Abstract: This is a new type of pile foundation for support of structures. It uses a new method of forming concrete around the steel rebar prior to installing the rebar. Concrete is molded in an undulating fashion to improve load transfer to the adjacent hole backfill. The backfill is densified in place and grouted to maintain the dense configuration. The grouting is injected into an unlined hole. If temporary casing is used during drilling, it is removed prior to grouting. The basic premises are that grouting the hole backfill to the surrounding soil provides a better load transfer at that interface. And, beyond a few inches past the steel rebar, grouted dense sand and gravel are adequate for the load at that point. Timing of the grouting is more flexible than typical ready-mix concrete delivery systems. This method also allows for real time testing of the pile capacity.

Abstract: A computer workstation includes a worksurface horizontally moveable from a first worksurface position to a second worksurface position. At least a portion of the worksurface rotates about a horizontal axis as the worksurface is moved from the first worksurface position to the second worksurface position. A monitor support is moveable horizontally and vertically and moveably coupled to the worksurface. The worksurface or the monitor support is moveable in response to a movement of the other of the worksurface and the monitor support.
