the other side of the barrier profile may be concave. The side barrier may further have ground attachment elements and may be constructed to collapse if the landing wheels of an aircraft impact the barrier.
Pavement Marker
A pavement marker is disclosed that includes a base member, two opposite resilient members and an upright member, wherein the upright member has an ends that extend laterally from a central section and are received into the opposite resilient members and wherein the base member is substantially planar with side rails, extends under the upright member and is adapted to receive and retain the resilient members. The resilient members hold the upright member in an upright position and allow for rotation of said upright member in response to a force applied to the upright member wherein the central section of the upright member includes a reflective surface.
SIGN ASSEMBLY
A sign assembly (2) for use on a road (8) has a support (6) arranged to be secured to the road (8) and a sign (6) configured to be detachably coupled to the support (6). The sign (6) has a non-planar portion is received in a slot (26) formed in the support (6). The assembly (2) is arranged so that the sign (4) returns to a standing position after impact while the support remains secured to the road and the sign (4) remains coupled to the support (6).
Safety fence support device with flexibility
A safety fence support device with flexibility may be provided. More particularly, a safety fence support device with flexibility may be provided which is simply installed on a safety fence used in various sports facilities, e.g., a baseball field, an ice hockey rink, a ski slope, etc., causes the safety fence to be tilted backward even when players playing a game or people enjoying the sports in the sports facilities collide with the safety fence at various angles, thereby preventing injury by mitigating impact applied to a human body through the safety fence, and is used in various sports facilities regardless of the kind of the safety fence by controlling the degree of flexibility for mitigating the impact in accordance with the impact strength.

Impact Absorbing Non-Slip Curb Cover
An impact absorbing non-slip curb cover consists of a longitudinal structural body, an impact absorbent section, and a cover adhesive. The longitudinal structural body is positioned over a curb via the cover adhesive. The impact absorbent section is connected along an external surface of the longitudinal structural body. When no external force is applied, the impact absorbent section is in an extended configuration. When an external force is applied, the impact absorbent section obtains the collapsed configuration. As a result, the external force is not transferred onto the curb. Moreover, a motor vehicle or other source that applied the external force is also not damaged. For safety purposes, a grit layer and a reflective coating can be integrated into the external surface. A lightweight non-rigid material is used to manufacture the longitudinal structural body and the impact absorbent section.

CURBSTONE AND STOP
A curbstone in particular for a stop has a base body of a dimensionally stable material, on the upper side of which an attached part of an at least partly elastic material is fixed at least in sections. The attached part has a compressible section on at least one side; wherein the attached part, adjacent to the side with the compressible section, has at least one hollow chamber, the shape of which can be changed when the section is pressed together. As a result, the risk of damage to the bodywork is reduced by the attached part.
