Abstract

Abstract:

A compression member (4) integrated in a heat-insulating construction element (3) for projecting building structures (2) comprises at least one rod-shaped member of a compression-resistant material, which member, owing to its slender shape, is capable of elastically or resiliently following temperature-induced longitudinal movements of the projecting building structure relative to the building (1). The rod-shaped members may have a round or angular cross-section, and they may be positioned separately or in bundles. These members may terminate at the adjoining concrete surfaces, optionally at special pressure or compression plates, or they may be anchored in the adjoining concrete structures.

Description

Lo Z

The present invention relates to a compression member for transmitting compressive forces in a heat-insulating construction element for projecting building structures, with said construction element comprising an elongated insulation body of thermally insulating material and including reinforcing elements which extend substantially transversely of the insulating body and protrude laterally from the latter, which insulation body has integrated therein the compression member or a plurality of compression members formed of a compression-resistant material.

In buildings having projecting wall structures, such as, for example, balconies, Lagos, external landings or stages, house entrance panels or the like, in addition to undesirable heat dissipation due to the production of cold bridges, there arises the further problem that the projecting building parts or structures which, in part, have their front ends supported on columns or pillars erected outside the building, and the directly joining wall structures of the building are subject to different longitudinal expansion motions in response to temperature differentials. This may have a detrimental Z5 effect particularly in the case of multi-story buildings, and may result in cracks and other damage to the building.

German Patent 30 05 571 shows to be known a construction element for thermal insulation in buildings, which element, for the solution to these problems, is integrated in the insulation body as a connecting or joining core element, and which has dimensions conformed to the cross-sectional area of the insulating body.
In this compression element, the risk exists that the opposite sides of this member adhere through a rough surface to the concrete of the wall structure within the building, such as the intermediate ceiling (panel) on the one hand, end to the concrete of -the projecting building structure on the other hand, thereby preventing relative movement from taking place. When the projecting building parts or structures move relative to the building wall in vertical or even horizontal direction due to then-met longitudinal expansion, such motion might result in high additional strains to the joined construction eye-mounts, which can cause permanent damage.

In order to avoid such additional stress, a compression member formed of a rubber-elastic material could be em-plowed. Actually, a compression member of this kind is capable of absorbing relative movements of the projecting building structure with respect to the building proper, as well as the resulting tensile and compressive stresses, by the elastically deforming compression plate. On the other hand, however, such compression plates are of lower come pressive strength, and their useful Lowe is therefore rota-lively restricted under high compressive strains or loads.
Furthermore, the rubber-like supports yield under the stress such -that the projecting or cantilever panels de-float greatly.

It is therefore the object of the present invention -to provide a compression member which, irrespective of its high compressive strength and long useful life, is capable of absorbing the mechanical stresses or loads resulting from a movement of the projecting building structure rota-live to the building, without giving rise to s-trains liable to cause damage to the building, the projecting building structure or the compression member.

In the compression member as outlined a-t -the beginning, according to the invention this object is solved in that the compression member comprises at least one rod-shaped ., ~2~6~;~2 member which, owing to its slender shape, is capable of elastically or resiliently following temperature-induced longitudinal movements of the projecting building strikeout-no relative to the building.

The present compression member provides the following important advantages:

It has a high compressive strength and a desirably low thermal conductivity owing to its relatively small cross sectional area). Its relatively high elasticity permits the compression member to follow horizontal disk placements of the projecting building structure without producing substantial mechanical strains. This feature also provides for a long useful life of the compression members.

Below, the invention is described in greater detail by referring to exemplary embodiments illustrated in the drawing, wherein:

Figure 5 is a cross-sectional view of an insulation body including a compression member according to a ninth embodiment; and Figure 6 is a cross-sectional view of an insulation body including a compression member according to a tenth embodiment.

Figure l illustrates a part or structure of the butt-ding, such as, for example, a concrete ceiling (panel) l, and a concrete portion of the projecting building structure, such as a balcony panel 2. A heat-insulating prefabricated construction element including an ins-lotion body 3 is positioned between these structures in known per so manner. The longitudinal direction of this insulation body 3 extends perpendicular to the plane of the section. The insulation body 3 has passing there through not illustrated reinforcing rods which extend through the insulation body in part in horizontal direction so as to absorb tensile stress, and in part with an inclination so as to absorb also vertical forces.
Normally provided in the lower part of the insulation body are compression members functioning to transmit compressive forces from the projecting building structure to the building proper. In the arrangement according to Figure l, a compression element of this kind is formed by a compression rod 4. The latter may have a circular, rectangular or other cross-section. Owing to its small cross-section, the compression rod may easily follow displacements of the balcony panel 2 in a direction issue perpendicular to the plane of the section, without inducing substantial mechanical strains.

The compression member, shown in cross-sectional view in Figure pa, comprises a plurality of compression rods 5 of a round or circular cross-section, with one rod being disposed in the center and the other rods sun-rounding the central rod. This rod bundle is enclosed by a sheath or cover 6 acting to prevent buckling of the rods which transmit the compressive forces.

