- the reinforcing elements 12 may have a reduced cross-section compared to the cross-section of said slabs 11.
- the slabs 11 and the reinforcing elements 12 may have the same height H in order to increase the mechanical resistance of the respective building module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 and to facilitate their coupling with linear or sectional structural elements, in particular linear modules 70; 71 for the formation of pillars 70 or beams 71.
- the width L of the slabs 11 of the body 10 is preferably equal to that of the reinforcing elements 12.
- the peripheral slabs 11 have a greater width than the width of the body 10 so as to create shelf-bound systems, for coupling with further building modules 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71.
- the reinforcing elements 12 in the body 10 may be in the form of a frame so as to stiffen the edges of the building module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71, thus increasing its static and mechanical features so as to support transverse and torsional stresses.
- such frames made with the reinforcing elements 12 may comprise transverse tie bars 101 along the whole width of the building modules 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71.

- each reinforcing element has a thickness of approximately 1.5 cm.
- the total thickness of the coupled elements of said body 10 may be at least about 1/5 of the total thickness of the relevant building module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71.
- the total thickness of the coupled elements of said body 10 may be about 1/4 of the total thickness of the building module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71.

- the thermically insulated filling elements 20 may be made of low-density, high heat-resistant material such as expanded polyurethane, extruded polyurethane, wood fibre, cork, straw or other materials of natural origin, or of two or more multilayer materials with low density and high resistance to thermal conduction.
- these materials can in fact completely fill said cavities, preferably being compressed inside them, so that the filling elements 20 can also have a containing function, as well as a thermal insulation function.
- the compression direction is from a first cover element 30' to a second cover element 30".
- Expanded polyurethane is particularly suitable for such use as it gives the filling element 20 solidity and excellent energy efficiency features.

Abstract
This invention relates to a linear building module (70; 71) for making structural frames of thermically insulated multi-storey buildings, comprising an upper face, a lower face, substantially parallel to said upper face, and four lateral faces, said linear module (70; 71) comprising: an inner body (10) comprising a plurality of structural elements (11; 12) spaced apart from each other so as to form a plurality of cavities, said structural elements (11; 12) comprising at least two perimeter elements (11) arranged on respective opposing lateral faces of said linear module (70; 71); filling elements (20) made of thermically insulated material, placed in said plurality of cavities so as to fill them; and at least two outer cover elements (30', 30") for covering said body (10) and said filling elements (20) at said lower face and said upper face, respectively, said cover elements (30', 30") being blocked, by means of blocking means, to said body (10) so as to form a self-supporting element.
This invention also relates to a kit comprising at least two linear building modules (70; 71) and to a multi-storey building formed by such linear modules (70; 71).
Description
- This invention relates to a linear building module for the making of structural frames of buildings, in particular prefabricated buildings with thermal insulation, building kit comprising such module and building thereof.
- More specifically, this invention relates to a linear building module for the making of multi-storey prefabricated buildings, in particular made of wood, having a high energy efficiency.
- This invention also relates to a multi-storey building constructed using such building modules.
- As is well known, the growth of the world's population and the increased urbanisation of cities requires improvements in construction efficiency, both in terms of the speed at which buildings are constructed and in terms of environmental sustainability. In particular, efforts continue to be made to improve the ecological sustainability of new buildings, minimising the waste of the planet's resources and related CO2 emissions.
- Such issue is all the more pressing in view of the dramatic increase in the demand for housing. For example, more than forty million young people are looking for an independent and stable housing solution in Europe alone.
- However, with current building systems, it would not be possible to meet such demand, both in terms of the time required to build homes and the exploitation of natural resources and the high costs involved.
- In order to overcome these problems, several systems for the construction of buildings have been proposed.
- An example of such systems is described in
European Patent No. EP 2 920 377 B1 . - In particular, such document describes a method of constructing buildings by means of planar-shaped expanded polyurethane (EPS) blocks locked together by means of an external wooden frame, wherein the elements of such external frame are glued, blocked or screwed together with long wood screws so as to lock the EPS block in place.
- However, such construction elements have the following disadvantages:
- poor torsional rigidity and bending strength;
- they do not allow the construction of buildings with more than four storeys;
- it is not possible to use these elements with linear or sectional structures, such as beams or pillars, as the elements that are locked together have little compactness and are in fact disconnected as a whole.
