Abstract

An Outboard Insulation Mounting System and products for the purpose of providing a continuously insulated (CI) wall utilizing a dual nailing flanged stud, sub-girts with multiple aligned flanges and holes, a fastener for penetrating the multiple surfaces of the stud and sub-girt for the purpose of transferring cantilevered stresses to the screw from more than one direction, compounding the load capacity of the cantilevered screw. Rigid insulation installed between the studs and sub-girts may be compressed and assist with the load capacity of the cantilevered fasteners, as well as being supported by these fasteners along with any attached façade panels or façade systems to the sub-girts.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A system and devices for attaching insulation to a building, comprising a roll formed stud having: a first support leg, said first support leg terminating in a first return for contacting sheathing; a web, said web being contiguous with said support leg and extending from said first return; a second return, said second return being contiguous with said first return, and extending from said web; a second support leg, said second support leg being contiguous with said web; a double return, said double return being contiguous with and in dose proximity to said second return, and said double return terminating at said web. 
     
     
         2 . The device of  claim 1  in which said second return, said second support, and said double return are configured on both terminations of said web, replacing said first support and said first return. 
     
     
         3 . The device of  claim 1  which further comprises at least one tab, said tab extending from said web and angularly positioned against said double return to prevent said double return from further movement. 
     
     
         4 . The device of  claim 1  which further comprises a bend, said bend having holes, and said holes being configured linearly to allow easy forming of said bend. 
     
     
         5 . The device of  claim 1  which further comprises a fastener, said fastener penetrating said second return and said double return in sequence so that said fastener is positionally fixed. 
     
     
         6 . The device of  claim 1  which further comprises at least one aperture in the web. 
     
     
         7 . The device of  claim 1  comprising said second return and said double return creating an anti-rotation means for said fastener via friction from two locations and counteracting forces between said second return and double return caused from the insertion of said fastener into them. 
     
     
         8 . A formed sub-girt having: a first return, said first return terminating in an arm, said arm extending from said first return; a second return, said second return contiguous with said first return and extending from said arm; a support leg, said support leg extending from said second return. 
     
     
         9 . The device of  claim 2  in which said support leg variably attaches to an adjustable girt via a first fastener. 
     
     
         10 . The device of  claim 2  which further comprises holes, said holes aligned within said first return and said second return, and said alignment substantially perpendicular to said first return and said second return, and said holes for placement of a second fastener. 
     
     
         11 . The device of  claim 2  which further comprises a spacer, said spacer fixed between said first return and said second return, said spacer creating anti-rotation of said second fastener via friction 
     
     
         12 . The device of  claim 2  wherein said second fastener is positionally fixed between said first return and said second return. 
     
     
         13 . A system of attachment with said stud of  claim 1  in combination with said sub-girt of  claim 2  having: said second fastener of  claim 2  inserted into said holes of said sub-girt providing a first positional fixing within said holes of said sub-girt, wherein said second fastener further extends and penetrates through said second return and said double return of said stud providing a second positional fixing. 
     
     
         14 . The device of  claim 3  in which first positional fixing of  claim 5  and second positional fixing of  claim 12  work together to further positionally fix said second fastener, wherein contradicting forces on said stud and said sub-girt cause said second fastener to try to bend in opposite directions, compounding a cantilevered load capacity. 
     
     
         15 . The device of  claim 3  in which first anti-rotation of  claim 11  and second anti-rotation of  claim 7  work together to prevent said second fastener rotation.
