  • Publication number: 20090249714
    Abstract: A multi-story building is constructed by first erecting at least one modular stairwell tower on a concrete base pad. The tower includes a number of horizontally alternating precast concrete modular stairwell units arranged in a stack and corresponding to twice the number of floors in the building. Each stairwell unit includes a precast reinforced concrete tower section having opposite side walls and opposite end walls defining an open top and an open bottom and a height generally equal to one half the vertical distance between two adjacent floors. An inclined stairway and a horizontal landing platform are formed within each tower section and are rigidly connected to the walls. Anchor members are embedded in the base pad and in upper and lower portions of the walls of each tower section, and adjacent anchor members are connected by weld plates. Each stairwell unit has a handrail supported by the corresponding stairway.

  • Publication number: 20040074398
    Abstract: A steak or burger weight incorporates a built-in meat thermometer. The steak weight rests on a serving of meat while it cooks. A temperature probe protrudes beneath the steak weight metal plate so that it penetrates into the meat to sense the internal temperature of the meat. A visible indicator located on the steak weight handle indicates when the meat is done to order. The indicator can be a pointer-type gauge, or can include an LCD or one or more LEDs. The cook or chef knows at a glance when the meat is cooked to the customer's order so as to avoid serving the meat when it is over- or under-cooked.
