Technology, Equipment
Technical information:
1.
The material used to make the platform should be changed to fiberglass, and foundation piles should be used only as needed to reduce the overall weight. Embedding metal in the fiberglass when attaching the piles with the foundation will accelerate the assembly. 2. When assembling multiple floating toilets, the rope that holds each floating toilet together and the tow rope must be strong. 3.
