A building facade system includes framework having shelf members secured to the floor slabs. The top terminal ends of vertical mullions are fastened to the shelf members, thereby hanging the mullions therefrom. Horizontal support members fastened to the mullions support infill panels and are coupled to shelf members which are on the below floor slab. Intermediate support members fastened to the mullions support slab edge cover panels. Posts are fastened to the shelf members and are secured to the floor slabs within troughs formed with embedded channels. The posts are horizontally and vertically adjustably fastenable to the shelf members. The shelf members are thereby also horizontally and vertically adjustable relative to the floor slabs. Terminal edges of the floor slabs can project into mullion cutouts.

A contiguous uni-body insulated hunting blind or outdoor shelter is disclosed herein. In an embodiment, the shelter is comprised of a main body element having a floor portion and a top portion. The main body element is formed as a single component having an outside layer, a middle layer, and an inner layer. The top portion provides an enclosure for all sides and a top covering. The top portion is also comprised of at least one opening portion and a door opening portion for installing a door for entering and exiting the structure. In embodiments, the top portion is comprised of a top wall, a front wall, a back wall, a left wall, and a right wall with at least one opening portion. In embodiments, the top portion is comprised of one opening portion on each wall except the top wall. In embodiments, the opening portions are configured with windows.

A moveable wall system and components therefore, including: 1. A flexible power connector configured to flex in only one direction whereby it can be pushed without buckling; 2. at least one wireless power transmission receiving station in one or more of the moveable wall and modular units mounted thereon, for receiving the wireless transmission of power and enable one to charge electronic devices and provide power to power receiving lamps or the like, without the need for plug-in electrical wiring; 3. an overhead track system for supporting the moveable wall laterally below at least two spaced parallel tracks, the wall including a core support member having at least two spaced frame members secured to the top of said core support and projecting laterally to either or both sides of core support, each including a pair of trolleys for suspending said moveable wall in said parallel overhead tracks, projecting upwardly from its respective frame member and engaging their respective track.

A modular safe room that can be installed in an enclosed space in existing homes, buildings and other occupied structures is disclosed. The modular safe room is constructed from three separate elements and can be sized to fit the desired space. The elements making up the modular safe room comprise tongue and slot elements for attachment to each other.

A portable modular shelter apparatus comprises a base, a roof, a plurality of wall elements, a plurality of corner elements, a photovoltaic solar collector, electrical circuit componentry and a utility panel. The base defines a storage compartment. The apparatus is configurable from a disassembled transport condition into an assembled condition, in which the base, roof, walls and corners are configured to releasably interlock to form a rigid shelter having a solar powered electricity supply circuit.

Multi-story retrofitting building escape units. In aspects, the units are prefabricated and may be stacked. In embodiments, water or other fire-deterrent liquid or foam may be stored or delivered in tubular legs of the unit or tubes with in the legs. A hose or other mechanism to apply the water or other liquid is located in one more units. Each unit comprises stairs that link up with stairs on units above or below so occupants can climb down, for example, and emergency personnel can climb up, for example. In aspects, one or more walls of the unit are fire walls or otherwise fire-retardant, fire-proof, or fire-resistant.

A customizable facility for manufacturing at least one product has at least one modular unit in communication with at least one central unit configured to provide utilities to the at least one modular unit. In some embodiments, the central unit(s) and modular unit(s) are positioned at least partially within a shell. Each modular unit can be a fermentation unit, a pre-viral unit, a post-viral unit, a utility space, a warehouse, a media buffer facility, an office, a personnel unit, or another unit. The modular units can be arranged to maximize a number of modular units within the shell while minimizing a footprint of the shell. A method of assembling a facility for manufacturing at least one product includes providing at least one central unit and providing at least one modular unit in communication with the central unit(s) such that utilities are provided by the central unit(s) to the modular unit(s).

A modular frame and structure system and method includes a framework and a cover coupled to the framework and configured to provide a desired structure. The framework includes a plurality of elongated frame members, and a plurality of coupling members for coupling the elongated frame members. One or more of the coupling members includes a releasable connecting device having a connecting mode for connecting the coupling members to the frame members and form the framework, the releasable connecting device having a release mode for disconnecting the elongated frame members from the coupling members. The cover includes one or more interlocking wall panels configured to engage and be supported by the elongated frame members, and one or more interlocking roof panels configured to engage and be supported by the elongated frame members.
