Abstract: A protective barrier includes an angle bracket having a length extending from a first end to a second end of the protective barrier. The angle bracket includes a first elongate leg member having a first edge extending along the length of the angle bracket, the first elongate member having a first side configured to be mounted to a surface, a second elongate leg member extending along the length of the angle bracket and substantially perpendicular from the first elongate leg member, and an impact absorber extending from the first end to the second end of the protective barrier, the impact absorber being compressible and configured to be disposed on the angle bracket.

Abstract: A monitoring system includes a storage device and a monitoring module. The monitoring module is configured to receive sensor data from a plurality of sensors installed on elements disposed in a facility, the sensor data characterizing an effect of physical impacts on the elements, store the sensor data in the storage device, and process the stored sensor data to generate information characterizing effects of the one or more physical impacts on the elements over time.

Abstract: A post assembly has a longitudinal axis extending from a proximal end to a distal end and includes a hollow outer shell, an anchoring sub-assembly disposed at the proximal end for securing the post assembly to a surface, a core assembly disposed within the hollow outer shell. The core assembly includes a core tube, a rigid rod having a lower end mechanically coupled to the anchoring sub-assembly and extending along the longitudinal axis to an upper end, and an elastic member disposed around the upper end of the rigid rod, the elastic member configured to transfer forces incident on the hollow outer shell through the elastic member to the anchoring sub-assembly via the rigid rod.

Abstract: A protective barrier and a door frame protection system include a bar having an upper section having an outer dimension; a lower section having an inner dimension greater than the outer dimension of the upper section, the lower section configured to receive the upper section; and a shock absorber configured to be positioned within the lower section and around the upper section, the shock absorber having an outer dimension less than the inner dimension of the lower section and an inner dimension greater than the outer dimension of the upper section.

Abstract: A protective barrier includes a first end piece including a first opening and a first anchoring member for securing the first end piece to a surface, a second end piece including a second opening and a second anchoring member for securing the second end piece to the surface, a rail extending between the first end piece and the second end piece, the rail having a first end disposed in the first opening of the first end piece and a second end disposed in the second opening of the second end piece, and a cable system including a first fastener coupled to the first anchoring member, a second fastener coupled to the second anchoring member, and a cable having a first end attached to the first fastener and a second attached to the second fastener, the cable extending from the first fastener, through the first opening, through the rail, through the second opening, and to the second fastener.

Abstract: A shelving assembly includes a frame having a number of sides, the frame configured to be affixed to a surface and a deck disposed on top of the frame. A first side is configured to absorb a force of impact of an object striking the first side of the frame while preventing deformation of the frame.

Abstract: A barrier system may include an impact receiving post having a sidewall defining an inner cavity. The impact receiving post may be bendable and may have a proximal end, a distal end, and a post length as measured from the proximal end to the distal end. An insert may be positionable within the inner cavity. The insert may have an insert proximal end, an insert distal end, and an insert length as measured from the insert proximal end to the insert distal end, the insert length being less than the post length. A foundation cage may be coupled to the proximal end of the impact receiving post. The foundation cage may include a plurality of members that form a three-dimensional lattice structure. The foundation cage may be configured for installation beneath a ground surface.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a bollard system including an impact receiving post and a foundation cage. The impact receiving post includes an outer surface, a proximal end, and a distal end. The foundation cage defines a three-dimensional lattice structure. The foundation cage is coupled to the proximal end of the impact receiving post and is configured for installation in concrete beneath a ground surface. The foundation cage defines a recess to receive a proximal portion of the impact receiving post. The foundation cage includes a horizontal stop member at least partially extending across the recess and supporting the impact receiving post and preventing the impact receiving post from extending further into the foundation cage before the concrete sets.
