In one implementation, a metal deck is provided that includes one or more deck components formed in a contiguous metal sheet. Each of the deck components includes one or more folded ribs formed along the length of the metal deck. Each of the one or more folded ribs are configured such that one or more trusses of a building may fit between the one or more folded ribs. The metal deck may be used to complete the structural diaphragm without using concrete.

A truss includes a plurality of truss members, each truss member formed from a unitary folded blank of sheet metal to create a main panel, and proximal and distal flanges and a horizontal panel each extending perpendicularly from the main panel, the proximal flange of a first truss member is connected to the distal flange of a second truss member to form a truss. In one embodiment employing trusses formed of folded sheet metal, a plurality of interconnected truss modules, each truss module including a plurality of truss members, forms a plurality of oppositely extending horizontal flanges that collectively present the top and bottom surfaces of a cantilevered canopy.

An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a metal architectured plate with senses of tactile warmth and elasticity. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, there is an effect that it is possible to provide a metal architectured plate with senses of tactile warmth and elasticity which is configured by stacking sheet-like metal architectured materials having micro-thickness with senses of tactile warmth and elasticity, the metal architectured materials including base microchannels formed with regular intervals; and microchannels with senses of tactile warmth and elasticity formed to protrude between the base microchannels, such that the base microchannels and the microchannels with senses of tactile warmth and elasticity form channels with senses of tactile warmth and elasticity, which are spaces for allowing control of thermal conductivity and an elastic modulus, thereby imparting human-friendly senses of tactile warmth and elasticity.

In one aspect, composite construction materials are described herein. In some embodiments, a composite construction panel comprises a substrate layer, a cover layer separated from the substrate layer by one or more spacers, and at least one mat disposed between the substrate layer and the cover layer, wherein the mat comprises at least one phase change material disposed in at least one phase change region.
