METHOD AND MODULE SYSTEM FOR BUILDING A WALL STRUCTURE
A method and a module system for building purposes by using a module system is provided, said module system including a plurality of mutually equal-sized basic components, which are assembled for a wall structure in one or more vertical planes by installing the same in connection with each other side by side and on top of each other. The wall structure is put together from substantially thin-walled basic components, which are open at ends thereof opposite in a lengthwise direction thereof and have an open internal space, and which are coupled to each other side by side and on top of each other with connection pieces capable of being connected with a first form locking joint to lengthwise coupling arrangements present on each external side thereof. The basic components are coupled to each other with an end block interconnecting the basic components by the opposite ends thereof.
MODULAR WALL SECTIONS WITH ELECTRICAL, PLUMBING AND STRUCTURAL GROUND CONNECTORS
Improvements in pre-fabricated modular wall sections to construct a building or house is disclosed. Adjacent side of the wall sections are tapered and dovetailed that lock-in-place. The dovetails are spaced to reduce the height that one section must be lifted to engage in an adjoining wall section. The footers/base plate will also have integrated earthquake or hurricane hold-downs in the footer/base plate that aligns and can be secured from the foundation to the wall sections. The connection of the wall section to the foundation to have counter flashing at the concrete insert and the wall-to-wall sections can be self-flashed. The wall sections can have GPS locators for positioning the wall sections. Plumbing and electrical conduit creating circuits that can be integrated into the walls and are connected sealed or bonded together.
Constructive arrangement introduced in module for panels intended for the construction of prefabricated buildings
A constructive arrangement introduced in module for panels intended to the construction of prefabricated buildings. The modules for the construction of prefabricated buildings, having the objective of facilitating the handling and portability of each module; as well as increasing the structural strength of the module, and, consequently, of the panels composed of such modules. The constructive arrangement comprises of a module consisting of a galvanized metal sheet, folded at the ends, configuring characteristic profiles in the shape of an open socket, and a closed socket, capable of configuring panels by conjoining the modules screwed together and grouped by the upper and lower profiles, characterized by having stiffening ribs near the central portion of the sheets, and stiffening ribs near the profiles.

WALL SECTION FORMED OF FOLDED SHEET METAL
A wall section formed from sheet metal has a main panel, opposing vertical side flanges extending rearwardly from the side edges of the main panel, top and bottom horizontal flanges extending rearwardly from the panel, and stiffening flanges extending perpendicularly from the rear edges of the side, top and bottom flanges, thereby forming load bearing side beams, a header and a sill plate, the side flanges for attachment to the those of abutting wall sections to form a wall.

In-frame shear wall
Embodiments of the invention relate to structural panel systems, and in particular in-frame fluted panel systems. The in-frame fluted panel systems allow for improved strength and/or ductility within a reduced wall thickness by installing the fluted panels within the framing of the support members in various configurations. The in-frame fluted panel systems further allows for easier construction and lower costs than conventional systems that have fluted panels located outside of the support members.

Modular building construction
A building panel is constructed of a corrugated material. The panel can be folded into a U-shaped configuration. Successive folded panels can be coupled together using complementary shaped corrugations to fix panels in position relative to each other. Shaped connectors can be used to connect building panels in one plane to building panels in another plane.
