A building apparatus for a residential or commercial building that includes a prefabricated wall panel and a horizontal beam mounted on a top of the prefabricated wall panel. The prefabricated wall panel includes a first concrete block, a second concrete block, and an insulation panel sandwiched between the two concrete blocks. A plurality of spaced-apart hollow tubes extend between the top side and the bottom side of the prefabricated wall panel and each tube has a flange at its a periphery. The tubes reinforce the first concrete block, and the flanges are supported on the top side of the wall. The horizontal beam is fastened to these flanges. The prefabricated wall panel further includes a U-shape beam that extends from the top side to the bottom side and is positioned at or near the left side or the right side of the prefabricated wall panel. A plurality of slings spaced apart run along a length of the U-shape beam and can provide for assembling two wall panels.

A system for wall to wall connection for precast shear walls includes a plurality of horizontal and vertical reinforcement bars configured within the precast shear wall. The system also includes a plurality of connecting tubes fixed between the spacing provided between the reinforcement bars, a plurality of openings provided between the plurality of connecting tubes, a plurality of grout tubes fixed above the plurality of openings to grout the openings after completing confection of the shear walls, a plurality of connecting bars capable of being inserted within the connecting tubes of the precast shear wall, when erected, a connecting device for inserting through the openings to grip the connecting bars, and a driving device to supply power to the drive for causing rotation of the drive/manual action and, thereby, sending the connecting bar in a translational motion from the first shear wall to the second shear wall.

A building component (1) for attachment to an uneven surface (32) such that a gap (34) exists at one or more locations between the building component (1) and the uneven surface (32), the building component (1) including mounting means (10) located at one or more positions along the building component (1), the mounting means (10) having a portion (20) adapted to be located outside the plane of the building component (1) and between the building component (1) and the uneven surface (32), wherein fastening means attaches the mounting means (10) to the uneven surface (32) to enable the building component (1) to remain substantially straight when attached to the uneven surface (32).

A frame system for a building structure includes beam members. Each beam member includes two opposed, parallel flanges. A web is interposed between the flanges. Spreader members include two opposed, parallel side flanges, a web interposed between the side flanges and two opposed end flanges bridging the side flanges at respective terminal ends of the web. The beam members and the spreader members are configured to be fastened to each other to form a frame assembly.

Embodiments are directed to a hinged perimeter barrier or wall for an industrial worksite. The perimeter barrier may be formed from a series of wall sections that include hinged panels. The wall sections may be delivered to the worksite in an unextended configuration and then hoisted (by crane) into an extended configuration. A top panel may include a set of lifting features that may be engaged to raise (unfold) the panels and form the wall section. The wall section may be secured to a structural support using a support attachment assembly. The perimeter barrier may be used to mitigate various byproducts of an industrial worksite, including noise, dust, odor, light, and so on. The panels may be formed from an acoustic dampening material, visual mitigation material, and/or various other materials as may be appropriate for a given worksite.
