Description

The current. The invention relates to a method for con-

  truction, for producing an insulating wall comprising posts and wall elements intended to be mounted between the posts. The invention also relates to a wall element, for carrying out this method of construction.

  This method of construction is applicable. to buildings

  various elements, in particular to achieve

  so-called light tructions, for technical buildings

  or housing, or to make partitions.

  To build buildings intended to be

  born on site by separate elements, to be assembled at 1 '

  place, or to construct prefabricated buildings

  bricks, intended for example to house workers on a construction site, we often use elements of

  intended to be juxtaposed in a contiguous manner

  to form complete walls. These elements of

  wall must be self-supporting and insulating

  the desired level of lightness and comfort. To manufacture them, one can first build an external frame whose dimensions correspond to those of the completed element. This frame is normally constituted

  in wood or metal and has vertical poles.

  Each element is completed by means of an external plate

  for example in lacquered aluminum sheet, and a wooden interior plate. The complete element is then placed in a press to inject a

  polyurethane foam between the faceplate

  from and the inner plate. The foam abounds and ensures a complete filling of the internal volume, while adhering to the two plates, so as to ensure

  same time the strength and isolation of the element

  to-wall carrier thus realized. We then show

  seems floor elements and elements

  in this way, to build the building

prefabricated building.

  However, these known elements, particularly to

  walls, have various defects and

  seriously. First, because of the differences

  between the expansion co-factors of the materials concerned, the inner and outer plates of each wall element have different behaviors. He can

  resulting from extensive tearing of the insulating foam

  to the point of jeopardizing the strength of the

  wall. In addition, these different expansions cause difficulties at the joints between plates of adjacent elements, and these plates can

  therefore have protuberances

  sion or, on the contrary, deviate from each other by

  contraction forming undesirable interstices.

  If the wall elements have nailed plates

  these deformations can separate the plates by

  wearing to their fixing nails. To avoid these defects, it was sought to connect to each other the outer plate and the inner plate of each wall element. But a

  such a connection leads to thermal bridges if one uses

  metal parts and imposes external plates

  heavy enough to give sufficient strength to the wall element. This makes the product very expensive and also means that the weight of the item is

increased.

  The object of the invention is to remedy defects

  and the disadvantages just described, in order to achieve

  in a simple way an insulating wall, whose elements are economic to manufacture and are not likely to deform undesirably once mounted, without

  to form no thermal bridge.

  According to the invention, the construction method de-

  Finished above is characterized in that the retaining posts of the wall elements are mounted, either from below or from above, by fixing them to a connecting element such as a horizontal beam; in that

  we climb between the poles of each pair an element

  wall, of such dimensions as the songs of the ele-

  adjacent to each other, by enclosing the posts, and in that the posts are then fixed, either at the top or at the bottom, on

  a connecting element such as a horizontal beam.

  Also according to the invention, the element de.mur per-

  implementing the construction method described above

  defined above is characterized in that it is intended to

  to be mounted on poles with trans-

  symmetrical profile, at least in relation to

  to the axis passing through the center of the post and perpendicular

  to the cutting plane; and in that it presents on

  each edge a profiled longitudinal groove, cor-

  corresponding to the profile of half a pole.

  Thanks to the special arrangements just mentioned, wall elements no longer encumber

  general efforts affecting the building, since these

  forts are picked up by the posts. As a result,

  wall elements have a filling function, which

  gives them a better configuration

  asked. The construction process complies. The invention is both simple and fast execution, to be carried out either in the factory or on site on the construction site itself. Another advantage lies in

  the risk of thermal bridges is removed,

  that the insulating elements of the walls enclose each post. In addition, it is easy to change a wall element that has been damaged, or to change the distribution of windows and doors. Moreover, it is possible, thanks to the invention, to build

  buildings of various sizes, since each

  re of poles defines a modular gap in the-

  which one can mount wall elements according to demand. Thanks to the wall elements according to the invention, one can achieve waterproof walls and having no thermal bridge, since the wall elements form an uninterrupted surface on either side of each post.

