A barrier wall including a plurality of sections positioned in immediate juxtaposition to each other to form a substantially continuous barrier wall. Each section includes a foundation below ground level, a base wall carried by the foundation, a framework carried by the base wall, and a plurality of solar panel assemblies movably carried by the framework.

The present invention is directed to a foam-injected slat and a method of manufacturing thereof used in building fencing, privacy screens, pergolas, louvers, wall claddings, and other similar types of structures. Use of foam-injected slats in the aforementioned structures provides noise reduction, heat insulation, and vibration absorption. In addition, they are lightweight, strong, durable in heavy weather conditions, environmentally friendly, easy to install, and cost effective. Lastly, the manufacturing process enables the forming of a special locking mechanism that further strengthens the foam-injected slats.

A fence having a frame for receiving fence panels and the fence panels that are preferably received in the frame vertically or horizontally. The fence panel has a reinforcing structure surrounded by panel structure for preventing bowing due to differential heating over the panel. The reinforcing structure may have longitudinal members separated by cross-members for forming channels, and may have external tab portions to facilitate connection with the panel structure. The panel structure may define a tongue and groove for matingly fitting with adjacent panels. The width of the reinforcing structure, and panel structure material on either side of the reinforcing structure preferably define equal thicknesses.

A kit for articulated connection between dividing panels having a pair of male pieces with a coupling protrusion; and a pair of female pieces with a coupling hole, the protrusions engage the holes when relative vertical movement between the pair of male and female pieces is produced when fixed to the panels. One of the first or second pair of pieces is configured with a depression such that the coupling protrusion or the coupling hole is arranged in the groove. The kit includes an auxiliary piece with a retaining pin actuatable with a lever and with an angled end, fixable to the lateral wing of one of the male pieces, the pin remaining parallel to the lateral wing and outside the panel. Regulated by the lever, the angled retaining end of the pin can be arranged in at least two positions: a release position and a locking position.

A fence panel can include a plurality of modular fence panel components that can be assembled modularly to form the fence panel. The fence panel components can include a system of keys and keyways that allow the components to interlock with one another when the fence panel is assembled to lock the components to one another to simplify the assembly process and to minimize the number of mechanical fasteners needed to assemble the fence panel.

A fence panel for attachment to an existing fence structure that includes: a front surface; a top border along the front surface; a first side border; a second side border on each respective side of the front surface; and a top sleeve extending horizontally from the top border. A plurality of bolts is preferably adapted to attach the fence panel onto an existing fence structure. The front surface includes a brick facade.

A safety barrier is formed of framing, including a guard rail that defines the infill below the rail without the use of pickets. The infill is covered with mesh screen, which may be made of nylon which has greater tensile strength than conventional fiberglass. The mesh screen is held to the framing by an extruded base. The base has a central channel between two flat spline grooves. Flat splines hold mesh screen in their respective grooves more securely than conventional friction-based channel splines. A metal plate is positioned in the central channel to enables screws that secure the base to be tightened to hold it to the framing better. The elimination of pickets in the infill leaves the view unobstructed and allows other treatments of that portion of a deck or porch that are more aesthetically pleasing without compromising safety.

A modular fence system is disposable into a freestanding enclosure on a supporting surface without the use of any tools and includes a fence panel assembly having a plurality of fence panels each having a frame with a plurality of fence slats mounted therein. A plurality of fence support units each have a frame interface and a frame support. Each frame interface is disposable between adjacent fence panels and each frame support is positionable into a freestanding relation with the supporting surface. A plurality of toggle clamps are disposable between a disengaged configuration for positioning around portions of adjacent fence panels and/or interfaces disposed thereinbetween, and a releasably secure engaged configuration to maintain the frames of adjacent ones of the plurality of fence panels and the frame interface operably disposed thereinbetween in an interconnected freestanding configuration.
