Abstract: A protective textile sleeve and method of construction thereof is provided. The sleeve has a flexible, tubular wall of braided yarns. At least some of the yarns are provided as a plurality of monofilaments and at least some of the yarns are provided as a plurality of multifilaments. The plurality of multifilaments are braided in a plurality of separate bundles. Each of the bundles includes at least two multifilaments. The monofilaments are embedded into the multifilaments during the braiding process to lock the multifilaments in an “as braided” location to prevent shifting of the multifilaments during application and during use, thereby enhancing the abrasion resistance of the sleeve wall.

Abstract: A wrappable textile sleeve for protecting an elongate member and method of construction thereof is provided. The sleeve includes a plurality of warp filaments and at least one weft filament woven with one another to form a woven wall. The woven wall has opposite sides extending lengthwise between opposite ends. The opposite sides are wrappable about a central longitudinal axis into overlapping relation with one another to bound the elongate member within a cavity of the sleeve. At least one warp and/or weft filament is provided as a bulky, fluffy multifilament, wherein the bulky, fluffy multifilament is woven to form at least one float extending over 2 or more weft and/or warp yarns, wherein the at least one float provides loops sufficient to readily fix themselves to hooks of a standard hook and loop fastener.

Abstract: The invention relates to a control module for controlling at least one radiant tube burner, the burner comprising a fuel supply valve, an oxidant supply valve and a combustion fume discharge conduit, wherein the control module comprises: a means for measuring the quality of combustion, installed in the combustion fume discharge conduit of said at least one burner, a unit for measuring the fuel flow rate, a unit for measuring the oxidant flow rate, and a means for driving said at least one burner, acting on the opening percentages of the oxidant and fuel supply valves of said at least one burner in order to adjust the ratio of the oxidant flow rate to the fuel flow rate on the basis of the information delivered by the means for determining combustion quality.

Abstract: A woven sleeve, sleeve assembly and methods of construction thereof are provided. The sleeve has a flexible, abrasion resistant, circumferentially closed and continuous elongate wall extending lengthwise along a central axis between opposite ends. The wall is woven with warp yarns extending generally parallel to the central axis and at least one heat-shrinkable weft yarn extending generally transversely to the warp yarns.

Abstract: A real-time trade resource management system is shown. In a construction site having one or more points of ingress/egress a tracking assembly at each point of ingress/egress is used to determine when workers are first and last observed on the site. Each worker on the site is assigned to a specific contract for the construction project. A server, computer readable medium, and method for managing trade resources is described.
