Anti-seismic performance reinforcement and crack repair structure of masonry structure and construction method of same
An anti-seismic performance reinforcement structure of a masonry structure and a construction method of the same are proposed, where a deformed bar is constructed to be tied to the entire circumference of the masonry structure at every predetermined height thereof such that the masonry structure is connected to a wall, thereby simplifying a construction process, and inducing the masonry structure and the wall to be moved integrally to each other during an earthquake so as to prevent the masonry wall from collapsing. The method of performing anti-seismic performance reinforcement and crack repair of the masonry structure includes: removing a predetermined depth of a horizontal joint; mounting the cross joint by forcibly press-fitting the cross joint having the press-in holder and the horizontal holder to a perforated position; fixing a deformed bar fixture to the wall; and tying the entire circumference of the masonry structure with the deformed bar.
Device and method for reinforcing round section wood beam by combination of prestressed FRP sheet and high strength steel wire rope
The present disclosure relates to a device and a method for reinforcing a round section wood beam by the combination of a prestressed Fiber Reinforce Plastic (FRP) sheet and a high strength steel wire rope. The device includes an FRP sheet adhered to a bottom surface of a log beam in the length direction. A middle supporting piece is mounted in the middle of the log beam. An end part reinforcing anchoring piece is mounted at each of two ends of the log beam. FRP hoops are adhered to the log beam and are located between the middle supporting piece and each of the end part reinforcing anchoring pieces at intervals in the length direction. High strength steel wire ropes with both ends connected to the corresponding end part reinforcing anchoring pieces are respectively arranged on the two sides of the middle supporting piece.

CONTINUOUS COMPOSITE STRUCTURAL REINFORCING DEVICE & SYSTEM
A pre-fabricated composite reinforcement device for installation on a structure, comprising a metal reinforcement layer; a fiber reinforced polymer layer; an adhesive layer configured between the metal and fiber reinforced polymer layer; and a plurality of power-actuated fasteners configured for securing the metal reinforcement, fiber reinforced polymer, and adhesive layer to the structure; and wherein a first side of the metal reinforcement layer is for positioning upon the structure for installation of the fasteners with the first side facing away from the structure, and a second side is configured with the adhesive and fiber reinforced layer across a surface area of the second side of the metal reinforcement layer.
Sleeve support for a condenser
A beam-receiving support kit bears an outdoor condenser component of a split air conditioning system through a rigid beam. The support kit generally includes a support sleeve and a brace configured to resist rotation of the beam after the kit is incorporated into a block wall or foundation. The sleeve generally includes a straight passageway for the beam between aligned openings in the wall or foundation. The brace engages the sleeve and is generally configured to extend across a portion of at least one or two webs of a standard nominal 16″ long concrete block, and may be embedded or installed on a face of the wall or foundation. The kit may be part of a masonry unit. The kit may also comprise one or more sleeves and a liner or insulator for protecting the sleeve(s).

LASER WELDING METHOD FOR REPAIR, AND LASER WELDING REPAIR DEVICE
A laser welding repair device includes a laser oscillator, a laser head that condenses laser light from the laser oscillator to irradiate a repair portion, a temperature sensor that detects a temperature distribution of a steel material irradiated with the laser light, and a control unit. The control unit sets a spot diameter of the laser light to be less than 3 mm, moves the laser head and enlarges a heat input area to check for a crack in the heat input area, the heat input area being formed by irradiating the steel material with the laser light, and controls the laser head to irradiate a region where a temperature detected by the temperature sensor is equal to or less than a mechanical melting temperature of the steel material. Where a welding is performed in a flat position, the crack can be easily and reliably erased without causing burn through.
