Definitions
- the present disclosure relates, in its most general aspect, to the building field, and more specifically to a building construction for dwelling or commercial use.
- the building construction according to the present disclosure is of modular type, i.e., it comprises a plurality of modules or basic units apt to be placed side-by-side and stacked at will to obtain a building construction of given size and shape.
- a building construction by modules is already known since long time, both in the field of cement building and in metal constructions.
- the existing modules have a container-like shape; namely, it is a container-like construction system, in which each module already includes in advance all of the six walls (floor wall, ceiling wall, and four side walls).
- a drawback lies in the fact that a limited versatility was found in the design and manufacturing modes of such modular building constructions.
- the configuration of a modular building construction can be selected only on the basis of the number of modules and the side-by-side placing/stacking modes of the modules, thereby causing a certain rigidity in the option of a selection in advance, that is to say, a priori, of the finishing, like e.g. the position of windows, walls, terraces or balconies, porches and alike finishings.
- versatility offered by the modular system is applicable only to the ways with which the individual modules are placed side-by-side and/or stacked. It is therefore a limited modularity.
- a further drawback lies in the fact that it is moreover necessary to separately design all hydraulic and electric systems for the building construction, only after the final shape of the building construction has been selected.
- a technical problem underlying the present disclosure lies in providing a modular building construction allowing to overcome the drawbacks of the known art, i.e. whose structure allows a high versatility of design, as well as providing a related method of designing.
- the present building construction provides several relevant advantages.
- a first advantage lies in the fact that each module can, in turn, be disassembled into individual pieces (frame and covering elements) structurally independent thereamong, and selectively associable in a predetermined way, therefore a priori, in particular depending on the final building construction that is to be obtained.
- the modular building structure is obtained by modules, each of which is in turn conceived as a plurality of structurally independent elements, i.e., a frame and the assortment of covering elements, associable thereamong.
- each covering element has a coupling profile adapted to be placed matching with a corresponding coupling profile of another covering element of said assortment and/or of said frame lying adjacent thereto in the modular building construction.
- the modular building construction comprises at least one side wall adapted to be interposed between the floor wall and the ceiling wall, and constituting a side of the parallelepiped, and said side wall includes a coupling profile adapted to be placed matching with a corresponding coupling profile of one or more covering elements lying adjacent to the side wall in the modular building construction, and/or of said frame.
- a designer may include in the design only the frame and those pieces or covering elements that serve to obtain the individual module in a complete form.
- the frame includes four column elements arranged at the four corners of the parallelepiped, to the advantage of constructive simplicity of the entire modular building construction.
- the assortment of covering elements comprises one or more first plane external covering element adapted to be horizontally placed on an external side, at a side of said floor wall and/or said ceiling wall, and one or more angular external covering element adapted to be vertically placed on an external side, at a respective column element.
- the building construction should comprise two or more modules side-by-side, a designer may include in the design only two frames, and those covering elements selected from the assortment that are needed for the desired configuration of the building construction to be obtained.
- the assortment of covering elements comprises one or more first plane external covering element adapted to be horizontally placed on an external side, at a side of said floor wall and/or said ceiling wall, one or more first angular external covering element adapted to be vertically placed on an external side, at a respective column element, one or more second plane external covering element adapted to be vertically placed on an external side, at two adjacent column elements, and a plane internal covering element adapted to be vertically placed on an internal side, at the two adjacent column elements.

- the ceiling wall and/or the floor wall include predefined housings for receiving portions of hydraulic and electric installations that, once connected thereamong, allow to obtain an entire hydraulic or electric system of the building construction.
- a further advantage lies in the fact of knowing a priori where the electric and hydraulic installations of the building construction lie, for any repairs and/or replacements.
- the disassembling of the module into frame and covering elements allows to design "on paper” costs, materials and pieces of the entire building construction, also with regard to electric and hydraulic installations.

Abstract
Description
- The present disclosure relates, in its most general aspect, to the building field, and more specifically to a building construction for dwelling or commercial use.
