Customizable Transportable Structures and Components Therefor
A wall component and other components for a building structure wherein the wall component has a spanning beam spanning the length of the wall component, one or more structural column assemblies positioned between the spanning beam and a floor plate which are structured to carry structural weights and loads received from the spanning beam. The structural column assemblies are separated by a longitudinal distance so as to define an intercolumnar region which is greater than a width of a member selected from the group consisting of a door assembly and a window assembly, and there is an exterior panel fastened between the first and second structural column assemblies that defines a generally continuous and uninterrupted planar surface over the intercolumnar region.
Enclosure Component Perimeter Structures
An enclosure member for a building structure comprising a planar laminate having a first facing layer; a layer of foam having a first face and a second opposing face; and a second facing layer; where the first facing layer is fastened to the first face of the layer of foam, and the second facing layer is fastened to the second opposing face of the layer of foam. An edge of the enclosure is provided with a perimeter structure that can perform one or more of a sealing function, an edge reinforcement function and a pivotable joining function with another enclosure, in accordance with the particular embodiment.
Equipment and Methods for Erecting a Transportable Foldable Building Structure
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.
Foldable Building Structures with Utility Channels and Laminate Enclosures
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.
Shipping Container Expansion Insert
An expansion insert for converting an ISO shipping container into a housing unit is provided, the insert having a compacted form reversibly convertible to a expanded form. The insert has a frame assembly torsionally hinged to a roof assembly and a floor assembly. Two pivot walls and a sidewall are also built into the insert. The insert may be compacted for shipping, expanded after insertion into an ISO container, and compacted again on the ISO container.
PORTABLE, MODULAR EQUIPMENT FOR INSTALLATION OF A MULTI-SPORTS AND/OR MULTI-USE AREA AND METHOD OF INSTALLING A MULTI-SPORTS AND/OR MULTI-USE AREA
This invention deals with portable modular equipment for area assembly multisport and/or multipurpose and method of setting up multisport area and/or multipurpose, ideal for sports such as soccer, volleyball, basketball, handball or other sports, as well as physical, educational and recreational activities that primarily aim at the production of knowledge related to teaching/learning/leisure; the modular equipment (10) is completely portable and conformed by one, preferably, two modules (20), each of them to the format preferential use of a container (21) and able to pack a set of parts structural (CP) that correspond to half of a multisport/multipurpose area (AP); said set of pieces (CP) is basically composed of a fencing bottom link (30A), two side fences (30B), at least four modular bleachers (40), at least one access structure (30C), accessories goal posts (60), volleyball nets (61) or others, at least one self-contained set for generating lighting (70) and Wi-Fi signal, synthetic grass or modular floor coverings (GS), as well as components of mounting type connectors, screws and others.
WINDOW FOR EXPANDABLE SHELTER
An expandable shelter includes a ceiling panel that unfolds from a top, a floor panel that unfolds from a bottom, a flexible sidewall having a first end coupled to the ceiling panel and a second end coupled to the floor panel. The flexible sidewall further includes a window disposed in the sidewall, and a shade to cover the window. The shade is configured to transition between a closed state and an open state. A first line and a second line couple to the shade, extend between an interior of the expandable shelter and an exterior of the expandable shelter, and are usable to transition the shade between the closed state and the open state.
