20100212803SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF REINFORCING A PIPE USING FIBER BUNDLES - A method of reinforcing a pipe or other structure using fiber reinforced polymer includes coating a raw carbon and/or other types of fiber roving with an epoxy or other resin, selectively directing the fiber roving through a positioning assembly of a reinforcing system, splaying the fiber roving that exits the positioning assembly onto a pipe wall or other surface, rotating the positioning assembly about an axis to place splayed fiber roving along a first circumferential section of the pipe wall or other surface and moving the positioning assembly along a longitudinal axis of the pipe or other structure to selectively place splayed fiber roving along a second circumferential section of the wall.08-26-2010
20100218708METHODS OF REINFORCING STRUCTURES AGAINST BLAST EVENTS - A method of reinforcing a structural member comprises positioning a shell around the structural member, placing a force dampening material around an exterior of the shell and securing the force dampening material around the shell. In certain arrangements, the method further includes at least partially filling a space defined between the structural member and the shell with a filler material. In some embodiments, the filler material comprises a concrete, a grout, an epoxy, combinations thereof and/or the like. In one embodiment, the shell comprises a fiber reinforced polymer (e.g., CFRP, GFRP, aramid fibers, epoxy, other resins, etc.). In alternative embodiments, the methods additionally includes placing one or more layers of fiber reinforced polymer around the shell prior to placing a force dampening material around an exterior of the shell. In some embodiments, the layer of fiber reinforced polymer comprises CFRP, GFRP or any other type of fiber reinforced polymer.09-02-2010
20120058338SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROTECTING CABLES AND OTHER STRUCTURAL MEMBERS - According to some embodiments, a cable protection system to at least partially shield a cable from heat, fire, an impact or other potentially harmful event or occurrence comprises a first encompassing member configured for placement around the cable or cable bundle, wherein a first void is defined between the first encompassing member and an outside of the cable or cable bundle. The system additionally includes a second encompassing member positioned around the first encompassing member, wherein a second void is defined between the first encompassing member and the second encompassing member. Further, the system comprises one or more fill materials positioned within the second void. In some embodiments, the fill material comprises vermiculite, ceramic and/or one or more other materials. The first void permits the cable protection system to be slidably moved relative to the cable or cable bundle.03-08-2012

20120103695DRILLING EQUIPMENT AND ATTACHMENT MEANS FOR THE SAME - This invention relates to a ground drilling or cutting tool comprising a cutting element removably attached thereto by attachment means, the tool further including retention means adapted to maintain attachment of the cutting element to the tool in the event that the attachment means fails. The retention means comprises a first surface on a side of the cutting element, a mounting recess in the cutting tool in which at least a portion of said cutting element locates, a second surface in a side of the mounting recess against which said first surface locates, channels in each of said first and second surfaces that align so as to cooperatively define a dowel hole when said first and second surfaces locate together, at least one dowel that locates in the dowel hole, and means for retaining the or each dowel within the dowel hole.05-03-2012
