Description

PREFABRICATED BUILDING SYSTEl~I:
The present invention relates to a building structure and more particularly, relates to a prefabricated building structure system.
The use of prefabricated building structures for the building of such structures as sheds, garages and utility buildings is well known in the art. Generally, such structures have been formed of wood and have comprised wall sections whicih are built and then later assembled on site. Normally, it is the responsibility of the owner to prepare the site which will include providing blocks for a foundation on which the structure is placed.
A problem with such structures is that during the change in the seasons and particularly in cold climates, the surface on which the structure is placed moves and will accordingly cause movement in the structure. It then becomes necessary to re-adjust the structure in order to maintain its level.
A further problem associated with such structures is that due to the provision of supporting blocks and the inherent depth of the floor joist, a structure is raised from the ground. This causes a problem in that stairs or a ramp must be built to gain access and a space below the structure can become attractive to unwanted. animals or the like.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a prs~fabricated building structure which includes an integrated floor section.
According to one embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a building system having a base mold with a plurality of side walls, a plurality of reinforcing members extending between the side walls, a plurality of side wall sections having means for securement to concrete poured in the base section, and a :roof structure.

Having thus generally described the invention, reference will be made to the accompanying drawings illustrating an embodiment thereof, in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a completed structure according to one embodiment of the present invention;
Figure 2 is a perspective view of the assembled shell of the prefabricated building;
Figure 3 is a perspective view of a base module;
Figure 4 is a top plan view thereof;
Figure 5 is an end elevational view of an assembled ;structure; and Figure C is a side elevational view of a truss structure.
Referring to the drawings in greater detail and by reference characters thereto, there is illustrated in Figure 2 an assembled shell for a prefabricated building structure system and which structure is generally designated by referE;nce numeral 10.
Structure 10 includes a pair of base modules 12, 12' which are identical and which are suitably joined together. Thus, the base may be made up of any number of suitable interconnected modules. One such module is shown in Figures 3 and 4. As may be seen, a module comprises a mold type of arrangement having sidE; walls 14, 16, 18 and 20.
Each side wall is made of a metallic material having a wall and inwardly directed top and lower flanges. A plurality of rebars 22 are placed in a rectangular pattern and preferably secured to the walls by appropriate means such a.s spot welding or the like.
The structure, in a conventional manner, includes a plurality of vertical studs 24 which are spaced apart and connected by means of spacers 'Z6. A roof structure 28 is also provided.
-2-Roof structure 28, in a preferred embodiment, employs a plurality of trusses as illustrated in Figure 6. Each truss comprises rafters 31 an:d a truss plate 32. Truss plate 32 is formed in the shape of a IJ and is connected to both sides of rafters 31 at connections 34. For securement to the walls, there are provided end connector plates 36.
As will be best seen in Figure 5, there is provided a screw threaded member 38 for each vertical stud 24. These members 3 8 are secured in concrete to ensure the solidity of the structure.
Once the structure of Figure 2 has been set in place, c~oncre~te is formed within the base module 12, 12'. Thus, there is provided a structure which has. a solid floor and which will also ensure the solidity of the arranged structure in areas such as may have high winds. Since the structure is connected to the concrete floor, it is extremely solid.
The assembly may be shipped in a prefabricated manner with the walls lying on top of the base structure. Thus, there only remains the matter oil erecting the walls which can be done extremely rapidly.
An assembled and finished structure is illustrated in Figure 1. In this respect, many different types of finishing materials may be used including brick and the like due to the concrete floor.
It will be understood that the above described embodiment is for purposes of illustration only and that changes or modifications may be made thereto without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
