  • Supports for storing sheets of granite, stone, glass, and other materials
    Patent number: 7264126
    Abstract: Supports used in pairs for storing and handling large sheets of heavy materials such as granite, stone and glass. Each support comprises a vertical, steel A-frame welded to a horizontal steel I-beam. Spaced-apart steel post holders are welded to the web of the I-beam. Removable vertical steel posts are inserted into some or all of the post holders to create “slots” for holding and supporting the sheets of material. Inserts can be placed in cavities parallel to the flanges of the I-beam to prevent the edges of the sheets of material from hitting the I-beam. Protective coatings can be attached or applied to the surfaces of the A-frame, the posts and the I-beam in order to protect the sheets of material. When the supports are used, sheets of material can be moved away from each other, utilizing the A-frame and posts, when a particular sheet is selected for removal.