- Even more specifically, the building construction according to the present disclosure is of modular type, i.e., it comprises a plurality of modules or basic units apt to be placed side-by-side and stacked at will to obtain a building construction of given size and shape.
- A building construction by modules is already known since long time, both in the field of cement building and in metal constructions. In such known building construction the existing modules have a container-like shape; namely, it is a container-like construction system, in which each module already includes in advance all of the six walls (floor wall, ceiling wall, and four side walls).
- Such a modular building construction, though advantageous under a plurality of standpoints, entails several drawbacks.
- A drawback lies in the fact that a limited versatility was found in the design and manufacturing modes of such modular building constructions. In fact, the configuration of a modular building construction can be selected only on the basis of the number of modules and the side-by-side placing/stacking modes of the modules, thereby causing a certain rigidity in the option of a selection in advance, that is to say, a priori, of the finishing, like e.g. the position of windows, walls, terraces or balconies, porches and alike finishings. In other words, in known building construction, versatility offered by the modular system is applicable only to the ways with which the individual modules are placed side-by-side and/or stacked. It is therefore a limited modularity.
- A further drawback lies in the fact that it is moreover necessary to separately design all hydraulic and electric systems for the building construction, only after the final shape of the building construction has been selected.
- A technical problem underlying the present disclosure lies in providing a modular building construction allowing to overcome the drawbacks of the known art, i.e. whose structure allows a high versatility of design, as well as providing a related method of designing.
- Said technical problem is solved by a modular building construction according to claim 1, and by a method of designing a building construction according to
claim 19. - Secondary features of the building construction and of the related method according to the present disclosure are defined in the corresponding dependent claims thereof.
- The present building construction provides several relevant advantages.
- A first advantage lies in the fact that each module can, in turn, be disassembled into individual pieces (frame and covering elements) structurally independent thereamong, and selectively associable in a predetermined way, therefore a priori, in particular depending on the final building construction that is to be obtained.
- In fact, the modular building structure is obtained by modules, each of which is in turn conceived as a plurality of structurally independent elements, i.e., a frame and the assortment of covering elements, associable thereamong.
- Preferably, in order to facilitate construction modes, each covering element has a coupling profile adapted to be placed matching with a corresponding coupling profile of another covering element of said assortment and/or of said frame lying adjacent thereto in the modular building construction.
- Even more preferably, the modular building construction comprises at least one side wall adapted to be interposed between the floor wall and the ceiling wall, and constituting a side of the parallelepiped, and said side wall includes a coupling profile adapted to be placed matching with a corresponding coupling profile of one or more covering elements lying adjacent to the side wall in the modular building construction, and/or of said frame.
- Thanks to this possibility of dis-assemblage it is possible to rapidly design modular building constructions including a single module, as well as modular constructions including plural modules.
- In fact, for instance, if the building construction is made up of one module, a designer may include in the design only the frame and those pieces or covering elements that serve to obtain the individual module in a complete form.
- In a preferred embodiment, the frame includes four column elements arranged at the four corners of the parallelepiped, to the advantage of constructive simplicity of the entire modular building construction.
- In this latter preferred embodiment, in case the building construction comprises one module, the assortment of covering elements comprises one or more first plane external covering element adapted to be horizontally placed on an external side, at a side of said floor wall and/or said ceiling wall, and one or more angular external covering element adapted to be vertically placed on an external side, at a respective column element.
- If instead the building construction should comprise two or more modules side-by-side, a designer may include in the design only two frames, and those covering elements selected from the assortment that are needed for the desired configuration of the building construction to be obtained.
- In fact, preferably, the assortment of covering elements comprises one or more first plane external covering element adapted to be horizontally placed on an external side, at a side of said floor wall and/or said ceiling wall, one or more first angular external covering element adapted to be vertically placed on an external side, at a respective column element, one or more second plane external covering element adapted to be vertically placed on an external side, at two adjacent column elements, and a plane internal covering element adapted to be vertically placed on an internal side, at the two adjacent column elements.
- Essentially, such covering elements include plate-shaped pieces, therefore plane elements, adapted to be placed on the sides of the frame, at the ceiling wall and floor wall, or at connecting zones between side walls, or angular covering elements adapted to be placed at the corners of the frame.
