A CORNER ASSEMBLY, A STRUCTURAL FRAME COMPRISING SAID CORNER ASSEMBLY, AND THE USE OF THE CORNER ASSEMBLY
20230051257 · 2023-02-16 ·

The present invention relates a corner assembly for use in a structural frame, said corner assembly comprises a housing defining a first and a second groove arranged at a predetermined angle to each other, and wherein the first groove is arranged for telescopically receiving and/or displacing a first elongated structural element and the second groove is arranged for telescopically receiving and/or displacing a second elongated structural element, and wherein the corner assembly further comprises a first and a second locking mechanisms arranged for independently of each other releasably fastening the first and second elongated structural element in the corresponding first and second groove. Since both the first and second locking mechanism is arranged for individually securing/fastening an elongated structural element to the corner assembly, the telescopic extension/displacement of each elongated structural element can be individually and independently adjusted irrespectively of the extension/displacement of the other elongated structural element.

Barrier members for a building debris containment system
11578497 · 2023-02-14 ·

A debris containment system includes channel units that are configured to attach to perimeter structural members of the building (e.g., vertical columns and/or horizontal beams) and extend outward from the perimeter of the building. Channel units can be produced in any length or lengths needed for a given application. These channel units are used to lift and support barrier members (e.g., nets, tarps, canvas/fabric, or other barrier members) to create barriers along the perimeter of the building. Importantly, these channel units are generally attached directly or indirectly (e.g., via temporary vertical members) to structures that will remain on the building (e.g., structural columns and beams of the building) as opposed to being used with separate framing structures erected outside of the building perimeter, although in some exemplary embodiments, channel units can be used on structures erected outside of the perimeter of the building.

AN EDGE PROTECTOR ADAPTED TO BE CAST INTO THE EDGE OF A CONCRETE FLOOR SLAB
20180010349 · 2018-01-11 · ·

Edge protectors are useful to be cast into the edges of concrete slabs to prevent spalling thereof after shrinkage has occurred and a gap has formed between adjacent slabs. An alternative edge protector (10) is described which comprises a first folded sheet having, in use, an upper (35) and a lower portion (25), the fold being on a first side of the first folded sheet and being alignable, in use, with the sidewall of the slab, the upper portion being planar and being arrangeable, in use, with its upper surface coplanar with the upper surface of the slab, the lower portion extending at least partially under the upper portion in a direction away from the fold, and continuing from the end of the lower portion in the same general direction, without any further folds or bends greater than 90 degrees, as an anchor portion (20) such that the anchor portion is arrangeable within the slab.

Roof cover system improvement

Partition mount with integrated plunger assembly
11530542 · 2022-12-20 · ·

A partition mount system includes an integrated plunger assembly. The integrated plunger assembly is constructed and arranged to be integrated into an interior of an end of an extension pole, for example a standard telescoping extension pole. Mounting of the plunger in an interior portion of the pole in this manner provides for a sleek design that is relatively lightweight. Assuming that the pole in which the anchor is mounted is part of a telescoping pole system, the anchor and plunger do not interfere with full travel of the interior pole with respect to other poles in the telescoping system. In this manner, operation of the telescoping pole system is not inhibited by the integrated plunger assembly.

Catch mat
11634918 · 2023-04-25 ·

A catch mat for protecting a floor and a wall during construction activities includes two or more cushioning pads each having a top surface, a bottom surface, and four peripheral edges. Each cushioning pad has a first part of a two-part fastener strip fixed along the top surface proximate one of the peripheral edges. A flexible second part of the two-part fastener strip is adapted to engage the first part of the two-part fastener strip of adjacent and abutting cushioning pads to fasten them mutually yet pivotally together. Each cushioning pad further includes at least one resilient masking strip projecting away from one of the peripheral edges of the cushioning pad at the top surface thereof. In use, the cushioning pads, fastened together, are placed on the floor against the wall with the masking strip bent upward against the wall to protect the floor and wall from falling debris.
