Abstract: A method of and system for producing Class-A fire-protected oriented strand board (OSB) sheets. Each Class-A fire-protected OSB sheet has: a core medium layer made of wood pump, binder and/or adhesive materials; a pair of OSB layers bonded to the core medium layer; a clean fire inhibiting chemical (CFIC) coating on the surface of each OSB layer, made from CFIC liquid applied to the surface by dipping the OSB sheet into the CFIC liquid in a dipping tank, allowing shallow surface absorption into the OSB layers and ends of the core medium layer at atmospheric pressure; and a moisture, fire and UV protection coating spray coated over the the CFIC coating to provide protection against moisture, fire and UV radiation from Sunlight, which is quickly dried by passing through a drying tunnel on the production line.

Abstract: An automated and remotely-controllable wildfire ember misting-type suppression system and method that employs an electronic wildfire ember detection device using infra-red (IR) and other thermal-imaging sensors, and relative humidity sensors, to automatically detect the presence of a wildfire in the vicinity of the wood-framed building and automatically generate a cloud of wildfire ember suppressing mist consisting of microscopic droplets of clean anti-fire (AF) liquid that (i) instantly evaporates into vapor when contacting a flying wildfire ember and (ii) breaks and/or interferes with free-radical chemical reactions supported on the surface of each combusting wildfire ember flying in the wildfire storm moving about the wood-framed building.

Abstract: A wild-fire protected shed structure for installation on a parcel of real property, or within a garage, and having a fire-protected internal storage space for storing and protecting diverse items of personal property during raging wild-fires. The wild-fire protected shed structure has a Class-A fire-protected wood-frame structure constructed from Class-A fire-protected lumber, and having an interior side and an exterior side. Radiant energy insulation is installed on the exterior side of said wood-frame structure, for insulation to radiant energy sources located outside of the wild-fire protective shed structure. Thermal energy insulation is applied to the interior side of the wood frame structure, to provide thermal energy insulation to the interior of the wild-fire protected shed structure to maintain the interior temperature relatively cool, despite extreme temperatures outside while wildfires are circling the wild-fire protected shed structure.

Abstract: A cloud-based system for verifying and documenting Class-A fire-protection treatment of a wood-framed building using on-site spraying of a clean fire inhibiting chemical (CFIC) liquid. The system includes (i) a data center with web, application and database servers for supporting a web-based site for hosting images of certificates stamped on spray-treated wood surfaces, and other certification documents, and (ii) mobile smart-phones used to capture digital photographs and video recording of spray-treated wood-framed building sections during the on-site fire-protection spray process, and upload the captured digital images to the data center, for each spray treatment project, so that insurance companies, builders, and other stakeholders can review such on-site spray completion certifications during the building construction phase of the wood-framed building.

Abstract: A method of and apparatus for making and applying a clean fire and smoke inhibiting slurry composition containing clean fire inhibiting chemicals, and cellulose or wood fiber, mixed with water and other additives, on surfaces including ground surfaces in advance of wild fire, to blanket grounds from wildfire ignition, and also application over smoldering ambers and ashes to prevent re-ignition while reducing (i) the use of significant amounts of water, (ii) the production of toxic run off water, and (iii) toxic smoke.

Abstract: A method of and system for helping building construction team members in significant ways: (i) quickly detect high-risk fire outbreaks and arson strikes to a wood-framed and mass timber buildings under construction; (ii) receiving automatic notifications when fire outbreaks and arson strikes are detected at GPS-specific regions in a building under construction, and (iii) automatically and quickly responding to the detected fire outbreak and/or arson strike using AI-guided and/or VR-guided thermal-imaging flying drones, and AI/guided and/or VR-guided thermally-imaging fire seeking and suppressing robots and drone systems which eliminate these fire outbreaks by directly controlled spray streams of clean anti-fire (AF) liquid on the fire, using only ¼ of the water required using conventional fire extinguishing methods.

Abstract: A method of and apparatus for automatically suppressing a detected fire in a building, vessel or vehicle, using a cloud of microscopic droplets generated from a supply of environmentally-clean water-based free-radical chemical-reaction interrupting liquid, whereby the droplets are vaporized by heat energy from the fire, instantly cooling the fire and displacing oxygen, while the water-based chemical vapor interrupts the free-radical chemical-reactions in the combustion phase of the fire, while minimizing smoke development, water damage, and risk of fire re-ignition.

Abstract: Methods of and systems for spraying a defensive path around vulnerable neighborhoods out in front of wild fires to make sure that an environmentally-safe fire break, created by the spray application of anti-fire (AF) liquid, defends homes from the destructive forces of raging wild fires. The methods include spraying homes with environmentally-clean anti-fire (AF) chemical liquid, in advance of wild fires. The preferred anti-fire chemical liquid used does not depend on water to extinguish fire, so that, even after a month or two after spray application on dry brush around the neighborhood, the anti-fire chemical continues to work by stalling the ability of a fire to advance and consume homes.

Abstract: An Internet-based system network for supporting the delivery, certification and remote inspection of fire-protection provided to wood-framed and mass-timber building construction sites, as well as prefabricated wood-framed and mass timber buildings and components within a prefabricated building factory. The system network also manages the supply of clean fire inhibiting chemical (CFIC) totes from a chemical factory or warehouse to (i) wood-framed building construction job sites, as well as (ii) factories manufacturing prefabricated fire-protected wood-framed and mass-timber buildings and components (e.g. modules and panels) using data centers and a network of wireless mobile computing devices.
