Definitions

  • This invention (structure and method) relates to building structure, and in particular to a novel column/beam/collar-interconnect structural organization (and related methodology) which functions to create an improved and very capable moment-resistant frame for a building.
  • Featured in the practice of the invention is a unique, bearing-face collar-interconnect structure which joins adjacent columns and beams at nodes of intersection between them.
  • US 5 678 375 A discloses a building framework comprising a plurality of steel girders, steel columns, and steel connecting members for joining at least one girder with at least one column to form the building framework. Further provided is a plurality of substantially flat coupling elements, each having opening therein, wherein at least one column and at least one connecting member each terminate with at least one coupling element.
  • the coupling elements substantially match each other and extend outward beyond the outer wall of the column and of the connecting member for providing attachment therebetween.
  • the girders, columns and coupling elements are reinforced with concrete extending through the coupling elements via the openings.
  • US 6 082 070 A discloses a patio construction, which is easy to assemble and disassemble by the user.
  • the patio construction includes at least four base joint to respectively support four vertical construction beams extended upwardly.
  • Four top ends of said four vertical construction beams respectively connect four triaxial construction joints adapted for connecting at least four horizontal construction beams.
  • a plurality of ceiling bars are detachably mounted between at least two of said horizontal construction beams.
  • US 6 092 347 A discloses a skeleton of a greenhouse including a plurality of equidistant posts, a plurality of beams each fixedly mounted between every two of the posts, a plurality of bracing struts each having a lower end welded with an L-shaped fixing member, a plurality of drain pipes each fixedly mounted between every two of the L-shaped fixing members, and a plurality of vertical rods each having a lower end welded with an inverted U-shaped member fitted with a respective one of the drain pipes and fixed in place by bolts, whereby the skeleton of a greenhouse can be rapidly and easily built in a short time.
  • WO 98 / 36134 A disclose a joint for steel structure, provided with an upper diaphragm combined with a lower surface of an upper column, a lower diaphragm combined with an upper surface of a lower column, a connection core having a cross section smaller than that of the upper and the lower diaphragms, and a height corresponding to that of a beam, and gusset plates disposed between the upper and lower diaphragms and fixed at their circumferential edge portions to at least the connection core, combination bolt holes being formed in the upper and lower diaphragms and gusset plates. This enables the upper and the lower diaphragms and upper and lower flanges of the beam to be combined together by bolts.
  • US 5 289 665 A1 discloses a novel framework arrangement, wherein a bracket to shaft coupling assembly permits the face of horizontal beams to align with the face of a square tubular vertical post and thereby establishes an exceptionally strong framework made up of exceptionally light structural elements (posts, beams and connector device) and comprises a minimum of interchangeable parts which can be readily mass-produced, and which can be used to assemble any variety of orthogonal building structure.
  • GB 1 204 327 A discloses vertical and horizontal scaffold tubes which are connected together by means of spigot and socket connecting members, the spigot being generally of dovetail form and upwardly tapering, and the socket members being of a similar shape, and guarded by gravity locks.
  • Each lock may be replaced by an L-shaped clamp screwed to the horizontal tube with its longer limb pressed against the bottom of the spigot member and its shorter limb pressed against the bottom of the tube.
  • the spigots extend out from a ring which may taper in thickness in the axial direction of the spigots.
  • Adjacent vertical tubes may have a bayonet connection by means of an upper spigot with a lateral projection, which engages an inclined slot in the bottom of the tube.
  • Similar socket connecting members may be pivotally attached to the ends of tubes acting as diagonal braces.
  • nodal connections which result from practice of the present invention function to create what is referred to as three-dimensional, multi-axial, moment-coupling, load transfer interconnection and interaction between beams and columns.
  • the proposed nodal collar structures include inner components which are anchored, as by welding, to the outside surfaces of columns, and an outer collar which is made up of components that are suitably anchored, also as by welding, to the opposite ends of beams.
  • the inner and outer collar components are preferably and desirably formed by precision casting and/or machining, and are also preferably pre-joined to columns and beams in an automated, factory-type setting, rather than out on the construction job site. Accordingly, the invented collar components lend themselves to economical, high-precision manufacture and assembly with columns and beams, which can then be delivered to a job site ready for accurate assembly.
  • Male/female cleat/socket configurations formed in and adjacent the confronting bearing-face portions of the inner and outer collar components function under the influence of gravity, during such preliminary building construction, not only to enable such gravity locking and positioning of the associated frame components, but also to establish immediate, substantial stability and moment resistance to lateral loads, even without further assembly taking place at the nodal locations of column-beam intersections.
  • tension bolts are preferably introduced into the collar structures, and specifically into the components of the outer collar structures, effectively to lock the inner and outer collar structures in place against separation, and to introduce available tension load-bearing constituents into the outer collar structures.
