A temporary, non-load bearing wall panel that when joined together with other one or more like panels, is used as a barrier (also known as a barricade wall) that keeps a construction area, vacant store, or any other undesirable element out of the reach and view of pedestrians. If required by the end user, the panels could be laminated with a visual graphic for reasons of aesthetic enhancement, advertisement of service, announcement of future business expectations, etc. A door and/or window display, dust curtains, etc. may be added to the panels as dictated by the end user.

A building system and a method for constructing a building, the system (100) comprising plurality of prefabricated elements (I), the element (1) comprising: a self-supporting insulation panel (2) comprising a rigid insulation material, —a metal frame (3), comprising a pair of sub-frames. The length of the sub-frame (7a, 7b) has a cross-section comprising an attaching arm (10) extending along the corresponding edge surface (6a, 6b), and an intruding section (11) arranged in the attaching arm (10), the intruding section (II) intruding into the insulation element (5). A box-type structure (12) is arranged distally from the intruding section (11) and comprising a closed or partly open construction. The building system further comprises a connecting element (4), having a cross-section basically a shape of a U-profile. The connecting element (4) is arranged on sub-frames (7a, 7b) of two adjacent elements (1).

The invention relates to a concrete construction of modular design, comprising at least two upright precast concrete wall elements (7, 7′, . . . , 7″′) which are arranged next to one another and, where appropriate, above one another and have two narrow sides, an upper and a lower side and a front and a rear side, wherein a first honeycomb support (1) is anchored in one of the narrow sides and the opposite narrow side has a recess or depression (8) in which a further honeycomb support (1′) is anchored in such a way that, when mounting the narrow sides of the two precast concrete wall elements (7, 7′), the two honeycomb supports (1, 1′) can be connected by connecting means (9) with the formation of the vertical joint (16).

Embodiments of the invention relate to structural panel systems, and in particular in-frame fluted panel systems. The in-frame fluted panel systems allow for improved strength and/or ductility within a reduced wall thickness by installing the fluted panels within the framing of the support members in various configurations. The in-frame fluted panel systems further allows for easier construction and lower costs than conventional systems that have fluted panels located outside of the support members.

A wall system comprising at least one wall module and at least one linking element is provided. Said wall module comprising a substantially rectangular plate (3), said rectangular plate comprising two side edges (5a, 5b), each comprising a side edge bent configuration (11), wherein said side edge bent configuration comprises a first side bend (13a), a second side bend (13b) and a third side bend (13c), wherein all three side bends (13a,b,c) are substantially 180° or 160-200° and are provided along different bending lines being parallel with the side edges (5a, 5b) of the plate. Said linking element comprises an elongated rectangular plate (33; 33′) comprising two side parts (45a, 45b: 45a′, 45b′) along a length of said plate (33; 33′) and a middle part (47; 47′) along the length of said plate between said two side parts, wherein said two side parts (45a, 45b; 45a′, 45b′) comprises locking features (43a, 43b; 201; 43a′, 43b; 43a″; 43b″; 43a′″; 43b′″), wherein the radius of the second side bend (13b) of the wall module is provided such that a side part (45a, 45b; 45a′, 45b′) of the linking element (31; 31′; 31″; 31′″; 31″) can be provided into an opening (17) between first and third bent side parts (15a, 15c) of the wall module and during the connection will be passing a third bent side part (15c) which finally will lock a side part (45a, 45b; 45a′, 45b′) of the linking element (31; 31′; 31″; 31′″; 31′″) within the side edge bent configuration (11) of the wall module (1) when a wall module and a linking element have been connected.

A structural wall panel includes an elongated shared structural framing member and one or more elongated intermediate structural framing members. An elongated top track is connected to a top end of each of the framing members. An inner sheet of suitable sheet material may be secured to the framing members so as to form an inner face of the structural wall panel, while an outer sheet of suitable sheet material may be secured to the framing members so as to form an outer face of the structural wall panel opposite the inner face. The elongated top track and inner and outer sheets are aligned on the framing members so as to form a male receiver at one lateral side of the panel and a female receiving structure along the opposite lateral side of the panel.
