The present disclosure relates to components and methods for a modular building system, used for high-rise residential and office building, to pre-fabricate and assemble the system quickly, easily and simply. More particularly, it relates to a building temporary self-supporting panel system invention that includes formwork, structural rebars and insulated panels for the purpose of wall, floor and roof, also for the structure and enclosure. The building system is composed of a number of layers and a temporary-structural frame, integrating all constructive elements needed: temporary structural capacity, thermal and acoustical insulation, impermeability and pre-installations; designed considering operation, function, fabrication and assembling.

Composite walls have the structural components connected to form a substantially unitary structure. A composite wall is described that includes a block and/or brick wythe adhered to a poured concrete wall. The composite wall may also have a panel sheet material adhered to the poured concrete opposite surface of the poured concrete wall. Further, the composite wall may include a first wythe comprising concrete blocks, bricks, or a combination thereof, a poured concrete core, and a rigid insulation panel, wherein at least a portion of the blocks and/or bricks of the first wythe are adhered to a first surface of the concrete core and the rigid insulation panel is adhered to a second surface of the poured concrete core. Wire ties may extend from the mortar joints in the first wythe through the rigid insulation panel.

A fabricated self-resilient energy-dissipation double-steel-plate slotted shear wall structure includes steel columns, H-shaped steel beams and a shear wall assembly. The shear wall assembly includes left and right groups of slotted wall plates and is connected with flanges of the H-shaped steel beams through angle steel. Connecting ring plate assemblies are fixed to upper and lower ends of each steel column and each comprise an outer ring plate, an inner ring plate and a short side plate. A long side plate is fixedly arranged on each steel column tube and is connected with one slotted wall plate through a plurality of self-locking hasps. A plurality of pre-stressed steel strands are arranged on two sides of each long side plate.

Approaches describe a panel system (e.g., a closed-, open-, and/or solid-panel system) that can be assembled quickly and easily in the field without field modifications to the panel. The panels can be precision engineered, and include a building connection system for structural and/or utility connection between building elements. An interpanel connector can include a structural connector, a utility connector, or a combination connector that is both a structural and utility connector. A control component or another appropriate component can be used to automatically facilitate coupling of one or more building elements, and provide feedback on the assembly process.

The modular anti-ballistic shelter system includes two end units and, optionally, additional middle units for a wider structure. End and middle units may also stack atop each other for multi-story structures. Each unit is configured to comply with both ISO standards for size and weight, and with the U.S. Department of State Certification Standard for Forced Entry and Ballistic Resistance of Structural Systems. Each exterior wall of each end unit and each middle unit is reinforced with wall studs that penetrate the unit's structural framework of beams and frames. Even though these wall studs are welded into place, penetration of the wall studs into the beams and frames ensures acceptable blast, ballistic, and forced entry resistance even if the welds are flawed.

A building panel system is provided that includes a perimeter frame; a main beam attached to the perimeter frame; a carrier attached to the main beam, the carrier having a plurality of identical hook members, each of the hook members having a protruding hooking portion on only a first side of the hook member, and a non-hooking portion on a second side of the hook member, the second side being opposite the first side; and a plurality of panels removably attached to the carrier, each of the panels being attached to the carrier by engaging one of the hooking portions.

Novel structural shear panels used for construction of shear walls and shear diaphragms, as well as sheathings and deckings, and similar constructions, where the structural shear panels have novel shapes formed in a grid pattern, comprised of an ordered series of voids, and material in the form of a grid, called grid pattern structural shear panels, where the ordered series of voids reduce the amount of raw material and weight in said grid pattern structural shear panels, and the material in the form of a grid is configured so that it resists the design loads required for the structural use of said grid pattern structural shear panels, and is also configured so that it provides a surface for the connection of said grid pattern structural shear panels to framing members and other building components by the means of fasteners, consistent with standardized construction industry spacings for said fasteners, and where said ordered series of voids provides points of graspability throughout the plane of said grid pattern structural shear panels, as well as the benefits of ventilation, visibility, the passage of light, and facilitates the penetration of small conduits throughout the plane of said grid pattern structural shear panels, without interrupting said material in the form of a grid.

A genset enclosure includes a skid platform, a plurality of gusset members, a plurality of roof supports, and a first and second plurality of sidewall panels. The gusset members are spaced along an outer perimeter of the skid platform and are coupled to the skid platform using fasteners. The gusset members are arranged in opposed pairs positioned on opposite lateral ends of the skid platform. Each gusset member defines a first portion extending upwardly from the skid platform normal to an upper surface of the skid platform and a second portion disposed at an upper end of the first portion and extending normal to the first portion and toward a centerline of the skid platform. The gusset members support the plurality of roof supports and the first and second plurality of sidewall panels to form an enclosed volume.
