Patent ID: 7765748

Claim:
In a system including a plurality of types of modular structural components for construction of structures, each structural component including at least one of a plurality of structural elements, a curbing component to prevent the entry and escape of flowable materials into and out of the structure along a ground surface, the curbing component comprising: a sealing barrier positionable along the ground surface and parallel to a wall of the structure and forming a sealed barrier with the ground surface to prevent the passage of the flowable materials along the ground surface and beneath the sealing barrier, including a rigid barrier forming a barrier against the passage of the flowable material, and a sealer mounted on a lower surface of the rigid barrier and forming a seal between the rigid barrier and the ground surface to prevent the passage of flowable material under the rigid barrier, a curbing bracket for adjustably mounting the sealing barrier to a lower portion of the wall, including an adjustable bracket for support and vertical positioning of the sealing barrier with respect to the ground surface, including an adjustable support having a barrier bracket on a lower end thereof for attachment of the rigid barrier thereto, and an adjustable mounting for receiving an upper end of the adjustable support and adjustably determining a downward extension of the adjustable support from the adjustable mounting, and a mounting bracket extending downwards and outwards from the wall for mounting the adjustable bracket to the lower part of the wall, including a main support extending downwards and outwards from the wall, a mounting connector for mounting the main support to a structural element of the wall, and a mounting plate extending downwards from the main support and having a quick release connection for supporting the adjustable mounting in either of two selectable vertical positions with respect to the mounting plate.
