60 results about "Attic" patented technology

An attic (sometimes referred to as a loft) is a space found directly below the pitched roof of a house or other building; an attic may also be called a sky parlor or a garret. Because attics fill the space between the ceiling of the top floor of a building and the slanted roof, they are known for being awkwardly shaped spaces with exposed rafters and difficult-to-reach corners.

Wall building system

A wall building system includes panels for walls, floors, ceilings, roofs, eaves, and lofts that positively couple together via one or more couplers. The panels may include an insulating core. The one or more couplers incorporate features for receiving plumbing, vents, drains, electrical, coax, CAT5, HVAC, and any other utilities or technology. The panels are designed such that the utilities are concealed until an electrical outlet, drain or water is required, at which time the panel is cut to expose the one or more couplers, which are subsequently cut to reveal a hollow cavity within. The system is aesthetically pleasing and reduces construction time considerably. The system is also extremely energy efficient, fireproof, soundproof, insect proof, virus proof, resists hurricane force winds, is EMP proof, fallout proof, can support a heavy snow load, and is faster to build with and structurally stronger than other construction methods.

Engineered wood vented soffit with integrated fire-ember and snow screen

PendingUS20250354385A1Roof coveringFire rescueProduction lineEmber
A pre-vented soffit panel with an integrated screen to exclude wind-blown embers from entering the attic space. Vent holes are created in the soffit, and a screen is integrated therewith, in the factory or on a production line. The screen material is fire-resistant. The pre-vented soffit panel with integrated screen can then be packaged and shipped to a job or construction site, and installed instead of, or in place of, a prior-art soffit panel. The integrated soffit screen also prevents the intrusion of wind-blown snow and several types of insects. This integrated solution provides for more rapid and cost-effective job site installation without the need to perform costly retrofitting of metal vents into prior-art soffit panels.
