Abstract: A system and method (referred to as a systems) builds alert packages that deliver messages to end-users analyzes inbound message data and identifies inbound event data objects. The systems store the inbound event data objects that are removed based on assigned priority values from a first multielement data structure. The systems process the inbound event data objects based on the assigned priority values through a cluster of event analyzer engines connected in parallel and identify the inbound event data objects associated with pre-designated notification alerts through a cluster of event analyzer engines connected in parallel. The systems store the inbound event data objects associated with the pre-designated notification alerts within a another instance of the multielement data structure. The system creates alert packages through a cluster of alert builder engines and enables and disable the processors that make up the event analyzer and alert builder engines.

Abstract: Non-limiting embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method comprising: obtaining asphalt shingle waste (ASW) and performing grinding, screening, and separating steps on the ASW. In some embodiments, granules are removed from the ASW. In some embodiments, the method transforms ASW into ASW powder. In some embodiments, the ASW powder is formed into a plurality of briquettes. In some embodiments, at least one of: the ASW powder, the plurality of briquettes, or any combination thereof is fed into a mixing process that results in an ASW powder filled coating.

Abstract: In some embodiments, asphalt shingle waste (ASW) is obtained. In some embodiments, sufficient grinding steps and screening steps can be performed on the ASW to result in ASW powder. In some embodiments, the grinding steps and screening steps can exclude wet extraction steps. In some embodiments, ASW powder and an asphalt coating can be fed into at least one first mixer to form a mixture of the ASW powder and the asphalt coating. In some embodiments, the mixture of the ASW powder and the asphalt coating can be heated to form a heated mixture. In some embodiments, the heated mixture of the ASW powder and the asphalt coating can be conveyed to at least one second mixer. In some embodiments, at least one filler material can be combined with the heated mixture in the second mixer to obtain an ASW powder filled coating.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for oxidizing asphalt which comprises dispersing an oxygen containing gas throughout an asphalt flux in an oxidation zone while the asphalt flux is maintained at a temperature which is within the range of about 400° F. to 550° F., wherein the oxygen containing gas is introduced into the oxidation zone through a recycle loop. The recycle loop pumps asphalt flux from the oxidation zone and reintroduces the asphalt flux into the oxidation zone as oxygen enhanced asphalt flux. The recycle loop will typically include a pump which pulls the asphalt flux from the oxidation zone and which pumps the oxygen enhanced asphalt flux into the oxidation zone, and wherein the oxygen containing gas is injected into the recycle loop at a point before the asphalt flux enters into the pump.

Abstract: Disclosed painted roof coverings and related methods of manufacturing such painted roof coverings that use a color coating over the roof coverings instead of embedded pre-colored rock granules on the exposed surface of the roof coverings. By painting a roof covering with a color coating, any kind of top surfacing material, such as rock, plastic, mineral, man-made, or organic granules, may be used in place of the pre-colored rock granules. In some embodiments, it is desirable to size the top surfacing material to provide adequate UV protection and coverage to the weatherproofing asphalt material located below the top surfacing material. Further, the color of the shingles may be accurately matched between batches of shingles, between manufacturing facilities, and even between manufacturers. In addition, designs may be painted on the surface of the roof covering, which was previously impossible using pre-colored granules.

Abstract: A prefabricated system for outfitting a building space includes an architectural product (such as a full-height permanent building wall, a post-and-beam product with overhead frame, and a drywall-covered wall), a furniture product (such as a partial-height wall, a partition, and a desking system), and a plurality of accessories. The architectural product includes a structural member with horizontal and vertical accessory-mounting T-slots, and the furniture product includes structural trim pieces with identical vertical and horizontal accessory-mounting T-slots. The plurality of accessories are constructed to stably engage any of the accessory-mounting slots at a selected location along the slots. Some accessories can be attached to and extend between the two products, such as an accessory screen that extends between a post of a post-and-beam system and an end of a partition system.

Abstract: A stand for selectively supporting a work tool, such as a belt sander or the like, in either a vertical or horizontal position. The sanding tool is mounted to a support plate which is pivotally disposed for movement from a first position wherein the tool is supported in a vertical position to a second position wherein the tool is supported in a horizontal position. The stand further comprises a work support platform detachably connected to the support plate. The platform includes a pivotally connected work table that is adjustably located in a selected position within a predetermined range of positions.
