Abstract: A method of providing covers over at least a portion of a roof of a storm damaged built structure that includes the steps of: applying a sheet of heat shrinkable film over the portion of the roof, the sheet having a leading edge and a trailing edge and being a film of low density polyethylene including shrinking resins; wrapping portions of the leading edge around a first batten and attaching the first batten to the underside of a first eave or to the facia of the built structure; wrapping portions of the trailing edge around a second batten and attaching the second batten to the underside of a second eave or to the facia of the built structure at a location different than the first batten; and heating the sheet of heat shrinkable film to bring the film into conformity with the portion of the roof, wherein the heating step shrinks the sheet of film tight against the built structure to cover over the portion of the roof.

Abstract: A vacuum therapy device for treatment of a defect internal of a human or animal body, the device comprising: a porous medium for treatment of the defect; a catheter having a proximal end and a distal end, wherein the catheter is configured to be inserted into the body to enable deployment of the porous medium through an opening at the distal end for treatment of the defect; and a suction element within the catheter, the suction element comprising a suction tube connected to the porous medium to provide suction thereat; wherein the porous medium is movable between: (i) a proximal position in which a majority of the porous medium is inside the catheter for insertion of the catheter and the porous medium into the body, and (ii) a distal position in which a portion of the porous medium is located outside the catheter for treatment of the defect; wherein a cross-section of the shape of the porous medium includes one or more spokes extending radially outward, wherein two adjacent spokes are separated by a separatio

Abstract: A covering of a damaged or uncompleted building; the covering including a film of heat shrinkable material stretched over damaged or uncompleted portions of the building; the film formed as a sheet comprising an assembly of lengths of the heat shrinkable material applied to surfaces of the building.

Abstract: A roof cover of a building under construction includes a heat shrinkable film stretched over the roof framing of said building under construction. The film brought into conformity with said roof framing through application of heat. The film may be formed by a number of adjoining sheets or strips of material.
