Abstract: In the present disclosure, a structural coupler is disclosed for coupling together structural members, such as trusses. The structural coupler is dimensioned such that it can be installed at an end and within an inner channel of the structural member. The structural member includes a gusset member, a face member and a reinforcing member. The face member is connected to the gusset member and the reinforcing member is connected to both the gusset member and the face member. To couple structural members together, the face member of the structural member installed at an end of a first structural member is mated with the face member of the structural member installed at an end of a second structural member. The structural couplers are then joined together using a coupling mechanism.

Abstract: A waterproof cover for a multiple bale stack of forage material arranged in a peaked pile of bales, the cover having opposite edges provided with hems having spaced notch-like openings therein along the edges of the hems which respectively receive a series of rods in longitudinally-spaced position in the hems, a series of U-shaped members connected at the ends thereof respectively to the rods with the rounded ends of the members projecting through the notch-like openings, a series of parallel tie strands disposable beneath the stack of bales in alignment with the U-shaped members on the rods in the hems, and the opposite ends of the tie strands being connectable respectively to the U-shaped members to secure the cover to the top and sides of the stack of bales.
