Abstract: We show that the theories of partially ordered sets, lattices, semilattices, Boolean algebras, Heyting algebras with a further coarser partial order, or a linearization, or an auxiliary relation have the strong amalgamation property, Fra"i ss'e limits and, in many cases, an $omega$-categorical model completion with quantifier elimination. The same applies to Kronheimer and Penrose's causal spaces. On the other hand, Urquhart doubly ordered sets do not have the amalgamation property. Our main tool is the superamalgamation property (the strong amalgamation property is not enough), thus we provide further arguments suggesting the usefulness of the superamalgamation property also in pure model theory, not only in algebraic logic.