  Advantageously, the wall element comprises

  a soul made of insulating material,

  on the other hand, a coating surface.

  cation of the wall element according to the invention.

  using any material desired to achieve

the walls.

  Other features and advantages of the invention

  will again emerge from the description of a mode of

  preferred embodiment, presented below as an example

  non-limiting ple, with reference to the accompanying drawings in which: Figure 1 shows an example of a frame formed of beams and columns, before the establishment of wall panels, Figure 2 shows the frame of Figure 1 with the wall panels put in place,

  FIG. 3 is a diagrammatic section of an assembly

  ge on a corner post, following III-III of Figure 2, Figure 4 is a schematic section of a wall and

  of a partition, according to IV-IV of Figure 2.

  The frame shown by way of example in Figure 1 is intended to provide a floor, four walls and a ceiling. Each of these parts is mounted

  part of the framework, so that each

  that wall element interests down a horizontal beam

  tale 2, at the top a horizontal beam 5, and at each corner two vertical posts 9. The elements 2, 5, 9

  framing are common to wall elements

  Underlying. Between the horizontal beams 2, 5, are arranged amounts 1, preferably spaced regularly.

  Figure 3 shows a section of a column of

  9. Like the other sections, this post is

  preferably made of extruded aluminum alloy.

  The post 9 is hollow and can, if necessary, be housed with an insulating material. On each side face, the post 9 is provided with a projecting boss 10 which

  extends over the entire length of the pole.

  FIG. 4 shows a sectional view of an upright 1 disposed between the beams 2 and 5, and having in cross section a symmetrical oval profile following its two

  axes. Half a pole 1 is thus equal to the bos-

  protruding edge 10 of the corner post 9.

  It is thus possible to mount each of the wall elements 3 between two adjacent posts 1 or between a post 1 and a corner post 9. As the posts 1 are preferably spaced regularly, the wall elements 3 can be produced in series and can be

interchanged, as needed.

  As can be seen in FIGS. 3 and 4, each wall element comprises a core 7 made of insulating material,

  for example based on polyurethane or polyester wool

  che, and two facing faces 8 glued to. 7. The facing faces are made of any suitable material, for example based on

  glass, wood or metal. To avoid distortion

  protuberances by buckling, the edges of the

  facing faces are trimmed, and the joints

  respondents are covered in any known manner.

  The edge faces of each wall element 3 are each provided with a groove 6 whose profile in cross section corresponds to the profile of the projecting boss 10 of each corner post 9, or to the profile

half of a post 1.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the construction thus produced may comprise a partition wall,

  whose edge is held by an auxiliary section 11.

  This one is for example fixed first to a face of

  coating 8, on which the element

wall 3.

  Thanks to this method of assembly of the wall elements, it ensures for the posts a mounting embedded in the core of the wall elements, which avoids the effects of thermal bridge through the walls. The edges of the wall elements constituted by a lateral face of the foam core are closely applied against one another,

  ensuring a tight seal for the wall.

  We will now describe the construction process

  according to the invention. We first proceed with the assembly of the floor, for example in the same way as for the other parts of the building, then we go up

  the corner posts 9 on the lower chaining beam

  2, by means of appropriate fixing devices

  requested. For this purpose, the beam 2 comprises fixing means for receiving each post. The wall elements 3 can then be mounted, by introducing them from the top, between two adjacent posts 1, or between a post 1 and an angle post 9. Thus, the four walls shown in FIG. the ceiling or roof can be made in the same way, or the roof of the building can be

any suitable way.

  If necessary, as shown in the figure

  2, some wall elements may have a window

  be or a door. Of course, these elements

  a profiled groove 6 is applied to each of their edges (FIG. 4) in order to be able to fit exactly on the profile of the posts 1 or projecting bosses

corner posts 9.

  On the other hand, it is possible, if necessary, to stick to each other the songs 4 of the adjacent elements 3 of the walls

  and ensure the watertightness in each place by the ex-

  interior, filling the joint with a

  appropriate elastic filling.
