Abstract
A construction accessory for use with a construction panel includes a flange having an inner surface adapted to face the construction panel and an outer surface opposite the inner surface. The flange further includes at least one perforation extending through the flange between the inner surface and the outer surface and a depression in the inner surface. The depression is in communication with said at least one perforation.
Claims56
A construction accessory for use with a construction panel, the accessory comprising:
- first flange having an inner surface adapted to face the construction panel and an outer surface opposite the inner surface, the first flange including at least one perforation extending through the flange between the inner surface and the outer surface;
- and
- a first depression in the Inner surface, wherein the depression is in communication with said at least one perforation, wherein the construction accessory is configured for use with construction fluid materials and wherein the first depression is sized to permit flow of construction fluid materials therewithin.
A construction accessory for use with a construction panel and construction fluids, the accessory comprising:
- a first flange having a length, an inner surface adapted to face the construction panel and to extend opposite the construction panel and an outer surface opposite the inner surface, the flange including a first plurality of elongate channels extending along the length of the flange in the inner surface, each of the first plurality of channels being sized to facilitate flow of construction fluids and a second plurality of elongate channels extending in the outer surface.
A construction structure comprising:
- a construction panel;
- a first flange having an inner surface opposite the construction panel facing the construction panel and an outer surface opposite the inner surface;
- a plurality of elongate channels extending along the length of the first flange in at least one of the inner surface and the outer surface, each of the plurality of channels having a generally rectangular cross-section.
A construction panel support for use with a construction panel, the construction panel support comprising:
- a back flange;
- a bottom flange extending non-parallel from the back flange;
- and
- a front flange extending non-parallel from the bottom flange, wherein the back flange, the bottom flange and the front flange form a cavity sized to receive a construction panel, wherein the front flange has an inner surface facing the back flange and adapted to face the panel, an outer surface opposite the inner surface and a plurality of perforations extending between the inner surface and the outer surface, and wherein the inner surface includes a plurality of elongate channels, each of the plurality of channels communicating with at least one of the plurality of perforations.
A construction accessory for use with a construction panel and construction fluids, the accessory comprising:
- a first flange;
- a second flange extending non-parallel from the first flange;
- and
- a third flange extending non-parallel from the first flange, the third flange having a length, an inner surface adapted to face the construction panel and to extend opposite the construction panel and an outer surface opposite the inner surface, wherein the first flange, the second flange and the third flange form a cavity sized to receive the construction panel;
- and
- at least one ridge extending above the first flange and configured to extend below the construction panel and to support the construction panel above the first flange, wherein the third flange includes a first plurality of elongate channels extending in the inner surface above the at least one ridge.
A construction structure comprising:
- a construction panel;
- a first flange having an inner surface facing the construction panel and an outer surface opposite the inner surface, the first flange Including at least one perforation extending through the first flange between the inner surface and the outer surface;
- a first depression in the inner surface, wherein the first depression is in communication with said at least one perforation;
- and
- a coating adjacent the outer surface and extending through the at least one perforation.