  • tension load bearing plays an important role in the way that the structure of the present invention gathers and couples beam moment loads multidirectionally into columns.
  • Confronting faces between the inner and outer collar components function as bearing faces to deliver, or transfer, moment loads (carried in beams) directly as compression loads into the columns.
  • these bearing faces deliver such compression loads to the columns at plural locations which are angularly displaced about the long axes of the columns (because of the axial encircling natures of the collars).
  • Such load distribution takes substantially full advantage of the load-carrying capabilities of the columns with respect to reacting to beam moment loads.
  • a building frame structure assembled in accordance with this invention results in a remarkably stable and capable frame, wherein all lateral loads transfer via compression multiaxially, and at distributed nodes, into the columns, and are born in a substantially relatively evenly and uniformly distributed fashion throughout the entire frame structure.
  • Such a frame structure requires no bracing or shear walls, and readily accommodates the later incorporation (into an emerging building) of both outer surface skin structure, and internal floor structure.
  • the nodal interconnections which exist between beams and columns according to this invention at least from one set of points of view, can be visualized as discontinuous floating connections -- discontinuous in the sense that there is no uninterrupted (homogenous) metal or other material path which flows structurally from beams to columns and floating in the sense that beams and columns could, if so desired, be nondestructively disconnected for any particular purpose.
  • the connective interface that exists between a beam and a column according to this invention includes a portion which experiences no deformation during load handling, such portion being resident at the discontinuity which exists between beams and columns at the nodal interfaces.
  • a building frame structure This structure is also referred to herein as building structure, and as a structural system.
  • frame structure 20 might be constructed on, and rise from, any suitable, underlying support structure, such as the ground, but in the particular setting illustrated in Fig. 1 , structure 20 is shown supported on, and rising from, the top of a pre-constructed, underlying "podium" building structure 22, such as a parking garage.
  • a pre-constructed, underlying "podium" building structure 22 such as a parking garage.
  • podium structure 22 includes, among other structural elements, a distributed row-and-column array of columns, such as those shown at 22 a .
  • a distributed row-and-column array of columns such as those shown at 22 a .
  • frame structure 20 included in frame structure 20, and arranged therein in what has been referred to as a row-and-column array, are plural, upright, elongate columns, such as those shown at 24, 26, 28.
  • the long axes of columns 24, 26, 28, are shown at 24 a , 26 a , 28 a , respectively.
  • collar structures, or collars also referred to as collar-form interconnect structures
  • 30, 32, 34 are elongate horizontal beams 36, 38, 40, 42, 44, 46, 48.
  • Collars 30, 32, 34 as is true for (and with respect to) all of the other collars employed in frame structure 20, are substantially alike in construction.
  • Collar 30 accommodates the attachment to column 24 of beams 36, 38.
  • Collar 32 accommodates the attachment to column 26 of beams 38, 40, 42.
  • Collar 34 accommodates the attachment to column 28 of beams 42, 44, 46, 48.
  • the row-and-column array of columns in frame structure 20 is such that the long axes of the associated columns are not aligned on a one-to-one basis with the long axes of previously mentioned columns 22 a in podium structure 22. It should further be noted that the bases of the columns in structure 20 may be anchored in place near the top of the podium structure in any suitable manner, the details of which are neither specifically illustrated nor discussed herein, inasmuch as these anchor connections form no part of the present invention.
  • a nodal region (or node) is one which employs previously mentioned collar 34.
  • collar 34 per se should be understood to be essentially a detailed description of all of the other collars employed in frame structure 20. With respect to this description, four orthogonally associated, outwardly facing, planar faces 28 b , 28 c , 28 d , 28 e , in column 28 are involved.
  • FIG. 2 shown in dashed lines at 46 a is a representation of an optional conventional beam "fuse" which may be used in the beams in structure 20, if so desired.
  • a fuse as a plastic yield protector is well understood.
  • Representative fuse 46 a appears only in Fig. 2 .
  • Collar 34 includes an inner collar structure (or column-attachable member) 50, and an outer collar structure 52. These inner and outer collar structures are also referred to herein as gravity-utilizing, bearing-face structures, or substructures.
  • the inner collar structure is made up of four components shown at 54, 56, 58, 60.
  • the outer collar structure is made up of four components (or beam-end attachable members) 62, 64, 66, 68. Each of these components in the inner and outer collar structures is preferably made off the job site by precision casting and/or machining, with each such component preferably being pre-assembled appropriately with a column or a beam, also at a off-site location.
  • Inner collar components 54, 56, 58, 60 are suitably welded to faces 28 b , 28 c , 28 d , 28 e , respectively, in column 28.
  • Outer collar components 62, 64, 66, 68 are suitably welded to those ends of beams 42, 44, 46, 48, respectively, which are near column 28 as such is pictured in Figs. 2-6 , inclusive.
