Publication number: 20240125115Abstract: The present application is directed toward fire-rated wall construction components and wall systems for use in building construction. Embodiments can include tracks for holding studs which incorporate various geometries capable of receiving fire-retardant material, flat straps for use between tracks and fluted wall components, fire sponges for use in fluted wall components, and tracks with protruding grooves or other structures which prevent unwanted air movement between a wallboard component and the track.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 22, 2023Publication date: April 18, 2024Inventors: Donald Anthony Pilz, Raymond Edward Poliquin, Fernando Hernandez Sesma

Publication number: 20240052629Abstract: A fire-rated receiver channel includes at least one intumescent or other fire-resistant material strip. The receiver channel can nest with a framing member, such as metal tracks, headers, header tracks, sill plates, bottom tracks, metal studs, wood studs or wall partitions, and placed at a perimeter of a wall assembly to create a fire block arrangement. In other arrangements, a track assembly includes two nested tracks, an inner track and outer track. The assembly is designed so that the outside width of the outer track is equal to or less than the outside width of the inner track to present a substantially flush external surface for attachment of exterior sheathing elements when the assembly is used in an external wall.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 24, 2023Publication date: February 15, 2024Inventors: Donald Anthony Pilz, Raymond Edward Poliquin, Fernando Hernandez Sesma

Patent number: 10406389Abstract: Fire block devices for application to a wall component. The fire-block device can be a wall component that includes a fire-resistant material strip that expands in response to sufficient heat to create a fire-resistant barrier. In some applications, the fire-block wall component is positioned to extend lengthwise along and across a gap between wallboard members. The fire-block wall component may have a U-shaped central portion and a pair of side portions extending in opposite directions from the central portion. The fire-resistant material may be positioned on the central portion of the fire-block device. The central portion may be positioned within the gap such that the fire-resistant material expands in response to sufficient heat to create a fire-resistant barrier.Type: GrantFiled: April 2, 2018Date of Patent: September 10, 2019Assignee: California Expanded Metal Products CompanyInventors: Donald Anthony Pilz, Raymond Edward Poliquin
