Abstract: Cathodic protection of steel in a concrete column in sea water is simplified by providing a pre-assembled unit including a jacket to surround the column carrying a bulk sacrificial anode outside the jacket and optionally an inner sacrificial anode of a zinc mesh or strips on an inside surface. The jacket can also include a pre-assembled junction box and couplings to connect to the steel. The jacket is attached to the surface of the column at the water line so that the bulk anode is located below the surface of the water and supported relative to the concrete surface solely by the connection of the bulk anode to the covering layer. The bulk anode can be formed of aluminum so as to be less toxic in sea water.

Abstract: Cathodic protection of steel in a concrete column in sea water is simplified by providing a pre-assembled unit including a jacket to surround the column carrying a bulk sacrificial anode outside the jacket and optionally an inner sacrificial anode with a cast grout inside the jacket. The jacket can also include a pre-assembled junction box and couplings to connect to the steel. The jacket is attached to the surface of the column at the water line so that the bulk anode is located below the surface of the water. The bulk anode can be formed of aluminum so as to be less toxic in sea water. An activator is applied inside the jacket either as a wicking layer or as a chemical activating material. The jacket can act only as a form work which is then removed after casting of the grout.

Abstract: The data transformation method operates discrete input data sources DF-in each having df-in data fields carrying to-be-converted data (tbc-data). Initial steps identify tbc-data field and characteristics; output discrete output (df-out) with predefined df-out data fields for converted data (conv-data); and maps or look-up tables for relationships between df-in data fields and df-out data fields. Process activates: SFTP App in the presence df-in and transfers df-in to unstructured data blob; and App copying the df-in from blob to file share archive; first orchestrating sequence App to validate df-in data based upon conversion rules. If INVALID, App generates error entry. If VALID, App converts tbc-data into conv-data with conversion rules and mapping orchestrating App populates df-out data fields with conv-data resulting converted df-out in the blob. A second orchestrating App transfers converted df-out to destination store.
