Publication number: 20240238884Abstract: A digitally automated system that eliminates the carpentry centric approach by integrating software and specialized machines to process light gauge steel framing members of different profiles so they can be assembled into wall sections without a carpenter referring to building plans, layout or manually marking and cutting. The machinery provides a receiving station where either tracks or studs are placed, measured and imprinted with unique indicia indicating the placement in a wall section and in the building. The tracks and studs are processed by other machinery that cut, punch, emboss and otherwise process the framing members. The processed framing members are bundled and assembled into wall sections for placement in the building. The software directs the imprinting of the unique indicia and selects the framing members that meet all necessary criteria.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 12, 2022Publication date: July 18, 2024Applicant: BYLD IPCO LLCInventors: Michael Lastowski, John Vanker

Patent number: 11585080Abstract: A balcony includes a balcony assembly and a structural post and outrigger system. The structural posts provide structural support for buildings and include the outriggers that extend substantially perpendicularly from the structural posts to a location where the balcony assembly will be installed. The outriggers include a tube or beam and an end plate on an end of the beam distal from the structural post. The balcony assembly includes at least one long beam, a platform, and a locking mechanism on an end of the long beam. The locking mechanism includes a channel for receiving and securing the end plate of the outrigger. The balcony assembly is secured to the outrigger using fasteners.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2020Date of Patent: February 21, 2023Assignee: PATCO, LLCInventors: John Louis Vanker, Michael Lastowski
