PORCELAIN BOARD TILE ASSEMBLIES, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS FOR SURFACE INSTALLATIONS
The present disclosure provides embodiments of a porcelain board tile assembly. In an embodiment, assembly includes two or more porcelain board tiles cut from a reinforced porcelain panel product. A bottom surface of each porcelain board tiles to be adhesively affixed to a mounting wall when installed. Each reinforced porcelain panel product includes a porcelain slab and a structural core board. The structural core board includes a foam-core material having a surface area and a thickness greater than the porcelain slab. A top surface of the structural core board is positioned in contact with a bottom surface of the porcelain slab with an adhesive. A buffer region, defined by regions of the structural core board extending beyond outer peripheries of the porcelain slab, enhances protection from cracking when the reinforced porcelain panel product is handled. The structural core board is configured to attach to the mounting wall.
Wall Corner Protection Magnetic Device
A wall corner protection device is disclosed. The wall corner protection device is magnetically attached to the wall corner and comprises a first wall and a second wall, the first wall and the second wall are transversally disposed to each other forming a 90-degree angle therebetween. The first wall has one or more earth magnets disposed therein and the second wall has one or more earth magnets disposed therein. The earth magnets are configured to provide magnetic attachment to the metal corner bead(s) of the wall corners for adhering the wall corner protection device to the wall corner. The device is configured to protect wall corners from physical damage by preventing direct contact with the wall corner.

Impact absorbing flooring
The present invention provides an impact absorbing flooring that reduces an impact caused by falling of a user. The impact absorbing flooring includes a structural layer having a plurality of impact absorbing structures, each of which is a truncated pyramid-shaped structure and has a recess on a side of the truncated pyramid that is substantially not horizontal to a ground surface.
SHOCK-ABSORBING STRUCTURE AND FLOOR MATERIAL
The shock-absorbing structure includes a top plate including an upper surface to receive a load, and at least one leg extending in the Z-axis direction from the lower surface of the top plate and has a cross-sectional shape convexly flexed toward one side in the X-Y plane. When the load is applied from the upper surface side of the top plate in the shock-absorbing structure, the legs contract in the Z-axis direction to absorb the load until the load exceeds the threshold load, and once the load exceeds the threshold load, the legs become soft by bending toward the opposite side and being displaced largely while spreading their convexly-flexed cross-sectional surfaces in the Z-Y plane, and after the displacement, the legs can further absorb the load by abutting the upper side and the lower side of the side surface to contract in the Z-axis direction.

Dual-purpose progressive stage load-distributing and absorbing system
A multi-purpose progressive stage load distributing and absorbing system that lies below a superstructure material that is exposed to percussive forces. The progressive stage load distributing and absorbing system is interposed between the superstructure material and a foundation. The system has a barrier layer that lies below the superstructure material and an underlayment infrastructure positioned below the barrier layer. Included in the underlayment infrastructure are hat-shaped absorbing members that have a relatively compliant region and one or more relatively stiff regions.