- Other systems are also known which involve making panels or boxes or caissons to form walls, wherein an insulated material is covered on both sides by wood or wood fibre (OSB) material or metal. The resulting panels are generally referred to as 'SIPs' (Structural Insulated Panels). However, these panels are made in such a way as to ensure only good thermal resistance and may be used in a limited number of constructions, as they do not have sufficient resistance to vertical loads to allow the construction of multi-storey buildings using them.
- Additionally, several systems for the construction of prefabricated multi-storey buildings, in particular wooden prefabs, have been developed over the years.
- Generally, such systems involve the use of load-bearing walls which may or may not be subsequently insulated. Among these construction systems, those that can be assembled using the 'frame' method and those that can be assembled using the 'panel' method are known.
- The 'frame' method involves the use of a structure of vertical wooden uprights coupled with additional horizontal wooden elements.
- The 'panel' method on the other hand, involves the construction of multi-storey buildings through the use of load-bearing walls or septa made of lamellar wood with layers that are criss-crossed and coupled together during construction.
- In order to facilitate the assembly of such structures, the Applicant has proposed, in
Italian Patent Application No. 102015000077457 ITUB20155972A1 - In particular, such structural shells consist of a single, seamless element wherein an insulated material may be arranged.
- However, the parts of the building that are to be placed horizontally or inclined may not be constructed with such structural shells. In particular, it is not possible to build slabs or other building coverings, rather it is necessary to interface them with other structural elements, such as beams, generally made of wood, in order to support the vertical loads also in such an arrangement, especially in the case of building slabs with large spans.
- Finally, a number of prefabricated elements are known for the construction of buildings in a time- and cost-efficient manner. Such prefabricated elements usually have pre-assembled dimensions and can be made of steel, concrete or both materials combined.
- By way of example, known prior art
document no. US 10 196 809 B2 - In addition, such prefabricated elements have the disadvantage of being extremely heavy, bulky and difficult to transport and install.
- Further relevant documents of the background art are
European Patent Application No. EP 0 237 044 A1 ,Patent Application No. US 4 187 655 A ,Patent Application EP 2 149 645 A1 andPatent Application US 8 161 699 B2 . However, none of these solutions have optimal structural features that would allow the formation of energy-efficient multi-storey buildings. - A further example of prefabricated modules of known art is described in
WO 2015/071821 A1 . - The aim of this invention is to provide a building module which is able to overcome the drawbacks of the background art.
- In particular, the aim of this invention is to provide building modules for the construction of multi-storey modular buildings.
- Furthermore, it is an aim of this invention to provide a construction kit comprising such building modules for the construction of energy-efficient buildings.
- Moreover, it is the aim of this invention for such modules to be easy to use and replace.
- Further, it is an aim of this invention for such building modules to be used for all building elements, i.e. both for the construction of vertical elements, such as walls or pillars, and for the construction of horizontal or inclined elements, such as slabs, beams, floors or other possible coverings.
- Again, the aim of this invention is for such modules to be economical, both in terms of production costs and the costs of transport, installation, repair, maintenance and replacement.
- A further aim of this invention is for such building modules to allow the construction of slabs and large glass surfaces, while at the same time providing excellent thermal insulation and extreme lightness when compared to building modules of the background art.
- Finally, it is the aim of this invention for such system to have less of an environmental impact than systems of the background art.
- Therefore, an object of this invention is a linear building module for making structural frames of thermically insulated multi-storey buildings as defined in appended
claim 1. - Such linear module may have the features claimed in the relevant dependent claims 2-8.
- A further object of this invention is a kit comprising at least two linear modules for making a structural node of said structural frame.
- In particular, such kit may have the features as defined in the attached claims 9-14.
- Finally, a multi-storey building as defined in claim 15 is a specific object of this invention.
