Disclosed is a system and method of constructing modular homes, which are assembled from a numbered of prefabricated components and delivered as finished goods using standard containers. The modular design further provides for a self-sufficient structure where the three main engineering systems, namely, plumbing, electrical and HVAC, are completely integrated allowing the structure to maximize energy usage efficiencies. Emphasis is placed on using only environmentally friendly materials and on recycle or multi-purposing components into energy or resource gathering and production. Another emphasis is placed on speed of assembly using standardized structures that streamline on the job assembly processes.

Dynamic, fire-resistance-rated thermally insulating and sealing system for use with curtain wall structures

An approved dynamic construction is used for effectively thermally insulating and sealing of a safing slot between a floor of a building and an exterior wall construction. The exterior wall construction includes a curtain wall configuration defined by an interior wall glass surface including one or more aluminum framing members, wherein the vision glass extends to the finished floor level below. The dynamic, thermally insulating and sealing system includes a first element for receiving the insulating elements and positioned in the zero spandrel area of a glass curtain wall construction including only vision glass to maintain thermally insulating and sealing of the sating slot during exposure to fire and heat as well as movement in order to maintain a complete seal extending across the safing slot.