- Thanks to the fact of having a frame (floor wall, ceiling wall, and said one or more column elements) structurally independent from the covering elements, it is possible to modularly conceive the entire building construction, also as to hydraulic and electric systems for the air-conditioning of the building construction.
- In fact, it is possible to associate in advance to each frame a portion of the hydraulic and electric system (ducts, service pipes, wirings and the like).
- Thus, upon selecting the number of frames, and their mutual arrangement, also the cost both of the whole building construction and of the hydraulic and electric system associated thereto can easily be estimated a priori.
- In this regard, preferably, the ceiling wall and/or the floor wall include predefined housings for receiving portions of hydraulic and electric installations that, once connected thereamong, allow to obtain an entire hydraulic or electric system of the building construction.
- A further advantage lies in the fact of knowing a priori where the electric and hydraulic installations of the building construction lie, for any repairs and/or replacements.
- In other words, the disassembling of the module into frame and covering elements allows to design "on paper" costs, materials and pieces of the entire building construction, also with regard to electric and hydraulic installations.
- Preferably, the entire building construction is of wood, and each element of the construction (frame and covering elements) has a multilayer structure of wood and wood-based composites, such as to obtain, post-assembly, a high thermal insulation of the building construction. Moreover, the use of a multilayer wood structure allows to control in a targeted manner, by layer selection, the desired thermal insulation of the building construction.
- Therefore, it is obtained a building construction modular and compatible with the actual needs of reduction of energy consumptions, whose manufacturing can easily be estimated a priori "on paper".
- Further advantages and features according to the present disclosure will be made apparent to those skilled in the art from the following non-limiting detailed description of an embodiment thereof.
- However, it is evident how each embodiment of the present disclosure could have one or more of the advantages listed above; anyhow, it is not required for each embodiment to concomitantly have all of the advantages listed.

Figures 32-44 show respective sectional views of parts of the building construction ofFigure 1 during subsequent assembling steps. - Referring to the annexed figures, by
reference number 10 it is indicated a building construction according to the present disclosure. - In particular, the
building construction 10 is of modular type, and comprises a plurality of modules orbasic units building construction 10 is wood-based and wood composite-based, and it is a construction having high thermal insulation features. - Therefore, each
module modular building construction 10. - In the example illustrated in
Figures 1 to 10 , it is possible to observe that thebuilding construction 10 comprises a first-type module 12, a second-type module 13 and a third-type module 14, wherein themodules type module 12. - More specifically, each
module type 12, second-type 13 and third-type 14 modules differ thereamong only in length dimensions L1, L2, L3, the lengths L2 and L3 being a multiple integer of the respective length dimensions L1. In practice, in the illustrated example the first-type modules 12, the second-type modules 13 and the third-type modules 14 differ only in the different length dimension L1, L2, L3. Even more specifically, the first-type module 12 has the following dimensions (in length L1 × width L' × height H) of 250 cm × 250cm × 270 cm, the second-type module 13 has the following dimensions (in length L2 × width L' × height H) of 500 cm × 250 cm × 270 cm, whereas the third-type module 14 has the following dimensions (in length L3 × width L' × height H) of 750 cm × 250 cm × 270 cm, respectively. - In all cases, nothing prevents the
building construction 10 from being made only of first-type 12, second-type 13 or third-type 14 modules, all modules being, as mentioned above, units that can be brought near and connected thereamong. - The height H of 270 cm is consistent with current regulations for the height of rooms for household use. In case of rooms for commercial use the height H is modified in accordance with laws in force, to a height, e.g., of 300 cm.
