TWO PHASE HOLD DOWN CONTAINERS FOR PIPELINES AND RELATED METHODS

摘要

Low cost, empty pipeline hold down containers are inexpensively and easily formed. No significant curing time is needed and storage of an inventory of containers is optional. The empty containers are light weight, highly safe to use, and require no mechanical equipment to handle. At a selected installation site, one or more containers are associated or combined with a pipeline and filled with relatively heavy, though inexpensive weight-adding material, such as sand, gravel, soil or water.
