A finishing arrangement for an exterior wall of a building includes: a plurality of exterior finishing panels; and at least one support member configured to support at least a portion of the weight of the exterior finishing panels. Each exterior finishing panel includes: a foam body having an interior-facing surface and an exterior-facing surface, the interior-facing surface having a plurality of pedestals formed therein, the pedestals defining a plurality of drainage channels therebetween, the exterior-facing surface being opposite the interior-facing surface and having a plurality of slots formed therein; and a plurality of structural elements, each structural element being accommodated in a respective slot, each structural element having a fastening surface for fastening a finishing material.

Apparatuses for mounting and supporting insulation

A hanger apparatus is provided for attaching and securing building materials to a structure, such as attaching fibrous insulation to a wall or a cladding system on a building. The hanger includes a selectively deployable securing element such as a bendable barb to impale the building material and to secure the impaled building material to the hanger. The hanger may include a sealing fastener to secure the apparatus to the structure and to form a air, vapor, or weather seal between the fastener, hanger apparatus, and structure. The hanger is configurable for use with a single securing element or may be interlocked with additional hangers to create a chain of securing elements to secure a large portion of building material to a large section of a building. The hanger may include relief notches or apertures to reduce the force required to bend portions of the apparatus.

PROCESS FOR ASSEMBLING A UNITIZED PANEL FOR USE WITHIN AN EXTERIOR DYNAMIC CURTAIN WALL ASSEMBLY

A box assembly includes a box, a door, an opener, and an insulation material. The box is configured to be installed on a curtain wall. The door encloses an interior space of the box. The opener is configured to open the door. The insulation material is in a compressed state in the interior space when the door is closed. The insulation material is configured to transition to an uncompressed state when the opener opens the door. When the door is opened, the insulation material at least partially extends from the interior space into a safing slot adjacent the curtain wall when the box is in an installed state and the door is opened.

Thermal shell, in particular for a building

The present invention relates to a thermal shell for a building, apt to constitute a multi-layer system formed by three integral elements having, respectively, from the outside towards the inside: an external peripheral wall/casing with the function of thermal insulating wall; an interspace filled with air to be conditioned; an internal wall/casing with the function of heat-radiating wall/casing; comprising: a covering structure (10) positioned around the building (1), or part of said building (1), the covering structure (10) comprising, proceeding from the outside towards the inside of the building (1): a coating (11), an insulating layer (16) and an interspace (12); the interspace (12) containing air and forming a closed and isolated room with respect to the surrounding environment; means (13) of thermal conditioning of the air contained in the interspace, so that the shell defines an internal wall/casing.

Roofing and Wall Systems and Batten-Equipped, Foil-Laminated, Internally Drainable Insulation Panels for Same
20210131094 · 2021-05-06 ·

Insulation panels for wall construction and roofing installation are characterized by inlaid battens in outer faces thereof by which multiple layers of insulation can be installed without thermal bridging. Second and any subsequent layers are each fastened only to the battens of the immediately underlying layer, without fully penetrating therethrough to the roof deck, building wrap or other substrate. Laminated facers of perforated character allow migration of moisture to and from a foam core of the panel, while internal channels and internal slots beneath the facer enable drainage/drying of excess moisture without material degradation of the inlaid battens. Additional drainage space within each layer is provided at inter-panel connections, where tongue and groove connections are configured to leave such drainage space open between the tongue and groove.
