A structural assembly for use in building applications is disclosed. The assembly has spaced inner and outer face sheets, as well as one or more intermediate panels positioned between the inner and outer face sheets. The intermediate panels are parallel to the inner and outer face sheets, and are supported by alternating flanged web members that engage either the inner or outer face sheets. The assembly provides an enhanced ability to dissipate blast or projectile impact forces and to carry the forces throughout the assembly, thus maintaining sufficient structural integrity in the building to enable the occupants to evacuate, to enable contents to be evacuated, and to enable reuse of the building itself.

Corrugated furring strips are used on the outer side of an exterior insulation layer in an exterior wall construction. The corrugated furring strips support a final cladding layer at an offstanding position from the insulation, thereby providing a rainscreen. The corrugated furring strips are fastened to the framework of the wall through the exterior insulation layer. Optional bridging members shaped to conformingly mate with lands and grooves of the corrugated furring straps cooperate therewith to define a support grid with improved load capacity for heavier cladding materials and more fastening location options. The insulation layer is free of any thermal bridges other than the insulation-penetrating fasteners used to support the furring and optional bridges. Thermally insulative washers isolate the furring and optional bridges from the fasteners to further improve the insulating effect of the wall.

Method of manufacturing a metal framing member

Номер: US20170144210A1
Автор: Jeffrey A. Anderson
Принадлежит: Individual

A framing member incorporates a series of web slots along a portion of the member that are expanded through the process of manufacture. The expansion of the web slots creates voids and metal web elements in the webbed portion of the member, which can be a stud. The voids created during the expansion process can become the voids for running wiring, plumbing and heating ducts. The web elements can be designed to minimize thermal transmission from the exterior to the interior of a wall including the member, as well as provide adequate structure properties required from the structural member. The expanded slots allow the part to enlarge without increasing the amount of raw material and therefore substantially reducing the cost to manufacture.

Принадлежит: SACKS INDUSTRIAL CORP

Various metal framing members enhance thermally insulative characteristics of a wall. Framing members include a metal stud with a web portion having through-holes that include at least one piece of retained material. Each of the through-holes lengthens or disrupts thermally conductive paths across the framing member, forming convoluted or serpentine thermal paths. The through-holes are arranged in a pattern that defines a truss structure that includes a number of straight-line web sections that extend uninterruptedly diagonally across a width of the web portion. Framing members include tracks, to hold metal studs, each with a web portion with through-holes that lengthen or disrupt thermally conductive paths. The framing members may be the result of a continuous manufacturing processing, formed of a unitary singular piece of material (e.g., galvanized metal). Thermally insulative gaskets or membranes may insulate the tracks from adjacent structure or surfaces. Structures may be provided as a kit.

Ductile Connections for Pre-Formed Construction Elements

Номер: US20200291646A1
Автор: MASHAL Mohammad Mustafa
Принадлежит:

Precast construction elements are described suitable for use in high seismic area. The precast construction elements can be precast, pre-topped double tees. The precast construction elements incorporate a passive energy dissipation device in a flange. The energy dissipation device provides a ductile connection having a deformation capacity of larger than 0.6″. Adjacent elements are connected to one another at joints that include the passive energy dissipation device. Passive energy dissipation devices can be passive hysteretic dampeners, such as U-shaped flexural plates. Passive energy dissipation devices can be bar dissipaters (e.g., grooved dissipaters). Also described are passive hysteretic dampers that include U-shaped flexural plates held in conjunction with a reinforcement element that defines a circle around which the flexural plate can bend.

본 발명은 라멘조 건축물의 비내력벽을 구성하는 패널(panel)을 상, 하 2개로 분리하여 제작함으로써 패널(panel)설치가 가능하게 하며, 상부 패널(panel)은 높이에 관계없이 일정치수로 제작하여 표준화함으로써 대량생산이 가능한 상하부 패널(panel)이 분리된 스틸스터드 패널(panel)에 관한 것이다. The present invention enables the panel installation by separating the panel (panel) constituting the non-bearing wall of the ramen-like building into two, upper and lower, and the upper panel (panel) to produce a certain dimension regardless of the height The present invention relates to a steel stud panel in which upper and lower panels capable of mass production by standardization are separated. 상기와 같은 본 발명은 고정 상부 트랙과 고정 하부 트랙 사이에 고정 스틸스터드가 결합 설치되어 있는 하부 패널(panel)과, 상기 하부 패널(panel)의 고정 상부 트랙 위에 위치하며 이동 상부트랙과 이동 하부 트랙 사이에 이동 스틸스터드가 결합설치되어 이동 상부 트랙이 상하 이동가능하도록 되어 있는 상부 패널(panel)로 이루어지는 것을 특징으로 하는 상하부 패널(panel)이 분리된 스틸스터드 패널(panel)을 제공하여 현장에서 일일이 스틸스터드들 끼워넣는 불편함 없이 공사 현장 외부에서 미리 벽체 패널(panel)을 제작한 후 현장에서 패널(panel)을 손쉽게 세워 벽체를 구성할 수 있도록 하여 시공성을 향상 시킬 수 있으며, 상부 슬래브와 벽체 사이의 공간이 생기는 것을 방지할 수 있고, 또한 상부 하중을 흡수할 수 있게 제작함으로써 벽체의 균열을 방지할 수 있다. The present invention as described above is a lower panel (panel) is installed between the fixed upper track and the fixed lower track fixed, and the fixed upper track of the lower panel (panel) is located above the movable upper track and the movable lower track Moving steel studs are installed between the upper and lower panels, characterized in that the upper panel (panel) to be moved up and down movable up and down to provide a separate steel stud panel (panel) in the field It is possible to improve the workability by constructing the wall panel on the outside of the construction site without the inconvenience of inserting steel studs, and easily constructing the wall at the site to construct the wall, and between the upper slab and the wall. It is possible to prevent the formation of spaces and to absorb the upper loads to prevent cracking of walls. Can.
