FINISHING ACCESSORY WITH BACKING STRIP
A framing accessory includes a bead and a backing strip. The bead may comprise a first leg, a second leg, and a lip. The second leg may comprise a plurality of openings. The strip may be attached to the upper surface of the first leg. In some embodiments, the strip may comprise a single layer of material, while in other embodiments, the strip may comprise two or more layers of material. The strip may comprise material having fire resistant, intumescent, and/or sound insulating properties. The finishing accessory may be configured to be installed in a gap at a head of wall joint by positioning the first leg and strip along the top edge of a wallboard panel and the second leg extending vertically downward along the outer surface of the wallboard panel.

Cove base roll dolly
The cove base roll dolly is adapted for use in transporting objects. The cove base roll dolly is adapted for use in the transporting of cove base rolls. The cove base roll is further defined with as a spool of material loaded on the drum of a spool. The cove base roll is adapted for use in the distribution of the cove base. Wherein the cove base roll is distributed by unrolling the material off the spool. The cove base roll dolly receives the cove base roll for use in the distribution of the cove base off the cove base roll. The cove base roll dolly is a wheeled device. The cove base roll dolly further comprises a transport base, a slew bearing, a turntable, and a plurality of casters.
FORMABLE CORNER FINISHING AND TRIM STRIP
A formable trim strip for use in connection with drywall applications includes two or more layers, including a trim strip body and a backing paper. The trim strip body extends along a body axis and has a top surface and a bottom surface. The trim strip body comprises a polymer material. The backing paper includes a portion secured to the bottom surface of the trim strip body without an intervening layer of adhesive material. The trim strip body is coated onto the portion of the backing paper when a temperature of the trim strip body is within the melting point range such that the bottom surface of the trim strip body contacts the portion of the backing paper. As the trim strip body cools to a temperature below the melting point range, the portion of the backing paper bonds to the bottom surface of the trim strip body.

Corner structures
The present disclosure relates generally to building surface joint supports, for example, suitable for covering a seam between two building surface panels. In certain aspects, the disclosure provides joint supports that include an elongate layered structure having inside and outside surfaces, the elongate layered structure including a support strip that includes first and second elongate flanges. In certain embodiments, the elongate layered structure also includes an inner facing sheet disposed on the inside surface of the support strip; and an outer facing sheet disposed on the outside surface of the support strip, wherein the each of the inner facing sheet and the outer facing sheet is formed from a fibrous polymer material. In other embodiments, each flange of the first and second elongate flanges includes apertures therethrough, each aperture having a width that extends laterally across at least 50% of the width of the respective flange; and the elongate layer structure also includes an outer facing sheet disposed on the outside surface of the support strip.
Drywall Corner Assembly
A drywall corner assembly includes a trim unit that has a first portion which is perpendicularly oriented with a second portion thereby facilitating the trim unit to be installed on an outside corner of a framed wall intended for receiving drywall installation. A pair of screw plates is each integrated into a respective one of the first portion and the second portion of the trim unit to accommodate a fastener for attaching the trim unit to framing members of the framed wall. A sheet is bonded to the trim unit and the sheet extends substantially across each of the first portion and the second portion of the trim unit. The sheet is aligned with an exposed surface of drywall installed on the framed wall to facilitate joint compound to be laid between the drywall and the sheet.
