The invention provides a composite and modular intermediate deck, designed to divide a micro home into an upper living volume and a lower living volume below the intermediate deck. The intermediate deck is characterized by having a U-shaped slot comprising from 10% to 60% of the total surface of the platform, which allows maximizing usage of vertical space by making the U-shaped slot, which serves as a corridor in the upper living volume, coincide with non-crossable spaces in the lower living volume. The height of crossable areas of the upper living volume is given by the distance from the floor to the flat surface of the intermediate deck. A micro home unit characterized by featuring the abovementioned deck is also provided.

An access floor system including an access floor section that includes a wireless charging unit which is configured for wirelessly charging at least one robot capable of moving in a building; and a communication unit which communicates with a charging control system for controlling the robot and/or charging of the robot. The wireless charging unit of the access floor section is connected to a power line under the floor surface, and the communication unit of the access floor is connected to a communication line under the floor surface.

The subject invention is related to a waffle slab with a plug. The waffle slab comprises a plurality of through holes from the top surface to the bottom surface thereof along its thickness direction, and at least one of the through holes has at least one stop-profile. The plug has at least one profile complementary to the at least one stop-profile of the through holes, so that when the plug is inserted into the at least one through hole, the plug sits on the at least one stop-profile and a top surface of the plug is flush with the top surface of the waffle slab.

Disclosed is the redirection of air flow in a sub-plenum using a multi-directional plume that is attached to the bottom surface of an air-grate floor panel. The air-grate floor panel 102 has openings which allow redirected air to flow in an upward direction to cool computer equipment, including servers. The multi-directional plume has a series of vanes that are disposed in various different directions to deflect a flow of air conditioning air through a sub-plenum in a vertical direction to flow through openings in the air-grate floor panel. Since the multi-directional plume is capable of redirecting air from various different directions in the sub-plenum, the air-grate floor panels do not have to be repositioned to capture air flow from any particular direction.

A free access floor structure to install a manufacturing apparatus such as a semiconductor manufacturing apparatus, in a short time, and a manufacturing apparatus and a carrier apparatus adapted for the floor structure. An embodiment of the manufacturing apparatus includes an apparatus-side connector which is provided, facing downward, to a bottom plate of a manufacturing apparatus. A floor structure of an embodiment includes a floor plate to be worked into a floor surface. The floor structure includes a floor-side connector which is provided, facing upward, to the floor plate so as to be connected with the apparatus-side connector according to a lowering operation of the manufacturing apparatus. An installation step (mounting step, piping/wiring step) of the manufacturing apparatus may thereby be performed in one step. As a result, the labor and the time required to install the manufacturing apparatus may be saved.

Example implementations of a synthetic turf system comprise a turf tray and a turf element. The turf tray is rigid and planar, and has a lattice structure extending within the lateral perimeter. The turf element includes a backing portion and a blade portion. The blade portion is defined by a plurality of blades of artificial grass affixed to the backing portion, the backing portion is placed secured engagement with the upper side by way of, for example, adhesive or screws. The turf trays may include perimeter and auxiliary adhesive tracks, and an array of screw retention bosses. The system may include a sprinkler assembly mountable in the turf trays for washing down the turf elements. The sprinkler assembly may include mounting flanges configurable to accommodate mounting of various sprinklers. The system may include height-adjustable pedestals or joists to support the turf trays at a distance above the local horizonal surface.

A modular datacenter facility and a method thereof is provided in accordance with some embodiments. The module datacenter facility can be constructed with an initial set of building modules of different types of functionality. A first building module can be a data-floor building module. A first set of sidewall-connected heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) units can connect to a sidewall of the modular datacenter facility and use electrical power provided by a first electrical power distribution building module to supply conditioned air into an air-supply plenum of the sidewall to cool computing systems housed in the data-floor building module. The first set of the sidewall-connected HVAC units allow for fewer penetrations in a roof of the data-floor building module, thereby minimizing an amount of leaks potentially occurring in the roof of the ceiling, and thereby minimizing risk of any damage to the computing systems.

A mat assembly includes a center section and four ramps that create a unitary mat assembly for any desired use. The center section includes a top plate that provides the desired kind of mat surface for use and a sponge layer underlying the top plate to provide the center section with a cushioned feel during use. Each ramp includes a flange that extends from an end portion of the ramp, the flange configured to be joined between the top plate and sponge insert. The ramps can be joined to each other using a connector or a mitered connection.

A flooring element is used in a raised floor having removable flooring panels and a supporting structure and having a load bearing surface. The flooring element includes a roll of flexible sheet material mounted on the flooring element. The flooring element may include a flooring stringer or an insert. After removal of an overlying flooring panel to reveal an opening to a sub-floor void, the roll of flexible sheet material may be extended from the roll and affixed to an attachment means at an opposite side of the opening so as to substantially cover the opening and provide a warning of a removed panel.

The subject invention is related to a waffle slab with a plug. The waffle slab comprises a plurality of through holes from the top surface to the bottom surface thereof along its thickness direction, and at least one of the through holes has at least one stop-profile. The plug has at least one profile complementary to the at least one stop-profile of the through holes, so that when the plug is inserted into the at least one through hole, the plug sits on the at least one stop-profile and a top surface of the plug is flush with the top surface of the waffle slab.