Figure 2b illustrates an embodiment of a compression member in the form of a bundle of round compression rods of which the central compression rod 7 has a cross-sectional area larger than that of the surrounding compression rods 8. In this embodiment, the central compression rod 7 serves primarily to prevent buckling of the surrounding thinner compression rods 8. This buckling preventing function is provided in cooperation with the sheath or cover 6. The ends of the central compression rod 7 are tapered with a frustoconical shape. This configuration of this central) rod is advantageous when the latter is utilized for pressure or compressive force transmission in combination with the compression rods 8. Owing to such configuration, this (central) rod can more easily follow longitudinal displacements of the balcony panel 2 caused by tempera-lure variations.

It is also possible to combine rods of a rectangular or other cross-section into a bundle of any desired cross-section. For example, a plurality of rectangular rods may be arranged in tandem (one behind the other) in a single plane in the longitudinal direction of the insulation body 3.

~;216~22 The arrangement shown in Figure pa illustrates the insulation body 3 in longitudinal sectional view. As compression members, rectangular rods 9 are provided which may be formed of, for example, wood or steel.
Furthermore, reinforcing rods 10 passing through the insulation body 3 are shown.

Figure 3b illustrates the insulation body 3 of Figure pa in cross-sectional view The rectangular rod 9 extends in its longitudinal direction beyond the in-solution body 3, and it is anchored in the concrete ceiling (panel) 1 and in the balcony panel 2. The ends of the rectangular rod 9 may be connected to tie plates 11 or tie irons 12 extending perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the rod. This arrangement permits to transmit through the rectangular rod 9 not only compressive forces, but also transverse forces, such that the reinforcing rods extending obliquely through the insulation body 3 may be dispensed with.

In the assemblies shown in Figures pa and 3b, installation of the compression rods may be effected, for example, by pushing in or inserting the rods into associated slots formed in the insulation body 3 from the lower side thereof. In the embodiments according to Figure 1 and Figures pa to 2c, the compression members may be inserted, for example, by slipping them into associated holes in the insulation body from the side thereof. When the respective compression member has been placed to lie flush within the insulation body, the adjoining concrete layers are formed by applying in situ concrete. The compression member is held in position by its bond to the concrete and by the compressive forces which are thereafter exerted on the compression member.

lo Figures pa to 4c illustrate three embodiments of compression members in the form of rectangular rods 9.
In Figure pa, the length of the rectangular rod 9 is equal to the width of the insulation body 3. In the embodiment of Figure 4b, the length of the rectangular rod 9 is smaller than the average width of the insulation body 3. Accordingly, the insulation body 3 must be formed with a correspondingly smaller width in the positions where it embraces the rectangular rods 9. In Figure 4c, the length of the rectangular rod 9 is larger than the average width of the insulation body 3. This configuration may be chosen particularly when long-itudinal displacements of the projecting building structure necessitate a given minimum length of the rectangular rods 9. In such case, the insulation body 3 must be eon-despondingly enlarged in the vicinity of the rectangular rods 9.

Figure 5 shows pressure or compression plates 14 facing the ends of a compression rod 14, which plates are embedded in the concrete ceiling panel) 1 and in the balcony panel 2, respectively. Compression plates of this type may be provided in such instances where the compression rods terminate at the concrete surfaces.
This applies, for example, to the embodiments according to Figures 1, 2c and pa to 4c. The compression plates 14 provide for improved pressure distribution. In these respects, the compression plates function in the same way as the tie plate 11 of Figure 3b, which is anchored in the concrete. Also, the tie plates 11 or the compression plates 14 may be profiled; for example, they may be formed with a U-shaped configuration.

The compression rod 13 according to Figure 5 has a relatively large cross-sectional area. Accordingly, its ends are tapered toward the compression plates.

12~

By this tapered configuration, a relatively high movability or flexibility of the compression rod is obtained; on the other hand, this compression rod is capable of transmitting relatively high compressive forces, and further, its thermal conductivity is reduced by the tapered configuration of its end portions. The compression plates may be formed so as to include means for centering the compression rod 13.
When the bundled compression rods are extended into the adjoining concrete panels beyond the width of the insulation body, it is advantageous if the end portions of the rods diverge within the concrete mass so as to provide for improved anchoring of the compression rods.
A configuration of this kind is shown e.g. in Figure 6 for the compression member illustrated in cross-sectional view in Figure pa.

Preferably, the compression members are positioned in the insulation body in such a manner that they may be replaced at a later time, if necessary. To this end, it may be necessary to slightly lift the balcony panel
2 in order to remove the compression member and install a new one.

Every compression-resistant material, such as steel, wood, compression-resistant and aging-resistant plastics materials, glass, ceramics, plastic concrete, synthetic resins and the like, may be used for forming the rod-shaped compression members. The rods may be solid; how-ever, they may also be formed to be hollow. If hollow rods are used, preferably such rods include internal stiffeners or reinforcements in the form of webs or intermediate walls.
