Abstract: A lamp body to be releasably coupled to a mounting surface. The lamp body comprises a mount post and a cantilevered lock. The mount post is configured to be received in a mounting hole in the mounting surface, where the mount post is configured to slide between a releasing portion of the mounting hole and a locking portion of the mounting hole. The cantilevered lock is configured to releasably engage with a stop on the mounting surface when the mount post slides into the locking portion of the mounting hole to retain the mount post within the locking portion of the mounting hole.

Abstract: A window system is disclosed. The window system provides improved visibility while protecting against wind and flying debris. In some embodiments, the window panel is made using insulated safety glass for added insulation from the elements and impact protection for wind borne debris. Fins (e.g., glass fins) are affixed to a vertical edge of each window panel to provide extra resistance to wind and flying debris while providing improved visibility over window systems that have metal frames. In some embodiments, the glass fins are made from laminated glass to achieve thicknesses of between two and three inches. In some embodiments, especially when the window panel is very tall, one or more horizontal fins are affixed to the inside surface of the glass for added strength.

Abstract: A composite panel system for attaching to a wall system includes a layer of continuous insulation covering the wall system and a plurality of vertical girts affixed the wall system such that the continuous insulation lays between the wall system and the vertical girts. Composite panels are mounted to a perimeter frame of extrusions, generally two horizontal and two vertical. The panel frame horizontal extrusions are mounted to the vertical girts by fasteners. In some embodiments, gypsum and a membrane are used in lieu of continuous insulation.

Abstract: A curtain wall system includes a plurality of laminated glass sections or insulated-laminated glass sections, held within a plurality of horizontal extrusions and vertical extrusions. Each laminated glass section includes glass reinforcing bars having a flat bar shape. For insulated-laminated glass, the reinforcing bars have a cross-sectional shape of a ‘Z’ such that a top cap of the glass reinforcing bars extends over the glass section and a bottom cap of the glass reinforcing bars extends over an opposing side. The laminate glass has a layer of glass, a layer of thermoplastic polymer, another layer of glass and a safety shield. The insulated-laminated glass has an outer layer of glass, a gap, a first inner layer of glass, a layer of thermoplastic polymer, a second inner layer of glass and a safety shield. Such curtain wall systems resist wind loads and wind borne debris from ultimate hurricanes and tornadoes.
