  • Patent number: 11131089
    Abstract: A high performance wall assembly receives an exterior covering of a building. The high performance wall assembly includes a frame assembly having a top member, a bottom member opposite the top member, and a plurality of vertical members. The vertical members are coupled to and extend between the top and bottom members. The high performance wall assembly also includes a rigid foam insulating panel coupled to the frame assembly. A structural foam layer is disposed on the plurality of vertical members and on the rigid foam insulating panel. The structural foam layer couples the rigid foam insulating panel to the frame assembly and couples the plurality of vertical members to the top and bottom members such that the high performance wall is free of fasteners.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9702152
    Abstract: A prefabricated wall assembly receives an exterior covering of a building. The prefabricated wall assembly comprises a frame assembly and an outer foam layer. The outer foam layer is coupled to the frame assembly. The outer foam layer extends from the frame assembly to an exterior surface of the outer foam layer. The exterior surface of the outer foam layer is configured to receive the exterior covering of the building. The outer foam layer comprises a plurality of particles and a binder that define a plurality of pathways. The pathways extend vertically through the prefabricated wall assembly from the top member to the bottom member of the frame assembly for allowing airflow and drainage between the frame assembly and the exterior covering.

  • Publication number: 20140115988
    Abstract: A prefabricated wall assembly receives an exterior covering of a building. The prefabricated wall assembly includes a frame assembly and an insulating foam layer. The frame assembly includes a top member, a bottom member opposite the top member, and a plurality of vertical members coupled to and extending between the top and bottom members. The frame assembly also has an interior side and an exterior side opposite the interior side. The insulating foam layer is disposed between the plurality of vertical members of the frame assembly and also extends from the exterior side of the frame assembly terminating in a plurality of integral ribs. An exterior surface of the insulating foam layer is presented between the plurality of ribs. The ribs space the exterior covering from the exterior surface of the insulating foam layer for allowing airflow and drainage between the prefabricated wall assembly and the exterior covering.

  • Publication number: 20020091582
    Abstract: The present invention features a system that allows a merchant to create a web site from the embodiments of the present invention using a structure-template based software tool. The merchant then inputs information into the present invention and thereby automatically creates an index, with contact information, email capabilities, product listing and other information. At the same time, the merchant can generate product listings pages with photos, order forms with capabilities of linking related products and that can calculate totals, prices, shipping. The merchant can also generate a Web site search engine so customers can quickly find the products on the site they are looking for. The system has a fully customizable, easy-to use menu system, with everything password protected for security. The merchant may further create a Web site that automatically generates product listings with photos, along with detailed descriptions of the price, characteristics and attributes of each of the products.
