A layered building element for protecting exterior or interior building surfaces is disclosed. Exterior or interior surfaces may include both vertical and horizontal surfaces, such as walls, roofs, or floors. The layered building element includes a flexible sheet comprising at least one elastomer layer in communication with an elastomer-impregnated fiberglass layer. Each elastomer layer may be bound in communication to the fiberglass layer at an interface comprising elastomer-impregnated fiberglass. The flexible sheet may form, for example, shingles, tiles, or a cylindrical roll, which may support portability and installation of the layered building element.

A portable construction tent is provided. The portable construction tent is especially suitable for use in inclement weather conditions. In particular, the portable construction tent is especially suitable for use on a building when construction or repair is being done to the roof of the building. The portable tent unfolds, is adjusted for size, and then is secured to the parapet walls of the roof and finally is locked into place. A discard-able, recycle-able wrap is draped over support poles of the tent and is secured. In an embodiment, the wrap may be a low-density polyethylene film or cellophane. Further, in an embodiment, the wrap may be heat shrunk around the poles (which may be steel rafters), which are bolted to the parapet walls. Once in place, the portable construction tent allows workers to work on the roof of a building in almost any weather condition.

A system for providing covers for surface areas of built structures; the system including a film of heat shrinkable material for stretching and heat shrinking over one or more of the surfaces of the built structure; the film formed as a sheet comprising an assembly of lengths of the heat shrinkable material prepared on a supporting surface; characterized in that the sheet is prepared by applying heat to overlap portions between adjoining lengths of the heat shrinkable material while the overlap portions are secured in contact between the supporting, surface and a guide rail assembly laid over the overlap portions; the overlap portions welded together by a heat gun moveable along the guide rail assembly at a predetermined distance above the overlap portions.

The present invention relates to an on-site mobile facility for shielding from wind exerting a wind load on the facility, rain or snow when constructing, renovating or assembling a building, a bridge or a wind turbine, the on-site mobile facility covering an area having boundaries and corners, comprising: a plurality of modules, each module having a module roof structure, the module roof structures being mounted as a facility roof structure connecting horizontal beams of the module roof structures, the facility roof structure having edges and the horizontal beams defining the edges which are supported by legs, the legs and the beams defining side areas, the side areas being covered by a shielding arrangement, the shielding arrangement of the side area comprising elongated elements, and cover material, such as tarpaulin, being arranged between the elements and connected therewith, wherein the on-site mobile facility further comprises a guide system for guiding the shielding arrangement of the side area, the guide system being slidably connecting the elements with one of the beams or the adjacent legs so as to at least partly uncover the side areas, so that wind is allowed to pass through the facility by passing through the uncovered part of the side area and out through an uncovered part of the side area on another side of the on-site mobile facility to reduce the wind load on the facility in order for the facility to remain unaffected by the wind load during heavy winds. The present invention also relates to a facility mounting method for mounting the on-site mobile facility according to the present invention.

Provided is a structure protection sheet that allows for easy and long-lasting repair of the surface of a roof of a structure and that can successfully reduce the temperature rise of the roofing material in the repaired part. The structure protection sheet is a sheet to be attached to the surface of a roof of a structure and includes, in order, a bonding layer, a polymer-cement hardened layer, and a thermal barrier resin layer.

A weather resistant temporary wall system and method useful for forming a temporary barrier during building construction or renovation includes a series of modular wall panels that may be removably fit together in the size needed. The wall panels have complimentary shaped edge profiles that form a protective barrier against water penetration. The wall panels may be assembled on site in vertically stacked relationship between a pair of support posts which extend from floor to ceiling. The side edges of the wall panels have edge profiles that are complimentary in shape to the side edges of the support posts such that the panels may be removably attached to the support posts. The wall panels may further include a string reinforced polyethylene material for increased strength.
