Abstract

The upper ends of vertical stanchions (1) are spanned by elongate channel members (14) attached to the stanchions (1) via brackets (10). Each channel member (14) is of box-section but open at the top and has an inboard wall (15) with an upper edge portion (16) extending inboard and upwards at an inclination to the horizontal so as to serve as a bottom purlin for a roof of the building. Each bracket (10) comprises a mounting portion (11) secured to an outboard face of the stanchion (1) at the upper end thereof, and a channel portion (12) receiving and supporting the channel member (14). <IMAGE>

Description

SPECIFICATION Agricultural buildings This invention relates to improvements in agricultural buildings.
Conventionally in agricultural buildings, the spaces between the upper ends ofvertical stanch ions usually of I-section are spanned by timber eaves beams and let into cut-outs in the stanchions. The timber eaves beams serve as bottom purlins for roof cladding, support brackets for gutters and provide upper supports for optional walls.
The objective of the invention is to provide an agricultural building wherein the timber eaves beams, the gutters and their support brackets are dispensed with and replaced by elongate channel members which serve as eaves, bottom purl ins for the roof cladding, and gutters and by brackets for the channel members which also serve as convenient upper supportsforoptionalwalls.
According to the invention there is provided an agricultural building wherein the spaces between the upper ends of vertical stanchions arespanned by elongate channel members attached to the stanchions via brackets, each channel member being of boxsection but open at the top and having an inboard wall with an upper edge portion extending inboard and upwards at an inclination to the horizontal so as to serve as a bottom purlin for a roof ofthe building, and each bracket comprising a mounting portion secured to an outboard face of an aforesaid vertical stanchion atthe upperendthereof,and achannel portion receiving and supporting an aforesaid elongate channel member. Vetical cladding serving as a wall forthe building may be included as desired.Such cladding may be notchedt the top to fit around and be supported bythe mounting portionsofthe brackets.
In Figs. 1 and 2 of the accompanying drawings there areshown respectively, in isometricviewand in elevation, an example of a conventional arrangement in the region of the upper end of a vertical stanchion in an agricultural building.
Likewise, in Figs 3 and 4 of the accompanying drawings there are shown respectively, in isometric view and in elevation, an embodiment of the present invention in the region of the upper end of a vertical stanchion in an agricultural building.
Turning firstly to Figs. 1 and 2, there is shown a vertical stanchion 1 of I-section. On the inboard face at the upper end of the stanchion 1 is mounted the lower and outboard of a rafter 2 of I-section and the joint between the stanchion 1 and the rafter 2 is strengthened by a gusset 3. On the outboard side of the stanchion 1 at its upper end there is a cut-out into which is welded an angular bearer4 into which an end of atimber-eaves beam 5 is secured. The beams 5 span the spaces between the upper ends of the stanchions 1 andserveabottompurlinsforroof cladding 6. The beams 5 also support brackets 7 for gutters 8 and provide upper supportsfor optional vertical wall cladding 9.
Turning nowto Figs. 3 and 4,with reference to which an embodiment of the invention is nowto be described by way of example, there is shown the same arrangement as in Figs. 1 and 2 with regard to the stanchion 1, the rafter 2 and the gusset 3. A bracket 10 is provided comprising a vertical mounting channel portion 11 secured to the outboard face ofthe stanchion 1 atthe upperendthereof, and weldedto the portion 11, a larger horizontal channel portion 12.
An end of an elongate channel member 14 is received and supported in the channel portion 12 in endabutting relation with another channel member 14.
The channel portion 12 and the channel member 14 are both of box-section and the inboard wall 15 of the channel member 14 has an upper edge portion 16 extending inboard and upwards at an inclination so as to serve as a bottom purlin forthe roof cladding 6. The optional vertical wall cladding 9can be notched atthe toptofitaroundand be supported bythechannel portion 11.
It is evident that the channel member 14 serves as a gutteraswell as an eavestie spanning the space between theupperends of the stanchions 7. The channel members î4can be supplied in suitable lengths without modifications except where openings are needed for down pipes. It is also not subject to snow load damage as would be the case with the conventional gutter 8 and its bracket 7. Furthermore, there is also avoided the need for modifying the upper ends ofthe stanchions 1. The channel members 14will be of a length equal to the stanchion spacing, typically about 20 feet; this minimises the problem of leakage as compared with conventional gutters.
Stop ends are provided atthe ends of a run of channel members 14. The stop ends are also of box-section and similar in cross-section to the channel members 14exceptthattheinboard and outboard walls thereof are identical with each other and the outboard wall ofthe channel member 14. Where a down pipe is required at one end of a run of channel members 14 an opening is provided in an extended version ofthe stop end.
1. An agricultural building wherein the spaces between the upper ends of vertical stanch ions are spanned by elongate channel members attached to the stanchions via brackets, each channel member being of box-section but open atthetop and having an inboard wall with an upper edge portion extending inboard and upwards at an inclination to the horizontal so asto serve as a bottom purlin for a roof ofthe building, and each bracket comprising a mounting portion secured to an outboard face of an aforesaid vertical stanchion atthe upper end thereof, and a channel portion receiving and supporting an aforesaid elongate channel member.
2. An agricultural building according to claim 1, wherein vertical cladding serving as a wall for the building, is notched atthetop to fit around and be supported by the mounting portions of the brackets.
3. An agricultural building substantially as hereinbefore described with reference to Figs. 3 and 4 of
