Abstract: An accessory mounting system comprises a vertically aligned bracket configured to mate with a top corner block and a bottom corner block disposed below the top corner block of a pre-configured shipping container. A shaft may mount to the vertically aligned bracket and may have a first section slidable into a second section. In some examples, an accessory may be coupled to the shaft. The accessory may be elevated above a top plane of the pre-configured shipping container when the first section is slid at least partially out of the second section and the accessory mounting system is in an extended position. The accessory may be disposed next to the pre-configured shipping container when the first section is slid at least partially into the second section and the accessory mounting system is in a retracted position.

Abstract: Expandable shelters housing displaceable cassettes configured to provide an allocated resource are disclosed. Techniques of complexing the expandable shelters housing displaceable cassettes are also disclosed. The displaceable cassettes may deploy from a stowed position in an interior of the expandable shelter to a use position removeably coupled in an expanded interior portion of a displaceable side of the expandable shelter. In the use position, the cassettes are configured to provide an allocated resource, and provide a hallway between other interconnected expandable shelters.

Abstract: In one example, a portable expandable shelter includes an enclosure with one or more movable portions such as a side or end, and further includes a foldable frame configured and arranged for operation in unison with movement of the movable portion of the enclosure. This example of the portable expandable shelter also includes a cover that encloses at least a portion of a space defined by the movable portion and the foldable frame.

Abstract: Containment berms and associated support systems and structures. In one example embodiment, a containment berm bracket includes a substantially rigid first member and a substantially rigid second member. The first member defines a first complementary structure. The second member that defines a second complementary structure and a sidewall clamp. The second complementary structure is configured to releasably engage with the first complementary structure in order that the members can be releasably attached to each other.

Abstract: A bladder support system for reducing the stresses placed upon a bladder unit. The bladder support system includes a bladder unit fillable with a fluid, a base member comprised of a sheet structure, wherein the base member is positioned adjacent to the bladder unit and a plurality of straps attached to the base member. The plurality of straps are comprised of an elongated structure and removably attach the base member to the bladder unit in such a manner in which the plurality of straps and the base member encompass the bladder unit.

Abstract: A portable containment berm system for efficiently and effectively containing hazardous material spills involving a vehicle. The portable containment berm system includes a liner having a floor, a pair of opposing sidewalls and a pair of opposing end portions. A pair of opposing foam collars are attached to the opposing end portions of the liner for creating a buoyancy within the end portions of the liner. A skirt is preferably attached to the outer portion of the liner with a plurality of first sleeves attached to side portions of the sidewall, a plurality of second sleeves attached to the skirt, and a plurality of support members removably attachable within the first sleeve and the second sleeve for supporting the sidewalls.

Abstract: A coil cap cover for a cylindrical coil of aluminum stock provides round portion 20 sized to fit either end of the cylindrical coil of aluminum and a substantially rectangular attached skirt portion 60 which covers an adjacent portion of the cylindrical sidewall of the coil. A welded region 70 connects a perimeter edge of the round fabric portion to an upper edge of the fabric skirt portion, creating a three-dimensional coil cap. An overlap weld 80 fastens the upper edges of the ends of the skirt portion together with a segment of the perimeter of the round fabric portion. A crimp weld 90 fastens a lower corner of each end of the skirt portion together. In a preferred version of the invention, an overhang region radially outward from the welded region provides a plurality of curved blades separated by curved notches. A portion of each blade may be folded over the edge of the coil, depending on the diameter of the coil.
