A support pedestal that is adapted to support surface tiles to form an elevated building surface. The support pedestal can include a base member that is adapted to be placed upon a fixed surface and a support plate that is disposed over the base member for supporting a surface tile. An anchoring washer is fastened to the support plate and anchors adjacent surface tiles to the support pedestal. The anchoring washers can be rotated to selectively disengage from at least one of the adjacent surface tiles. By rotating an anchoring washer in each corner of a surface tile to disengage the anchoring washers, the surface tile can be easily and rapidly removed from the building surface without necessitating the removal of adjacent surface tiles.

Anchoring systems and interfaces for flexible surgical implants for replacing cartilage

Surgical implants for replacing cartilage are provided with hydrogel polymers affixed to anchors made of “shape-memory” materials, such as nitinol alloys. These implants can be flexed, allowing them to be inserted into joints arthroscopically. After insertion, an implant will return to its manufactured size and shape, and can be anchored to bone or other tissue. The anchoring components can grip and hold hydrogels or other soft polymers by means of an interface of porous fabric. The fabric can support a reinforcing mesh embedded within the soft polymer, and its bottom surface can promote tissue ingrowth, leading to stronger anchoring. Two or more porous layers can enclose a soft polymer, for purposes such as sustained drug release or holding transplanted cells.
