SOUND WALL WITH ULTRA-LIGHTWEIGHT FOAMED GLASS AGGREGATES
Systems and methods are disclosed for a highway sound wall system comprising a sound wall panel assembly filled with loose foam glass aggregates. The highway sound wall may further comprise a pair of spaced apart vertical members. The vertical members may be H-beams having a flange portion and a body portion. The highway sound wall may further comprise a pair of spaced apart mesh members extending between and retained within the vertical members, thereby forming the sound wall panel assembly. Each of the vertical members may have at least one stop block attached to the flange portion and at least one stop block attached to the body portion. At least one vertical edge of the mesh members may have an attached bar which engages both stop blocks. The sound wall may be temporary or permanent.
Wire barrier
A barrier includes at least one support panel having a first face and a second face and a first bend intermediate the first face and the second face is provided. The support panel is deployable from a folded and packed condition to a freestanding condition, and is re-foldable to a packed condition. In the freestanding condition at least one expandable wire coil is operatively attached to the support panel to form the barrier. The expandable wire coil may be made of barbed wire, razor wire, or concertina wire. The support panel includes a diagonal brace and may include a generally horizontal brace. Retention cable may be strung through the wire coil to retain the wire coil to the support panel. The barrier may be provided as a deployment kit including the barrier materials in a packed condition. A method of deploying the barrier is provided.
FASTENER ASSEMBLY, MESH PANEL AND BARRIER SYSTEM
A fastener assembly for mounting a panel to a framework includes an elongate flexible tie having a proximal end and an opposing distal end and a clamping block. The clamping block has a tie-receiving channel extending between an inner and an opposing outer side, and a gripper in or adjacent the tie-receiving channel for gripping the tie. The proximal end is fixable to the clamping block and, in use, the inner side of the clamping block abuts the panel and the gripper grips the tie such that tension in the tie presses the inner side of the clamping block against the panel. A mesh panel made of polymeric material and having a honeycomb shaped mesh, together with the fastener assembly, forms a barrier system for erecting a drop-protection barrier on a safety railing, scaffolding, or like framework.
Barrier
A barrier which includes a first mesh panel with spaced horizontally extending reinforcing formations, and a second mesh panel positioned between two of the reinforcing formations.
MODULAR FENCE SYSTEM
A modular fence system includes a plurality of fence panels, each having top, bottom, left side, and right side edges. The left side edge may define a first profile, and he right side edge may define a second profile, the second profile being complementary to the first profile, whereby the left side edge of one panel may be disposed in side-by-side relationship to the right side edge of a second panel. The top, bottom, left side, and right side edges may define a periphery, with a plurality of barrier members residing within the periphery. Each panel may also include a strengthening feature integral with a plurality of the barrier members. A first hinge may carried on the left side edge, and a second hinge carried on the right side edge and configured to align with the first hinge.
RAZOR WIRE BARRIER FOR ACCESS POINT SECURITY
A razor wire barrier is disclosed. In some embodiments, the razor wire barrier includes a frame including a floor and a plurality of walls defining an interior area. The razor wire barrier may further include a first section of razor wire within the interior area, and a component receptacle extending along the floor, adjacent the first section of razor wire. The component receptacle is operable to receive a component of a machine for moving the frame. In some embodiments, the component receptacle is a hollow member operable to receive a forklift prong. In some embodiments, the razor wire barrier may further include a second section of razor extending along the plurality of walls. In some embodiments, the first section of razor wire includes one or more coils of concertina razor wire, and the second section of razor wire includes one or more panels of razor wire.
Fastener assembly, mesh panel and barrier system
A fastener assembly for mounting a panel to a framework includes an elongate flexible tie having a proximal end and an opposing distal end and a clamping block. The clamping block has a tie-receiving channel extending between an inner and an opposing outer side, and a gripper in or adjacent the tie-receiving channel for gripping the tie. The proximal end is fixable to the clamping block and, in use, the inner side of the clamping block abuts the panel and the gripper grips the tie such that tension in the tie presses the inner side of the clamping block against the panel. A mesh panel made of polymeric material and having a honeycomb shaped mesh, together with the fastener assembly, forms a barrier system for erecting a drop-protection barrier on a safety railing, scaffolding, or like framework.
Anchoring assembly and associated fencing
An anchoring assembly for enclosures that includes at least one laminar screen, which has at least one rigid wire, and at least one post, for supporting the screen with vertical orientation. The assembly has at least one pin provided with a head and with a shank, the shank being configured to be inserted into a hole in the post. The assembly further includes at least one clamp that has a recess configured to receive the shank with interference. The rigid wire can be clamped in the clamp. The assembly also includes at least one at least partially threaded stem, which can be screwed into a female thread which is provided inside the pin, with consequent mutual tightening of the clamp.
EARTHING TECHNIQUE
An earth connector for a fence panel includes a member with a sharp edge which penetrates protective material on rods of the panel to come into electrical contact with at least two of the rods.
Fence Assembly and Method of Installing the Same
The present invention relates to a fence assembly and method of installing a fence assembly on a support surface having underground obstacles. The method for installing a fence assembly includes providing at least three posts, brackets each having a first plate and a second plate that is connected perpendicularly to the first plate, at least one rail, and a fence fabric. The posts are inserted in a support surface, such that the at least three posts are spaced from one another at varying distances. The first plates of the brackets are secured to a front surface of each post, and the rail is secured to the second plate of the brackets in an orientation perpendicular to the posts. The fence fabric is secured to the rail so such that the fence assembly components are not accessible from the exterior of the fence assembly.
