An apparatus for use in lifting or pulling an object. The apparatus comprises a female part including a hole extending into the female part. The hole includes a first portion and a second portion, the first portion being narrower than the second portion. The apparatus further comprises a sleeve comprising a plurality of arms, at least one of which is flexible. The plurality of arms define a channel, the arms being configured for insertion into the hole in the female part such that distal portions of the arms are at least partially positioned in the second portion of the hole. The apparatus further comprises a male part, for insertion into the channel of the sleeve, comprising a distal stop.

A boom clamp attachment has a gib frame, a boom quick-connect, a shaft arm axle, a shaft arm torque assembly, and at least one gib clamp assembly. The gib clamp assembly has a clamp support member having a first gib clamp at a first end and second gib clamp at a second end. The gib clamp has a fixed finger and a moveable finger, the moveable finger controlled via hydraulics. The boom clamp may hoist, tilt, and position an assembled section of panels.

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.

Portable apparatus for application of double-sided sheet adhesive to modular flooring products, includes a planar platform; a flooring guide; a roll of double-sided sheet adhesive unrolled onto the platform for marrying with the modular flooring product; a sheet adhesive guide to maintain the sheet adhesive in alignment with the flooring guide and the modular flooring product, and to tension the sheet adhesive as it is applied to the flooring product; and a press roll to apply pressure to mate the sheet adhesive to the flooring product.

A mounting bracket a generally C-shaped arrangement for receiving a fork carrier beam of a drywall crane fork assembly. A removable sidewall carried by the mounting bracket for enclosing the mounting bracket around the fork carrier beam. A tensioning member carried by the removable sidewall for biasing against the fork carrier beam. An extension arm carried in an extension arm port, wherein the extension arm has a generally L-shaped arrangement with a first arm portion adjustably carried in the extension arm port, and a second arm portion disposed at a distal end of the first arm portion and extending perpendicular to the first arm portion. Accordingly, the mounting bracket is removably mountable around the fork carrier beam and provides the extension arm extending in an adjustable arrangement perpendicular to lifting forks of the drywall crane fork assembly to assist with sliding drywall off the fork assembly over an extended distance.

A boom clamp attachment has a gib frame, a boom quick-connect, a shaft arm axle, a shaft arm torque assembly, and at least one gib clamp assembly. The gib clamp assembly has a clamp support member having a first gib clamp at a first end and second gib clamp at a second end. The gib clamp has a fixed finger and a moveable finger, the moveable finger controlled via hydraulics. The boom clamp may hoist, tilt, and position an assembled section of panels.

A method for installing building panels, the method including forming a composite building panel from a plurality of panels, transporting the composite building panel to the site of installation and lifting the composite building panel by a lifting facility into position within a building.

In a lifting clamp, a pair of opposite pieces are provided to a main body, wherein the opposite pieces are opposed to form a gripping space where an object to be transported can be gripped. Contact units to contact the object to be transported are provided on the respective gripping space sides of the opposite pieces. A handle is attached to the main body to be rotatable relative to a spindle that is disposed along a gripping direction shown by a dot-dashed line. A conversion unit that converts a rotational movement by turning of the handle into gripping movement to push the contact unit to the gripping side is disposed between the contact unitand the opposite piece. The contact unitis attached to a spindle that supports the handleon one side, and the size of the gripping space can be changed by sliding the spindle with respect to the opposite piece.

An apparatus, system, and method for lifting an assembled wall module into position for attachment to a building structure.

A construction system for building a home independently is provided that assists a sole home builder so that a modern home can be built without the use of heavy machinery or reliance on professionals.
