Disclosed is a suspended ceiling system, a securing member, and process of installing a patterned suspended ceiling system. The suspended ceiling system includes a grid system having first members and second members, and at least one substrate which extends below the grid system. The at least one substrate has an exposed surface and a concealed surface, and the at least one substrate has first sides and second sides which extend between the exposed surface and the concealed surface. Securing members attach to the concealed surface proximate the first sides, and the securing members have grid engagement members which secure the at least one substrate to the grid system. The securing members cooperate with the first members and the second members of the grid system to properly position the substrate and the spacing between adjacent at least one substrates is controlled.

A shield reinforcement plate including a steel plate of approximately 1 to 3 mm thick, shaped in characteristic form by a tool in a continuous process. The shield reinforcement plate including 2 (two) holes, a pair of fins, also referred to as flaps and a fold at 90 relative to a base of the shield reinforcement plate. The fold referred to as a stiffener.

A Wind uplift strap for securing a coverage structure. The Wind uplift strap including one or more metal strips having a thickness between 0.50 mm and 1.1 mm, substantially equal to that of the coverage structure, and a width between approximately 15 mm and 50 mm, depending on the load to be supported. The Wind uplift strap having a slightly angled fold in more than 90, forming a flap at one of its ends. The Wind uplift strap further comprising a main body, a flap, a hole for fixing the flap, a fold line of the flap, and a hole at an end of the main body that is opposite the flap.

The present invention refers to a support, metallic or non-metallic, for disposing elements over a coverage (such as walkways, lightning arrester rods, photovoltaic panels, life lines, among other equipment and structures), taking benefit of existing holes in the coverage structure, for transferring the structural capacity to the top face of the coverage, without the need for perforations in the coverage sheet (tile).

This document discusses, among other things, unitized curtain systems and methods related to the fabrication and installation of curtainwalls. A curtainwall unit may comprises a frame including a horizontal gutter, a horizontal sill, a first vertical mullion between a first end of the horizontal gutter and a second end of the horizontal sill, and a second vertical mullion between a second end of the horizontal gutter and a second end of the horizontal sill. The horizontal gutter may include a rear channel extending across the horizontal gutter, and at least one protected horizontal channel at least partially beneath the rear channel, the rear channel having at least one opening to the at least one horizontal gutter. Each vertical mullion may include a protected vertical chamber having an opening to the at least one protected horizontal channel.

A retractable roof structure has a pair of longitudinally spaced supports, guide wires extending between said supports and positioned to support a covering in a required profile. The covering comprises a plurality of sections arranged in seriatim along the guide wires with each section slidably supported on the guide wires so as to be moveable between an open position in which the area beneath the covering is exposed and a closed position in which the area beneath the covering is covered. A drive member extends between the supports and is connected to one end of each of the sections at a first location to move the one end along the guide wires. A tensile member, such as a rope or cable, extends from the peak of the leading edge of one section to the lower corner of the leading edge of a section along a path so that movement of the peak is transmitted by the tensile member to the eaves to move the section along the eave guide wire in the same direction.

A ceiling system which includes a substrate and securing members configured to engage a grid system to mount the substrate to the grid system. The securing members may include a mounting flange positioned with its bottom surface adjacent to the substrate. The mounting flange may be coupled to the substrate via fasteners. The securing members may further include a positioning member protruding from a top surface of the mounting flange and terminating in a distal edge. The positioning member may have a first side edge and a second side edge. The securing members may include a grid engagement member extending from the distal edge of the positioning member. The grid engagement member may be located centrally between the first and second side edges of the positioning member. The grid engagement member may have a U-shaped engagement portion configured to engage a grid member of the grid system.
