Patent number: 8122679Abstract: A fire resistive assembly including metal framing members, for example, C-joists, U-joists, open web joists, HAMBRO or other metal frame systems that support a reinforced, lightweight, dimensionally stable SCP panel. The assembly is non-combustible, water durable, mold and rot resistant, termite resistant and is capable of resisting shear loads equal to or exceeding shear loads provided by plywood or oriented strand board panels. The panels employ one or more layers of a continuous phase resulting from the curing of an aqueous mixture of inorganic binder, for example, calcium sulfate alpha hemihydrate, hydraulic cement, an active pozzolan and lime. The continuous phase is reinforced with glass fibers and contains lightweight filler particles, for example, ceramic microspheres.Type: GrantFiled: November 15, 2010Date of Patent: February 28, 2012Assignee: United States Gypsum CompanyInventors: Timothy D. Tonyan, James M. Ullett, James E. Reicherts

Patent number: 8065853Abstract: This invention relates to a structural cementitious panel (SCP) panel able to resist lateral forces imposed by high wind and earthquake loads in regions where they are required by building codes. These panels may be used for shear walls, flooring or roofing or other locations where shear panels are used in residential or commercial construction. The panels employ one or more layers of a continuous phase resulting from the curing of an aqueous mixture of inorganic binder reinforced with glass fibers and containing lightweight filler particles. One or more reinforcement members, such as mesh or plate sheets, are bonded to at least one surface of the panel to provide a completed panel that can breathe and has weather resistant characteristics to be capable of sustaining exposure to the elements during construction, without damage.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 2010Date of Patent: November 29, 2011Assignee: U.S. Gypsum CompanyInventors: Timothy D. Tonyan, James E. Reicherts

Patent number: 8061257Abstract: A cementitious armor panel assembly including cementitious armor panel with ballistic and blast resistant properties attached to a frame structure to produce a protective structure. The cementitious armor panels have a continuous phase resulting from the curing of an aqueous mixture of an inorganic cement binder, an inorganic mineral filler having a particle size of about 150-450 microns, a pozzolanic mineral filler, a polycarboxylate based superplasticizer self-leveling agent, and water. The mixture may also contain alkanolamine, and acid or acid salt. Prior to curing, the continuous phase is reinforced with fiber uniformly distributed in the continuous phase before it is cured to form the panel. The panel may be reinforced with a skin attached to at least one surface of the panel.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2009Date of Patent: November 22, 2011Assignee: United States Gypsum CompanyInventors: Timothy D. Tonyan, William A. Frank, Ashish Dubey, Kumar Natesaiyer, Bartley P. Durst, Pamela G. Kinnebrew, Toney K. Cummins, Nicholas Boone, William F. Heard, Michael J. Roth, Thomas Slawson, James L.

Patent number: 8062741Abstract: A cementitious panel with ballistic and blast resistant properties having a core layer of ultra-high compressive strength composite and at least one skin layer. The panels can also be used in walls, ceiling and flooring panels which require high compressive strength for resistance to earthquakes and surfaces resistant to surface abuse such as in prison and other institutions. The panel core layer has a continuous cementitious phase resulting from the curing of an aqueous mixture, in the absence of silica flour, of inorganic cement binder, inorganic mineral filler having a particle size of about 150-450 microns, a pozzolanic mineral filler, polycarboxylate based superplasticizer, alkanolamine and acid or alkali metal acid salt; and water. The mixture may be uniformly reinforced with fiber added before curing. The cementitious core layer is then reinforced with the skin, such as fiber reinforced polymer, attached to at least one panel surface.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2009Date of Patent: November 22, 2011Assignee: U.S. Gypsum CompanyInventors: Timothy D. Tonyan, William A. Frank, Ashish Dubey, Cesar Chan, Bartley P. Durst, Pamela G. Kinnebrew, Toney K. Cummins, Nicholas Boone, William F. Heard, Michael J. Roth, James L. Davis
