Abstract: A fire protection system for fire protection for liquid hazardous material. The system having at least one storage arrangement for storage of the liquid hazardous material in at least one storage vessel, at least one collecting area, and a first plurality of extinguishing fluid outlets, wherein the at least one storage arrangement is configured to direct the liquid hazardous material into the at least one collecting area in the event of escape of the liquid hazardous material from the at least one storage vessel, and wherein the at least one storage arrangement, the at least one collecting area and the first plurality of extinguishing fluid outlets are arranged relative to one another such that a firefighting action can be executed by a extinguishing fluid for use with a non-hazardous material in case of a fire event of the liquid hazardous material.

Abstract: Fire protection systems for a rooftop solar panel installation with solar panels. The fire protection system has a group of water spray nozzles with a metric K-factor of 20 or less to discharge firefighting fluid to a coverage area of the rooftop solar panel installation, a fluid pipe system connecting the group of water spray nozzles to a fluid supply for providing firefighting fluid, a fire hazard detection system with at least one fire hazard detector configured to monitor the coverage area, and at least one detection control unit to generate an alarm signal upon detection of a fire hazard within the coverage area, a valve unit configured to control passage of the firefighting fluid from the fluid supply, wherein the coverage area is at least 500 m2, and the group of water spray nozzles is configured to discharge the firefighting fluid received from the fluid supply to the coverage area with a normalized fluid application rate of 15 mm/m2/min or less.

Abstract: Systems and methods for implementing an engineering web portal are disclosed. The system maintains a database of data and drawings for parts sold by a vendor. The drawings can be downloaded to a client and inserted into a CAD system, whereupon the vendor charged a fee for each drawing downloaded. The database of parts can be searched for parts meeting a user's requirements. The parts resulting from the search can be submitted to a search engine that searches for auctions that offer the part for bidding.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, and article of manufacture provide for displaying dimensioning for a data object. A data object to be dimensioned is displayed. Dimensioning for the data object is created in accordance with a dimensioning rule, wherein the dimensioning rule is pre-defined to determine how points of the data object are to be dimensioned. Once created, the dimensioning is displayed.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a landscape divider including at least one dividing element, which is fabricated of a sheet-like material and has at least one bent edge forming a U-shaped cross-section.

Abstract: This document describes a method for creating a dimensioning object for at least one data object, wherein both the dimensioning object and the data object are displayable on a display device as graphical objects, wherein the method comprises the following steps:

Abstract: A method for creating a dimensioning object for at least one data object, wherein both the dimensioning object and the data object are displayable on a display device as graphical objects. Dimensioning rules (that have been pre-defined for the data object) are applied to determine a dimensioning object for the data object. The dimensioning object for the data object to be dimensioned is displayed on the display device wherein the dimensioning object is determined by the dimensioning rules. The dimensioning object is stored with the data object.
