Abstract: A stone niche assembly system and method is disclosed, which includes collapsed and adjustable modular stone tile components with stabilizing grooves to be assembled into a stone niche for installation in the wall of a shower enclosure, for example.

Abstract: The nestable and drainable shower niche insert system inserts vertically and is retained within a shower stall. The system includes a water-tight pan having outwardly sloped walls, to insert and retain within and against the shower stall, and a nest pan retained within the water-tight pan. The nest pan has at least one horizontal wall adjacent one of the outwardly sloped walls, to guide and drain liquid running off the horizontal wall into the shower stall.

Abstract: A dual platform bed system has an associated machine for transferring material sheets from one platform bed to another. There are associated methods for both transferring and processing sheets on either or both platforms. Placing the platform beds adjacent one another reduces both human worker requirement and human and machine down time.

Abstract: In one embodiment, the invention is a register assembly for inserting into floors, ceilings and walls, comprising a first open top box having a bottom surface, which defines a centrally disposed opening through which air flows from a first environment to a second environment. A support is disposed within the first open top box. A second open top box nests within the first open top box, and is supported by the support. A restraint is associated with the first and second box to restrain the second box within the first box. The first and second open top boxes are sized and dimensioned to be coplanar with each other when nested. A conduit is also defined between the first open top box bottom surface opening and the second open top box to flow air from the first environment to the second environment.

Abstract: A system including a collapsible, recyclable, cost-effective module for transporting, loading and unloading slabs or tiles. The module comprises two lateral U-shaped members with each U-shaped member defining a top portion, bottom portion, proximal arm and distal arm. The member bottom portions are attached to one another and corresponding releasable connectors close each U-shaped member. The module is attached to a stabilizing base which in turn is secured to a transport ship or vehicle. Multiple modules are interconnected for the purpose of stabilization.
