Thermal break system for wall panels secured to an existing wall
A thermal break system for securing wall panels to an existing wall includes a furring member connected between the existing wall and the wall panels, the furring member including at two foot walls adapted to be connected to the existing wall, at least one spacing wall having one end connected to the foot walls and extending in a direction transverse to the at least one foot wall and the existing wall, and a connection wall connected to an opposite end of the at least one spacing wall and extending in a direction transverse to the at least one spacing wall for connection either directly to adjacent wall panels or indirectly to adjacent wall panels through at least one intermediary member; and a thermal insulation cover positioned at least between the at least one foot wall and the existing wall.
FACADE STRUCTURE
A slip brick arrangement for use in a façade cladding system comprises a slip brick and a spacer element (20c). The slip brick comprises at least one rail-engaging groove to engage with a brick-retaining rail to be provided. The spacer element (20c) comprises a main spacer body (22c) to be positioned inside the rail-engaging groove. The main spacer body (22c) comprises a protrusion (32c) to hinder sliding of the spacer element (20c) towards the brick-retaining rail. A variant of the spacer element (20c) is made from an unitary sheet providing a main spacer body (22c) and an arm (24) extending from the main spacer body (22c) to engage in the rail-engaging groove, wherein the main spacer body (22c) comprises a lanced portion (28) providing the protrusion (32c). The spacer element (20c) helps to retain a slip brick in an intended position.
ADJUSTABLE SUPPORT SYSTEM FOR A BUILDING STRUCTURE AND A WALL STRUCTURE HAVING AN ADJUSTABLE SUPPORT SYSTEM
An adjustable support system has a base bracket member, a clip member, and an outer bracket. The base bracket member has a first end wall that overlays a substrate, a body wall extending outwardly therefrom and a second end wall opposite the first end wall. The clip member has a base bracket member coupling, and a projecting arm. The base bracket member coupling is attached to the first end wall and overlies a portion of the body wall. The projecting arm is spaceable apart from the body wall. The outer bracket has a spanning wall with inner and outer sides. An outer end wall extends from the outer side. The spanning wall is slidably positionable between the body wall of the base bracket member and the at least one clip member, to sandwich the same. Wall assemblies and methods are likewise disclosed.

ATTACHING AN ASSEMBLED WALL MODULE TO A BUILDING STRUCTURE
Apparatus, systems, and methods for attaching an assembled wall module to a building structure, according to which a framing section, including a plurality of structural members and a first coupler connected to a first structural member of the plurality of structural members, is connected to the building structure. After connecting the framing section to the building structure, relative movement is permitted, via the first coupler, between the framing section and the building structure in a first direction. Before connecting the framing section to the building structure, a plurality of sheeting sections may be connected to the framing section. The framing section may further include a second coupler; in such instances, after connecting the framing section to the building structure, relative movement is permitted, via the second coupler, between the framing section and the building structure in a second direction, which second direction is the same as the first direction.
ARCHITECTURAL BRACKET, BUILDING WALL STRUCTURE, AND PLANK MEMBER CONSTRUCTION METHOD
Provided is an architectural bracket that has an improved strength, and is suitable for realizing a high degree of freedom in terms of the arrangement relationship with a fixation object in construction, as well as a building wall structure and a plank member construction method that use the architectural bracket. An architectural bracket X1 includes a first fixing portion 10 that includes a surface 11 for coming into contact with a building frame, and a second fixing portion 20 that extends from an end of the first fixing portion 10 to a side opposite to the surface 11, so as to intersects with the first fixing portion 10. The second fixing portion 20 includes a base portion 21 that includes a surface 21A, a rib portion 22, a first side-wall portion 23, and a second side-wall portion 24. The rib portion 22 protrudes from the base portion 21, and includes, at a protruding end thereof, a surface 22A. The first side-wall portion 23 protrudes from an end of the base portion 21 in the width direction W of the base portion 21 to the same side as the side to which the rib portion 22 protrudes. The second side-wall portion 24 protrudes from the other end of the base portion 21 in the width direction W to the same side as the side to which the rib portion 22 protrudes.