- According to one aspect of the invention, a building module (whether a linear module and/or a panel) for making a thermically insulated multi-storey building comprises an upper face, a lower face, substantially parallel to said upper face, and four lateral faces. In particular, said module comprises:
a body comprising a plurality of structural elements spaced apart from each other so as to form at least one cavity, said structural elements comprising at least two perimeter elements arranged on respective opposing lateral faces of said module; at least one filling element made of thermically insulated material, placed in said at least one cavity so as to fill it; and at least two outer cover elements for covering said body and said at least one filling element at said lower face and said upper face, respectively, said cover elements being blocked, by means of blocking means, to said body so as to form a self-supporting element and responding to local stresses. - According to such aspect of the invention, the structural elements of said body may comprise a plurality of substantially flat slabs arranged transversely between said lower face and said upper face of said building module, each slab being capable of having a dimension equal to a length of said building module. In particular, said slabs may be arranged parallel to each other and spaced apart from each other so as to form said perimeter elements and one or more dividing septa of said cavities.
- Further, according to such aspect of the invention, said structural elements of said body may comprise slabs made of micro-lamellar wood, laminated wood, or plywood.
- Further, according to such aspect of the invention, said structural elements of said body may comprise reinforcing elements made of metal or other material, for example steel, said reinforcing elements being preferably flat or tubular elements or lattice elements, for example hot-drawn or cold-drawn lattice elements.
- Specifically, said reinforcing elements may be coupled to said slabs, for example with a single or double coupling.
- Also according to such aspect of the invention, said building module may comprise transversal elements arranged transversely to said structural elements.
- In particular, said transversal elements may cover two further lateral faces of said building module, thus connecting said perimeter elements.
- Further, according to such aspect of the invention, said at least one filling element made of thermically insulated material may be made of expanded polyurethane, extruded polyurethane, wood fibre, cork, straw, or with a thermically insulated multilayer material.
- Furthermore, according to such aspect of the invention, said cover elements may be wood fibre cladding, OSB cladding, plywood cladding or cement fibre cladding, while said transversal elements, when present, may be made of micro-lamellar wood or may be steel plates.
Further, according to such aspect of the invention, such body may be combined with another body containing systems and services with a prefabricated finish cladding. - Finally, according to such aspect of the invention, at least two facing lateral faces may have profiles with complementary curvatures.
- A further aspect of this invention is a kit comprising at least two building modules of the said type and coupling means for coupling said two building modules, said coupling means being preferably clamping elements, in particular steel clamping elements, plates for beams or for pillars, or bolts.
- Another aspect of this invention is a thermically insulated multi-storey building comprising vertical surfaces and horizontal surfaces, in particular walls, pillars, slabs or beams, made by means of building modules or by means of a kit of the said type.
- A final aspect of this invention is a method of assembling a building module of the said type, comprising the following steps:

Figure 12 shows a perspective view of building panels assembled with a suspended ceiling, both prefabricated and modular. - With particular reference to
Figures 1-12 ,numerical reference numerical reference - In particular, the
expression building module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 is used to refer to any module configured for the construction of the different parts of multi-storey prefabricated buildings with high thermal efficiency performance. - In fact, both the
linear modules 70; 71 and thepanels - In particular, each
building module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 comprises an upper face, a lower face parallel to said upper face and four lateral faces. Eachbuilding module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 may consist of elements that can be assembled either in the workshop or on site. As shown in the figures, such building module can be a six-faced rectangular parallelepiped, in particular a smooth rectangular parallelepiped without any particular recesses or indentations. Such shape is particularly advantageous as it allows the formation of buildings and structures in less time than in the case of construction using interlocking modules, where care must be taken in the choice of modules to be used. - In particular, each
building module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 comprises: - a
body 10 made by means of a plurality ofelements -
insulated filling elements 20 made of low-density thermal insulated material, placed in the cavities of saidbody 10 in such a way as to fill them, preferably being compressed therein; and - two cover elements 30'; 30" which cover said
insulated filling elements 20 and saidbody 10 at said upper face and of said lower face, respectively, saidcover elements 30', 30" being blocked on saidbody 10 by means of blocking means. - Such coupling between the
body 10 and thecover elements 30', 30" is particularly advantageous as it makes it possible to obtain a self-supporting element with good resistance to possible stresses in the various directions. - In particular, the structure shown in
