  • Publication number: 20220074196
    Abstract: A ventilation screed configured to be mounted at a vertical wall of a structure includes an attachment flange having an upper end region and a lower end region opposite the upper end region. A cavity structure is disposed along the upper end region of the attachment flange. The cavity structure has a first side, a second side, and a third side. The first side extends from the upper end region of the attachment flange. The third side extends over the first side and is spaced from the first side and from the upper end region of the attachment flange. The second side extends between the first side and the third side. At least one ventilation opening is formed through the first side of the cavity structure. A ventilation spacer extends from the first side of the cavity structure and is spaced from and extends partially along the attachment flange.

  • Patent number: 11180928
    Abstract: A system and method of installing a modular fencing system in which slotted posts are used in conjunction with hollow longitudinal rails to support the fence panels in a manner that creates a unified curtain wall perimeter barrier. The posts, rails, and fence panels are made of metal. Plastic sleeves with angularly-tilted ends are inserted into both sides of a slot opening to prevent water intrusion and to facilitate fencing on a slope. The rails are then slidably inserted into and through the sleeves to be held in place through the slots. Adjacent rails are mechanically fastened to each other. The full length of the fence is bolted to the rails to ensure that any load or impact to the fence is distributed throughout the entire system. For additional strength, each fence panel is also through-bolted to metallic finish plates, which are mounted on the slotted posts.
