Abstract: A hoarding comprising wall elements and one or more wall supports, in which each wall support comprises a trough and a post, in which the trough is substantially rectangular in shape and has a first end and a second end, and in which in use the post is disposed substantially vertically at the first end of the trough, in which in use the post carries the wall elements, in which the trough is disposed behind the wall elements in use and is arranged perpendicular to the wall elements, and in which the trough carries ballast in use.

Abstract: A deck railing section comprises synthetic posts held spaced from one another by top and bottom rail members. Each of the rail members has a multiple piece construction including first and second interlocking synthetic rail pieces and a metallic reinforcing insert. The insert has holes at post attachment locations along the insert. Each post has screw ports to opposite ends of the post. Rail members are secured to the posts by threaded attachment members passing through the holes in the inserts and into the screw ports of the posts. The first rail pieces are trapped between the posts and the inserts. The second rail pieces lock onto the first rail pieces hiding the reinforcing inserts internally of the rail members.

Abstract: A metallic support comprises an upright support riser and base arm positioned a distance D laterally offset from the base of the broken post, interior of and upon the property of the owner of the fence. Such base arm integrally connects to the riser through curved regions that causes the riser to extend outward toward the broken fence post above the break area, but provides for ample burial space offset from the broken post below the riser. The curved regions are defined by a center of curvature.

Abstract: A fencing unit that can be utilized as a bracing member for a T-post type fence. The fence unit includes a front face member having front and back surfaces, a leg member rigidly affixed to the back surface and substantially perpendicular to the front face member so that the juncture of the front face member and the leg member substantially forms a “T” shaped cross-section; and engaging means for engaging the fence unit with a portion of another T-post. Another aspect of the present invention is a braced T-post fence assembly wherein the fencing unit is used as a bracing member between two spaced apart T-posts. A method for forming a braced fence assemblage or arrangement is also provided by inserting bracing member between two substantially vertical T-posts.

Abstract: A fencing system including a plurality of vertical support members for supporting a plurality of elongate support members so as to create a physical barrier. A plurality of elongate conductors are attached to the elongate support members and positioned so that the elongate conductors attached to each elongate support member run parallel to the elongate support members. A power supply is connected to the elongate conductors so that an electrical potential is created.

Abstract: Disclosed is a fence support including a generally vertically oriented main support post in the form of a T shaped iron bar and a single brace. The brace includes an elongated bearing element that is received in the bite of the T and a collar member fits over the top of the main support post and bearing elements to hold them together. The brace has at its bottom end a stake holder which receive a stakes that are driven into the ground. Two different gate adapters are shown for mounting in a hinge like manner a gate to a T-post or the like.

Abstract: A railing member comprising a hollow extrusion having a picket-receiving channel along the bottom thereof. The channel has an open bottom. The sides of the member have bottom edges which extend downwardly at least as far as the bottom of the channel. A railing assembly includes the top railing member, a bottom railing member below the top railing member, a plurality of spaced-apart support posts extending between the members and a plurality of pickets between the posts. The support posts have flat tops which are received against the bottom of the top railing member and are connected thereto.
