An elevator cab protection system is provided. The system includes first and second panels and three clips. Each of the clips includes a lower leg portion and an upper leg portion. The first clip is coupled to the first panel by a fastener. The lower leg portion of the first clip and the first panel define a first downwardly opening slot. The second clip is coupled to the first panel by a fastener with the upper leg portion of the second clip located above the upper end of the first panel. The third clip is coupled to the second panel by a fastener. The lower leg portion of the third clip is configured to be inserted into the upwardly opening slot defined by the upper leg portion of the second clip and the wall of the elevator cab to support the second panel relative to the first panel.

Curtain wall mullion anchoring systems for resisting dead load and negative wind load, and that permit three-way construction tolerance adjustments. The mullion anchoring systems include an anchoring device secured to a building structural element and attached to a mullion connection bridge, which is connected to a mullion connection clip, which is connected to a mullion. Uplifting forces on the anchoring device may be significantly reduced or even eliminated by transmitting dead load under negative wind load conditions from the mullion to the anchoring device at a point over the inside of a concrete floor slab, such that the dead load counteracts any uplifting force generated by the negative wind load.

A rope net facade is presented, where the rope net of which is made of carbon or a composite material. The rope net and the facade elements lie in one plane, resulting in a slender, aesthetically pleasing facade, both sides of which are accessible without restriction, for example for cleaning the glass facade.

A cladding system that is used to form a building envelope is disclosed. The system includes pre-fabricated modular cladding panels, each including a composite layer mounted onto metal or alloy sub-frame. The composite layer provides an outer insulation to the system, and a generally flat outer surface to which a veneer may be mounted. The composite layer further acts as an air and vapour barrier for the building envelope. The sub-frames may connect to one another by a tongue and groove interconnect.

A curtain-wall anchor includes a back member having a first arcuate slotted aperture and a second aperture formed therein. The first arcuate slotted aperture receives a first mounting bolt and the second aperture receives a second mounting bolt. A first plurality of vertically-oriented ridges are formed in the back member proximate the first arcuate slotted aperture and the second aperture. A first locking washer is received onto the first mounting bolt. The first locking washer includes a second plurality of vertically-oriented ridges that are complementary to the first plurality of vertically-oriented ridges formed in the back member. The first arcuate slotted aperture facilitates angular adjustment of the back member. Engagement of the second plurality of vertically-oriented ridges with the first plurality of vertically-oriented ridges facilitates securement of the back member in a select angular position.

The present invention relates to a connective installation structure for modularized windows and doors, the connective installation structure successively arranging and connectively installing, in the horizontal direction, modularized sliding-type doors and windows, doors, or door-type windows that form the window and doors of a building, with fixed windows arranged in the spaces between the windows and doors. The present invention provides the connective installation structure for modularized windows and doors so as to provide a simplified double frame support structure in which the connective structure lateral section view of the frame, formed by the elevation view of the elements that form the connective installation structure of windows and doors, comprises just (window glass or door panel)—window sash frame—window frame—(fixed window glass), the connective installation structure for windows and doors successively arranging and connectively installing, in the horizontal direction, the sliding-type windows, doors, or door-type windows.
