Abstract: A structural member for a window comprising two extrusions spaced apart and coupled to each other using an insulating coupler extending at least 40 mm apart to form the structural member and hinder thermal bridging. A stiffener extends inside the structural member between the extrusions to stiffen the structural member and comprises two spaced apart ends engaged with the two extrusions, respectively. The two ends are coupled to each other using an insulating stiffener coupler to support the stiffener and hinder thermal bridging. A method of forming a thermally broken structural member.

Abstract: Systems and methods for a pressure equalized rainscreen (PER) and for mounting the same to a building. The PER system is mounted using a plurality of mounting strips that demarcate wall portions corresponding to panels for covering those wall portions. Each panel is movably engaged with a mounting strip for support and to allow deformation of the panel once fastened to the exterior wall.

Abstract: Systems and methods for a pressure equalized rainscreen (PER) and for mounting the same to a building. A PER system includes a panel disposed over an exterior wall that defines a cavity adjacent to the building for pressure equalization. Moisture is drained out of the cavity via a first opening(s), and air flows into and out of the cavity for pressure equalization via a second opening(s). The panel is configured to hinder flowing air via the first opening(s) and hinder draining moisture via the second opening(s). The PER system is mounted using a plurality of mounting strips that demarcate wall portions corresponding to panels for covering those wall portions. Each panel is movably engaged with a mounting strip for support and to allow deformation of the panel once fastened to the exterior wall.
