Connectors comprise a hollow or extruded body, studs integrated structural reinforcement, and receiving sockets for fastening to adjacent connectors. Connectors are placed at one or more locations on prefabricated panels to couple pre-fabricated panels together in the construction of a building. Connectors may anchor structural reinforcement internal to each panel to assist in distributing forces through the structure of the building. A reinforcing mesh may at least partially wrap around the structural reinforcement of a panel.

A system and method for manufacturing, assembling, and installing an extruded aluminum wall panel frame by manufacturing an extrusion profile that comprises a stud, a sole plate, and a sill plate and other components used to configure the extrusion profile into a frame either fully or partially assembled prior to transport and installation at the building site where the frame may be installed as a single-level structure or multi-level structure of varying lengths, widths, and floorplans.

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).

A structural assembly, preferably for creation of a firewall, is constructed using anchors attached to at least a first structure and a concrete wall. Preferably, the concrete wall is also attached to a second structure as well. The body of the anchors is fabricated from a material that fails at a temperature in excess of 1,000° F. A fastening member, preferably a grommet assembly, is positioned in an elongate slot for connecting the first face to the first structure and for sliding engagement within the elongate slot in response to relative movement of the first structure and/or the second structure and the attached concrete wall.

A building element, comprising a profile and a panel, characterized in that the profile and the panel are mutually coupled by means of a deformation of the panel inside the profile. The profile preferably comprises a housing with an inner wall and an internal space defined within the inner wall and at least one access opening in the inner wall providing access to the inner space, wherein in the inner space at least a part of a form element is arranged, which form element is coupled to the inner wall on a side remote from the access opening, and wherein a thickness of the form element near the coupling to the inner wall is smaller than at a position between the coupling to the inner wall and the access opening.

The present invention provides an anchor assembly for attaching a first structure to a second structure. The anchor assembly has a body having a first face and a second face. The first face is transverse to the second face and has an elongate slot. The second face has a through hole. The body is fabricated from a material that fails at a temperature in excess of 1,000° F. A fastening member is positioned in the elongate slot for connecting the first face to the first structure and for sliding engagement with the elongate slot in response to relative movement of the first structure and the second structure.

A wall connection system is disclosed, which includes a horizontal building frame component with a first vertical face that has a first slot. The system further includes a prefabricated wall structure with a plurality of parallel studs and an elongate member connect to each stud. The elongate member has a second vertical face with a second slot and is parallel to the first vertical face. The long axis of the first slot is perpendicular to the long axis of the second slot. A fastener assembly connects the horizontal building frame component to the wall structure, through the slots.

In one aspect, a wall panel is provided that includes a cross laminated timber panel, a first extrusion, and a second extrusion. The cross laminated timber panel includes a top side, a bottom side, a first side, and a second side. The panel also includes a notch in the bottom side and a T-flange on the top side. A wall system is provided comprising a plurality of wall panels. A method of installing the wall panel system is also provided.

A modular building construction system comprising a plurality of panels, each panel having two spaced apart sheets; an insulating core portion positioned between said spaced apart sheets, wherein edge portions of the spaced apart sheets define a hollow cavity, the cavity extending along peripheral portions of the panel wherein the panel comprises a length (l) and a height (h) wherein top and bottom channel members face outwardly and extend along the length (l) of the panel and are positioned in respective hollow cavities along in-use top and bottom peripheral portions of the panel respectively; and wherein first and second opposite side channels face outwardly and extend along the height (h) of the panel and are positioned in respective hollow cavities along each of the lateral peripheral portions of the panel respectively and wherein during use the channel members are adapted to be interconnected with one or more building elements positioned along said peripheral portions.

Modular building methods and systems using precision machined modular panels. Standard modular panels are used for constructing walls, floor, and roof, with transitions from wall to roof and wall to floor provided by special transition panels. The standard panels include a channel formed configured to receive a flange of a C-channel member. The present method progresses by installation of a foam panel (or stack or row of such panels), followed by installation of a C-channel member, with the flange of such member engaged in the panels, followed by installation of an adjacent row or stack of panels, before installation of the next, adjacent C-channel member. Such alternating placement of panels and frame members eliminates the need for a tape measure, the need for any independent frame for the building, and ensures the walls, floor, and roof are square and plumb, as the precision machined panels ensure these requirements are met.