  • Component 58 includes a somewhat planar, plate-like body 56 a , with an inner, planar face 58 b which lies flush with column face 28 d .
  • Body 56 a also includes a planar, outer face 58 c which lies in a plane that slopes downwardly and slightly outwardly away from the long axis 28 a of column 28 (see particularly Figs. 3 and 5 ).
  • Face 58 c is referred to herein as a bearing face.
  • cleat 58 d Projecting as an island outwardly from face 58 c as illustrated is an upwardly tapered, wedge-shaped cleat 58 d which extends, with generally uniform thickness, from slightly above the vertical midline of component 58 substantially to the bottom thereof.
  • the laterally and upwardly facing edges of cleat 58 d are underbeveled for a reason which will become apparent shortly. This underbeveling is best seen in Figs. 3, 4 and 6 .
  • Cleat 58 d is referred to herein also as cleat structure, and as gravity-effective, first-gender structure.
  • inner collar component 58 connects, in a complementary manner which will now be described, with outer collar component 66 in outer collar structure 52.
  • the somewhat planar body of component 66 has an outer face 66 a which is welded to beam 46, and which is vertical in disposition in structure 20.
  • Component 66 also has a broad, inner face 66 b which lies in a plane that substantially parallels the plane of previously mentioned component face 58 c in inner collar component 58. Face 66 b is also referred to herein as a bearing face.
  • cleat 58 d is referred to herein collectively as gravity-mating cleat and socket structure.
  • the three lateral walls of socket 66 c are appropriately angled to engage (fittingly) three of the underbeveled edges in cleat 58 d .
  • Socket 66 c is also referred to herein as gravity-effective, second-gender structure.
  • components 58, 66 formed at the two lateral sides of component 66 are four, counter-sunk, bolt-receiving bore holes, such as those shown at 66 d , 66 e , 66 f , 66g.
  • Formed in the lateral edges of component body 58 a are three related notches, such as those shown at 58 e , 58 f , 58g.
  • Notches 58 e , 58 f , 58g align with bore holes 66 e , 66 f , 66g, respectively, when components 58, 66 are properly seated relative to one another as pictured in Figs. 1-5 , inclusive.
  • Figs. 4 , 5 and 6 illustrate the central axes of these (and other non-membered) boreholes, and how these axes (certain ones of them) align with the mentioned and illustrated notches.
  • the notches herein are also referred to as bolt clearance passages.
  • Figs. 1-6 sets of appropriate tension bolts and nuts are employed to lock together the components that make up the outer collar structures.
  • four sets of four nut and bolt assemblies join the sides of outer collar structure components 62, 64, 66, 68, extending at angles as shown across the corners of the resulting outer collar structure.
  • Four such assemblies are shown generally at 70, 72, 74, 76 in Fig. 2 .
  • Assembly 74 as seen in Fig. 4 , includes a bolt 74 a with an elongate shank 74 b that extends, inter alia , in the bolt-clearance passage created by notch 58 f and by the counterpart notch present in adjacent component 56.
  • These nut and bolt assemblies effectively lock the outer collar structure around the inner collar structure, and impede vertical movement of the outer collar structure relative to the inner collar structure.
  • the bolt and nut assemblies also perform as tension-transmitting elements between adjacent outer collar components with respect to moment loads that are carried in the beams which connect through collar structure 34 to column 28.
  • the bolt and nut assemblies assure a performance whereby each moment load in each beam is delivered by collar 34 in a circumsurrounding fashion to column 28.
  • FIGs. 7-10 these four drawing figures (herein new and different reference numerals are employed) help to illustrate certain assembly and operational features and advantages that are offered by the present invention.
  • Figs. 7 and 8 illustrate stabilizing, positioning, and aligning activities that take place during early building-frame assembly during lowering of beams into place for connection through the collars to the columns.
  • Figs. 9 and 10 illustrate generally how the apparatus of the present invention functions uniquely to handle moment loads that become developed in the beams, and specifically how these loads are handled by delivery through bearing face compression to and around the long axis of a column. As will become apparent, some of the moment-handling performance which is pictured in Figs. 9 and 10 also takes place during the events pictured in Figs. 7 and 8 .
  • FIG. 7 there are illustrated, fragmentarily and in solid lines (moved positions), two upright columns 100, 102, and a not-yet-in-place, generally horizontal beam 104.
  • Column 100 is appropriately equipped, at a desired elevation, with an inner collar structure 106, and column 102 with a similar inner collar structure 108.
  • inner collar structures 106, 108 are relevant. These include, in collar 106, an inclined bearing face 106 a and an associated cleat 106 b , and in collar 108, an inclined bearing face 108 a and a projecting cleat 108 b .
