A balcony is attachable to an attachment beam extending from a building in order to attach the balcony with respect to the building. The balcony comprises: a floor which provides a safe, usable surface for the end-user of the balcony to stand on; and a plurality of rafters. Each rafter comprises: a floor portion which defines a part of the floor, and a strengthening portion which is located below the floor portion and extends downwardly from the floor portion. The floor portions of the rafters cooperate to define the floor. Each of the plurality of rafters is an integrally formed component.

Embodiments are directed to a hinged perimeter barrier or wall for an industrial worksite. The perimeter barrier may be formed from a series of wall sections that include hinged panels. The wall sections may be delivered to the worksite in an unextended configuration and then hoisted (by crane) into an extended configuration. A top panel may include a set of lifting features that may be engaged to raise (unfold) the panels and form the wall section. The wall section may be secured to a structural support using a support attachment assembly. The perimeter barrier may be used to mitigate various byproducts of an industrial worksite, including noise, dust, odor, light, and so on. The panels may be formed from an acoustic dampening material, visual mitigation material, and/or various other materials as may be appropriate for a given worksite.

A modular workspace system employs a plurality of interchangeable posts, beams/rails, and panels, permitting assembly of modular rooms and modular room structures of varying size, shape, and purpose. Wire management openings permit internal wire management.

An installation and construction method of a wall panel is provided for installing the wall panel to a pair of wooden columns and a wooden horizontal member, the wooden columns being installed in a standing manner so as to be spaced apart from each other, the wooden horizontal member being installed to the wooden columns. The method includes: forming the wall panel by connecting mutually adjacent end portions of a plurality of surface members in a horizontal direction by a half column extending in a vertical direction, studs being fixed on first plate surfaces of the plurality of surface members; and after installing the wooden horizontal member to the wooden columns and adjusting erection of the wooden columns, fixing edge end portions of the surface members of the wall panel to front surfaces of the wooden columns and a front surface of the wooden horizontal member.

A winged fastener includes a head, a shaft, and a plurality of wings, and other configurations with a single wing. The head disposed at a first end of the winged fastener. The shaft is coupled to the head and extends to a second end of the winged fastener, the shaft including a threaded portion that is disposed between the head and the second end of the winged fastener. The plurality of wings coupled to the shaft and disposed between the threaded portion and the second end of the winged fastener, a width of the plurality of wings being greater than a width of the threaded portion. A building construction is likewise shown, as is a method of using a winged fastener to couple portions of a building construction.

A slide clip includes a first plate and a second plate coupled at a juncture. The first plate and the second plate form an angle at the juncture. The second plate has a first elongated slot, a second elongated slot, and a third elongated slot, each extending parallel with the juncture. The first elongated slot and the second elongated slot are each offset from the juncture a first distance. The third elongated slot is offset from the juncture a second distance that is greater than the first distance.

A method, system and splice apparatus comprise a first wall bracket to couple to a first support member. A second wall bracket is coupled to a second support member, the first and second wall brackets comprising a composite material. A splice apparatus includes a first end, a second end, a first side, and a second side on an opposite side of the splice apparatus from the first side of the splice apparatus, the first end of the splice apparatus disposed proximate to a second end of the first wall bracket and the second end of the splice apparatus disposed proximate to a first end of the second wall bracket. The splice apparatus is fastened to at least one of the first wall bracket and the second wall bracket to maintain substantial alignment of the first wall bracket with the second wall bracket.

A standardized structural metal plug assembly that, when welded to metal columns and beams, allows to join them together into a bi-axial moment connection without bolts or on-site welding. The plug is assembled in a gravity and interlocking fashion. It is composed of one flange cruciform joint that works as a “male” outward component that channels the beam's “female” inward bracket into its seated and locked position. The column terminals also act as “female” inward component that slips and seats over the flange cruciform joint ends. All the components are lock-in-place to the flange cruciform joint due to various mechanical locking latches attached to the beam brackets and column terminals.

The present invention discloses a structure for connecting a composite insulation exterior wall panel and a steel structural beam-column, including a steel structural beam and a steel structural column making up a a steel structural body. A filling insulation layer is provided at a gap of the steel structural body. A composite insulation panel connecting assembly is wrapped at a junction between the steel structural beam and the steel structural column. The composite insulation panel connecting assembly is connected to a horizontal composite insulation panel assembly, via a staggered seam, in a horizontal direction, and the composite insulation panel connecting assembly is connected to a vertical composite insulation panel assembly, via a staggered seam, in a vertical direction.

A dry process connected energy-consuming beam column joint based on a corbel includes a prefabricated concrete corbel column, pre-buried steel plates and connecting steel plates, wherein the corbel section of the prefabricated concrete corbel column is stepped, and a notch section of a prefabricated concrete notch beam is matched with the stepped section of the corbel and is in lap joint to the stepped section; the pre-buried steel plates are separately pre-buried on the upper and lower surfaces of the corbel and the prefabricated concrete notch beam, friction plates are arranged outside the pre-buried steel plates, and slight tooth spaces are arranged on the sides, facing the pre-buried steel plates, of the friction plates; and the connecting steel plates are arranged on the left and right sides of the prefabricated concrete notch beam and the corbel lap joint section.
