Abstract: A system includes a collaborative design system that includes a processor configured to display an industrial plant layout on a display. The processor is also configured to overlay the industrial plant layout onto a geographic image. Further, the processor is configured to receive one or more inputs from a plurality of remote users. In addition, the processor is configured to manipulate the layout with respect to the geographic image based on the one or more inputs. Moreover, the processor is configured to create an industrial plant design based on the industrial plant layout and the geographic image.

Abstract: A stand assist stool includes a main body member having a base member, and an inclined platform that is positioned above the base member. The stand assist stool, in one embodiment, may include a semi-circular indentation on a rear portion thereof to accommodate the base of a toilet, so that the stand assist stool may be positioned around the base of a toilet. Additionally, the inclined platform may include a cover, such as a carpet type of material, non-skid material, or any desired covering, and may also include a toilet riser on a rear portion thereof, which may be installed underneath a toilet to raise it up to a desired height, so that the inclined platform is attached to a front portion of the toilet riser. Optionally, the stool may be pivotally connected to a toilet so that it flips upwardly when not in use.