Figures 1a and1b can be made exclusively usingbuilding modules 1; 1b; 1c, 70, 71 by first making the structural frame by means of the linear modules (inparticular beams 71 and pillars 70), and subsequently coupling it toinfill panels 1 to create load-bearing perimeter closure walls, to horizontal load-bearing panels 1b to make slabs, and/or tohorizontal cladding panels 1c, for example to make the roof. - Advantageously, such structure can be built more quickly than structures made with the modules of the background art, as structural frames can be formed using the linear or
sectional modules 70, 71 (i.e. beams and pillars) that are already insulated and are fire-resistant according to the current fire resistance class REI 240. - As shown in
Figures 2-7 , thebody 10 of eachmodule flat slabs 11 arranged parallel to each other and transverse to said lower face and said upper face. - In particular, the
slabs 11 may have the same length as saidbuilding module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 and may be spaced apart from each other so as to form a plurality of vertical cavities. - In addition, two
respective slabs 11 can form two opposite lateral faces of thebuilding module 1; 1b; 1c, 70, 71. -
Said body 10 can be made of wood or steel or both materials. - In order to improve the structural properties of
such body 10 while minimizing the weight of thebuilding modules 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71,such body 10 may comprise saidwooden slabs 11 together withsteel reinforcing elements 12 coupled to saidwooden slabs 11, for example tubular or lattice-shapedsteel reinforcing elements 12 that may have been hot-drawn or cold-drawn. - In the case of
linear modules 70; 71, the reinforcingelements 12 may be made of steel or other material. - In this case, the reinforcing
element 12 may also have a box shape or be traceable to commercially available profiles such as HEA, IPE and similar, which are also insulated with EPS or similar foam. Furthermore, thelinear modules 70; 71 can be enclosed within box-shaped elements, for example made of insulated material covered in material such as fibre cement, REI panels, finishing panels or anything else, to form an additional cavity. - In this way, it is possible to form a plurality of box-shaped elements, for example with coinciding small faces, arranged one inside the other, wherein said further cavity can be advantageously intended for the passage of corrugated system conduits having a small diameter, for example connectable to the systems in the non-load-bearing
panels - In any case, due to the conformation of the
building modules 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71, the reinforcingelements 12 may have a reduced cross-section compared to the cross-section of saidslabs 11. - The
slabs 11 and the reinforcingelements 12 may have the same height H in order to increase the mechanical resistance of therespective building module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 and to facilitate their coupling with linear or sectional structural elements, in particularlinear modules 70; 71 for the formation ofpillars 70 or beams 71. - In addition, the width L of the
slabs 11 of thebody 10 is preferably equal to that of the reinforcingelements 12. Preferably, theperipheral slabs 11 have a greater width than the width of thebody 10 so as to create shelf-bound systems, for coupling withfurther building modules 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71. - The reinforcing
elements 12 in thebody 10 may be in the form of a frame so as to stiffen the edges of thebuilding module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71, thus increasing its static and mechanical features so as to support transverse and torsional stresses. Referring in particular toFigure 7 , such frames made with the reinforcingelements 12 may comprise transverse tie bars 101 along the whole width of thebuilding modules 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71. - Further, each
element body 10, in particular eachslab 11, preferably has a thickness of at least 1/8 of the total thickness of thebuilding module 1; 1b; 1c to be formed. By way of example, if thebuilding module 1; 1b; 1c is 30 cm thick, the thickness of eachslab 11 is approximately 4 cm. - In case the
body 10 also comprises reinforcingelements 12, the latter may preferably have a thickness of at least 1/20 of the total thickness of thebuilding module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 to be formed. - For example, in the case of
building modules 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 with said thickness of 30 cm, each reinforcing element has a thickness of approximately 1.5 cm. - Thus, in the case of a single coupling between
slab 11 and reinforcingelement 12, the total thickness of the coupled elements of saidbody 10 may be at least about 1/5 of the total thickness of therelevant building module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71. Similarly, in the case of a double coupling between aslab 11 and two reinforcingelements 12, the total thickness of the coupled elements of saidbody 10 may be about 1/4 of the total thickness of thebuilding module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71. - In the example of
building modules 1; 1b; 1c having a total thickness of approx. 30 cm, the thickness of said single-coupled elements is approx. 5.5 cm, while the thickness of said double-coupled elements is approx. 7 cm. - In particular, a single coupling means a coupling between a
slab 11, preferably made of wood, and areinforcement 12, while a double coupling means a coupling between aslab 11, preferably made of LVL, and tworeinforcements 12 placed at the sides of saidslab 11. Preferably, thereinforcements 12 are flat steel reinforcements in both cases. - As mentioned above, the
slabs 11 can be micro-lamellar wood (LVL)slabs 11 or laminated wood or plywood or other environmentally sustainable material, while any reinforcingelements 12 can be made of steel or other alloy and can be flat or tubular or box-shaped elements or hot- or cold-drawn steel lattice elements. - Further, the
slabs 11 preferably cover at least two outer sides of eachbuilding module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71, preferably two outer sides parallel to each other. - Furthermore, even more preferably, the
