Abstract: A concrete container including a concrete footing including a shear key; a concrete wall inserted in the shear key; a plurality of footing reinforcing members inserted in the concrete footing on a support side of the shear key and extending above the concrete footing; a plurality of wall reinforcing members inserted in the concrete wall on a support side of the concrete wall and extending diagonally towards the concrete footing; a poured concrete moment connection substantially covering the plurality of footing reinforcing members extending from the pre-cast concrete footing and the plurality of wall reinforcing members extending from the wall.
Abstract: A device and method for creating waves of water are provided. A movable wave-generating member is cyclically reciprocated in a body of water to create the waves. A chamber and baffle, positioned adjacent the wave-generating member, act to dissipate wave energy from the return stroke of the wave-generating member due to the entrapment and compression of air within the chamber.
