Abstract: In a first aspect there is disclosed a reinforcing spacer (10) for use in constructing a concrete slab. The spacer (10) includes a first reinforcing arm (12) having a first arm base (16), a first arm wall (18) and a first arm support surface (20) provided on the first arm wall (18). The spacer (10) further includes a second reinforcing arm (14), transverse to the first reinforcing arm (12). The second reinforcing arm (14) has a second arm base (22), a second arm wall (24), and a second arm support surface (26) provided on the second arm wall (24). The first arm support surface (20) includes a first arm recess (36), and a first arm inclined surface (46) which slopes towards the first arm recess (36). The second arm support surface (20) includes a second arm recess (56) and a second arm inclined surface (60) which slopes towards the second arm recess (56). In use the spacer is located on a top surface of a pod to support a reinforcing mesh.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and system for assessing a performance of a musical composition in relation to a model performance of the same composition. In particular, as even a model performance does not follow a score of a composition precisely, the present invention initially correlates the model performance to a score of the performed composition. This allows for an accurate assessment of the timing of the assessable performance, relative to the timing of the model performance. The invention is of particular use where the assessable performance is performed along with the model performance, but the two perforrnances are remote from each other.
