Abstract
Reinforcement assemblies, reinforcement fixtures, methods of constructing a reinforcement assembly, and methods of constructing a reinforcement fixture are described herein. An example embodiment of a reinforcement assembly comprises a plate, a plurality of connectors, and a plurality of elongate members. The plate comprises a plate lengthwise axis, a plate center axis, a plate top surface, a plate bottom surface, and a plate outer surface. Each connector of the plurality of connectors is attached to the plate outer surface and each elongate member of the plurality of elongate members is attached to a connector of the plurality of connectors.
Claims13
A reinforcement assembly comprising:
- a plate having a plate lengthwise axis, a plate center axis, a plate top surface, a plate bottom surface, and a plate outer surface extending from the plate top surface to the plate bottom surface, the plate top surface having a plate diameter, the plate outer surface having a plate length that is less than the plate diameter, the plate lengthwise axis passing through the plate outer surface and disposed orthogonal to the plate center axis, the plate having a continuous surface along the plate diameter;
- a plurality of connectors, each connector of the plurality of connectors having a connector first end and a connector second end, the connector first end of each connector of the plurality of connectors attached to the plate outer surface, the connector first end and the connector second end of each connector of the plurality of connectors disposed on a first plane that contains the plate lengthwise axis and that is disposed orthogonally to the plate center axis;
- and
- a plurality of elongate members, each elongate member of the plurality of elongate members having an elongate member first end and an elongate member second end, the elongate member first end of each elongate member of the plurality of elongate member attached to a connector of the plurality of connectors, the elongate member first end and the elongate member second end of each elongate member of the plurality of elongate members disposed on the first plane.
