Abstract: A jamb assembly for a door frame includes an elongate jamb channel defining an interior space, an elongate cap member having a pair of spaced apart opposing in-turned portions, and a clip for securing the cap member to the jamb channel. The clip includes a base, a pair of opposed spaced apart resilient tabs extending from the base, and a pair of spaced apart retaining portions extending from the base, each retaining portion comprising a proximate resilient portion and a distal wing portion. When the base is located in the interior space, the tabs abut ridges that extend partially into the interior space, and the resilient portions are biased to engage the ridges. The resilient portions of the clip are configured to deform to allow the wing portions to pass between in-turned portions of the cap member and are biased to engage the in-turned portions.

Abstract: Disclosed is a connecting system for connecting wall panels to the support frame, and more particularly to the rigid corner support posts of a support frame, of a modular building unit. The connecting system includes a modular bracket assembly and is configured so that two modular connecting brackets attach to each corner vertical support column, which modular brackets are configured to receive the vertical edge of a wall panel. The brackets themselves are configured for easy replacement and/or adjustment through minimal effort, are fully symmetrical to allow use of bracket elements at varied locations, and may be replaced or adjusted particularly without removing, altering, or otherwise disturbing the corner vertical support column of the frame of the modular building unit.

Abstract: A subassembly is positioned transverse in between two adjacent roof elements or wall elements. The subassembly includes a bracket; a construction element; and a fastener securing the bracket to the construction element. An extension tab of the bracket extends over a top surface of a roof element or a wall element. Multiple ones of the brackets installed in a roof element or a wall element define a line of compression blocking.

Abstract: A virtual connector post (or customized wall module intersection) includes a variable angle connector assembled with a plurality of position retention mechanisms and a corresponding plurality of connector interfaces of corresponding wall modules. The virtual connector post can be varied for virtually any shape or design simply by varying the shape of the variable angle connector(s) used therein. In particular, the variable angle connector can be arbitrarily shaped so that the ultimately joined wall modules form a corresponding, non-standard angle, such as non-right angles between wall modules in a given partition. The variable angle connectors and corresponding position retention mechanisms can be securely fastened between multiple wall modules at any number of arbitrary points along the length of a partition.

Abstract: A structural post arrangement and cooperating clamp assembly positioning and supporting related furniture components, such as beams. The clamping assembly includes a split clamping collar which surrounds the post and defines upper and lower rims for engagement with top and bottom jaws as coupled to a furniture component.

Abstract: An intrusion-prevention enclosure comprising a plurality of modular panels, which can be mutually associated in an orderly and predefined manner so as to provide a barrier structure, comprising a plurality of elastically deformable U-shaped connectors, which can be associated with at least one pair of adjacent uprights of at least two converging panels, in order to arrange the panels mutually adjacent and lock them stably and detachably.

Abstract: System for connecting profile elements includes a separate clamping element having a clamping plate and at least one protrusion and a separate locking element having a base plate and at least one protrusion. In an assembled state, the locking element butts against that side of the profile elements located opposite the clamping element, such that protrusions of the locking element and of the clamping element are directed toward one another. A device is utilizes to clamp the clamping element and the locking element together such that, in the assembled state, the profile elements are clamped in between the clamping element and the locking element. The device being guided centrally between the profile elements.

Abstract: The invention concerns a permanently functional gap seal on structures, in particular building structures, which ensures a reliable seal against penetrating moisture, this being achieved in that the cover layer has a profile which can be adapted to an installation situation over a joint or on an inner or outer corner and has a central part and side wings disposed on both sides of the central part, and in that at least the side wings have contact surfaces for contacting a sealant.

Abstract: A modular system for assembling a storage unit is provided which includes a plurality of panels and different connectors. The system allows for subdividing spaces which may feature walls, floors, ceilings, etc. at varying angles or in areas having irregular contours. Additionally, the connectors are simple recesses and protrusions which allow for easy assembly and disassembly of the storage unit.

Abstract: A wall panel including a rectangular frame, a pair of wall members and a thin decorative sheet covering the wall members. The frame includes two spaced apart, generally parallel vertical frame members and spaced apart, generally parallel horizontal lower and upper frame members. The horizontal frame members are connected to the vertical frame members at opposite ends thereof to form the rectangular frame. In one embodiment, each of the frame members includes a core member and a pair of sidewall members attached to opposite sides of the core member. The wall members are attached to the sidewalls on opposing sides of the frame members. In another embodiment, inner wall members are attached to the opposing sides of the frame members, and outer wall members are thereafter attached to the inner wall member. A decorative sheet covers the outer surface of each outer wall member. The wall panels are connected to each other with a connector member.

Abstract: An improved wall stud assembly used to form a prefabricated partition or wall assembled within the interior space of a warehouse factory or other building structure, and comprising first and second elongate stud members, each having a joining part and a panel receiving flange disposed along each longitudinal side of the joining part. Preferably each of the joining parts of the stud members include a plurality of punched holes and extruded holes formed therein and relatively oriented to allow interconnecting fasteners to be applied to the stud member from either side of the stud assembly. The stud members are assembled so that joining parts are disposed in spaced, substantially confronting relation to one another and with the punched holes on the first stud member generally aligned with the extruded holes of the second stud member, such that at least one fastener element extend initially through a punched hole on the first stud member and subsequently into one of the extruded holes on the second stud member.

Abstract: The present invention is an improved modular panel arrangement for the assembly of a first panel to a second modular panel or a portion of a permanent wall. The arrangement comprises a modular panel of generally rectilinear configuration, having at least one edge thereon. A first corner block is attached to the edge of the panel. An elongated tensile connecting rod is pivotally attached to a pivot hinge of the first corner block, the rod having a lug disposed transversely across at least one end thereof. A second corner block is attached to the second panel or portion of the wall. The second block has at least one cammed locking finger on a base thereof, wherein the rod is swingable about the pivot hinge on the first corner block to permit the lug thereon to engage a cam surface on the second corner block to lockably secure and align the edge of the first modular panel with the second modular panel or wall. The tensile rod may be adjustable to accommodate variations in spacing of the panels and/or wall.