slabs 11 covering said two outer sides can be connected by means of a transversal reinforcingelement 50 placed in saidbuilding module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 or at the remaining outer sides of saidbuilding module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 in order to support the transversal forces exerted by the wind and/or earthquakes. - The thermically insulated filling
elements 20 may be made of low-density, high heat-resistant material such as expanded polyurethane, extruded polyurethane, wood fibre, cork, straw or other materials of natural origin, or of two or more multilayer materials with low density and high resistance to thermal conduction. - These materials can in fact completely fill said cavities, preferably being compressed inside them, so that the filling
elements 20 can also have a containing function, as well as a thermal insulation function. - Preferably, the compression direction is from a first cover element 30' to a
second cover element 30". - Expanded polyurethane (EPS) is particularly suitable for such use as it gives the filling
element 20 solidity and excellent energy efficiency features.
The use of expanded polyurethane guarantees optimal thermal performance and allows the formation ofbuilding modules 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 that are extremely lightweight as compared to the background art. - In addition, the
modules 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 formed in this way have excellent resistance to transverse, bending and torsional loads. - Thanks to such features, the
building module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 thus formed can also be used with traditionallinear structures 700 made of steel or reinforced concrete, as shown inFigure 8 , or withlinear modules Figures 1a ,1b ,9a, 9b and10 and as better illustrated below. - Each insulated filling
element 20 preferably has two parallel faces having the same width L and the same height H as the inner and outer faces of eachslab 11 of saidbody 10, saidinsulated filling elements 20 further having a thickness substantially equal to the distance of afirst slab 11 of saidbody 10 from thenext slab 11, so that saidinsulated filling elements 20 remain embedded in the cavities. - In addition, thermically
insulated filling elements 20 can advantageously be used as additional stiffening to thebody 10, preventing it from bending and torsional stresses. - In other words, the filling
elements 20 can be made of low-density thermal insulated material such as expanded polyurethane (EPS). - Consequently, the
building panels linear modules - The cover elements 30'; 30" of each
building module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 can be clad with wood fibre material or OSB (Oriented Strand Board) wood or wood cement (fibre cement) cladding, or with plywood or fibre cement, the latter making the block fireproof and protected against water and weathering. - Therefore, the cover elements 30'; 30" can be made to form an outer structural skin made of wood fibre or OSB (Oriented Strand Board) wood or plywood or wood fibre or cement fibre.
- The
building module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 may be made by blocking, by means of clamping means, eachslab 11 of saidbody 10 to a first cover element 30' so as to form a self-supporting element, and by interposing aninsulated filling element 20, in particular a rectangular parallelepiped-shapedfilling element 20, between twoconsecutive slabs 11. - The
body 10 and theinsulated elements 20 thus coupled are finally covered by thefurther cover element 30". - In addition, each
building module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 may be made so as to be particularly lightweight, when compared with other building modules of known art. In fact, since thebody 10 can be made of micro-lamellar wood (LVL) or wood, with optionally the addition of said reinforcingelements 12 made of steel with reduced cross-section, the final weight of eachbuilding module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 is advantageously reduced compared to the modules of known art. In addition, a structural frame built usingsuch building modules 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 has the known advantages of being a dry system. - Each
building module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 may preferably have a thickness varying between 150 mm and 500 mm, a width varying between 200 mm and 2500 mm and a length varying between 1000 mm and 18000 mm. - In any case, the total dimensions of each
building module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71, i.e. its width L1, its height H1 and its thickness S1, can be appropriately chosen according to the requirements of the construction drawings, e.g. generated by means of BIM (Building Information Modelling). In particular, the width L1 can be dimensioned on site by cutting the fillingelements 20 along a longitudinal direction so that the cavities of thebody 10 can be filled when it is built. - Each
building module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 can be used in the construction of a high energy performance multi-storey building. - In particular, the
building modules 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 can be advantageously used to make: - multi-storey buildings with full-light glazed infills;
- multi-storey buildings with very large rooms with no inner walls;
- buildings on pilings;
- pergolas; and
- greenhouses,
- In fact, once formed, the
building modules 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 can be coupled to each other by means of coupling means, such as structural wood screws or bolted steel brackets, as shown inFigures 3-10 . - In particular, the brackets allow the building panels 1a; 1b; 1c to be used in conjunction with various traditional construction elements, such as sectional elements like pillars and beams 70; 71, whether they are filled with steel or reinforced concrete reinforcements.
