Abstract

The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a composite element comprising at least one wooden layer which is bound to a concrete or mortar layer, as well as to a composite element manufactured accordingly. In order to provide this composite element with a high load carrying capacity, which is the result of the concrete or mortar layer adhering onto the whole surface of the wooden layer, an adhesive (16) with a paste consistency is applied so that the adhesive coats the surface and forms an adhesive layer. Then, fresh hydraulic concrete or fresh hydraulic mortar is spread onto the adhesive layer (16) and is distributed over this layer in order to coat the surface and form the concrete or mortar layer (14). The adhesive layer (16) and the concrete or mortar layer (14) are caused to set during a common transient setting phase to produce an inter-layer binding over a large surface.

Description

Composite element and its method of manufacturing Description The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a composite element comprising at least one wooden layer and a concrete or mortar layer bound to it and to a composite element produced by this method.
Composite structures of wood and concrete constitute a mixed form of construction in which the cross-sections of supporting components consist of the two disparate materials wood and concrete, which are usually flexibly bonded together by mechanical means. In the vast majority of applications of wood and concrete structures, the concrete is in the bending pressure zone and the wood is in the bending stress zone of a bending load-bearing element. This permits optimum use of the properties of the two construction materials. The firmness and rigidity of the concrete are at their maximum under compression load. If wood is introduced into the stress zone the concrete usually present in reinforced concrete cross-sections is absent from the stress zone; such concrete does not contribute to load-bearing when cracks occur and is simply a dead load. The procedure permits the creation of cross-sections whose own weight is comparatively small and which exhibit high rigidity. The load-bearing capacity of such structures is, for example, approximately doubled in comparison with a ceiling consisting only of wooden beams, the flexural strength is three or four times as great. The use of wood and concrete composite ceilings markedly reduces the flexibility of the ceiling which is often found to be an inconvenience in ceilings made solely of wooden beams. In addition, the damping of vibrations is significantly more pronounced in wood and concrete composite ceilings than in wooden ceilings, so that it is much easier to perform vibration checks for limits of serviceability. The application of a concrete slab to existing wood-beam ceilings also improves sound insulation. Because of the markedly greater mass of the concrete, sound transmission by air is diminished, while the higher damping values of the composite ceiling also reduces sound transmission through solid bodies.
Lastly, in the event of exposure to fire the concrete slab forms an effective barrier to prevent the fire from spreading.
It therefore improves the fire resistance of the structure in comparison with a ceiling made solely of wooden beams. The wooden beams themselves exhibit longer fire resistance than finished load- bearing members made of steel or reinforced concrete.
In a method for manufacturing a composite wood and concrete structure which is known from EP-0 432 484 the wooden layer and the concrete layer are bonded together by reinforcing screws screwed into the wooden layer and projecting beyond it.
A plastic film is then spread over the whole of a free surface of a wooden ceiling, completely separating the concrete to be poured on later from the wooden surface, so that moisture from the fresh concrete cannot penetrate the wood. After the plastic film has been spread the reinforcing screws are screwed into the wooden bearing beams of the wooden ceiling, with a portion of the length of the shaft of the reinforcement screws still projecting over the wooden beams.
The fresh concrete is then poured on to the wooden ceiling which has been prepared in this manner, so that a point-by-point bond is formed between the wooden layer and the concrete layer after the concrete has hardened. It has been found that the disadvantage of this process is that bonding between the wooden layer and the concrete layer does not take place over the whole surface. The load-bearing capacity of this type of structure is substantially reduced in comparison with a bond over the whole surface.
It is also known how to glue a prefabricated concrete slab to a free wooden surface. This is in practice only appropriate for composite wood and concrete elements which are to be prefabricated, since it is impossible to introduce prefabricated concrete slabs with large surfaces into existing buildings. In addition, as the adjoining surfaces of the wooden layer and the concrete layer always exhibit some unevenness small hollows are created between the wooden layer and the concrete layer, so that in~this case too a bond over the whole surface is not ensured.
The purpose of the invention is therefore to propose a method for manufacturing a composite wood and concrete element which is easy to execute and ensures a bond over the whole surface between the wooden layer and the concrete layer. Its purpose is also to offer a composite element produced by the method described in the invention which will have a greater load-bearing capacity than conventional composite elements.
To achieve this purpose the combinations of features listed in patent claims 1 and 10 are proposed. Advantageous embodiments and further developments of the invention can be found in the related claims.
