Abstract
A wall cap for an interior wall of a building structure, the building structure comprising at least one exterior wall and at least one interior wall and a gap formed between the at least one interior wall and the at least one exterior wall. The wall cap comprises at least one material for abating an undesirable physical property of the gap.

A wall cap for an interior partition wall of a building structure, the building structure comprising at least one room having a first side defined at least partially by at least one exterior wall and a second side defined at least partially by at least one interior partition wall, and a gap formed between the at least one interior partition wall and the at least one exterior wall, the wall cap comprising:
- at least one elongated member having a first end configured for attachment to the at least one interior partition wall and a second distal end in juxtaposition with the at least one exterior wall and being spaced from the at least one exterior wall, and having an outer surface extending substantially across the gap, an underside of the elongated member defining a chamber with at least a portion of the interior partition wall;
- and
- at least one material disposed within the chamber having at least one characteristic which abates at least one undesirable physical property of the gap;
- wherein, when the at least one elongated member is mounted in cantilever fashion to a portion of the interior partition wall, such that the elongated member is allowed to move relative to the exterior wall, and substantially fills the gap between the interior partition wall and the corresponding exterior wall, the at least one material abates the at least one undesirable physical property of the gap.
A wall cap for an interior partition wall of a building structure, the building structure comprising at least one exterior wall having at least a portion formed from glass and at least one interior partition wall, and a gap formed between an end of the at least one interior partition wall and the glass portion of the exterior wall, the wall cap comprising:
- at least one elongated member having a first end configured for attachment to the at least one interior partition wall and a second distal end in juxtaposition with the glass portion of the exterior wall and being spaced a distance from the glass portion of the exterior wall, and having an outer surface extending substantially across the gap, an underside of the elongated member defining a chamber with at least a portion of the interior partition wall;
- and
- wherein, the at least one elongated member is mounted in cantilever fashion to a portion of the interior partition wall, such that the elongated member is allowed to move relative to the glass portion of the exterior wall, and substantially fills the gap between the end of the interior partition wall and the corresponding glass portion of the exterior wall.
A wall cap for an interior partition wall of a building structure, the building structure comprising at least one room defined by at least one exterior wall separating the room from an exterior of the building structure and at least one interior partition wall, and a gap formed between the at least one interior partition wall and the at least one exterior wall, the wall cap comprising:
- at least one elongated member having a first end configured for attachment to the at least one interior partition wall and a second distal end in juxtaposition with the at least one exterior wall and being spaced from the at least one exterior wall, and having an outer surface extending substantially across the gap, an underside of the elongated member defining a chamber with at least a portion of the interior partition wall;
- and
- at least one material disposed within the chamber having at least one characteristic which abates at least one undesirable physical property of the gap;
- wherein, when the at least one elongated member is mounted in cantilever fashion to a portion of the interior partition wall, such that the elongated member is allowed to move relative to the exterior wall, and substantially fills the gap between the interior partition wall and the corresponding exterior wall, the at least one material abates the at least one undesirable physical property of the gap.
