Abstract
The system is based on the utilization of modules which are repeated in slabs of floors (2), walls (1) and roof; said modules are comprised of vertical groups of boards (4) which are connected at their transverse edges by means of horizontal metal sections (11) and by means of tensioning bars which are housed into orifices facing the boards (4), the bars having threaded ends for tightening purposes by means of corresponding nuts. The boards (4) are provided with grooving-tongueing means (5) in order to obtain modules of which the height equals the existing height between floor and ceiling. The horizontal fixing to the floor slabs (2) is obtained by welding of the horizontal sections (11) or by other means, while the vertical unions between concurrent modules are realized by screwing the extremity of the tensioning bars (7) to the concurrent module or to L-shaped auxiliary sections (19). The modules of partitions, slabs and covers or roof may have different thickness in order to adapt them to the criteria of the execution project.

In the light of the reference figures, it can be seen how the system of the invention has the particular feature whereby both the walls (1), and frames (2) and partitions (3) are modular, each module being formed by a or em:3 .".-oe.,1 ~-...-...r.. (~) ~.~~..ear ,.o.f;..olly G., mollc I,~) onri nartitinnc (3) and horizontally in frames (2).
In all cases the boards (4) are joined together at the sides, i.e_ longitudinally, by means of a groove and tongue arrangement (5) provided 1 o for the purpose in the side or longitudinal edges of the boards, holes (6) also being practised which line up with each other to permit the stiffening rods (7) to pass through, said rods having their ends threaded fnr tightening, by means cf fI~JIO WV ~%~ma~vnUmg washer' (8), In order to aohic:YU v Ero~fvc~
fit and/or strength between the boards (4) of each module.
~ 5 At the ends or transversal edges, the boards (4) are finished with a segment (4') of less thickness, delimited by a pair of lateral grooves (9), i_e.
in their larger faces, while in the centre of the edge there is a longitudinal channel (10) of greater size than the lateral ones mentioned. Both the 8roovoo (O) and tho ohonnol ('1 O) chill rroferan+iolly ho of a reanfanp~ Ilar nr 20 Quadrangular shape, without discarding others which are suitable.
The referenced boards (4) of each module, the latter consisting of a plurality of boards. are duly assembled by seating or clamping their transversal edges into respective metauic sections (~1), the latter being shaped in the form of a "C", in which the intermediate leg is equal in size to 36 the loco thick scgmvnt (d') at fhP ~tipe c7f the boards (4). said intermediate leg having practised longitudinally in it an intermediate rectangular recess (12) which determines the respective projection towards the inside of the section itself, said projection facing and having the same size as the channel (10) in the transversal edge of the boards (4).
_g_ The side legs (11') of the metallic sections (13) come with a line of oblong holes (13), the length of the former being equal to that of the less thick segments (4') of the boards (4), each being fnished in folds (14) at right angles towards the inside, having the same depth as the grooves (9) which delimit said less thick segments (4'), and into which they are inserted.
The central leg of these metallic seMions (11 ) is extended in coplanar segments (14') which project perpendicular to the sides (11'), said segments alcn hawino nhlnnn hC'1IPS f~ 31 to permit the insertion of set-screws (22).
In fihis manner each module is determined by the respective collection of boards (4) joined together by means of the sections (11), said modules being self-supporting and of equal height to the separation existing between floor and ceiling, i.e. between each consecutive frame (2), all in such a fashion that said modules can be factory-built, transported and mounted on site by means of grabs that adapt to the profile of the upper edge of the moduld, Without discarding Its positioning being achieved by any other system or means.
Clearly the modules can be produced with internal openings to form windows and/or doorways, upwards from the lower metallic section.
When assembling the modules when constructing the floor frames, they shall be laid horizontally so that they rest on a footing (15), as can be seen in figure 5, continuous over its full length, in which can be seen auxiliary sections (15') for fastening purposes, It being possit,le to erfect the assembly in the respective intermediate recesses (12) of the sections (11) pertaining to the ground floor walls (1) and partitions (3), being joined to each other by means of a welding bead (16) or other means of fastening.
For assembling the modules corresponding to the partitions (3), the horiaontal sections (11) arse fastened to the guide facilitated by the sections of the frame modules (2), t~eiry fixc~ ~i~iiJly to thcaa by welding or otncr means, and to each other by means of the horizontal stiffening rods (7), employing nuts and washers, with the interposition of auxiliary sections.
_g_ In forming the modules, the sections (11) are fitted by sliding them over the edges of the boards (4), the projection produced by the intermediate recess (12) of the central leg of the respective section (11 ) being housed in ll is vcnlit:crl ulnaW nel ( 1 U) tit the cac~J. es of the Doarda (4), vrhilC

segments (14) of the side legs (11') of said sections (11) are housed in the side grooves (9) of the boards (A) themselves.
In forming the frames, the consecutive and coplanar modules lie adjacent to the joining sections (11). the flanges or side legs (11') of these being back to back, as can be seen in figure 2, and with the holes (13) of 1 O both lyinra oppo9ite eQCh olhc~r in order tn nr~rmit thr~ fiminp rlr-.m~ntc, ci ir:h a~
screws (22), to pass through. In addition, each pair of adjacent sections (11) determines a horizontal space (17) delimited by the opposing recesses (12) of the two sections (11 ), said space serving for the possible insertion of a web (18) having a section approximately equal to that of the former, functioning as a guide and stiffening element-It mmst also hy,c,inf~d nmt that thr~ rnnlanar, a~t~jan~nt send Innpitntlinal legs (11') of the sections (11) corresponding to the frames (2) serve to guide the modules forming the partitions (3), being housed in the space of the outside channel of the central horiaontal leg of the actual partition-forming modules.
With regard to the upright junctions at the corners, in these an auxiliary L-shaped section (19) is employed, on the side faces of which rest tl,o p~rtitione (3) that moot in tho corner. said section (19) boinr> r,rr.vir-~~d with holes (20) to permit passage for the horizontal stiffening rods (7) of the corner modules themselves, being finally fiixed in position by means of the corresponding washers and nuts (8).

