Abstract

A modular dike or barrier system includes interconnectable side and corner members having front and rear walls with integrally formed support ribs. Upper, base and side end walls connect and are integral with the front and rear walls. Each of the front and rear walls extends at an acute angle relative to the base wall that is configured to rest against a substratum. The inward acute angle allows for containing and redirecting a surge flow inwardly within an area contained by the barrier system in a direction away from the members. The members are generally plate-like and are configured to allow for horizontal stacking on the substratum. Members can include a selectively collapsible support assembly configured to be retained at central bodies of the respective members and to limit interference during stacking and transport of the members.

Abstract

A dike wall section for assembling a dike wall is taught. The dike wall section has an elongate body, a pin at a male end of the body; and a socket at the female end of the body, the pin and socket being operable to connect additional sections to the first section by a pin-in-socket connection having a vertical axis.

Abstract

A modular dike or barrier assembly includes straight and curved members that may be interconnected to form a barrier or dike wall surrounding a primary container. The members are hollow and include opposed side walls having integrally formed reinforcing ribs. The side walls extend at an acute angle relative to the base of the barrier to contain and redirect a surge flow directed toward the dike or barrier assembly. The interior surfaces of the side walls are closely spaced at locations spaced from the ribs and tend to abut for added wall reinforcement upon application of wall deflecting loads.

Abstract

A modular dike assembly includes strut and corner members that may be interconnected to form a barrier or dike wall surrounding a primary container. The strut members are stackable for convenience in transporting the system and an alignment web is provided for defining the interior perimeter of the closed barrier or dike wall and to secure assembled members together.
