Appl. No.:

12/660021

Inventors:

Steven Traulsen - Palm Coast FL, US
Robert McClellan - Palm Coast FL, US

International Classification:

E04B 1/02
E04B 2/82
E04B 1/38
E04H 1/00

US Classification:

521261, 52251, 52699, 522363

Abstract:

Prefabricated reinforced stackable concrete panels are provided for forming walls and roofs of multi-story buildings. Each panel has an embedded grid of vertical and horizontal steel rods secured together where they cross. The grid is anchored by brackets welded to a base plate along the bottom of each panel, and to another plate along the top. Leveling means (screw jack devices) are anchored to the top plate. At ground level the base plate of each prefabricated panel is welded to an elongated plate embedded in the concrete foundation. A second story is formed by stacking panels on a floor pan anchored to the leveling means of the first story panels, and a pour of concrete completes the inter-story floor, embedding the leveling means. Successive stories and roof panels may be added and anchored to the stories below in the same manner, creating an exceptionally strong structure of up to six to eight stories, firmly anchored to the foundation by the tying together of the reinforcing grids of the stacked panels. The interconnections of the reinforcement grids, the inter-story floors, roof and foundation create a steel skeleton analogous to the steel skeletons of modern construction of skyscrapers.

Inventors:

Steven Traulsen - Holly Hill FL, US
Robert McClellan - Palm Coast FL, US

International Classification:

E04B 2/88

US Classification:

52474

Abstract:

A prefabricated curtain-wall system comprises an assembly of reinforced concrete panels. The reinforcement of the concrete is provided by a grid of horizontal and vertical metal rods, tied together where they cross. Connection between two adjacent panels utilizes an external bracket with two bolts, each bolt mating with a nut protruding from a slotted bracket embedded in each of two adjacent panels The embedded brackets have eyelets for passage of a rod of the reinforcing grid. The lowermost panels of the system are anchored to the building foundation, thus the load of the entire curtain wall system and the embedded reinforcing grid can be transmitted to the foundation. The system incorporates means of adjusting the fitting together of panels to compensate for minor deviations in the dimensions and elevations of construction elements.

Assignee:

Belden Communications Company - Wilmington DE

International Classification:

H03H 200

US Classification:

333 12

Abstract:

An apparatus for reducing electromagnetic interference associated with a signal-conducting cable includes a ferrite bead and a one-piece molded encasement covering the ferrite bead. The encasement includes a number of ribs located within a longitudinal aperture of the ferrite bead. The ribs protrude radially inward to secure the apparatus to the cable and to coaxially align the cable within the aperture. In a preferred embodiment, the encasement and ribs are integrally formed from a resilient material.

Appl. No.:

9/089678

Inventors:

Robert B. McClellan - Palatka FL

International Classification:

E04B 138

US Classification:

525871

Abstract:

A prefabricated panel and assembly of such for forming walls and roofs of buildings is formed with interior reinforcing rods, U-shaped anchor members embedded on the edges of the panel and secured members of mechanical fasteners embedded on opposing edges of adjacent panels, where the reinforcing rods embedded in the concrete body also pass through the anchors and the secured fastener members. An unsecured fastener member is connected to the secured member and tightened to join adjacent panels.