In all cases the boards (4) are joined together at the sides, i.e_ longitudinally, by means of a groove and tongue arrangement (5) provided 1 o for the purpose in the side or longitudinal edges of the boards, holes (6) also being practised which line up with each other to permit the stiffening rods (7) to pass through, said rods having their ends threaded fnr tightening, by means cf fI~JIO WV ~%~ma~vnUmg washer' (8), In order to aohic:YU v Ero~fvc~
fit and/or strength between the boards (4) of each module.
~ 5 At the ends or transversal edges, the boards (4) are finished with a segment (4') of less thickness, delimited by a pair of lateral grooves (9), i_e.
in their larger faces, while in the centre of the edge there is a longitudinal channel (10) of greater size than the lateral ones mentioned. Both the 8roovoo (O) and tho ohonnol ('1 O) chill rroferan+iolly ho of a reanfanp~ Ilar nr 20 Quadrangular shape, without discarding others which are suitable.
The referenced boards (4) of each module, the latter consisting of a plurality of boards. are duly assembled by seating or clamping their transversal edges into respective metauic sections (~1), the latter being shaped in the form of a "C", in which the intermediate leg is equal in size to 36 the loco thick scgmvnt (d') at fhP ~tipe c7f the boards (4). said intermediate leg having practised longitudinally in it an intermediate rectangular recess (12) which determines the respective projection towards the inside of the section itself, said projection facing and having the same size as the channel (10) in the transversal edge of the boards (4).
_g_ The side legs (11') of the metallic sections (13) come with a line of oblong holes (13), the length of the former being equal to that of the less thick segments (4') of the boards (4), each being fnished in folds (14) at right angles towards the inside, having the same depth as the grooves (9) which delimit said less thick segments (4'), and into which they are inserted.
The central leg of these metallic seMions (11 ) is extended in coplanar segments (14') which project perpendicular to the sides (11'), said segments alcn hawino nhlnnn hC'1IPS f~ 31 to permit the insertion of set-screws (22).
In fihis manner each module is determined by the respective collection of boards (4) joined together by means of the sections (11), said modules being self-supporting and of equal height to the separation existing between floor and ceiling, i.e. between each consecutive frame (2), all in such a fashion that said modules can be factory-built, transported and mounted on site by means of grabs that adapt to the profile of the upper edge of the moduld, Without discarding Its positioning being achieved by any other system or means.
Clearly the modules can be produced with internal openings to form windows and/or doorways, upwards from the lower metallic section.
When assembling the modules when constructing the floor frames, they shall be laid horizontally so that they rest on a footing (15), as can be seen in figure 5, continuous over its full length, in which can be seen auxiliary sections (15') for fastening purposes, It being possit,le to erfect the assembly in the respective intermediate recesses (12) of the sections (11) pertaining to the ground floor walls (1) and partitions (3), being joined to each other by means of a welding bead (16) or other means of fastening.
For assembling the modules corresponding to the partitions (3), the horiaontal sections (11) arse fastened to the guide facilitated by the sections of the frame modules (2), t~eiry fixc~ ~i~iiJly to thcaa by welding or otncr means, and to each other by means of the horizontal stiffening rods (7), employing nuts and washers, with the interposition of auxiliary sections.
_g_ In forming the modules, the sections (11) are fitted by sliding them over the edges of the boards (4), the projection produced by the intermediate recess (12) of the central leg of the respective section (11 ) being housed in ll is vcnlit:crl ulnaW nel ( 1 U) tit the cac~J. es of the Doarda (4), vrhilC
the CncJ
segments (14) of the side legs (11') of said sections (11) are housed in the side grooves (9) of the boards (A) themselves.
In forming the frames, the consecutive and coplanar modules lie adjacent to the joining sections (11). the flanges or side legs (11') of these being back to back, as can be seen in figure 2, and with the holes (13) of 1 O both lyinra oppo9ite eQCh olhc~r in order tn nr~rmit thr~ fiminp rlr-.m~ntc, ci ir:h a~
screws (22), to pass through. In addition, each pair of adjacent sections (11) determines a horizontal space (17) delimited by the opposing recesses (12) of the two sections (11 ), said space serving for the possible insertion of a web (18) having a section approximately equal to that of the former, functioning as a guide and stiffening element-It mmst also hy,c,inf~d nmt that thr~ rnnlanar, a~t~jan~nt send Innpitntlinal legs (11') of the sections (11) corresponding to the frames (2) serve to guide the modules forming the partitions (3), being housed in the space of the outside channel of the central horiaontal leg of the actual partition-forming modules.
With regard to the upright junctions at the corners, in these an auxiliary L-shaped section (19) is employed, on the side faces of which rest tl,o p~rtitione (3) that moot in tho corner. said section (19) boinr> r,rr.vir-~~d with holes (20) to permit passage for the horizontal stiffening rods (7) of the corner modules themselves, being finally fiixed in position by means of the corresponding washers and nuts (8).
Figure 3 clearly shows said junction, complete with a finishing angle iron (21 ) which constitutes the actual corner piece-It is not considered necessary to extend this description further for any 'JO oaaport in Eho moltor to oomprohonc~ fho ooopo of fho invontion pnd !he -'10-advantages stemming therefrom_ The materials, shape. size and arrangement of the elements shall be capable of modification, insofar as this does not alter the essential nature of the invention.
