Patent number: 10914077Abstract: A wall (or roof) system includes: an exterior sheathing covers a frame, a plurality of spaced apart battens are affixed on the sheathing, and a siding in contact with the battens. Each batten includes: a backweb having two sides and a length, a plurality of elongated piers upstanding on each side of the backweb, each pier running the length of the backweb, and each pier having a distal surface, and a first air flow channel defined between adjacent piers and a horizontal pier cutting through adjacent piers. Air flows between airspaces created between the exterior sheathing and the siding by the batten. Air also flows through the first air flow channel and this air flow may reduce moisture entrapment between the batten and the siding or the exterior sheathing. The batten may also have a second air flow channel at an angle to the first air flow channel.Type: GrantFiled: October 16, 2019Date of Patent: February 9, 2021Assignee: Advanced Building Products, Inc.Inventors: Kenneth A.

Publication number: 20200384755Abstract: A device that is a handheld circular heating element for use in the construction industry is described. Specifically the device is useful for applying heat uniformly to a two-piece membrane for separation of the outer layer to allow the inner layer to be exposed. The device includes a handle, an electrical supply, an on/off switch and a heating element. The device uses electricity to heat the heat-emitting burner of the heating element, which is then placed next to the membrane. As the membrane is warmed, the two layers of the membrane are able to be separated, which exposes the inner membrane.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 4, 2020Publication date: December 10, 2020Applicant: Pacific Coast Building Products, Inc.Inventors: Joseph Carlton Moug, Paul Edwin Boney, Arthur Ralph Gardner, Christopher Joseph Bueno, Jose Arturo Bueno

Publication number: 20190277028Abstract: Disclosed is a multiple layer substrate that can be used with a top asphalt applicator that eliminates the need for a bottom asphalt applicator and fines applied to the bottom asphalt layer. A low porosity or impermeable bottom layer prevents the flow of asphalt applied to the porous top layers of the substrate from penetrating the bottom surface. This eliminates the need for fines to prevent sticking of shingles in a shingle stack. In addition, substrate layers that combine fiberglass and polyester fibers in various configurations provide a substrate that can be used in typical shingle manufacturing and manufacturing of waterproofing products that is impact resistant.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 2, 2019Publication date: September 12, 2019Applicant: TAMKO Building Products, Inc.Inventors: Cyril Chevillard, Aaron R.