- In the
building construction 10 there are singled out an external side and an internal side, that is to say, a side facing a zone included inside eachmodule module - Though taking into consideration the difference among each
module building construction 10, will indistinctly and overall refer to the one or the other module, generally denoted byreference numbers - In particular, the
module - a
frame 11 including afloor wall 18, aceiling wall 19, and one ormore column elements 30, in the example fourcolumn elements 30; and - an
assortment 15 of coveringelements frame 11. - In the example, the
assortment 15 includes a limited number of elements, for instance fiveelements Figure 11 ) which will be detailed hereinafter. - This means that the
building construction 10 according to the present disclosure comprises a plurality ofmodules module predefined frame 11, and various covering elements selectively couplable with theframe 11. - In other words, each
module final building construction 10 that is to be obtained. - This disassembling for each
module frame 11 and finishingelements 15 allows to design "on paper" costs, materials and pieces of theentire building construction 10. - Moreover, thanks to the fact of having, on the one hand, a frame made of a
floor wall 18, aceiling wall 19, andcolumn elements 30 and, on the other hand, coveringelements 15, it is possible to modularly conceive theentire building construction 10, also concerning hydraulic and electric systems for the air-conditioning of thebuilding construction 10. - In this regard, it is in fact possible to associate in advance a portion of hydraulic and electric system to each
frame 11, so that, after having connected all frames 11, an entire hydraulic or electric system of thebuilding construction 10 can be designed a priori. - In particular, in this regard, as will be illustrated hereinafter, the
floor wall 18 and theceiling wall 19 of eachmodule building construction 10. - Specifically, the
floor wall 18 and theceiling wall 19, whose contour or outline is schematically illustrated inFigure 12 and Figure 13 , are alike therebetween and comprise a rectangular panel of preset length L1, L2, L3, depending on the selected length of therespective module Figure 12 it is illustrated thefloor wall 18 or theceiling wall 19 for the third-type module 14. - In practice, the dimensions of length L1, L2, L3 and of width L' of each
module floor wall 18 and theceiling wall 19. - Even more specifically in the example, the
floor wall 18 and theceiling wall 19 are each a multilayer body including channels or passages for the housing of ducts and hydraulic pipes and electric cables needed for the respectively hydraulic and electric systems of thebuilding construction 10. - In fact, as mentioned, the inclusion in the
floor wall 18 andceiling wall 19 of such channels and passages for hydraulic and electric systems allows to adapt and conform in the concept ofmodule building construction 10. In other words, a designer of thebuilding construction 10 can design and count in an a priori predefined way the hydraulic and electric systems of thebuilding construction 10 already from the number offloor walls 18 andceiling walls 19 that thebuilding construction 10 contains. - The channels and passages of the
floor walls 18 and of theceiling walls 19 of eachmodule building construction 10, to obtain one or more hydraulic circuits and a given electric network. - In addition, the
floor wall 18 has a structure adapted to guarantee a satisfactory thermal insulation of thefloor wall 18 with respect to the outside. - In particular, referring to
Figures 15 and32 , thefloor wall 18 comprises, from the bottom, i.e. from the external side of thefloor wall 18, asupport base 118a, including afirst panel 119 of OSB (Oriented Strand Board, i.e. a panel of wood material manufactured with synthetic resins and thin veneers, called "strands"), a first set ofbeams 120 of laminated wood, arranged parallel at a suitable mutual distance, asecond panel 121 of OSB, and a fillingpanel 128 of wood fibre placed between thebeams 120 and the twoOSB panels - The
first panel 119 serves to close and protect theentire floor wall 18 from a ground or bottom. - The
floor wall 18 further comprises a partially hollow portion, including arecess 118b intended for housing the hydraulic and/or electric systems. In said portion it is provided a second set ofparallel beams 122, placed above thesecond panel 121 at a given mutual distance, athird panel 123 of OSB, alayer 124 of wood fibre having a thermoinsulating function, and acoating layer 125. Thebeams 122 of the second set are arranged along a direction parallel to the direction of thebeams 120 of the first group. - Each floor wall of each
module adjacent module - As it is possible to observe in
Figures 32 to 44 , theentire floor wall 18 rests on height-adjustable brackets 21. - In particular, in
Figures 32 to 44 it is illustrated, in a small-sized constructive model, a construction mode of thebuilding construction 10 from thefloor wall 18, as will be illustrated more clearly hereinafter. - In case the
