Rigid panel containment system and related methods
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.
Adjustable clip
It is described herein an adjustable rigid clip assembly comprising an anchor plate joined with a connector plate and a slide plate. The anchor plate is joined with the connector plate at a juncture having a juncture angle between the anchor plate and the connector plate in a range of between 0 and less than 180. The connector plate comprises at least one connector plate slot and at least one connector plate lock. The slide plate may comprise at least one slide plate lock. The at least one slide plate lock may be engaged with the at least one connector plate lock. The slide plate may further comprise at least one slide plate tab passing from the slide plate through the at least one connector plate slot.
PANEL MOUNT FOR SECURING A PANEL TO AN ADJOINING STRUCTURE
A panel mount securing a panel to an adjoining structure. The panel mount includes a first and a second jaw defining an elongate slot. The first jaw includes a first abutment surface facing the elongate slot. The panel mount includes a clamp having a first and a second clamp plate within the elongate slot. The first clamp plate includes a second abutment surface abutting the first abutment surface. A clamp orientation may be altered when the second abutment surface slides longitudinally relative to the first abutment surface. The second clamp plate includes a non-planar surface having a plateau facing the second jaw. A jamming device between the non-planar surface and the second jaw includes a pair of blocks and an adjustment member for adjusting a distance between the blocks. The jamming device urges the clamp against the first jaw upon increasing or decreasing the distance between the pair of blocks.
Cold rolled channel without clip
A stud bridge member used in the construction industry to span horizontally between studs is disclosed. The stud bridge member has at least one set of notches that engage with the stud and eliminate the use of a stud bridge clip and its associated costs and installation time for that stud.
A STRUCTURAL COMPONENT FOR SUPPORTING CONSTRUCTION PANELS AND A WALL COMPRISING THE SAME
A structural component (100) for supporting construction panels is disclosed comprising an I-shaped strip having two parallel strips (P1. P2) and at least one strip (S1) perpendicular to (P1) and (P2). One or both the parallel strips (P1. P2) contain a plurality of substantially flat portions (110) and void portions (120) which alternate in a first direction X along the structural component (100). The flat portions (110) are configured to support the construction panel in plane contact while the void portions (120) are configured to support the construction panels in line contact. The void portions (120) reduce the thermal transmission of the structural component (100) by providing reduced thermal bridges in the transmission path of heat and reducing the contact surface area with adjoining adjacent materials. The structural component (100) described is a drywall stud or a spacer separating two parallelly bonded construction panels.
Modular wall systems having thick and thin walls
A pre-fabricated wall system that joins wall modules of different thicknesses can include a thin wall module having a depth defined by a distance from a front face thereof to a back face thereof, a thick wall module having a depth that is greater than the depth of the thin wall module, and a vertical connection post. The vertical connection post can include a first connection interface on a first side configured to secure to the thin wall module and a second connection interface on a second side opposite the first side configured to secure to the thick wall module. The thin wall module and the thick wall module can be arranged parallel or co-planar to None another when both the thin wall module and the thick wall module are secured to the vertical connection post.

Clip and method of using the clip to mount a furring channel on an elongated load bearing member of a drywall grid system
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.
Support for Constructing a Moveable Office
A support for a moveable office wall is disclosed, the support including but not limited to a plurality of support sections, wherein the plurality of support sections are connectable to form the support, where in each of the plurality of support sections comprises an inner connecting surface for joining with another inner connecting surface of another support section.
LIGHT GAUGE STEEL JOIST BASIC STRUCTURE SYSTEM OF LIGHT PARTITION WALL AND CONSTRUCTION METHOD THEREFOR
A light gauge steel joist basic structure system of a light partition wall is disclosed, comprising: top and ground joists and vertical joists. The top and ground joists comprise a ground joist and a top joist. The vertical joist is provided between the top and ground joists by means of a first connection member. The vertical joist and the vertical joist are fixedly connected to each other by means of the first connection member and/or a second connection member. V-shaped slots are symmetrically provided on two side walls of the top and ground joists. The V-shaped slots are provided on the side walls and the bottoms of the vertical joists. A construction method for a light gauge steel joist basic structure of a light partition wall is also disclosed. The light gauge steel joist basic structure system is simple and fast to be constructed and has desirable flatness.
