A drain assembly comprises a shroud, a shank, and a frame. The drain assembly may further comprise a shim with an angled top surface. The frame may have an angled bottom surface. A rotational orientation of the angled top surface of the shim relative to the shank and a rotational orientation of the angled bottom surface of the frame relative to the shank may be independently adjustable, thereby allowing for the top surface of the frame to be both angularly and rotationally adjusted relative to a central axis of the drain assembly independent of the positional height of the shank. The drain assembly may further comprise a cover having bendable tabs. The bendable tabs may be disposed around a periphery of the cover and may be configured to contact an angled inner surface of an upper bowl of the shroud, such that the bendable tabs bend around the frame, thereby locking the cover onto the frame.

With a view to a quick and safe construction of an elevator using structurally simple and cost-effective means, a method for constructing an elevator in particular, a freight elevator—on a construction site, and preferably in a factory hall. The elevator is built from several components arranged one atop the other. The method includes providing a base for the elevator; positioning a lifting device on the base; raising an upper component of the elevator by way of the lifting device; positioning a lower component, which is to be arranged underneath the upper component, under the raised upper component; lowering the upper component onto the lower component by way of the lifting device; and removing the lifting device from the base. Further specified is an elevator constructed according to said method.

A profile for terraces and balconies includes a substantially flat wing for anchoring the profile to the floor of the terraces, a front portion for protection of the external edge of the flooring which protrudes outward with respect thereto, and a first drip lip constituted by a contoured element which extends downward. The first drip lip has, at the lower end, at least one first protrusion and at least one second protrusion, lower than the first, both protruding downward and outward with respect to the front portion. The profile also includes a second drip lip, which is substantially parallel to the first drip lip, extends downward from the wing and includes a third protrusion which protrudes downward and toward the first drip lip.

A fire rated glass flooring system having blast and/or seismic loading resistance, comprising: (a) a plurality of glass flooring units (100a, 100b), each unit comprising a first layer (116) of glass and a second layer (118) of glass, the two layers being positioned one above the other and separated by one or more load transferring means (120a, 120b), wherein the first layer of glass is a structural glass and the second layer of glass is a fire rated glass, and having an upper surface and an edge comprising a load-transferring means of the one or more load transferring means; (b) one or more beams (112), arranged, in use, to support the units, wherein, at a boundary between two adjacent flooring units, the two flooring units are arranged, in use, to be secured to a beam of the one or more beams; and (c) one or more expansion joints (110), each arranged, in use, at the boundary between two adjacent flooring units. Each expansion joint comprises: (i) two clips (200a, 200b), each clip being arranged, in use, to be connected to the load-transferring means in one of the two flooring units; (ii) a resilient seal (202) arranged, in use, to sit between the two clips, the seal extending substantially to the upper surface of the two units; and (iii) a drainage means (204), the drainage means being located substantially below the seal and the two clips, and arranged, in use, to capture and drain away any liquid which passes the seal.

A vented and water control paneling has improved drainage and integrated ventilation air space. The water control paneling may be fabricated with an omnidirectional relief pattern formed on its back surface. The relief pattern spaces the vented and water control paneling away from a structure to which it is secured, thereby providing an omnidirectional drainage plane between the back surface of the paneling and the structure. The omnidirectional drainage plane provides an unimpeded ventilation and drainage path of water and/or water vapor.
