Definitions
- This invention refers to a formwork element which is especially designed for the construction of both interior and exterior walls, and for both one-storey and multi-storey buildings.
- Said element allows an easy and fast assembly, which can be cut in order to adequate its dimensions to certain practical requirements.
- the formwork element is designed for the obtention of concrete walls, appropriately reinforced, wherein the pipes or ducts for various services are embedded, with the special feature that said element gives to the walls a high insulation coefficient, both thermal and acoustic.
- the formwork element is useful for industrial buildings, houses, condominiums, garages, swimming pools, cold chambers, etc.
- one solution consists of making said walls with reinforced concrete, pouring the concrete "in situ", after shaping the appropriate formwork.
- these formworks consist of metal plates, appropriately rigidified, which are interconnected forming two parallel vertical planes, appropriately connected by means of spacers, in such a way that once the formwork has been duly configured, the required metal frameworks are introduced therein and it is finally concreted.
- the formwork element proposed by the invention resolves in a fully satisfactory manner the aforementioned problems, since it constitutes a lost element designed to definitively form part of the wall obtained thereby, and, due to its own nature, it incorporates its thermal and acoustic insulation characteristics to said wall. Moreover, it is easily frangible or capable of being cut in order to suit its dimensions to the practical requirements of each case and to create orifices or windows therein in order to access the interior ducts.
- said formwork element is materialised in a body that is essentially rectangular-prismatic, made of expanded polystyrene foam or other material with similar characteristics. It is a hollow body that is open at its faces and provided with internal rigidifying partitions, with the special feature that said body incorporates a plurality of small projections, also rectangular-prismatic, on the periphery of said faces, with a staggered distribution, which define equally-configured housings between one another, so that the projections or cubes on the upper face are opposite the housings on the lower face, which makes it possible to achieve a high solid tongue-and-groove connection between them upon superimposition of the bodies.
- These rectangular-prismatic elements or bodies exhibit a length that is significantly greater than the height and width, so that walls may be constructed in rows, in a manner similar to conventional construction blocks or bricks, the bodies in each row remaining longitudinally offset with respect to the rows located immediately above and below, so that, in turn, these bodies maintain a staggered distribution on the wall which ensures a perfect relative stability for all of them, and which, moreover, allows for "keying" between the walls on the corners or "T" connections.
- the formwork element proposed by the invention is constituted by a rectangular prismatic body (1), for instance, with external dimensions similar to those of a classic construction block, but with the special feature that it is entirely made of hollow, expanded polystyrene foam, open at both the upper and lower faces, and preferably provided with rigidifying interior and transverse partitions (2), whose height is significantly lower than that of the body itself (1).
- These elements may be interconnected by tonguing-and-grooving, as shown in figure 2, for which purpose, on the perimeter of the upper and lower faces, and as an extension of the considerably thick perimeter wall, they exhibit a plurality of small rectangular-prismatic projections (3) in the form of die, which have a staggered distribution and which create housings (4) between one another, which formally and dimensionally coincide with the housings, but there is an offset between the upper and lower faces, so that, when the bodies (1) are stacked, the projections or die (3) of one remain opposite and finally embedded in the other's housings (4), in order to achieve the desired tongue-and-groove effect, which offers high solidity in the co-planar fixing between blocks.
- the block may exhibit four side walls of the same height, as shown in figure 1, or else the smaller lateral walls (5) may be affected by wide indentations (6), as is the case with block (1') shown in figure 2, so that, while in the first case it is only possible to provide vertical metal frameworks, which pass through the modules or elements (1) interior cavities, in the second case, horizontal frameworks may also be provided, specifically located on the indentations (6).
- indentations (6) define longitudinal grooves on the wall for each row obtained by means of bodies (1') of this type, which naturally must be closed at the end, for which this purpose, the existence of bodies (1 ") such as the one shown in figure 3 has been anticipated, with indentations (6) on only one of the smaller side walls (5), while the other one acts as a closure element, exhibiting a height that coincides with that of the larger side walls.
- the larger walls of the bodies (1) create an integral enclosure which corresponds to the internal and external faces of the wall, forming a continuous chamber, closed at the lower end by the floor (7), which is undeformable through the smaller side walls (5) and the interior rigidifying partitions (2) of the prismatic bodies (1), (1'), (1"), a chamber which will subsequently be filled with a mass of concrete (8), which, together with the metal frameworks, grants the wall the appropriate structural rigidity, said mass of concrete (8), however, remaining completely insulated from both the exterior and the interior of the wall, so that, despite its high degree of conductivity, it does not act as a thermal bridge, the larger side walls of the various bodies or modules (1), (1'), (1") defining, respectively, an internal and external barrier to both thermal and acoustic transmission.
- ducts Prior to the pouring of the concrete in the hollow chamber of the formwork, ducts may be provided therein, such as the downpipe (9) shown in figure 4, electric conduits (10), etc., with side accesses (11) and (12) towards the internal or the external face of the wall, which are easily implemented on the formwork due to its own nature, since the expanded polystyrene foam may be easily cut with a saw or any appropriate cutting tool.
- the wall will be completed with any exterior (13) or interior (14) coating, made of any adequate material, in order to provide it with any finishing, such as, for instance, face bricks, plaster, tiles, boarding, wallpaper, etc.
