Abstract: A method for cleaning hard surfaces at the micro level incorporates a two-phase process that initially cleans a surface and then seals the surface. The cleaning phase implements a cleaning solution that penetrates the surface of equipment and removes dirt and debris at the micro or nana level of the equipment. The sealing phase of the method seals the surface of equipment such that gaps at the micro level are filled in to prevent debris from accumulating at the micro-level of the surface of the equipment. The sealed surface provides improved aerodynamic flow of air across the hard surface.

Abstract: An extruded structural beam having a first member comprising rigid webbing interposed between a top flange and bottom flange. The top and bottom flanges of the first member each have a groove formed thereon for receiving a spline to secure screening material. Similarly, a second member having rigid webbing interposed between a top flange and bottom flange have a groove formed on the flanges for receiving a spline to secure screening material. The top and bottom flanges of both the first member and second member each further comprise opposing longitudinal channels for coupling the flanges so that a rectangular structural beam is formed. The outer surfaces of the flanges each further comprise a longitudinal slot so that a plurality of fasteners can be installed, through the longitudinal slots and flanges to secure the first member and second member together.

Abstract: A diagonal brace channel having a U-shaped first portion and a C-shaped second portion that is disposed to received a first diagonal brace member. The C-shaped second portion having a first top flange and a first bottom flange that are configured such that friction forces retain the first diagonal brace member in the desired position. A pair of parallel grooves are formed on each outer surface of the U-shaped first portion so that a visual guide is provided for the locations to install permanent fasteners to secure the diagonal brace channel to a primary framing member. The diagonal brace channel further providing an inverse C-shaped third portion to retain a second diagonal brace member in the desired position until permanent fasteners are installed.
