Abstract: A tool for marking the location of a bonding plate concealed beneath a roof membrane. The tool has a magnetic attraction to the bonding plate and causes a marking assembly to vertically lower toward the roof membrane and rotate on an axle. Rotation of the marking assembly and vertical lowering causes the marking implement to come into contact with the roof membrane at a location corresponding to the location of the bonding plate beneath the roof membrane. A brake restricts the rotation of the marking assembly on the axle by coming into contact with an inner edge of a chassis. Contact between the marking implement and the roof membrane and the restriction of rotation of the marking assembly by the brake cause the marking implement to create a visible mark at a position corresponding to the location of the bonding plate beneath the roof membrane.

Abstract: A method for dispensing moisture sensitive materials employs a packaging module comprising an outer carton and an inner flexible enclosure, which is substantially impermeable to moisture and is filled with one part of an adhesive. The enclosed is loaded on a mobile cart and the one part adhesive is supplied to a pump/mixer without exposure to moisture in the atmosphere. The dispensing method can be used in conjunction with mechanized adhesive application equipment for the construction trades.

A cart which employs multiple transversely spaced mixing nozzles is employed to produce transversely spaced beads of adhesive as the cart is pushed along a surface. Part 1 adhesive component and part 2 adhesive component are independently pumped to mixing nozzles which dispense the adhesive in beads.

Abstract: An interlocking panel configured for lightweight insulating concrete has channels which form a profile that includes transversely protruding anchoring cavities. When the lightweight insulating concrete is poured into the channels and hardens, the concrete interlocks and forms an underside interlocking which resists vertical separation of the concrete from the deck panel.

Abstract: The present invention is a washer typically used in fastening insulation to a roof deck. The washer is secured to the deck by a securing member received through an opening in the washer. The washer is provided with a body having a top surface, a thickness dimension, and bottom surface having a substantially planar region. The body is further provided with an opening sized to permit a securing member to pass therethrough. A plurality of fingers are positioned around the opening on the bottom surface of the body. The fingers extend away from the bottom surface, the fingers being positioned around the opening and having at least a portion that extends over the opening. In yet another embodiment, the present invention is, in combination, a washer and a securing member received in an opening provided in the washer.

Abstract: A swiveling roofing washer for use with a roofing fastener has a plate. The plate defines a centrally positioned fastener opening. The plate further has a bottom surface for engagement to a roofing membrane, and an oppositely positioned top surface. The top surface has a swivel surface portion defining a convex surface adjacent and coaxial with the fastener opening. The swivel surface further defines a fastener head receiving channel adjacent the convex portion and coaxial with the fastener opening for engagement with the head portion of a roofing fastener.

Abstract: A panel fastener for fastening insulated wall panel to structural lumber or steel comprises an integral wafer head and a shank having a cylindrical segment and a threaded segment. A distal portion of the fastener has a self-drilling tip. A square socket for receiving a torque driver is recessed into the head.

Abstract: A technique for fastening together logs and a fastener therefor is directed to a self-drilling/tapping fastener which allows the fastener to be driven through the log to be secured without pre-drilling a bore. Counter-bore fins on the fastener head also form a counter-bore for the head. A lubricious coating applied to a portion of the shank accommodates settling of the logs and facilitates installation.

Abstract: A fastener for fastening a pair of metal panels comprises a head which has an annular recess at its underside. A threaded shank has a buttress thread which terminates in a self-driving tip. An sealant/adhesive coating is preapplied to the fastener. The coating seals and bonds between the fastener and the panels upon installation of the fastener.
