Benefits of technology

This patent describes a curved wall system for buildings that can meet certain standards or laws. These systems include a curved bottom track and an upright header track. A curved header track is formed by two side walls joined together at top ends. Studs are placed inside these rails to support the weight of the house. There also have holes in the panels used to connect them to the studs. Fastening tools like bolts are inserted through these holes to secure the panels to the studs. Overall, this design allows for efficient construction and installation of houses while meeting relevant safety requirements.

Problems solved by technology

This patent describes a technical problem where current curved wall constructions require expensive materials and complicated methods to install them onto a building. There is also a need for new and better curved wall systems that can meet contemporary fire code requirements without requiring costly modifications.

Embodiment Construction

[0019]Referring now to the drawings wherein like reference numerals are used to designate like features and, more particularly, to FIGS. 1-10, the present invention in one embodiment is directed to a curved (radius) wall structure 10 that is easy to construct / install on-site within a building (not shown) and that may optionally be fire-rated to comply with applicable fire codes. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the curved wall structure 10 is an assembly that comprises a curved footer track 12; a curved header track 14 confronting and vertically spaced apart from the curved footer track 12; a plurality of studs 16 having upper and lower end portions 18, 20, (wherein the studs 16 are vertically positioned between the spaced apart and confronting header and footer tracks 12, 14 such that the lower end portions 20 are received into the footer track 12 and the upper end portions 18 are received into the curved header track 14); and a corrugated curved wall panel 22 having a plurality of vertic

Abstract

A curved wall structure is disclosed herein that comprises a curved footer track; a curved header track confronting and vertically spaced apart from the curved footer track; a plurality of studs having upper and lower end portions (wherein the studs are vertically positioned between the spaced apart and confronting header and footer tracks such that the lower end portions are received into the footer track and the upper end portions are received into the curved header track); and a corrugated curved wall panel having a plurality of vertically spaced apart grooves. Mineral wool (or other suitable insulation material) may be positioned between the plurality of studs and adjacent to the corrugated curved wall panel. In addition, a heat-expandable intumescent material strip may be positioned along a top portion of at least one of the downwardly extending sidewalls of the curved header track and adjacent to the first curved wallboard.