- The wood screws may preferably be arranged in the shape of a cross, screwed onto an inner face of each
building module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 to be coupled, or they may be structural wood screws 90, in particular long wood screws 90, so as to couple eachbuilding module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 transversely across their full width or according to other anchoring methods. - Finally, the
building panels 1; 1b; 1c may be coupled to the structural frame by means ofsteel elements 60 through clampingcomponents 100, as shown inFigure 8 , or by means of asteel clamping system 103 coupled toappropriate plates building module 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 itself, as shown inFigures 9a and 9b . - In addition, said
transverse reinforcements 50, which may be made of micro-lamellar wood (LVL), may be placed at the ends of thebuilding modules 1; 1b; 1c. As mentioned, suchtransverse reinforcements 50 can also be accommodated in the cavities ofmodules 1; 1b; 1c themselves to increase their resistance to horizontal and torsional forces, such as a gust of wind and an earthquake. - As shown in
Figures 9a, 9b and10 , thelinear modules 70, also referred to assectional elements 70, can be coupled to each other and/or to therespective building panels 1; 1b; 1c by means of aclamping element steel clamping elements 103 and/or appropriatefirst plates 104 for beams orsecond plates - The
plates - Such
linear modules 70 can therefore be coupled together to form a structural node, as shown inFigures 9a, 9b and10 . - Thanks to this feature, one type of connection alone can be provided for the formation of different structures, including structural nodes, thus reducing design and production costs and simplifying the assembly and supply of individual elements.
- This makes it possible to industrialise the construction of entire buildings by means of a prefabricated system comprising
linear modules 70 of the type described, i.e. comprising lamellar wood and micro-lamellar slabs 11 (e.g. Kerto, LVL) with the possible integration of metal elements in the core, such as nodes made of steel or other material, while varying only the dimensions according to the architecturally required structural pitch and height. - In addition,
linear modules 70, such as beams and pillars, can advantageously have the same insulation as theother building panels 1; 1b; 1c, thus ensuring a homogeneous transmittance value throughout its entire development. - In particular, the
linear modules individual slabs 11, and/or may be covered with other fireproof material on all faces, including theouter slabs 11. - In the case of prefabs of known art, wherein the beams and pillars consist of traditional masonry elements with internal metal profiles, there may be a variation in the thermal transmittance values that could lead to evident phenomena of condensation inside the walls of the building, as well as resulting in significantly lower performance and efficiency than the proposed system.
- Finally, thanks to the special shape of the
linear modules 70 described above, it is possible to create any type of infill, whether it consists of prefabricated walls, full-length glazed infills or other material. - Therefore,
building modules 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 can be advantageously used for the construction of structural elements with large spans. - Advantageously, the infill can be carried out at any time, at the same time as the installation of the structure in
linear modules 70 or later, thus optimising the progress of the work, especially in the event of variations during construction. - It is well known that variations during construction due to new architectural or plant engineering requirements are difficult to apply without significant costs; the proposed prefabricated system overcomes such a disadvantage.
