Definitions

• the present invention relates to an improved wall construction of the sandwich panel type.
• the invention allows in particular the construction of wooden buildings, individual houses, scenerys, offices, garages, swimming pools.
• the assemblies are delivered in kit form and assembled on site according to a particularly efficient and rapid construction process.
• a first problem in the prior art is that the installation inside the sandwich of the insulation and the passage of the technical sheaths must be carried out at a precise phase of the site where a first wall is mounted on the upright spacers while the second wall is not yet mounted. This leads to coordination of the various trades with increases in intervention time and inherent costs.
• a second problem is that at the end of construction the houses quickly show aging defects with the appearance of cracks and deformation of the structures. These particularly visible problems with wood structures arise in particular of the structures which work and due to a relaxation in the aging of the fixing devices between the various constituent elements.
• An object of the invention is to reduce work on the site as much as possible.
• the invention thus proposes assembly elements which assemble with great ease, requiring almost no work of screws or sawing on the site.
• the construction is thus designed on plan, then machined, pieces by pieces in the factory.
• the parts are then mounted in assembly modules on an assembly ban.
• the parts being delivered in kit on site.
• the construction phase therefore requires only a simple assembly work.
• An object of the invention is to deliver elements of assemblies to the site which incorporate insulation and finishing and even possibly painting. Work on site requiring almost only assembly work and almost no finishing work.
• An object of the invention is to propose modules manufactured in the factory on the line and repeatedly with very simple manufacturing means. These parts are designed so that it is possible to assemble a house with a minimum of elementary parts manufactured in factory.
• the assembly according to the invention can be made of wood composite materials or any other provided that they are structuring.
• an object of the invention is to be able to produce these joining pieces with the maximum of short wood or scrap wood.
• An object of the invention is to propose assembly elements which have an optimum volume for transport and for storage.
• the invention thus makes it possible to constitute an industrialization, storage and transport sector which is separate according to the nature of the parts. All the parts can then be assembled on site or at a dealer just before the construction of the house. It is for example possible to create a specific die for the spacer uprights and another specific die for the side walls. It becomes possible with the invention to transport the elements of the house not assembled but ready for assembly in a transport truck of traditional size and not subject to the regulations on exceptional transport.
• the invention allows foundations to build, from foundations to the smallest finish, a 100m2 house in less than a fortnight for two people who are not specialized in woodworking or house building.
• An object of the invention is to provide a sandwich assembly which has technical characteristics superior to those of the prior art.
• the wall design according to the invention has higher mechanical resistance to earthquakes than those on the market. This is because the structure by design is autoprteuse.
• the phonic and thermal characteristics are equivalent to those of the most efficient on the market.
• An object of the invention is to provide a removable construction which can then be rebuilt elsewhere. According to the invention, partial or entire recycling of the building is possible.
• An object of the invention is to be able to build in places known to be difficult, accessibility of the site, space around the site, noise pollution for the surroundings.
• the only constraint being to have a solid but rudimentary foundation, the building can be mounted on stilts.
• An object of the invention is to construct walls or walls without any visible screws.
• the invention provides an improved sandwich wall assembly.
• the constructions being carried out with these assemblies which include in particular a set of spacer upright and set of side walls.
• a specificity of the spacer upright according to the invention being both to assemble in overlapping by fitting with other spacer uprights but also to fit laterally with the wall panels constituting the exterior and interior walls of the wall.
• the strut amounts have a substantially oblong parallelepiped shape, with an upper face and a lower face, and with four lateral faces.
• the upper face of the spacer upright interlocking with the lower face of any other spacer upright. From a set of spacer studs, we can therefore build a post.
• a strut has a length of about 50 cm to constitute with five strut struts the height of a floor of traditional size.
• the height of the spacer uprights is designed to a length which may be specific.
• the spacer upright has lateral faces called wall faces which have the function of serving as a fixing support for the side wall panels on the spacer upright. This attachment is preferably effected by a clever fitting between a first rib disposed on the side wall face and a second complementary rib operated on the side wall panel.
• the spacer upright has lateral faces called lateral spacer faces which have the function of serving as a fixing support between the spacer uprights when in certain arrangements the latter are mounted side by side.
• This fixing is preferably carried out by a clever fitting between a first rib (split or female) arranged on the lateral face of the spacer with a first spacer post and a second complementary rib (split or female) operated on another lateral face of 'spacer of a second spacer.
• This arrangement is useful for situations where the angle is broken and the corner connection is made, for example at the junction of two walls which define the so-called corner corner area, or for situations of structural reinforcement, for example for increase the lift at a specific location on a wall.
• the side walls of the sandwich wall assembly according to the invention are designed in a particular way.
• These side walls o include wall panels.
• the width of the wall panels can be equal to the width of the whole of the wall, the wall panels then interlocking on each other, for example along the vertical for a vertical wall, to constitute once assembled, the entire wall over its height.
• the wall panels consist of wall clapboards and wall crosspieces.
• Clapboards are called a form of plank with an improved appearance which commonly adorns the facades of houses.
• the panels are made up of identical clapboards, four clapboards in the standard model according to the invention, the clapboards being nested along their entire length to each other.
• the siding elements according to the invention having interlocking ribs on the edge of their length.
• the panels are then formed by screwing crosspieces perpendicular to the clapboards.
• the cross section of these crosspieces form a rib of a shape complementary to the rib operated on the wall faces of the struts.
• the crosspieces being arranged on the siding elements at distances then corresponding to the distances separating the uprights of spacers on which the side walls will be fitted.
• the strut struts are fitted with the wall panels. They then constitute a wall frame of length equal to the length of the constituent wall panel and of a height equal to the height of the spacer and of the constituent wall panel.
