A panelized building system and method of construction utilizing a rigid framing combined with foam insulation is disclosed. The system may include a metal roof panel, at least one metal wall panel, a floor panel, at least one metal corner post and at least one foundational component. A single layer of foam insulation encapsulates partially fills a rigid framing and may be molded against a non-stick surface or bonded to an exterior building material. In either case, a single monolithic piece is formed. A utility cavity may be formed interior to the single layer of foam insulation. The exterior face may be textured, undulated, radiused, or shaped in myriad ways.

One embodiment provides a pre fabricated kit for assembling a supporting framework comprising a plurality of customized beams or supports with a connection openings/hole patterns selected from a set of connection hole patterns and using a plurality of generic connectors which fit on the interior of the customized beams or supports.

An elongate profile having a first portion and a second portion, the first and second portions being joined together at a first joining portion, the first and second portions being non collinear, the joining portion comprising an array of raised or rebated formations, each formation extending across the joining portion in a direction which is non-parallel to the principal axis of the profile and flat lands being provided between successive formations in an array and the pitch between successive formations in an array being from 2 to 20 times, for example from 5 to 15 times, the thickness of the flatlands.

A metallic extruded profile has two parallel skins interconnected by a set of at least two webs running between extrusion edges of the profile and snap-fit features on joining edges permitting two instances of the profile to snap fit together along the joining edges, where a first web that is closest to snap-fit features of a first joining edge, is a curved web viewed from the extrusion edges. The curvature allows for both the curved web and skins to participate in snap-fit deformation, allowing for the deformation to be distributed over a large area, for a stiffer snap fit, and reduced plastic deformation.

A shallow single plate cold roll formed steel tub girder member is fabricated from unheated steel plate material by a cold roll-forming process which eliminates longitudinal welds and induces camber in the tub girder member.

An elongate profile (1) having a first portion (2) and a second portion (3), the first and second portions (2, 3) being joined together at a first joining portion (JP1), the first and second portions (2, 3) being non collinear, the joining portion (JP1) comprising an array of raised or rebated formations (10a), each formation extending across the joining portion (JP1) in a direction which is non-parallel to the principal axis of the profile and flat lands being provided between successive formations in an array (10A) and the pitch (P) between successive formations in an array being from 2 to 20 times, for example from 5 to 15 times, the thickness (G) of the flatlands.

A Three-Dimensional Positioning and Holding Modular System for office and industrial work stations including embodiments of multi-rail beams and rail-arm-leg modules. The embodiments have tubes, bars, or channels arranged and connected in ways that provide improved ability to transmit torque along a long axis of the multi-rail beam while providing improved resistance to twisting under the forces of the torque.

Embodiments disclosed herein relate to a beam-to-column connection systems for a moment-resisting frame as well as moment-resisting frames that include such connection systems.

The invention relates to a profile for arranging a component for a drywall construction, in particular a profile for a preferably ceiling-side fastening of a drywall, preferably a profile for a drywall comprising a panelled stud frame. Furthermore, the invention relates to a construction element set and to a drywall having such a profile. The invention provides a profile of the aforementioned generic type that can accommodate a possible relative movement of components of a drywall construction in an improved manner. This object is achieved according to the invention in that the profile has, in its cross section, substantially a U shape which comprises a web and two adjoining flanges, wherein the flanges are each designed to be resilient to the same degree and/or in the same manner in the direction which is substantially orthogonal to the web surface.

Modular system for creating a structure, in particular a building component, comprising at least one post profile (2), at least one ceiling profile (3) and at least one floor profile (4) for a basic framework of a first modular unit (50, 50, 50, 50), at least one further post profile (2), at least one further ceiling profile (3) and at least one further floor profile (4) for a basic framework of a second modular unit (50, 50, 50, 50), and a module connector (38) for connecting the first and the second modular unit (50, 50, 50, 50), wherein the post profile (2) has a first pin holding fixture (55) and the further post profile (2) has a second pin holding fixture (55), wherein the module connector (38) has a first connecting pin (39) for insertion into the first pin holding fixture (55) and a second connecting pin (40) for insertion into the second pin holding fixture (55), and wherein the module connector (38) has a supporting element (41) on which the first and second connecting pins (39, 40) are arranged.