floor wall 18 has a side placed at the external periphery of thebuilding construction 10, it is provided an interconnecting element 126 (visible both inFigure 15 and inFigures 32 to 44 ) of laminated wood, which is placed on said side of thefloor wall 18 for interconnection with a first planeexternal covering element 34, which will be described hereinafter. The interconnectingpanel 126 is connected to thebeams 120 of the first set by a male/female or tenon/mortise connection 126a, as visible inFigure 32 . - The
floor wall 18 further comprises one ormore impressions 27 obtained according to needs in the twolayers internal wall 80, which will be described hereinafter. - Similarly to the
floor wall 18, the ceiling wall 19 (Figure 14 ) includes, from the bottom, i.e. from the internal side of theceiling wall 19, apanel 131 of gypsum fibre, alayer 132 of wood fibre having a thermoinsulating function, afirst panel 133 of OSB, and arecess 134 intended for housing hydraulic ducts and electric cables. Therecess 134 is defined between a first set ofbeams 135 of laminated wood, placed at a suitable mutual distance. Above therecess 134, theceiling wall 19 comprises asecond panel 136 of OSB, a second set ofbeams 137 of laminated wood, placed parallel, athird panel 138 of OSB and a fillingpanel 139 of wood fibre, interposed between the second set ofbeams 137, and thesecond panel 136 and thethird panel 138. - Also the
ceiling wall 19 includes animpression 28 for housing apartition 80. - In case the
ceiling wall 19 has a side placed at the external periphery of thebuilding construction 10, an interconnectingelement 126 of laminated wood (Figure 15 , andFigures 36 to 44 ) is provided which is placed on said side of theceiling wall 19 for interconnection with the first planeexternal covering element 34, which, as mentioned above, will be described hereinafter. - The
column element 30 offrame 11, illustrated in detail inFigures 16, 17 , comprises an elongate body having the shape of a substantially square-section parallelepiped, in the example having a side L'30 of 12cm. - The
column element 30 has a length dimension L30 equal to 277.5 cm, said length being selected depending on the height H to be obtained inside themodule column element 30 is interposed between thefloor walls 18 and theceiling walls 19, and constitutes a load-bearing element for supporting theceiling wall 19. InFigure 2 and inFigure 3 it is visible thecolumn element 30 interposed between thefloor wall 18 and theceiling wall 19. Thecolumn element 30 is connected to the twofloor 18 andceiling 19 walls with means of a type known in the woodworking field, like e.g. screws. - In the example, the
column element 30 is made of laminated wood. - Besides the above-mentioned
covering elements 15, thebuilding construction 10 comprises aside wall 20, whose contour or outline is schematically illustrated inFigure 18 and inFigure 19 , which constitutes a front for thebuilding construction 10, and allows to laterally close the space comprised betweenconsecutive column elements 30. - The
side wall 20 comprises a panel having a generally rectangular shape, of width dimension L'20 equal to 226 cm, length L20 equal to 289.5 cm or 373.5 cm, said length being selected depending on the height H to be obtained inside the room of themodule - From an analysis of the width L'20 of the
side wall 20, it is found that theside wall 20 has dimensions such as to cover each side of width L' and length L1 of the first-type module 12, whereas twoside walls 20 and threeside walls 20 are needed to cover a long side of length L2 and L3, of the second-type module 13 and third-type module 14, respectively. - In practice, in the example, the
side wall 20 is an element suitable for anymodule - Even more specifically, referring to
Figure 19 , theside wall 20 has aside profile 22, at the sides of theside wall 20, provided with a plurality of shoulders and recesses. In particular, on each side, theside profile 22 comprises afirst recess 23, in the example obtained on the external corner of theside wall 20, ashoulder 24, asecond recess 25, in the example deeper than thefirst recess 23, and a thirdslight recess 26. -
Second recess 25 andthird recess 26 are intended to face the inside of thebuilding construction 10. - The above-mentioned
side profile 22 of theside wall 20 is adapted to be placed matching withother covering elements 15 of thebuilding construction 10 which lie adjacent to theside wall 20, as will be explained hereinafter. - The
side wall 20 is completed by aprojection 142a lying at a top edge (saidprojection 142a is also visible inFigures 20 ,34 , and38 ), and anotherprojection 143a obtained on an opposite bottom side (visible in the drawings offigures 20 ,34 , and38 ). Alsosuch projections side wall 20 with other elements of thebuilding construction 10 that lie adjacent thereto. - Also the
side wall 20 has a structure such as to allow to obtain a high thermal insulation. In particular, in the side example theside wall 20 has the following multilayer wood structure.
