A system for dry execution of a finishing material according to one aspect of the present invention can comprise an angled rod fixed to the outer wall of the building, a fixing bracket in which both ends are fixed and installed to the angled rod, an insulation material provided on one side of the fixing bracket to exert insulation and water blocking performance, and a brick which is provided on the other side of the fixing bracket, and in which an insertion groove is formed on one side that faces with the fixing bracket to be combined in a way to insert to the fixing bracket, wherein the fixing bracket comprises an insertion clip which is inserted to the insertion groove to allow the brick to combine with the fixing bracket, and an elastic clip which is provided on the left and right sides of the insertion clip respectively to provide elastic force that pushes in a direction of the other side of the brick with the insertion clip inserted to the insertion groove.

A non-decorative industrial grade self-adhesive tile comprised of an abrasion-resistant alumina ceramic tile, a silane coupling agent and double-sided (double-coated) acrylic foam super high bonding tape with release liner. The abrasion-resistant alumina ceramic tile may be comprised of aluminum oxide, crystalline silica (amorphous) and magnesium oxide. The silane coupling agent may be comprised of materials selected from the group of isopropyl alcohol, water and glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane. The double-sided (double-coated) acrylic foam super high bonding tape is comprised a foam carrier and an acrylic adhesive.

A prefabricated tile strip includes a backing board, a tile region having plural tiles and grout. The grout can be composed of a resin/polymer-based grout that allows for superior water resistance, stain resistance, crack resistance and is transportable without breaking. The strip includes an edge region or flange on either side of the tiles to allow for simple screw in and glue on assembly, not even a wall is necessary, the strip can be attached directly to the studs. A step over/under water resistant edges can go directly onto a bathtub or shower ledge or onto the wet area of a tile floor (not separate ledge), allowing it to go straight down to the bottom of a shower floor, or It can step right over a thin plastic flange on a tub or shower base.

A wall panel may have a rigid layer, a first insulation layer made from a two-part rigid urethane pour foam, and a second insulation layer made from a phase change material. The first insulation layer maybe chemically bonded to the rigid layer and may also be bonded to the phase change layer. The first insulation layer may be positioned between the second insulation layer and the rigid layer. The rigid layer may be a finished surface or a veneer layer may be applied to the rigid layer.

A support assembly for mounting masonry veneer to supporting wall structure has a first shelf angle, a second shelf angle, and a first shelf angle mounting bracket. Each shelf angle mounting bracket has an upwardly extending back that mounts to the supporting wall structure, and a web extending forwardly away from the wall structure. The web has at least a first shelf angle mounting seats formed in a lower region thereof that hangs downwardly of a vertical load shear transfer connection. A brace is mounted to the bracket. The brace underhangs the cantilevered supporting structure, and provides a moment reaction. The brace has a non-intrusive interface with the supporting structure. That interface may be in compression and the brace may act as a strut. The brace may be thermally isolated from the bracket. The brace may fit within the space envelope of a stud wall.

A method of manufacturing building-wall flexible cladding (12) for a wall of a building so that a cladding outer surface of the building-wall flexible cladding (12) matches or substantially matches a textured wall surface of the wall of the building. This is first achieved by selecting the wall to be modelled (S101) and forming an impression of the wall (S102). An absorbent flexible substrate (18) is provided (S103), and a wet mixture (24) created (S105) and applied to the substrate (18, S106) to form one or more tiles (24a). The wet mixture (24) is textured by applying the impression so that the cladding outer surface corresponds or substantially corresponds to the said textured wall surface (S108). Finally, the textured wet mixture is cured (S109).

Embodiments are generally directed to modular wall systems. Such modular wall systems include a modular frame, one or more tiles attached to the modular frame, a decorative panel positioned between at least one of the tiles and an inter-connected conductive plate, and conductive plates that are configured to hold an electrical potential and detect an electrical capacitance through the decorative panel at an identified position on the conductive plate when touched. In another embodiment, a modular wall system includes a modular frame, tiles attached to the modular frame, conductive plates that have pockets formed therein, and an inductive plate disposed in the pocket of the conductive plate. As such, the inductive plate provides a hidden switching location that, when activated, triggers transmission of a signal to a specified destination.

A lining method includes fixing a backing strip in a frame shape to a concrete surface of already-placed concrete so that the backing strip protrudes from the concrete surface; disposing a filler inside a frame of the backing strip; making edges of a plurality of lining plates butt against each other at a position of the backing strip to cover the backing strip and the concrete surface; and joining the edges of the lining plates by seal welding.

The present disclosure relates generally to cladding, for example, suitable for use covering the exterior surface of a building. The present disclosure relates more particularly to a siding panel including a light source. The siding panel includes a panel body having a length extending from a first end to a second end, a width extending from a first edge to a second edge, a front face, and a rear face. A first lock extends along the first edge of the panel body and a second lock extending along the second edge of the panel body. A fastening strip is coupled to the first lock. A light source extending along the length of the panel body is secured to the panel body so as to provide light from the front face of the panel body.

Termination girts, systems incorporating termination girts, and methods of using termination girts are disclosed. The termination girts are configured to abut adjacent building systems such as windows, doors, interconnected walls and the like with a clearance close to zero, which allows exterior cladding on a structure to be hung in a seamless, smooth design without added gaps or reveals. In some embodiments, the termination girts are used, either with other types of girts or exclusively, to produce a continuous horizontal or vertical rail system on the exterior of a structure to support cladding covering the structure and, optionally, insulation mounted on the exterior of the structure. The termination girts have a high mechanical strength, are easily manufactured, allow for water drainage and air circulation, can be mounted in both horizontal and vertical orientations, and are especially useful near the intersection of perpendicular surfaces.
