A foldable building structure package having a first folded configuration and a second unfolded configuration. The package has a first enclosure component portion and an enclosure member selected from the group consisting of an enclosure component and a second enclosure component portion, with the enclosure member being joined to and moveable with respect to the first enclosure component portion from a folded position to an unfolded position to form a first part of the building structure in its second unfolded configuration. There is a first deployment bracket secured to the first enclosure component portion, a deployment strut adapted to be secured to the first deployment bracket at a first end and having a rotatable sheave at a second end, and a fastener positioned on the enclosure member for receiving a line run from the tang over the rotatable sheave.

An acoustic booth can comprise a frame comprising an upper portion and a plurality of vertical column members extending downwardly from the upper portion. A roof can be coupled to the upper portion of the frame. At least one sidewall extending downwardly from the roof. The roof and at least one sidewall can cooperate to define an interior. The at least one sidewall can define an interior surface. The interior surface of the at least one sidewall can have a cycloidal shape in cross section in horizontal planes. The at least one sidewall, in cross section in horizontal planes spaced relative to a vertical axis, can have a shape of a square with rounded corners. The acoustic booth can further comprise a floor comprising a sound attenuating material. The acoustic booth can further comprise a microphone divider panel extending downwardly from the roof and partitioning a first zone from a second zone.

A modular shelter structure is an apparatus that provides readily available housing for a variety of environments. The apparatus includes a shelter, a plurality of first locking mechanisms, and a plurality of second locking mechanisms. The shelter includes a floor base, a plurality of portable walls, and at least one roof panel. The floor base balances the shelter across various terrains. The plurality of portable walls surrounds the floor base and defines an interior environment with the floor base. The interior environment is enclosed with the at least one roof panel. The plurality of portable walls is attached onto the floor base with the plurality of first locking mechanisms. Similarly, the plurality of portable walls is attached onto the roof panel with the plurality of second locking mechanisms. The plurality of first locking mechanisms and the plurality of second locking mechanisms each include an inner tube and an outer sleeve.

The invention refers to the area of construction of structures for personal public purposes, namely, to prefabricated transported structures for installation in limited spaces and can be used in the construction of rapidly erected mobile spatial structures of various functional purposes, as well as in places where capital construction is prohibited. The invention consists in the mobile modular house containing folding blocks that are house components connected between each other, with all components of the house placed on a wheeled platform, and its walls and windows formed from separate modules of a triangular shape, made of solid material, with the edges around the perimeter of each module equipped with magnetic tapes. The technical result to be attained using the invention claimed is decreased assembly time, decreased labor intensity of the assembly, and increased variability of the finished product.

This invention provides a modular folding building structure having at least one room unit assembled from two foldable modules that are coupled together and a roof. Room units can be used singly or ganged together to form multiroom structures. Each room unit has a floor that may include floor panels or floor planks supported by a floor frame. The walls on each foldable module are connected to a base with hinges, such that each room module has a storage position in which the walls are folded down parallel to the floor. Each module also has an erect position in which the walls are unfolded to a vertical orientation perpendicular to the floor by rotating a wall around the hinges. The walls may be solid with wall panels and appropriate openings for doors, windows, and in-wall air-conditioning. Alternatively, the walls may be substantially openings.

A portable theater includes a plurality of individual panels assembled together to form a theater enclosure, a plurality of audience seats installed within the assembled theater enclosure, and a projection screen mounted within the assembled theater enclosure. The projection screen has a partial toroidal shaped reflective surface configured to reflect, toward the plurality of audience seats, a moving image as projected by a projector.

An enclosure component having a thickness for a building structure having an interior sheathing layer comprising paper; a first structural layer bonded to the interior sheathing layer and comprising a first generally rectangular structural panel of magnesium oxide arranged in a side-by-side relationship with a second generally rectangular structural panel of magnesium oxide to define a first structural panel seam between the first and second structural panels. There is a first binding strip of magnesium oxide positioned over the first structural panel seam and fastened to form a lap joint with the first structural panel and with the second structural panel, so as to bond together the first and second structural panes. The enclosure component includes a first strengthening layer, comprising woven fiber mat, bonded to the first structural layer; and a foam layer with first and second opposing faces comprising a first generally rectangular foam panel and a second generally rectangular foam panel arranged in a side-by-side relationship to define a foam panel seam between the first and second foam panels. The first structural panel seam is offset from the foam panel seam a select distance in a direction generally perpendicular to the thickness. The first strengthening layer is bonded to the first opposing face of the foam layer. The enclosure component also has a second structural layer comprising a third generally rectangular structural panel of magnesium oxide arranged in a side-by-side relationship with a fourth generally rectangular structural panel of magnesium oxide to define a second structural panel seam between the third and fourth structural panels. There is a second binding strip of magnesium oxide positioned over the second structural panel seam and fastened to form a lap joint with the third structural panel and with the fourth structural panel, so as to bond together the third and fourth structural panels. The second structural panel seam is offset from the foam panel seam a select distance in a direction generally perpendicular to the thickness; and the second structural layer is bonded to the second opposing face of the foam layer.

A structural frame for a building, comprising: adjacent first and second columns; at least one precast concrete floor slab having first and second corner indents located in two adjacent corners and a first elongated edge beam defined between the first and second corner indents, the first elongated edge beam being disposed between the first and second columns such that the first and second columns are received in the first and second corner indents and that the first elongated edge beam abuts the first and second columns; and a first tendon assembly extending between the first and second columns and adapted to be tensioned to compress the first elongated edge beam between the first and second columns, the first tendon assembly including at least one left cable and at least one right cable located symmetrically on either sides of a vertical center plane of the first and second columns.
