Abstract

A construction element can comprise a top portion, comprising a top portion region and a top portion groove located below the top portion region. The top portion groove can be configured to receive a wall material within the top portion groove. The construction element can also comprise a middle portion coupled to the top portion. The construction element can further comprise a bottom portion coupled to the middle portion and comprising a bottom portion groove configured to receive a floor material within the bottom portion groove, a bottom portion bend coupled to and located below the bottom portion groove, and a bottom portion region coupled to the bottom portion bend. Other embodiments are also provided.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A construction element comprising:
 a top portion comprising:
 a top portion region; and 
 a top portion groove located below the top portion region and configured to receive a wall material within the top portion groove; 
   a middle portion coupled to the top portion; and   a bottom portion coupled to the middle portion and comprising:
 a bottom portion groove configured to receive a floor material within the bottom portion groove; 
 a bottom portion bend coupled to and located below the bottom portion groove; and 
 a bottom portion region coupled to the bottom portion bend. 
   
     
     
         2 . The construction element of  claim 1 , wherein the top portion groove is approximately co-planar or approximately parallel to the bottom portion groove. 
     
     
         3 . The construction element of  claim 1 , wherein the floor material is a flexible planar material. 
     
     
         4 . The construction element of  claim 1 , wherein the bottom portion bend is located between the bottom portion groove and the bottom portion region. 
     
     
         5 . The construction element of  claim 1 , wherein a plane of the top portion region is approximately parallel to a plane of the middle portion. 
     
     
         6 . The construction element of  claim 5 , wherein a plane of the bottom portion region is approximately perpendicular to the plane of the top portion region and the plane of the middle portion. 
     
     
         7 . The construction element of  claim 1 , wherein the top portion region and the bottom portion region are on a same plane. 
     
     
         8 . The construction element of  claim 7 , wherein the same plane is approximately parallel to the middle portion. 
     
     
         9 . The construction element of  claim 1 , wherein the bottom portion region is approximately perpendicular to the middle portion. 
     
     
         10 . The construction element of  claim 1 , wherein the bottom portion region is approximately perpendicular to the top portion region. 
     
     
         11 . A method comprising manufacturing:
 a top portion comprising:
 a top portion region; and 
 a top portion groove located below the top portion region and configured to receive a wall material within the top portion groove; 
   a middle portion coupled to the top portion; and   a bottom portion coupled to the middle portion and comprising:
 a bottom portion groove configured to receive a floor material within the bottom portion groove; 
 a bottom portion bend coupled to and located below the bottom portion groove; and 
 a bottom portion region coupled to the bottom portion bend. 
   
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein the top portion groove is approximately co-planar or approximately parallel to the bottom portion groove. 
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein the floor material is a flexible planar material. 
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein the bottom portion bend is located between the bottom portion groove and the bottom portion region. 
     
     
         15 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein a plane of the top portion region is approximately parallel to a plane of the middle portion. 
     
     
         16 . The method of  claim 15 , wherein a plane of the bottom portion region is approximately perpendicular to the plane of the top portion region and the plane of the middle portion. 
     
     
         17 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein the top portion region and the bottom portion region are on a same plane. 
     
     
         18 . The method of  claim 17 , wherein the same plane is approximately parallel to the middle portion. 
     
     
         19 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein the bottom portion region is approximately perpendicular to the middle portion. 
     
     
         20 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein the bottom portion region is approximately perpendicular to the top portion region.
