A wall construction system having drywall construction combination profiled sections, and a method for constructing a wall. Standard drywall construction profiled sections using sheet metal that is approximately 0.6 mm thick allow easy manual sheathing of stud walls with building panels, but lightweight sheet metal profiled sections of this type are not suitable for bearing static loads of a house. Thicker walled lightweight steel profiled sections greatly improve stability but require more costly assembly technologies needing specialists, which increases construction costs and therefore stops drywall-constructed housing from becoming more widespread. The new combination profiled sections provide for statically stable construction systems that can nevertheless be worked and sheathed simply and easily. The present drywall construction combination profiled section includes two functional sections. A statically stable section which has splayed flanges, and a section having a planar thin-walled drywall construction contact surface, acting as a sheathing section.

It is described herein a bridge clip comprising a web, a first flange, and a second flange. The web having a web first edge substantially parallel to a web axis, and a web second edge substantially parallel to the web axis. The first flange extends from the web first edge while the second flange extends from the web second edge. Each of the flanges comprises a tab having a vertical tab having a vertical tab face in a vertical tab plane substantially perpendicular to the web axis and oriented in a vertical tab face direction substantially parallel to the web axis. The first vertical tab face direction opposes the second vertical tab face direction. It is also described that there is a positive distance value between the first vertical tab face and the second vertical tab face.

A waterproof and safety framing system is disclosed. The framing system includes a building defining an opening, a wall panel, and a framing assembly. The framing assembly includes receiver and a bottom track. The receiver is installed along an edge of the opening, with the receiver including a receiver bottom wall that defines a receiver ridge extending along a length of the receiver. The bottom track is attached to an edge of the wall panel and including a track bottom wall that defines a track ridge, with the receiver and the bottom track matingly engaging such that the bottom track overlays the receiver and the receiver ridge and the track ridge are proximal one another. The framing assembly is structured to prevent the wall panel from passing through the opening in a first direction.

A corrugated construction element (100) for drywall and ceiling construction is disclosed. The corrugated construction element (100) comprises a base profile (101) connected to at least one leg profile (102a) or (102b). The base profile (101) and/or at least one leg profile (102a) or (102b) comprise an array of angular corrugations (110) extending across their surface in a non-parallel direction to the principal axis L of the corrugated construction element (100). The disclosure also relates to an apparatus and a method for forming a corrugated profile (770).

A containment system may include four different widths of panel assemblies, at least four different types of corner assemblies, various types of door assemblies, multiple types of three-way corners or T intersections, multiple types of exhaust panel assemblies, multiple types of wall seal assemblies, and other components that form a modular system capable of adapting to various configurations using a minimal number of fasteners, brackets, and/or clamps. Each panel assembly includes a lower assembly, an upper assembly slideably attached to the lower assembly, at least one adjustment mechanism that interfaces with both the lower assembly and the upper assembly, and a sealing member extending between the upper assembly and the lower assembly.

Disclosed herein is one embodiment of a connection system that includes at least one support shaft, a hollow connector sleeve, and an attachment. The hollow connector sleeve includes an interior surface circumscribing a portion of the at least one support shaft and at least one exterior mounting panel that has at least one interlockable component. The attachment may include at least one corresponding interlockable component that is detachably coupleable to the at least one interlockable component.

A weather resistant temporary wall system and method useful for forming a temporary barrier during building construction or renovation includes a series of modular wall panels that may be removably fit together in the size needed. The wall panels have complimentary shaped edge profiles that form a protective barrier against water penetration. The wall panels may be assembled on site in vertically stacked relationship between a pair of support posts which extend from floor to ceiling. The side edges of the wall panels have edge profiles that are complimentary in shape to the side edges of the support posts such that the panels may be removably attached to the support posts. The wall panels may further include a string reinforced polyethylene material for increased strength.

A structural column includes a column body having a length L.sub.c and a cross-section having a depth d that is greater than a width b.sub.c, with the column body having two end portions at ends of the length of the column body, a first end cap positioned at the first end portion of the column body where the first end cap has a first width greater than the width b.sub.c of the column body and has a first central line of the first width, and a second end cap positioned at the second end portion of the column body where the second end cap has a second width greater than the width b.sub.c of the column body and has a second central line of the second width. Additionally, the first central line and the second central line are off-center from a central line of the width of the column body.

Additionally, the first central line and the second central line are off-center from a central line of the width of the column body.

Disclosed is a clip and method of mounting a furring channel to a load bearing member of a drywall grid system. The load bearing member includes an elongated web having an enlarged upper portion and a lower portion from which a pair of coplanar flanges projecting outward. The clip includes a bottom wall and an end wall from which two hanger hooks project upward. Each hanger hook includes a folded over portion configured to snap-fit and entrap a portion of the enlarged upper portion of the load bearing member, with the bottom wall being disposed on one of flanges of the load bearing member. A second clip is mounted on the load bearing member in a similar manner so that its bottom wall is disposed on the other of the flanges of the load bearing member, and with the hanger hooks of the two clips being interposed. A respective furring channel is mounted on each of the clip to be supported thereby.