In particular, referring toFigure 20 or toFigure 34 , theside wall 20 includes, from the outside, awood chipboard 140, known e.g. under the trade name of DWD AGEPAN, useful for strengthening and resistance to wind, as well as for protection from atmospheric agents in the construction stage, and a pair of horizontally arrangedtransversal elements panels 144 of flexible wood fibre, e.g. known under the trade name of Thermoflex, apanel 145 of OSB, in the example a panel comprised of pine wood veneer strips having a length of from 120 to 150 mm that, as is the case for plywood, are overlapped and oriented at 90° one another, having high stability and sturdiness. Theside wall 20 further comprises a flexiblewood fibre panel 146 as further thermal insulation / acoustic insulation, aPVC duct 147 for various installations, and a gypsum fibre andcellulose panel 148 as support for internal side plaster. - It may be observed that the
transversal elements top projections side wall 20. - Moreover, it may be observed that the above-mentioned
side profile 22 of theside wall 20 may be obtained by suitably sizing the width of the individual panels and layers constituting the multilayer structure of theside wall 20. - The above-mentioned
covering elements 15 comprise the first planeexternal covering element 34, mentioned above and seen in detail inFigures 21 and 22 , adapted to be horizontally placed on a respective side of the ceiling andfloor elements building construction 10, with a protecting function. Essentially, the coveringelement 34 is placed so as to cover the thickness S of the ceiling andfloor elements building construction 10. This function of the covering element is clearly seen inFigures 32 to 44 , where the connection with the above-mentionedinterconnecting element 126 is visible. - Moreover, in
Figures 4 and5 it is possible to observe the coupling of each first planeexternal covering element 34 on a respective side of the ceiling andfloor elements - The first plane
external covering element 34 has a variable length L34, in the example of 223, 423, 723 cm depending on themodule module element 34 has a height H34 of 42 cm. - The first plane
external covering element 34 has a mainly rectangle-like section (seeFigures 21 and 22 ), and comprises, at two consecutive corners of along side 34a of the rectangle, twoopposite notches - In particular, the first plane
external covering element 34 is placed on the external side of the floor andceiling elements such notches building construction 10. Saidnotches element 34 with remaining elements of thebuilding construction 10 which lie adjacent thereto, as will be described hereinafter. - Referring to
Figures 32 to 44 , and in particular as is visible infigure 32 , the first planeexternal covering element 34 has the following multilayer wood structure, guaranteeing high thermal insulation. In particular, the first planeexternal covering element 34 comprises awood chipboard 150, known e.g. under the trade name of DWD AGEPAN, a pair of laminated wood beams 151, 152 with a supporting function, alaminated wood post 153 and awood fibre layer 154 comprised between the pair ofbeams post 153. - The first plane
external covering element 34 further comprises a plurality of notches, generally denoted byreference number 155, in which are adapted to be housed corresponding pegs, not visible in the drawings, projecting from the interconnectingelement 126 of thefloor wall 18, and of theceiling wall 19, respectively. - The above-mentioned
covering elements 15 further comprise a second planeexternal covering element 40, visible inFigures 23, 24 , which is adapted to be interposed, on the external side of thebuilding construction 10, betweenadjacent side walls 20 of twomodules Figures 4 to 7 ). - The second plane
external covering element 40, having a substantially rectangle-shaped section, has a width L'40 equal to 12 cm, and a length L40 of 277.5 cm. The second planeexternal covering element 40 comprises, at two consecutive corners, twoopposite appendages long side 40a of the rectangle, respectively each at one of the twoshort sides - Each
appendage respective notch element 34 lying adjacent thereto in thebuilding construction 10, and to a respectivefirst recess 23 of theside wall 20. - In
