  • Patent number: 10871000
    Abstract: A form system for a swimming pool may include outer form panels to be coupled in side-by-side relation corresponding to a desired swimming pool shape. Each outer form panel may include an outer wall panel having opposing first and second ends to be coupled to respective first and second opposing ends of adjacent outer wall panels and a magnet adjacent one of the first and second ends of the outer wall panel. Inner form panels may be coupled in side-by-side relation, and support members couple the outer form panels in spaced relation from the inner form panels to define a wall space therebetween. The form system may also include a tension member to be magnetically coupled to the at least one magnet between adjacent ones of the outer form panels so that the tension member extends across the wall space and between adjacent inner form panels.

  • Patent number: 10640947
    Abstract: A form system for an in-ground swimming pool may include inner and outer form panels to be coupled in side-by-side relation. Support members may be for coupling the outer form panels in spaced relation from the inner form panels to define a wall space therebetween. Each of the support members may include a base member to be carried by respective inner and outer form panels over the wall space, an arm extending from the base member for coupling to the respective outer form panel, and a wall support member for coupling to the respective inner form panel. The wall support member may include a wall support lip extending from a wall support body for engaging the respective inner form panel so that the respective inner form panel is suspended from the wall support lip.

  • Patent number: 10428542
    Abstract: A method of constructing an in-ground swimming pool may include positioning outer form panels in side-by-side relation defining an outer form wall within an excavated area of ground corresponding to a desired in-ground swimming pool shape. Each outer form panel may have opposing inner and outer sides and a support member bracket extending from the outer side. The method may also include positioning inner form panels in side-by-side relation and in spaced relation from the inner side of the outer form panels to define an inner form wall. The inner and outer form walls may define a wall space therebetween, and each inner form panel may have opposing inner and outer sides. The method may also include coupling support members over the wall space and to the outer side of the inner form panels and to respective ones of the support member brackets.

  • Patent number: 9696032
    Abstract: A system and process for disposal of dry fly ash that effectively confines and damps fugitive dust during the collection, sorting, transporting, storage and treatment of fly ash at a landfill. The system and process for disposal of dry fly ash utilizing an enlarged, oversized hopper positioned at the top of a hill and an elongate channel that runs between the enlarged hopper and the landfill. A bulk transport truck hauling a belly dump trailer dumps dry fly ash through an elevated platform having a centrally aligned orifice into the oversized hopper having a slurry rack and a large hopper grate. The ramps and raised platform of the enlarged hopper allow the belly dump trailer compartments to be closer to the orifice and the hopper grate in order to minimize fugitive ash during the disposal process.

  • Patent number: 8641322
    Abstract: A system and process for disposal of dry fly ash that effectively confines and damps fugitive dust during the collection, sorting, transporting, storage and treatment of fly ash at a landfill. The system and process for disposal of dry fly ash utilizing an enlarged, oversized hopper positioned at the top of a hill and an elongate channel that runs between the enlarged hopper and the landfill. A bulk transport truck hauling a belly dump trailer dumps dry fly ash through an elevated platform having a centrally aligned orifice into the oversized hopper having a slurry rack and a large hopper grate. The dry fly ash is mixed with water in the enlarged hopper at a ratio of approximately 1:1, after which it flows downstream into the elongate channel and ultimately to the landfill. When the transport truck is positioned above the enlarged hopper, the doors of the belly dump trailer open and contact a substantially upright skirt surrounding the periphery of the orifice.