The basic principle of the invention is that the simplest way of obtaining a bond over the whole surface between the wooden layer and the concrete layer is for the fresh concrete to be poured while an intermediate layer of adhesive is deposited directly on the wooden layer. It is therefore proposed in accordance with the invention that an adhesive with paste-like consistency is applied to a free surface of the wooden layer forming an adhesive layer covering the surface, that fresh hydraulic concrete or mortar is poured on to the adhesive layer and spread over it forming the concrete or mortar layer and that the adhesive layer and the concrete or mortar layer are hardened in a simultaneous hardening phase, creating a bond between the layers over a large surface. If the fresh hydraulic concrete or mortar is poured on to the adhesive layer before the latter has hardened, components of the concrete, especially the gravel in it, penetrate the adhesive layer and produce an indentation between the layers. In this way pouring the fresh concrete or the fresh mortar in liquid form will in every case create a bond over the whole surface.
Preferably the thickness with which the layer of adhesive is applied to the wooden surface is 0.1 to 0.8 mm. This small thickness is sufficient to achieve the required indentation between the fresh concrete and the adhesive layer. The adhesive can be sprayed, rolled or trowelled on to the wood surface, and if trowelled, preferably with a serrated trowel which imparts to the adhesive layer a rough surfacing that enhances the effect of the indentation. The adhesive used is preferably a glue with two components from the epoxy resin or polyurethane resin group. These adhesives are sufficiently impervious to water for the adhesive layer to remain in place when the fresh concrete or fresh mortar is poured on. The paste-like adhesive should be sufficiently brushable but not too runny, so that it will not be expelled from the wooden surface by the application of the fresh concrete or the fresh mortar. The adhesive should therefore have a viscosity of 20 to 600 Pa.s when it is applied to the wooden surface and when the fresh concrete or fresh mortar is subsequently applied thereto.
To prevent the formation of air bubbles while the fresh concrete or fresh mortar are being poured on a preferred embodiment of the process provides for the concrete or mortar layer to be thickened preferably by vibrating before hardening takes place.
The strength and load-bearing capacity of the composite element is still further increased by embedding reinforcing material such as construction steel or fibre material in the concrete or mortar layer when the fresh concrete or fresh mortar is poured.
Electrical cables and plumbing are usually laid under plaster.
To make this easier it is provided that in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the method described in the invention empty pipes for the electrical and/or plumbing installation are embedded in the concrete mortar layer at the time when the fresh concrete or the fresh mortar is applied.
For the purpose of obtaining even coverage of the concrete or mortar layer, over the wooden layer it is advantageous to insert the wooden layer in a removable sheathing for the fresh concrete or the fresh mortar or to provide it with such a sheathing.
The composite element described in the invention consists essentially of wood and concrete mortar or cement mortar with at least one wooden layer and one concrete or mortar layer and a thin-walled bonding medium made of a synthetic resin glue with two components which is placed between the wooden layer and the concrete or mortar layer. The wall thickness of the thin-walled bonding medium should be from 0.1 to 0.8 mm and the medium may consist of an epoxy resin glue with two components or a polyurethane glue with two components. The load-bearing capacity of the composite element can be further increased by embedding in the concrete or mortar layer a reinforcement made preferably from construction steel or from fibre material. In addition, empty pipes can be embedded in the concrete or mortar layer for the electrical cable and/or plumbing installation.
A preferred use of the method described in the invention is to employ it for the production of prefabricated ceiling, floor and wall components for buildings, especially prefabricated houses.
A detailed description and explanation of the invention supported by drawings is given below, as follows:
Figure 1 section of a composite element as described in the invention;
Figure 2 enlarged segment of composite element as in Figure 1 in the vicinity of the bonding medium.
The composite element shown in the drawings and designated overall by the number 10 consists essentially of a wooden layer 12 and a concrete or mortar layer 14 which is bonded to the surface of the wooden layer 12 by an adhesive layer 16.
The adhesive layer 16 is sprayed, rolled or trowelled on to the wooden surface as a paste and has a very small thickness, approximately 0.5 mm. The concrete or mortar layer 14 is spread on to the adhesive layer 16 before the latter has hardened. In consequence, as is more particularly apparent from Figure 2, the coarser components of the concrete or mortar layer 14 penetrate the adhesive layer 16 and a certain intermixing of the two layers takes place with the result that after both layers have set, there is an effective bonding indentation over the whole surface.
The invention may be summarized as follows: It refers to a method for manufacturing a composite element comprising at least one wooden layer and one concrete or mortar layer bound to it and to a composite element produced by the method. In order to increase the load-bearing capacity of the composite element by bonding the concrete or mortar layer with the wooden layer over the whole surface, it is proposed according to the invention that an adhesive 16 of paste-like consistency will be applied to a free surface of the wood layer 12 forming an adhesive layer over the whole surface. Fresh hydraulic concrete or mortar is then spread on to the adhesive layer 16 and distributed over it to form the concrete or mortar layer 14 covering the whole surface. The adhesive layer 16 and the concrete or mortar layer 14 are caused to set in a common setting phase, creating a bond between the layers over a large surface.
