A wall or ceiling panel, which, on one side edge, comprises a male coupling part and, on an opposite side edge, comprises a female coupling part. The male coupling part comprises a tongue and the female coupling part comprises a groove. The groove is bordered by a front lip and a rear lip, with the characteristic that the panel forms a ceiling-high wall panel and/or has a length of at least 2400 mm.

A metal anchoring fastener fastens millwork onto walls constructed with wall cladding fastened to steel studs. The load typical of a loaded cabinet is borne by the steel stud anchors owing to the mate between the profile of the steel stud anchor and the layers of millwork and wall cladding and steel stud that said anchor penetrates. The pitch of the thread adorning the profile of the steel stud anchor progresses non-linearly along the length of said shaft, the shaft is generally non-linear in profile, and the thread profile is non-uniform along the length of said shaft. The anchor can also support a secondary screw concentrically penetrating the void at the center of the anchor, in order to hang loads from a wall, with or without millwork. Predrilling of the holes can enable installation of these zinc anchors.

The present invention has the following features. The present invention relates to a flammable flame-proof material provided with a metal material, comprising a metal material and a non-flame-proof-treated thin film sheet on the top of the metal material, wherein an adhesive agent is between the metal material and the non-flame-proof-treated thin film sheet, and relates to an attachment structure for attaching a metal plate with a flammable thin-film construction interior material.

A panel comprises a board having a front face and a back face. The back face has a first edge and a second edge that is aligned with the first edge. A first set of tabs and a second set of tabs are attached to the back face, the first set of tabs being positioned along the first edge of the back face and the second set of tabs being positioned along the second edge of the back face, each individual tab being oriented transversely to the respective edge and protruding from the respective edge. The positions of the individual tabs on the first edge of the back face are offset from the positions of the individual tabs on the second edge of the back face.

A bracket anchor for fastening a facing to a supporting wall has a bracket head for fastening the bracket anchor to the supporting wall, a web plate, a support element for supporting the facing, and a pressure element for transmitting pressure from the bracket anchor to the supporting wall. The support element and the pressure element are secured to the web plate. The entire web plate is formed from a single plate of constant wall thickness. The web plate includes a tension strut and a compression strut which are connected to one another only at their ends facing the support element and at most over half of the projecting length of the bracket anchor.

Provided are a mounting member and a building wall structure that allow a mounting operation to be performed with ease. A mounting member 10 can be equipped with an abutment member 30. The mounting member 10 includes a substrate portion 11, a wall portion 12, a protruding portion 13, a supporting portion 14, a first locking portion 15, and a second locking portion 16. The wall portion 12 protrudes from one side edge 11A of the substrate portion 11 relative to the substrate portion 11. The protruding portion 13 protrudes from the other side edge 11B side of the substrate portion 11 to the same side as the wall portion 12, and has a length L13 of protrusion from the substrate portion 11 shorter than the length of protrusion of the wall portion 12 from the substrate portion 11. The abutment member 30 includes a mounting portion 31 that can be fixed onto at least one of the substrate portion 11 and substantially the same plane 8P as the substrate portion 11 from the protruding portion 13 side, an erect piece 32 that is provided erecting in a direction intersecting the mounting portion 31, and that protrudes toward the side opposite to the substrate portion 11, and a clamping portion 33 that is formed as a single piece with the mounting portion 31, and that is capable of clamping the protruding portion 13 from a direction intersecting the substrate portion 11.

A ventilated facade comprising horizontal rails (4) and covering pieces (3-3′) mounted on the horizontal rails by means of anchoring elements (5), either wires or plates, which hang from the rails through openings (13) that said rails have on a horizontal section (6) of the same.

A fastener configured to catch the edges of a plurality of wallboards with the use of one anchoring element is disclosed. The fastener comprises a convex plate of circular shape having an anchoring hole, which is configured to allow the insertion of an anchoring element, located at the center of the convex plate. The method for using such a fastener comprises placing the fastener at a location where the surface of the convex plate covers a plurality of edges of a plurality of wallboards; inserting an anchoring element (e.g., a screw or nail) through the anchoring hole so that the anchoring element anchors onto a support element; upon completion of insertion of an anchoring element, the surface of the convex plate will be essentially flat and flush with the surface of the plurality of hoards.

The invention relates to a ventilated wall for buildings comprising a thin coating or first layer (1) comprised of porcelain or ceramic stoneware, of marble, of travertine or of volcanic stone or of cement compounds, suitable for being provided at a distance from said building to realize an interspace for air circulation, said ventilated wall comprising a reinforcement system (10) for said first layer (1) comprising, on the side faced toward said building, a second fiberglass layer (2), coupled with said first layer (1), a third layer (3) comprised of foamed material, and a fourth layer (4), the coupling of said layers (1, 2, 3, 4) being realized by gluing material having flexibility properties.
