Corrugated furring strips are used on the outer side of an exterior insulation layer in an exterior wall construction. The corrugated furring strips support a final cladding layer at an offstanding position from the insulation, thereby providing a rainscreen. The corrugated furring strips are fastened to the framework of the wall through the exterior insulation layer. Optional bridging members shaped to conformingly mate with lands and grooves of the corrugated furring straps cooperate therewith to define a support grid with improved load capacity for heavier cladding materials and more fastening location options. The insulation layer is free of any thermal bridges other than the insulation-penetrating fasteners used to support the furring and optional bridges. Thermally insulative washers isolate the furring and optional bridges from the fasteners to further improve the insulating effect of the wall.

A bracing device has a supporting module and a restraining element mounted around the supporting module to provide a restraining-supporting effect to the supporting module. The supporting module has at least one supporting element. The at least one supporting element is elongated and has an axial segment and two connecting heads. The axial segment has at least one concave edge and at least one loading section. The connecting heads are respectively formed on two connecting ends of the axial segment. The restraining element has at least one pair of side boards, two restraining boards and at least one viewing hole. Each one of the restraining boards has an I-shaped cross section, an inner panel, an outer panel and a connecting panel. The at least one viewing hole is formed through the restraining element and aligns along the at least one concave edge of the axial segment.

The present invention is a technology concerning hexahedron units, and discloses the inventive novel frame structures and frame joint technology for facilitating the assembly of different units. The inventive hexahedron units may be assembled to fit location conditions so as to construct a building regardless of the size and shape of the land, and also disassembled so as to be removed to another place for construction, thus providing high reusability.

A connector in the form of a modified top hat section for securely attaching a building panel to a support member is provided with a guide to assist in accurately locating the fasteners used to attach the connector to the support member with respect to the support member and to guide movement of the fastener as the fastener is rotatingly driven through the connector into the support member to maintain the correct orientation of the fastener to securely attach the connector to the support member. The guide can have a multitude of different forms such as holes, perforations, slots, notches, grooves, lines of weakness and be continuous or in spaced apart relationship to each other. The advantage of the guide is to reduce installation time and effort as well as allowing the top hat section to be securely attached to the support by the fastener having clearance between the strengtheners of the connector and the tapering side wall.

A wall stud which includes opposed mounting surfaces for receiving wall panels, a web is disposed between the opposed mounting surfaces, and the stud has first and second ends. The first end is provided on a first stud member and the second end is provided on a second stud member. The first and second stud members are moveable with respect to one another to provide for adjustment of the effective length of the wall stud.

Fatigue is prevented in a solid rotary shaft by maintaining it devoid of inflection points and operating it in a pair of bearings to prevent buckling of the shaft because of the bending or vibrating action of applied loads which tend to induce tensile forces in the shaft leading to fatigue failure. This is accomplished by providing at least one longitudinal bore in the shaft and anchoring a closely fitted tensioned tendon in the bore in a manner placing the shaft solely in compression to a degree sufficient to neutralize substantially the tensile stresses induced in the shaft during rotation for maintaining the shaft devoid of reversals of curvature and preventing the creation of an inflection point, the close fit of the tendon in the bore confining the tendon against lateral movement relative to the bore and preventing an inflection point in the tendon. Preferably, there are several bores in the shaft arranged adjacent the periphery thereof, each bore having a closely fitted tensioned tendon anchored therein, the tendons being collectively effective for maintaining the shaft in compression and preventing the creation of an inflection point in the shaft. The tension of the tendons can be varied for controlling the oscillation of the shaft.

A seismic axial dampener device is constructed of a multitude of composite or metallic conical compression discs and an exo-structure capable of dampening both tension and compression cycles of a building structure due to a seismic, explosion, or wind event. The dampener reacts and dampens the loading in both tension and compression along the axis of the cross brace in linear-elastic bending, creating internal hoop stress, and not through shear of the dampener device.

A bracket for securing a plurality of support members for a shipping crate assembly is also disclosed. The bracket forms a corner of the shipping crate assembly. The bracket includes first and second non-identical plates. The first and second non-identical plates are joined along a connection line. The first and second non-identical plates extend perpendicularly from each other. A foot is secured to the first and second non-identical plates, the foot being secured along the connection line.
