| 052710000 | Elongated supported track type | 19 |
| 20090178363 | EXTERIOR WALL CONSTRUCTION PRODUCT - This invention addresses slotted tracks, in particular slotted tracks for an exterior wall application. In exterior wall framing, the exterior wall sheathing is required to have a horizontal gap at or near the floor line for anticipated vertical movement between the floors. To accommodate orthogonal movement of the studs relative to the track, a plurality of slots are located along the flanges of the track. An area for exterior sheathing attachment is created by leaving the upper portion of the flange solid for sheathing attachment and providing slots on the lower portion of the flange. Embodiments may include elongate reinforcing grooves on the slotted track's flanges and/or web, tabs for supporting and positioning exterior sheathing elements, connector elements for connecting the track to another surface, and second slots along the length of the web of the track to allow for limited drift movement of the track. | 07-16-2009 |

The bracket is configured to receive a portion of the deck or boardwalk system between said upper and lower portions. The bracket further includes a fastener extending between the upper and lower portions and configured to urge the upper and lower portions toward each other to thereby press against the portion of the deck or boardwalk system therebetween to secure the bracket to the portion of the deck or boardwalk system. | 08-29-2013 |
| 20130219825 | CURBLESS MULTIPLE SKYLIGHT AND SMOKE VENT SYSTEM - The invention provides a side rail for attachment to elevated rib structure of a metal panel roof whereby the rib structure underlies and supports the side rail and any load being supported by the side rail. First and second side rails can be attached to next adjacent rib structures, thereby supporting the load from first and second next adjacent ones of the rib structures. End closures can extend across the space between such first and second side rails at opposing ends of the side rails, thereby closing off the openings between the ends of the side rails and providing a closed support structure extending about the encompassed space and closing off laterally-directed access to the enclosed space. | 08-29-2013 |
| 20130283725 | CURBLESS MULTIPLE SKYLIGHT AND SMOKE VENT SYSTEM - The invention provides a system for installing a roof penetrating structure to a metal roof, the system comprising: a) a rail and closure structure adapted to be supported by adjacent rib elevations of said roof; b) a skylight adapted to be supported on the rail and closure structure; and c) a support member for sealing a cut away portion of the rib structure to divert water away from the rail and closure structure. | 10-31-2013 |

| 20140115997 | Exterior Wall Assembly Systems - An attachment strip for attaching lath to a wall and a system for attaching lath to a wall with increased water resistive characteristics. The attachment strip has protruding teeth on an attachment plate that holds the lath in place, and a mounting plate that secures the lath furring strip against the wall and framing. In addition, since attachment strip, instead of the lath directly, is secured to the sheathing, fewer mounting devices are needed compared to when a lath is directly secured to a sheathing, where substantially more mounting devices would be needed. Thus in this arrangement, fewer penetrations are created when installing the lath. Additional water resistive features, such insulation layers, and a drainage space surrounded by two water resistive barriers, create space that not only increases insulation, but protects the inner layers of a wall from damage. | 05-01-2014 |
| 20140174022 | ROOF TILE CROWN SUPPORT - A device for securing a roof tile crown or cap to a roof ridge or roof hip is described. The roof tile crown support can be easily and quickly secured to an existing roofing structure. The device contains a main body defined by a plurality of opposing side walls, a top wall, and a pair of leg plate support structures, attached or integrally formed to each of the opposing side walls. Within the interior region of the roof tile crown support, a support structure is secured therein. To aid in shipping, a plurality of like-shaped roof tile crown support units can be adapted to nest within other like shaped roof tile crown supports. | 06-26-2014 |
| 20140250825 | CAST-IN ANCHOR SYSTEM - A cast-in anchor system for anchoring objects to concrete structures. The preferred system uses an extruded cast-in anchor and an extruded bolt retainer. The cast-in anchor is embedded within concrete with a face left exposed. The bolt retainer has a bolt inserted through it and is placed within an anchor channel on the exposed face of the cast-in anchor. The bolt retainer allows for use of an industry-standard bolt and prevents the bolt from rotating once the bolt-head is seated against it. The cast-in anchor and the bolt are positioned along the length of the anchor channel, with a threaded portion of the bolt extending out of the anchor channel. A workpiece is placed over the threaded portion of the bolt and a nut is tightened. Tightening the nut causes locking surfaces on the bolt retainer to engage with corresponding surfaces on the anchor channel which prevents the bolt retainer from exiting the anchor channel. | 09-11-2014 |
| 20140260068 | SUPPORT STRUCTURES ON ROOFS - Metal panel roofs, and load support structures for supporting loads on such roofs. Side rails provide primary support for loads on such roofs. The side rails can be fabricated from sheet metal or can be extruded. A side rail includes a standing seam cavity which is lowered, and covers, the standing seam. Side walls of the standing seam cavity. An upstanding web extends up from the cavity, and lower shoulders may extend laterally, optionally downwardly, from the walls which define the cavity, on either one side, or both sides, of the cavity. Building roof insulation can extend up through an aperture in the roof, surrounded by such load support structure, and extend up to the top of the side rail, thus providing a thermal break between the load support structure elements and the space surrounded by the load support structure. | 09-18-2014 |
| 20140318074 | ANCHOR RAIL - An anchor channel is provided, including a channel element that has a plurality of identical fastening points and a plurality of identical anchor elements that are attached to the fastening points on the channel element.
