Abstract
Description
- This invention concerns building elements for making building structures, especially for making roofs.
- Self-supporting roofs or roof sections are known which comprise a plurality of extruded plastics profile elements connected side-by-side, each element having at least one longitudinal chamber and coupling members by which neighbouring profile elements are interconnected, the adjacent coupling members of neighbouring profile elements engaging to form a duct.
- In UK Patent Specification No. 1528874 the coupling of adjacent panels form together a duct through which is inserted a longitudinally elongate locking member, the locking member having at least two opposite longitudinal edges that are a sliding fit within said duct so as to prevent the locking member from twisting under load.
- In UK Patent Specification No. 1511189 it was further proposed that the longitudinal chamber of each element has na internal partition substantially parallel to the outer surfaces of a building unit made up of said elements. That partition is principally to provide additional heat insulation.
- Further proposals for such profile elements have been made in European Patent Specification No. 0070930A, in which multiple duct elements have main ducts and intermediate secondary ducts having internal partitions that are in line. Connection of elements to each other is as disclosed in UK Patent Specifications Nos. 1511189 and 1528874. The multiple duct elements were proposed mainly to reduce construction time of a roof as compared with using single duct elements.
- A yet further proposal for such elements was made in UK Patent Specification No. 2147334B, in which upper coupling members consist of cylindrical, slotted, downwardly open flanges of such dimensions that a flange of a first element can be snap locked to a flange of a second identical element, In addition the lower end of one side wall of an element is integrally connected to a guide member which is adapted to engage the anchoring member of an adjacent element so as to maintain the lower ends of two adjacent side walls in spaced relationship so as to form a tight connection between such elements.
- Each of these elements has to be secured, usually by means of screws, before the next element can be connected, which can be time-consuming and does not readily permit later adjustments of element positions.
- Furthermore, there is a limit to the reasonable span of such elements for strength purposes. Even multiple duct elements have a limited span because they have main ducts based on single duct elements which themselves have a structural limit on their width.
- An object of this invention is to provide an improved building element.
- According to a first aspect of the invention there is provided a hollow building element of plastics material comprising a plurality of hollow ducts and having at opposite sides thereof coupling members, whereby elements may be connected to each other directly or indirectly, wherein the ducts are generally rectangular and formed between generally flat top and bottom walls and vertical end and intermediate walls.
- Preferably the elements have an intermediate wall parallel to the bottom walls, whereby two series of ducts one on top of the other are provided. The intermediate wall may be of thinner section than the top or bottom walls of the building element.
- According to a second aspect of the invention there is provided a hollow building element of plastics material comprising one or more hollow ducts and having at opposite sides thereof coupling members, whereby elements may be connected to each other directly or indirectly, wherein upper coupling members comprise a part engageable with a separate member.
- According to a third aspect of the invention there is provided a hollow building element of plastics material comprising one or more hollow ducts and having at opposite sides thereof coupling members, whereby elements may be connected to each other directly or indirectly, whereby lower coupling members comprise formations that interengage with formations of neighbouring elements and are held together by a separate member.
- The separate member of the second and third aspects of the invention may be the same member having upper and lower formations for engagement with upper coupling members and for holding together lower coupling members respectively. The separate member is preferably in the form of a stiffening beam.
- The building element of the second and third aspects of the invention is preferably a building element of the first aspect of the invention.
- A preferred upper coupling member comprises a flange forming a channel section which is engageable in a complementary channel section of said separate member or beam.
- Preferred lower coupling members comprise a first member that is a vertical channel into which a second member fits, the separate member having a formation that fits over said engaged first and second members to hold them together.
- For coupled building elements according to the invention it is preferable to provide a cap or cover over the area of the coupling to prevent water ingress. Preferably the cap or cover is securable to said separate member or stiffening beam. The cap or cover preferably has at its side edges sealing means in the form of flexible resilient material. The separate member or stiffening beam preferably has a formation engageable with a formation of the cap or cover to retain the cap or cover in place. The separate member or stiffening beam may have a channel formation into which one or more depending projections of the cap or cover locate. Preferably the cap or cover has two such projections shaped to engage complementary formations on inside surfaces of the channel of the separate member or beam. The projections are preferably resilient and angled away from each other, whereby they will tend to urge outwards when pressed together and so improve engagement in the channel formation.
- The preferred structure of the building element of the invention may permit elements of greater width than hitherto to be made, possibly of the order of 0.5m. The earlier described building elements are generally only made to about 0.25m.
- This invention will now be further described, by way of example only, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:-
- Figure 1 is an end view of a building element according to the invention; and
- Figure 2 is an enlarged view showing detail of coupling elements of Figure 1.
- Referring to the accompanying drawings, a
building element 10 for forming building structures, such as roofs, is shown made of translucent plastics material, such as polycarbonate, by extrusion. Theelement 10 is generally hollow having relatively thin walls. Theelement 10 has aflat bottom wall 12,upstanding end walls 14, upstandingintermediate walls 16, aflat top wall 18 and anintermediate wall 20 parallel to and equidistant from the top andbottom walls intermediate wall 20 will probably be of thinner section than the top orbottom walls building element 10 comprising a plurality ofrectangular section ducts 22 arranged in two rows one on top of the other. - At each end of the
building element 10 are upper and lower coupling members. At one end, the lower coupling member 24 is an L-shaped extension oflower wall 18 and at the other endlower coupling member 26 comprises an extension of thelower wall 18 with avertical channel section 28 formed thereon into which the lower coupling member 24 of the other end of an adjacent building element can fit. - The
upper coupling members 30 at each end of the building element comprisevertical extensions 31 ofside walls 14 and downwardly open channel forming members 32 extending therefrom. The upper coupling members do not actually engage each other but engage astiffening beam 40 inserted between building elements that are brought together end to end. - The
stiffening beam 40, preferably extruded from aluminium, has upper andlower formations adjacent building elements 10 are held together. Thelower formation 44 comprises a downwardly openingchannel 46 having a pair of opposedinternal projections 48 that extend towards each other but do not meet. Theformation 44 is sized so that when the lower coupling elements of adjacent building elements are brought together they fit between theprojections 48 thereby holding them together. - The
upper formation 42 of thebeam 40 comprises an upwardly openingchannel 50 having its internal side walls serrated. Extending outwards from opposite sides of thechannel 50 in line with its base are L-shaped projections 52. Theprojections 52 are sized and shaped each to engage channel members 32 ofupper coupling member 30, thereby holdingadjacent elements 10 in a fixed relationship. - The connection between a pair of
building elements 10 is covered by acapping 60. Thecapping 60 comprises a channel section extrusion havingflexible edges 62 for forming seals withtop walls 18 of theelements 10 and a pair of internal downwardly dependingresilient projections 64. Theprojections 64 are angled apart and each has a lip 66 at its distal end to engage the serrations of thechannel 50 ofbeam 40. Thus, when the cap is pressed downwards with theprojections 64 inserted into thechannel 50, theprojections 64 are urged together but once the capping has reached its seating, the projections will tend to press outwards so that their lips 66 engage with the serrations ofchannel 50 to retain the capping in place with its sealing edges against thetop walls 18 of the adjacent building elements. - To construct a roof using
building elements 10, the elements are laid side-by-side on a structure providing support at opposite ends of the elements with their lower coupling elements engaged. Astiffening beam 40 is then slid into the space between the elements to fix the lower coupling members and engage the upper coupling members of the elements. Then acapping 60 is pressed into thebeam 40 until it seats onto the adjacent elements sufficiently to form a seal between the edges of the capping and the top walls of the adjacent elements.
