Abstract

Traditionally, foundations for residential homes and commercial buildings are constructed first by pouring a concrete footing. After this footing has hardened, the walls are erected normally in one of two ways:
(1) by erecting forms upon the footings into which ready mix concrete is poured. When the ready mix concrete has hardened, these forms will be removed leaving the concrete walls; or by (2) by the use of masonry mortar and concrete block placed upon the footing. This mortar and block will be used layer after layer until the desired height of yourfoundation wall is achieved.

Both of these methods are labour intensive and time consuming.

In this invention, foundation wall sections with tongue and groove of differential heights, widths and angles will be precast. A special groove will be left in the footwall when it is poured. The bottom of these wall sections will also have a tongue. Mortar is put in the groove and the wall sections are set in place and held together with assemble clips until all the wall sections are in place and the foundation and mortar has hardened.

Description

Specifications:
This invention relates to the production of precast foundation walls for resi-l~nti~l and commercial b~ ling~. To construct a b~ement the common practice would be to poura footing or footwall by ready mix concrete. When the footwall has hardened, then concrete forms will be erected on the footwall and the ready mix concrete (trucked to site) will be poured into these forms, thereby creating a concrete wall. When the concrete has hardened then the forms are removed leaving a solid concrete wall.

Another way is to pour a footing and concrete block is brought to the site. A brick layer will put mortar on the footwall and block, then he will continue with this mortar and block pattern, layer a~er layer, until the desired height of the foundation is reached.
This leaves many vertical and horizontal mortar joins in the foundation.

The disadvantages of the ready mix concrete are:

~ A concrete form will be erected to hold the ready mix concrete lllixlure. Once it settles or hardens then these concrete forms have to be removed. The in~t~ ion and removal of these forms is very time consumin~ Also the ready mix concrete plant must be somewhere close to the site location to make it feasible for the cement trucks to bring the concrete to the site. There are manyplaces, because of isolation, where ready mix concrete is not available.

~ To lay concrete block, the block, sand and mortar is brought to the site. Brick layers have to mix the mortar, put it on the footwall and lay these blocks on the mortar. The mortar joints run vertical and horizontal. Each block will have mortar on the bottom, top and sides. This procedure of laying block is labour intensive bec~ e each block is laid individually. Layers of mortar and block areplaced one on top of the other until the desired height of the basement is reached. These blocks are usually hollow in the center leaving an open space in the wall.

In this invention, concrete wall sections will be precast in a factory with tongue and groove moulds. There will be a tongue on the bottom of the wall sections, a tongue on one side and a groove on the other. The center core of these wall sections will contain rigid in~ ~ion. These wall sections are transported to the location site. When the concrete footing is poured, a groove will be left in the footing to accommodate the tongue at the bottom of each wall section. Each wall section is erected with the use of mortar in the grooves. The wall sections are held in place with the use of assembly clips. Starting with a corner section, the assembly clips will keep each successive section secure until the mortar joints have set up or hardened.
There will be special wall sections with rough openings for windows and doors. There will be T wall sections and sections with special angles and turns depending on what is required in the cons~uction of a particular basement. There will be wall sections of all sizes including 4'x8', 2'x8', 4'x4', 2'x4', Ts, angles and various other types of wall sections for use in residenti~l or commercial buildings.

These wall sections will be ideal for remote areas where ready mix concrete plants are not available. The wall sections will be precast and will be built on a design to meet the diLrerellt specifications of buildings and/or house plans. These wall sections will contain a rigid insulation core which will add to the insulation factor of the wall over the traditional type which has a hollow core center. This insulation factor is another advantage over the block.
In~ul~tion in these walls will have a better insulation factor than solid concrete walls.
Another advantage win be the savings on the amount of concrete used in the wall when using the solid core insulation.

Brief Description of the D. a~

Figure 1 shows a building foundation constructed of precast foundation sections using nine di~rerenl embodiments.

Figure 2 shows one embodiment of a keyway that would be placed in the footing when the footing is poured.

Figure 3 is a side cut view of a precast wall section showing four di~erelll embodiments of this invention.
Figure 4 shows a top view of a precast wall section with three different embodiments of this invention. There are a 16 embodiments in total for this invention.

Figure 1 shows the construction of a foundation with the use of precast wall sections.
Item 1 shows the groove left in a foot wall that the tongue of the wall section will set in. These wall sections will be of di~erel~l hei~ht~ and widths. Item 2 is a wall section that is long and low. Item 3 is a wall section which is narrow and higher. Item 4 is a wall section with rough stud openings for windows or doors. Item 5 is a low corner section. Item 6 is a higher corner section of di~erellt heights. Item 7 shows wall sections which are narrow and high. Item 8 is a wall section with various angles. Item 9 is a T wall section for use with other wall sections if needed. All of these wall sections of different sizes, widths and angles can be constructed of various heights.
Figure 2 is a keyway placed in the footwall when the footwall is being poured. When the concrete has hardened it will be removed leaving a groove as shown in Figure 1, Item 1.
Figure 3 is the side view of a wall section which shows the different embodiments of that section. Item 10 is a rigid insulation core in the center of the panel which will be completely engulfed in cement. Item 11 shows the assembly clips on either side of the wall panel. Item 12 is the anchor bolts for the sill at the top of each panel. Item 16 shows the tongue at the bottom of the panel that fits into the groove in the footwall, which is shown as Item 1.

21 91491 ~,-Figure 4 shows the top cut view of your wall section. Item 13 shows the sides of the wall section with a tongue and Item 14 is a groove. Item 11 shows the assemble clips which keeps each panel in place. Item 15 shows where the mortar will be placed in the joints when the sections are assembled. Item 10 shows the rigid insulation. Item 12 shows the anchor bolts for the sill.
