Abstract: A bracket assembly for securing a tower section to a deck includes a lower support bracket, columns, and a pair of upper upper support brackets, which all have vertical plates with circular apertures. Each circular aperture spans at least two tower flange bolt holes. Attachment yokes are inserted into the circular apertures, and each have at least two bolt apertures, which match the bolt holes size and spacing. The yokes are rotated to align the holes for insertion of bolts. Specific yokes are provided to fit various tower sizes. The brackets can be stacked, and the yoke arrangement substantially reduces bolt torque requirements.

Abstract: A transit bracket support system for tubulars such as tower sections of a wind turbine includes a plurality of arcuately spaced slots in a support bracket are adapted to closely receive a plurality of plug plates which include at least one aperture. The slots are formed to correspond to a flange provided on the tubulars and the aperture(s) in the plug plates are formed so as to correspond to holes in the flange. Bolts and nuts are provided to secure the support bracket to the tubular. A plurality of brackets may be employed to provide for stacking of the tubulars during transit.

Abstract: A jig or bench for holding a ski in any one of several stationary positions for servicing and repair comprising a rigid frame without any moving parts or clamps, which provides three stable sites for stationarily supporting a ski in any one of a plurality of positions suitable for different servicing and maintenance operations.
