Abstract: A structural grid support system adapted for transferring seismic loads to the vertical structural supports of a modular structure. The system includes larger and longer high load capacity main runners with mechanically fastened cross tees, which transfer seismic forces without failing. The structural grid can provide a diaphragm using mechanically fastened connections in a single horizontal plane without requiring additional overhead support from the roof deck, or requiring fewer such supports. The main runners may include additional connecting elements disposed within the usable space beneath the runner (e.g., ventral threaded receivers) for attaching deployment-specific equipment or hardware, such as network cable trays.

Abstract: A structural stud post assembly comprising a center receiver section having opposing receiver channels formed by side walls and angled flanges, and a pair of raceway inserts also defining a raceway channel for accepting wiring and equipment to be disposed in the raceway. The raceways can be installed in the receiver channels to accept and accommodate wiring and equipment. The center receiver comprises a thermal break at about a midpoint to prevent there from being a metal -to-metal thermally conductive pathway through the stud. The structural stud post may be used in the construction of modular building systems.

Abstract: A panel for use in constructing a ceiling of an enclosure, particularly a cleanroom without using a grid support. The panel includes a thin shell or skin which is placed around an internal bracing member in such as fashion that the resulting panel can be hung from an overhead support in a fashion to have a single join or seam between adjacent panels.

Abstract: A modular wall system is described that includes a plurality of wall panels, a horizontal main bracket having a length; and a plurality of wall panel brackets. Each wall panel bracket is configured for attachment to a corresponding one of the wall panels. Each wall panel bracket is configured to engage the horizontal main bracket so as to hang the corresponding the wall panel while allowing movement of the wall panels in substantially horizontal directions.

Abstract: A wall stud assembly includes first and second elongate stud members and a plurality of connectors. The first elongate stud member includes a back section, a front section substantially parallel to the back section, and two substantially parallel side portions connecting, and extending between, the back and front sections. The parallel side portions comprise engagement extensions extending beyond and forming a receiver portion with the front section. The back section extends beyond the side portions. The second elongate stud member comprises a back wall engaging the front section of the first elongate stud member and two side walls substantially parallel to and extending from the back wall configured to engage the engagement extensions of the first elongate stud member. The second elongate stud member also comprises two wall flanges substantially perpendicular to and extending from the side walls. The plurality of connectors attach the side walls to the engagement sections.

Abstract: A stud for a modular building system. The stud comprises two elongate channel members secured together, with each of the channel members have a generally hat-shaped cross section. The channel members each have a bottom web, and a first and second side web. the side webs extend perpendicularly and upward from opposite sides of the bottom web. The channel members further comprise a first and second flange that extend laterally from the first and second side webs respectively. In one aspect of the invention, each flange comprises a first segment extending generally laterally outward from the upper edge of its respective side web and a second segment folded back upon the first segment and extending back toward the side web. In another aspect of the invention, the second segment overlaps and overlies the underside of the first segment, and the fold or crease between the first and second segments, has a rounded profile and forms a bead at the edge of each flange.