  • columns 100, 102 are shown inclined away from one another as pictured in the plane of Fig. 7 , and specifically with their respective long axes, 100 a , 102 a , occupying outwardly displaced angles ⁇ 1 and ⁇ 2 , respectively, relative to the vertical. Reference to these angular displacements being outward is made in relation to the vertical centerline of Fig. 7 . It should also be noted that the angular vertical misalignment pictured in columns 100, 102 has been exaggerated for the purpose of exposition and illustration herein.
  • the out-of-verticality condition (as a practical reality) will typically be modest enough so, that upon lowering of a beam into position for attachment, such as lowering of beam 110 for attachment (through collar components 106, 108, 110, 112) to columns 100, 102, the confronting bearing faces and cleat and socket structure present in the opposite ends of the beam will be close enough to one another to cause the components to engage without special effort required to cause this to happen.
  • components 106, 110 begin to contact one another, as do also components 108, 112.
  • the respective confronting (and now engaging) cleats and sockets begin to nest complementarily.
  • the underbeveled edges of the lateral sides of the cleats in cooperation with the matching complementary lateral surfaces in the gathering sockets, to draw the two columns toward one another.
  • the two columns are shifted angularly toward one another (see arrows 115, 117) into conditions of correct relative spacing, alignment and relative angular positioning, with beam 110 ending up in a true horizontal disposition.
  • a true horizontal condition for beam 104 depends, of course, upon the columns having the correct relative vertical dispositions.
  • Figure 7 has been employed to illustrate a specific condition in a single plane where two columns are effectively splayed outwardly away from one another, the columns might be in a host of different relative angular dispositions in relation to the vertical. For example, they could both effectively be leaning in the same direction as pictured in Fig. 7 , or they could be leaning toward one another. Further, they could be leaning in either or all of those different kinds of conditions, and also leaning into and/or out of the plane of Fig. 7 .
  • Fig. 8 pictures schematically this more general, probable scene of column nonverticality. It does so in a somewhat three-dimensional manner.
  • single elongate lines are pictured to illustrate obvious representations of an array of columns (vertical lines) and a layer of beams (angled lines) interconnected to the columns through collars which are represented by ovate shapes that surround regions of intersection of the beams and columns.
  • Black ovate dots which are presented on certain regions of the lines representing beams, along with single-line dark arrows, suggest, in the case of the black dots, former non-vertical, angular positions for the upper regions of the adjacent columns, with the arrows indicating directions of adjustments that occur as various ones of the different beams are lowered into positions between the columns.
  • a column 120 having an elongate axis 120 a coupled through a collar 122 to four beams, only three of which are shown in Fig. 9 -- these being illustrated at 124, 126, 128. Digressing for just a moment to Fig. 10 which shows the same beam and column arrangement, here, the fourth beam 130 can be seen.
  • Fig. 9 beams 124, 128 are shown loaded with moments, such being represented by arrows 132, 134, respectively. Focusing on just one of these moments, and specifically, moment 132, this moment is coupled by bearing-face compression through the inner and outer components of collar 122, as indicated by arrow 136. It is thus through compression that the moment load experienced (as illustrated in Fig. 9 ) by beam 124 is communicated, at least partially, by collar 122 to column 120.
  • the outer collar structure within collar 122 also delivers compression through bearing faces that are present on the right side of collar 122 in Fig. 9 . Such compression delivery is illustrated by arrow 138 in Fig. 9 .
  • moment 132 is delivered through bearing-face compression to angularly spaced locations that are distributed around (at different angular locations relative to) the long axis 120 a of column 120.
  • major load handling capability of column 120 is called upon and used immediately to deal with moment 132.
  • Fig. 10 illustrates how lateral loads may come into existence in the beams so as to create, in a particular plane of beams, horizontal moment loads such as those illustrated by arrows 140, 142, 144, 146. If such moment loads come into existence, each one of them is effectively delivered as bearing-face compression through collar structure to plural, angularly distributed sides of columns, such as column 120.
  • Such plural-location compression delivery of moment loads 140, 142, 144, 146 is represented by arrows 148, 150, 152, 154.
  • a frame can be employed as pictured in Fig. 1 --, i.e., on top of a podium structure, with respect to which columns in the super structure do not align axially with the columns in the podium structure.
  • An important reason for this advantage is that the structure of the present invention distributes loads in such a fashion that all columns in the row and column array of columns, interconnected through collar form nodes constructed according to the invention, share relatively equally in bearing lateral loads delivered to the superstructure frame. Specifically all of the columns share loads in such a fashion that they can be employed without requiring that they be aligned with underlying structure columns, at least up to certain superstructure building dimensions which are larger than any which would be typically permitted today under currently applicable building codes.
  • a further obvious advantage of the invention is that the components proposed by it are extremely simple in construction can be manufactured economically.
