An insulation system for coupling to a building substrate comprising a plurality of insulation panels, bracket members and splice members. Each insulation panel includes a longitudinal slot. Each bracket member is formed from a polymer and includes an elongated body having a body wall, a first end wall and a second end wall. Upper and lower ribs extend from the body wall and are structurally configured to extend into the longitudinal slot of each of the plurality of insulation panels, and to elastically deform the longitudinal slot so as to effectively seal along a length thereof, defining a vapor barrier. A similar structure is on each splice member. The bracket members are positioned in a spaced apart relationship with insulation panels therebetween. The upper and lower ribs extend into corresponding ones of the longitudinal slots of the insulation panels, with splice members extending between adjacent adjacently abutting insulation panels.

A system for supporting exterior panels on a substrate of a building structure. The system has a plurality of polymeric bracket members, and each of the bracket members have at least one anchor section, at least one web section and at least one support section. The polymeric bracket members provide a thermal break from the exterior panel to the substrate of the building structure. A plurality of exterior cladding units are held in place by the bracket members. A plurality of vents are disposed between the panels and the exterior panels, and a plurality of vents are also disposed between the panels and the substrate, thereby forming a ventilation system.

In variants, the method for subjective property scoring can include determining an objective score for a subjective characteristic of a property using a model trained using subjective labels for a set of training properties. In examples, the model can be trained on subjective property rankings, determined using the subjective labels, for the set of training properties.

A wall structure having an inner wall, a bracket member, a non-combustible board, and an outer cladding coupled together and retaining insulation between the inner wall and the outer cladding. The non-combustible board is positioned between the bracket member and the outer cladding.

An integrated joint sealing system that is incorporated into the edges of a sheathing panel, which also may have a factory bonded weather resistive barrier. The edges of each panel are configured as a shiplap joint, or similarly functioning joint, that is present as either an overlap or underlap on each of the four panel edges. The arrangement of the joints are such that one edge will have an overlap and the opposite edge will have an underlap. A flexible gasket material (or materials) is factory applied to one or both sides (underlap and/or overlap) of the shiplap joint. This flexible gasket material, when overlapped with adjacent shiplap panels, provides a weather resistive seal to limit both water and air penetration.

A bracket assembly comprising an elongated bracket member and an end wall support member. The elongated bracket member has a body wall having an inner end and an outer end. A first end wall extends from the inner end of the body wall and a second end wall extends from the outer end. The end wall support member is attached to each of the first end wall and the second end wall. The bracket member further comprises a plurality of fibers within a resin matrix. The plurality of fibers includes at least one fiber fabric extending from the first end wall to the second end wall.

Support brackets for supporting panels, architectural panel systems, and methods of installing architectural panels on support structures. Support brackets can include opposite sides, four quadrants, through holes containing studs extending from one side of the plate, and a center hole. Architectural panel systems can include support brackets attaching architectural panels to a support structure, first fasteners attaching the support brackets to the architectural panels, and second fasteners attaching the support brackets to the support structure. Methods of installing an architectural panel system can include attaching architectural panels to support brackets with first fasteners, positioning the support brackets on a support structure, and attaching the support brackets to the support structure with second fasteners, for example, that extend through the support brackets. Architectural panels can include interior cutouts that pass sunlight to form aesthetic patterns of sunlight and shade in an occupied space.

Support brackets for supporting panels, architectural panel systems, and methods of installing architectural panels on support structures. Support brackets can include a plate with opposite sides, four quadrants, through holes containing parallel studs extending from one side of the plate, and an elongated plate hole. Architectural panel systems can include support brackets attaching architectural panels to a support structure, first fasteners attaching the support brackets to the architectural panels, and second fasteners attaching the support brackets to the support structure. Methods of installing an architectural panel system can include attaching architectural panels to support brackets with first fasteners, positioning the support brackets on a support structure, and attaching the support brackets to the support structure with second fasteners, for example, that extend through the support brackets.
