SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MODULAR CONSTRUCTION ELEMENTS AND INTERCHANGEABLE INSERTS
20230061031 · 2023-03-02 ·

Modular Construction elements are characterized by a variety of profiles and associated interchangeable components and/or inserts. Together, these structures and components allow the end user to incorporate dissimilar or similar materials having a wide range of thicknesses and geometries into a flanged associated with the construction elements and tailored to its particular profile. Through the use of a unique set of interconnection methods and systems, a relatively small set of elements can be arranged to protect the surfaces of a wide array of interior surface treatments and the intersections of those surfaces. Dimensional material can be configured to provide the desired form of intersection and transition type—e.g., horizontally to horizontally, horizontal to vertically, vertical to vertical, vertically to horizontally, and the like—while at the same time creating and maintaining a sealed, sanitary and watertight condition within a specified area.

Structure cladding trim components and methods for fabrication and use of same

A cladding kit is provided for a structure cladding, the structure cladding comprising a first panel that extends away from a structure location along a first surface portion of the structure and a second panel that extends away from the structure location along a second surface portion of the structure. The cladding kit comprises a base piece couplable to the structure at the structure location, the base piece comprising a base connector, and a trim piece comprising first and second wings and a trim connector shaped to make a connection with the base connector to thereby couple the trim piece to the base piece. The first wing is shaped to contact, and be deformed by, the first panel when a connection is made. The second wing is shaped to contact, and be deformed by, the second panel when the connection is made.

Snap-in trim systems include a mounting element securable to or integrated with a structural component of a building. Structural components include modular wall components suitable for having decorative or structural trim attached thereto. The mounting element extends longitudinally along a length of the structural component. A longitudinal connection element is secured to the mounting element along the length thereof. The connection element attaches to the mounting element at an attachment interface either anterior-perpendicularly, lateral-parallelly, or anterior-lateral-diagonally. A trim element is connected to or integrated with the connection element. Connected trim elements include an alignment element for ensuring proper positioning of the trim element relative to the connection element. Trim elements include baseboard, crown molding, window casing, door casing and door stops.
