The invention provides a fire-stopping product, an insulated building façade comprising a fire-stopping product, and a method of making a fire-stopping product. The fire-stopping product comprises a resilient, porous material at least partially impregnated with an intumescent agent and held in compression by a releasable restraint. When exposed to hot gases from a fire, the restraint yields to release the resilient, porous material in an initial expansion, thereby exposing the intumescent agent to the hot gases and allowing rapid intumescence to occur. When implemented in a ventilated building façade, the fire-stopping product is able to close an air gap in a short amount of time.

Provided is a wall panel for forming a wall covering with multiple panels, including a centrally located core. The core includes a rear side, a decorative side opposite the rear side, and at least two sides including coupling parts for mutual coupling of several panels. The coupling parts are arranged to be coupled with an angling motion. A new panel is arranged to be angled into a panel already forming part of the wall covering. The coupling parts include at least one first coupling part and at least one second coupling part arranged on opposite sides of the core. The first coupling part includes a sideward tongue, an upper bridge portion for connecting the sideward tongue to the core and a downward groove, for accommodating at least a parts of an upward locking element. The second coupling part includes a groove.

A fire-rated flooring panel for use in forming a suspended floor, comprising: a bottom metal sheet layer; an upper re-enforced concrete layer overlaying the bottom layer; and a structural steel frame enclosing circumferential walls of the upper and lower layers.

Robust multi-purpose, multi-layer, building construction tapes and building construction framing members and related wall assemblies are disclosed that comprise a sheet metal framing member (all profiles) in combination with a new and more robust type of multi-layer building construction tape for fire safety and sound reduction. The multi-layer building construction tape comprises a flexible thermal barrier layer attached to (1) a flexible intumescent material layer having a lesser width (thereby enabling flex-lock rollover) and/or (2) a resilient unfoamed cross-linked polyethylene layer. In combination, the thermal barrier layer is on a surface of the sheet metal framing member, whereas the thermal barrier layer is attached to the intumescent layer or polyethylene layer (as the case may be) such that the thermal barrier layer is between the sheet metal framing member and the intumescent layer or the polyethylene layer. The multi-layer building construction tapes disclosed herein slow and impede the spread of fire and smoke (during a fire) and also reduces sound transmission between adjacent rooms in a building.

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 tile system for a burn room includes a plurality of interlocking surface tiles, each surface tile having an upper portion and a lower portion. The lower portion extends beyond at least a portion of a perimeter of the upper portion to define a flange. The system further includes a plurality of interlocking corner tiles configured to interact with at least one of the plurality of surface tiles; and a bracket system for securing the plurality of surface tiles and the plurality of corner tiles to a surface.

In a facade assembly (14) for a building (10) with at least one facade element (16), which can be fastened to a wall or an inter-story ceiling (12) of the building (10), and with at least one fire-protection element (18), which can be mounted between the facade element (16) and the wall or the inter-story ceiling (12), the fire-protection element (18) has at least one fire-protection course (32) of an intumescent material.

Furthermore, a method for mounting such a facade assembly is provided, as is a building structure using the facade assembly.

An anti-explosion flooring material is disclosed. The material is prepared by foaming, modification and rust prevention treatment of an iron alloy material and other auxiliary materials having components in percentage by weight: 85% of iron, 8% of manganese, 6% of silicon, and the rest amount of carbon. Because a foaming agent and rare earth are added, the static conducting performance of the flooring material is improved.

Example embodiments of the described technology provide an assembly for providing a seal at a gap defined between opposed surfaces of adjacent building panels. In some embodiments the assembly comprises backer rods and foam tapes extending in a longitudinal direction and spaced apart in a transverse direction. Sealants are applied to the backer rods to provide a seal between surfaces of the adjacent building panels.
