A shear wall panel utilizes improved corner connection to effectively connect vertical chords and horizontal tracks of the shear wall panel to diagonal brace members and accommodating anchoring of the panel frame to horizontal building components. The panel frame uses structural corner brackets interiorly mounted to the corners of the panel adapted to receive anchor bolt connection adjacent the corner and diagonal bracing connection at a position spaced from the anchor bolt connection. Preferably, the shear wall panel is manufactured in a factory and shipped to a job site as a finished panel frame.

A system for mounting a load to a wall frame is disclosed. The system has upper and lower mounting systems. Each of the upper and lower mounting systems has a wall bracket and a load bracket. The wall brackets of the upper and lower mounting systems each include a retaining flange, and are configured to be mounted to the wall frame. While the wall brackets of the upper and lower mounting systems are mounted to the wall frame, a space is defined between the wall and the retaining flanges. The wall bracket of the lower mounting system includes a ledge that is configured to support the load. The load brackets of the upper and lower mounting systems each include a retainable flange, and are configured to be mounted to the load. While the load is mounted to the wall, the weight of the load is supported by the ledge.

A structure with integrated insulation. The structure with integrated insulation includes a steel frame, the steel frame including a first vertical support beam and a second vertical support beam. The structure with integrated insulation also includes a building panel with integrated insulation. The building panel with integrated insulation including a first surface, a second surface, where the second surface is opposite the first surface, a first edge, where the first edge is disposed between the first surface and the second surface, and a second edge, where the second edge is disposed between the first surface and the second surface and is opposite the first edge. The building panel with integrated insulation being attached to the first vertical support beam on the first surface of the building panel with integrated insulation and attached to the second vertical support beam on the second surface of the building panel with integrated insulation.

A reusable modular housing system has a gridded structure comprising reusable components with dimensions corresponding to a two-unit system. The structure has floor and ceiling grids with dimensions that correspond to multiples of a first unit of measurement. The vertical beams that connect the floor and ceiling grids are spaced apart at dimensions that also correspond to multiples of the first unit of measurement. The structure has a variety of other components that can be coupled to the floor and ceiling grids and the vertical beams, and those other components have dimensions that correspond to a multiple of a second unit of measurement. Dimensions of the structure can vary, but each of the component parts can be detachably coupled into the gridded structure, so as to fit within the grid's dimensions based on respective multiples of the first unit of measurement and the second unit of measurement. The structure can be assembled into a first configuration, and when use of the structure is completed, the structure can be disassembled into its component parts which can be later assembled into the first configuration or a different second configuration. Use of a two-unit system of dimensions for the system allows for component parts to be reused on the same or other structures designed within the same dimensional system.

A structural assembly comprises a first extruded component having a length and a constant cross section. The cross section defines a first cavity and a second cavity separated by a wall of the first extruded component. An aperture extends through the wall between the first and second cavities. Second and third extruded components have respective lengths and constant cross sections. A first connector is positioned within the first cavity of the first extruded component and extends into the second extruded component. A second connector is positioned within the second cavity of the first extruded component and extends into the third extruded component. A fastener extends through the first connector, the aperture, and the second connector and is configured to secure the first and second connectors to the first extruded component.

Pyramidal housing autonomous and suitable for different environmental conditions. Its pyramidal structure (1) is made up of metal profiles (10) that include corner pillars (10a), side pillars (10b), beams or cross structures of mezzanine (17)(19) and rafters that form the openings (4), being the pillars anchored to the foundation beam (13); over this structure, the outer covers (15) that form the pyramidal walls (15a) are mounted; in the blind sections of the outer cover (15) of the upper floor there are mounting supports (32) for arrangements of solar panels (30), while at the apex (12) there is a wind energy generator; other blind sectors allow the mounting of a solar heater (50).

An apparatus and method for a wall panel system having a plurality of wall panels arranged within a framework. The wall panels may include a plurality of retention devices releasably engaging the framework to position the wall panels relative to the wall panel system. One or more of the retention devices may be actuated to engage and disengage from the framework. The wall panel system may include trim releasably engaging the framework.

The present invention has various types of horizontal bracing channels, longitudinal spacing-bracing channels, couplings, bracing clips, support channels, hole shapes within the support channels and orientation of the various elements that affect how wall panels are made. The structural insulating core includes the framing members and spacer blocks between the framing members that interlock together by having a structural insulating core of foam spacers with a tongue side and groove side interlocking the foam spacers between vertical metal support channels including the horizontal bracing channels, longitudinal spacing-bracing channels having notches, couplings and bracing clips connecting together.
