Modular building system
A modular building system, includes a modular building assembly, including a base mounting structure with first and second base angle brackets; a left receiving wall assembly, including a left primary wall assembly, and left front and left rear corner brackets; a right primary wall assembly, and right front and right rear corner brackets; and front and rear wall assemblies; and a platform with legs; such that the modular building assembly is positionable on a top surface of the platform.
Relating to connection of structural components to panels
There is disclosed a method of forming a connection between a structural component and a panel, the panel comprising a substrate and a load-resistant covering over either or each side of the substrate, the method comprising securing a connector to the component and panel such that the connector engages at least one said covering and the component so as to direct, to the covering(s) engaged thereby, loading exerted by the component.
Portable multiuser sauna
A portable multiuser sauna includes an enclosure configured as a truncated, regular icosahedron with ten sidewall triangular structural panels and five rooftop triangular structural panels, wherein each sidewall triangular structural panel is compressively coupled to at least two adjacent triangular structural panels.
COMPOSITE PANELIZED BUILDING SYSTEM AND METHOD
Systems and methods are described herein for a panelized building assembly. In one example, an assembly may include one or more of a first composite planar panel, and second composite planar panel, and a planar joining element. The first and second planar panels may include a core material sandwiched between two fiber-reinforced skin elements. Each of the panels may include a first block of fiber-reinforced material coupled to at least one of the skin elements, which may define two slots for receiving the planar joining element. In some cases, the planar joining element, when placed within the slots of two panels to be joined, may transfer a load between the fiber-reinforced material of the two panels. The resulting joint may form a water-tight and fire-retardant seal.
SUB-DERMAL JOINTING FOR COMPOSITE PANELIZED BUILDING SYSTEM AND METHOD
Systems and methods are described herein for a panelized building assembly comprising a double skeleton of planar connectors, positioned parallel to and behind the inner and outer building surfaces of panels to be connected. The planar elements may be folded symmetrically about the bisected angle between adjacent surfaces so as to form a coherent and continuous double layer that can, in some cases, offers structural, fire, acoustical and waterproofing performance consistently between various panel. The connectors may extend into the mass of a block of material that forms a continuous edge around the perimeter of the panels, which is bonded continuously to the fiber-reinforced skin of the panel and to the core material that the inner and outer fiber reinforced skins are also continuously bonded to.
Modular building system
A modular building system, includes a modular building assembly, including a base mounting structure with first and second base angle brackets; a left receiving wall assembly, including a left primary wall assembly, and left front and left rear corner brackets; a right primary wall assembly, and right front and right rear corner brackets; and front and rear wall assemblies; and a platform with legs; such that the modular building assembly is positionable on a top surface of the platform.
PRE-MANUFACTURED FLOOR-CEILING DRAG ANCHOR FOR A MULTI-STORY BUILDING HAVING LOAD BEARING WALLS
Floor-ceiling drag anchors are provided for a building that includes load bearing walls that are able to withstand vertical loads and lateral loads. The building may be a low-rise building or a mid-rise building. The floor-ceiling drag anchors, in fastened cooperation with floor-ceiling panels, load bearing walls, and floor-ceiling corridor panels, transmit forces, in particular drag forces, across longitudinal and lateral directions of the building.
Magnetic attraction connection structure
A magnetic attraction connection structure includes a main body. The main body has a peripheral edge on which at least one connection surface is defined. The main body is provided with at least one movement space in an interior of the peripheral edge at one side of the connection surface. The movement space is provided with a magnet arranged in an interior thereof. The movement space is of a size that is sufficient to allow the magnet to move in a direction toward the connection surface or to rotate by an angle. In use, the connection surface of the main body is placed in direct contact with another main body at the location corresponding to the magnets, such that the magnets arranged in the two movement spaces automatically move or rotate due to magnetic attraction of opposite magnetic polarities, so as to securely fix the main bodies together.
Modular partition and fabrication thereof
A modular device adapted for subdividing room space, the modular device comprising: a panel comprising a corrugated portion positioned between a first planar surface and a second planar surface of the panel, wherein the peaks of the corrugated portion are in engagement with the first planar surface, wherein the troughs of the corrugated portion are in engagement with the second planar surface; the first planar surface and the second planar surface each having a first end and a second end; wherein the first and second ends of the first planar surface are respectively opposite relatively to the first and second ends of the second planar surface; the second planar surface is parallel to the first planar surface; wherein the corrugations are is parallel to the vertical axis of the panel; a concave female portion positioned along the vertical axis in the panel, wherein the concave female portion is formed from at least: the first end of the first planar surface, the first end of the second planar surface, and a curved portion from the corrugated portion; a convex male portion positioned along the vertical axis of the panel, wherein the convex male portion is positioned outside of the second end of the first planar surface and the second end of the second planar surface; wherein to extend the length of the panel, the convex male portion of a first panel is adapted to engage with the concave female portion of a second panel.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR COUPLING COMPOSITE PANELS
A system and a method for securing a first composite panel to a second composite panel include a latch assembly having one or more latches. The latch assembly is configured to be secured to one of the first composite panel or the second composite panel. One or more strikes are configured to retain at least a portion of the one or more latches. The one or more strikes are configured to be secured to the other of the first composite panel or the second composite panel.
