    摘要: A containerized, transportable, pre-engineered, pre-fabricated, pre-assembled, adjustable, structural module and structural module system and method is disclosed, having one or more beams to provide desired construction dimensions; and a first beam of the one or more beams, the first beam having deflection reduction properties. The structural module is not supported by shoring when the structural fixture is placed for construction. The structural modules may be expanded and contracted to vary the height, length, and width of the structural module based on building specifications or desired construction dimensions. A second beam having deflection reduction properties has the same orientation as the first beam when the structural module is placed for construction. One or more sheets are affixed to at least one of the one or more beams, wherein the one or more sheets provide a surface for concrete or building material to be poured on the one or more sheets.

    摘要: A lateral bracing system incudes a frame and a brace assembly. The brace assembly may include at least one diagonal brace affixed to the frame by gusset plates. The diagonal brace may be affixed to the gusset plates at one or both ends by a yield link assembly. The yield link assembly may include various numbers of stacked fuse plates, depending on the required design strength of the lateral bracing system. Each fuse plate may include first and second ends, bolted respectively to the diagonal brace and gusset plate, and a central yield region including one or more mechanical fuses. The mechanical fuses are configured to distribute the inelastic strains throughout the yield region.

    摘要: An apparatus, such as a beam pocket, connects a beam to a wall, such as a concrete wall. The apparatus includes a frame having a plurality of panels that cooperate to define a pocket of various heights. The apparatus includes a clamp within the pocket. The clamp is configured to secure an end of the beam at a position within the pocket. The clamp is further configured to selectively define the position relative to the frame. The apparatus further includes at least one anchor extending from the clamp and away from the pocket for mounting with the wall.

    摘要: Disclosed is a load bearing system for a residential structure. The load bearing system comprises two or more structural load bearing columns, at least one beam extending between and connected with respect to in-use upper ends of the two or more structural load bearing columns, and at least one cladding panel mounted to extend between a foundation of the residential structure and the at least one beam. The columns are mounted to a foundation of the residential structure in spaced relation to the or each other column and comprise a periphery defined by hollow-section members and one or more internal bracing elements extending between the hollow-section members.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present invention relate to a structural frame member which includes a brace member that is used to absorb energy when the structural frame is subjected to loadings such as seismic, wind and gravity loads. The brace member is coupled to a restraining member that increases the buckling capacity of the brace member so that the brace member has approximately the same load axial capacity in compression as in tension. Embodiments of the invention also relate to the design, construction and assembly of the connection of the brace member that couples the brace member to a gusset plate which is coupled to the beam and column in the structural frame.
