  • Patent number: 4080129
    Abstract: For casting large concrete articles, a wheel-mounted main frame supports a mould assembly which can be rotated about a horizontal axis, and also raised and lowered. This assembly has two main mould sections oppositely arranged so that when one faces upwards the other faces downwards. A removable mould section fitted to each main mould section forms a complete mould capable, when uppermost, of receiving concrete to be cast. The mould assembly may then be inverted and lowered to a support, and the removable mould section disconnected to serve as a pallet for the cast article. The mould assembly may be raised, concrete may be cast in the other mould, which is uppermost, and the main frame may be moved clear of the deposited cast article.

  • Patent number: 3962835
    Abstract: A pre-fabricated unit, usable singly or with others in constructing a building, has a roof section and a floor section interconnected by central end columns, the roof and floor sections both being rectangular, each being formed with transverse beams across its ends and longitudinal corrugations between the beams. When two units are superimposed, the floor section beams of the upper one bear on the roof section beams of the lower, the corrugations of the two sections interfitting with some clearance and forming longitudinal roof and floor ducts for service lines and conduits which communicate with transverse ducts formed between the beams and corrugations of the roof section.
