GENERAL BUILDING CONSTRUCTIONS; WALLS, e.g. PARTITIONS; ROOFS; FLOORS; CEILINGS; INSULATION OR OTHER PROTECTION OF BUILDINGS (border constructions of opening in walls, floors or ceilings E06B1/00; )

Description

E04B encompasses the structural and protective components forming the primary envelope and interior divisions of buildings. This subclass covers walls (including partition walls), roofing systems, floor construction, ceiling assemblies, and thermal or acoustic insulation materials and methods applied to building structures. The classification includes both the structural design and material composition of these building elements, as well as protective systems against weathering, moisture, fire, and noise. Related specialized building systems (such as doors, windows, or HVAC installations) are classified elsewhere in the E04 building category.