- In fact, a prefabricated system with a frame structure consisting of insulated structural
linear modules 70 connected together on site or in the workshop, makes it possible to use theother building panels 1 as internal and perimeter infills with a non-structural function. - This means that systems can be easily inserted therein without compromising or affecting the load-bearing structure. For example, it is possible to lay pipes in the
building panel 1 during the prefabrication step. - In the case of
modules 1 having a structural function, horizontal passageways must be limited, as they would interrupt the resistant section in the prefabricated wall and any upgrading of the systems on the installed load-bearing wall would be impossible without affecting the load-bearing capacity of the element itself. - On the contrary, inserting systems into internal infills with a non-structural function ensures they are easy to maintain. As shown, such systems can be connected by means of elements fed through corrugated conduits arranged in the
linear modules 70; 71. - In this case, the
infill panels 1 and/or thehorizontal cladding panels 1c can be clad with cover elements on both faces, inside of which systems such as underfloor heating systems or photovoltaic panels are arranged, thus reducing the costs of installation on site and optimising production in the workshop. - Such cover elements can in turn be removably coupled to the remaining part of the
respective panel panel - In addition, the clamping
elements modules 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 may comprise connecting means to connect the systems in thenon-structural panels linear modules 70; 71. - Another added value of the load-bearing frame system made of prefabricated and insulated
linear modules 70 is the possibility of repairing the infills locally, as it is also possible to replace some of themodules 1 that form the horizontal walls of the prefabricated building without compromising the load-bearing structure. - Therefore, with reference to
Figures 1b ,1c ,9a and 9b , a building kit can be provided for the formation of a structural frame, comprising at least eightlinear modules linear modules 70 are of the vertical type for the formation of pillars, and fourlinear modules 71 are of the horizontal type for the formation of beams, and associated clampingelements Figure 1c . - Such kit may also comprise at least one horizontal load-
bearing building panel 1b for the construction of the slab, and/or onehorizontal cladding panel 1c for the construction of the roof, and/or aninfill panel 1 for the construction of the perimeter walls. - In this way, a prefabricated building could be constructed by first making the frame by joining several structural nodes made from the
linear modules bearing panels 1b of such kit, and then attaching the walls or cover elements made from thefurther infill panels 1 and thehorizontal cover panels 1c or by means of glass walls, which act as infills. - In other words, the structural frame of a thermically insulated building may be achieved by a construction method comprising the step of coupling at least eight
linear modules 70; 71 together to form the structural frame of a room. - In particular, a room made using the kit described above may have a square or rectangular cross-section, with possible diagonal bracing, and vertical and
horizontal panels - Therefore, the relevant thermically insulated building may be made by successively coupling at least one panel to said structural frame for the formation of the
slab 1b, ahorizontal cover 1c and/or aninfill wall 1 of said building. - As already mentioned, the
infill panels 1 and thehorizontal cover panels 1c are advantageously removable, e.g. for maintenance, adaptation to new standards, and/or the integration of new systems, without compromising the stability of the building. - Prefabricated systems of known art, such as the one described in
WO 2015/071821 A1 , instead require the removal of all the walls above the one to be replaced, and therefore are not as easy to apply as the proposed system. In fact, thanks to the presence of a load-bearing frame, theinfill panels 1 and thehorizontal cladding panels 1c will always be removable as they are not structural, regardless of the storey of the building involved. - Thanks to such feature, given that it is a modular system, the shape and/or the façades of a building constructed with the
building modules 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 can be varied without the need to recalculate and modify the structure as a whole, except in the case of major modifications. In this sense, it would even be possible to vary the number of storeys by removing one or more of the upper modules - thus allowing them to be reused for other buildings - without the need to redesign the remaining underlying part of the initial building and for structural interventions to it. -
Such building modules 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 can therefore be disassembled either into their individual elements or as a whole from buildings made fromseveral modules 1; 1b; 1c; 70; 71 formed with each other and reused reassembled in different buildings. - This represents a completely innovative advantage over known prefabricated buildings, which can only be reassembled according to the same scheme wherein they were assembled.
- In the alternative embodiment shown in
Figures 11 and 11b , at least two facing lateral faces 107 of eachbuilding panel 1; 1b; 1c may be curved, so that they can be adapted to special construction requirements, for example to create complex, non-orthogonal shapes. - Finally, as shown in
Figures 11 and12 , a cladding can be mounted on eachbuilding module 1; 1b; 1c so that once themodule 1; 1b; 1c is positioned, it has at least one finished surface. - The preferred embodiments have been described above and variants to the invention have been suggested, but it shall be understood that the invention may be modified and/or adapted by experts in the field without thereby departing from the scope of the inventive concept, as defined in the claims herein.
