CONNECTOR FOR CONNECTING STRUCTURAL INSULATED PANELS
20230052391 · 2023-02-16 ·

A connector for a structural insulated panel includes a base, a pair of sidewalls extending substantially perpendicularly to the base and arranged spaced apart from each other, each sidewall including a rail portion. The connector also includes a body arranged between the pair of sidewalls and defining a first gap between a first sidewall of the pair of sidewalls and the body and a second gap between a second sidewall of the pair of sidewalls and the body. The first gap is adapted to receive a first edge portion of a first layer of the structural insulated panel and the second gap is adapted to receive a second edge portion of the structural insulated panel. The connector further includes a pair of tongues extending substantially parallel to an outer surface of the base and defining a pair of channels therebetween.

Wall mounting devices
11576502 · 2023-02-14 · ·

Wall mounting assemblies and methods are disclosed. The assembly includes a bracket that has two frame members coupled at a hinge. Each frame member has a hook for engaging a recess or slot on a panel. Rotating the two frame members causes the hooks to lock into the slots on the panel.

Fire-rated structural OSB panels with overlaid water-resistant barrier
11578487 · 2023-02-14 ·

A wood or engineered wood structural panel, such as, but not limited to, OSB (“oriented strand board”) or plywood, that is both fire-resistant and water resistant. The panel is factory-coated with a product that provides fire resistance. The treatment gives it a Fire-Resistant (FR) performance (for use in a one- or two-hour rated assembly). The panel also is overlaid or coated in a factory setting with a weather/water resistive barrier (WRB). The structural panel thus combines a fire-resistant structural sheathing and WRB product in one integrated panel produced at a factory prior for installation at a job site.

Modular wall system
11572691 · 2023-02-07 · ·

A lightweight, interlocking, freestanding, reconfigurable, all-weather wall system for use in law enforcement, emergency services, and military training. The wall system may comprise a plurality of wall panels and a plurality of panel interlocking connectors capable of temporarily connecting two or more wall panels. The modular wall system may be capable of being assembled and disassembled without the use of tools.

Floor panel and method for manufacturing a floor panel

A floor panel including at least one substrate and a top layer, where the substrate includes at least one first layer of a first thermoplastic material and a second layer of a second thermoplastic material. The second layer is adjacent to a first side of the first layer and the second layer provides the floor panel with its underside. The first layer is characterized by a first colour with saturation value S1 in the HSL colour space and the second layer is characterized by a second colour with saturation value S2 in the HSL colour space, where S1 is less than S2.

Sandwich panel and building module
11713573 · 2023-08-01 · ·

A building module which is a sandwich panel comprising a first region which provides part of the roof structure of a building, a second region which provides part of the wall structure of the building, and a third region which provides part of the floor structure of the building.

HUMIDITY AND SAG RESISTANT BUILDING PANEL

Described herein is a stain and sag resistant acoustic building panel comprising a porous body formed from building material and latex binder, wherein the building material may include fibers and filler and at one of the building materials has been pre-treated with a charge-modifying component, thereby enhancing the sag-resistance of the building panel.

Conductive paper for making electroactive surface in construction

A building construction product with an electroconductive surface, the building construction product comprising a core with one or more surfaces covered by an electroconductive paper comprising carbon fibers, the electroconductive paper being attached to the one or more surfaces of the core. Methods and materials for producing the building construction products with an electroconductive surface and products and methods for shielding an area from electromagnetic waves.

Pre-fabricated structures and methods
