Description

Waffle box body building technology

Waffle Box construction technology is an alternative prefabricated or cast-in-place construction system that is lighter but also stronger, highly resistant to earthquakes, typhoons and hurricanes, cheaper and easy to obtain, and that aims to address backlog orders in economically applicable houses, public and private schools and other small, medium or large shelters in any country, or in building projects.

The name "grid box" 27 of the present invention is derived from these latter meanings and terms.

The cases (noun) defined by microsoft electronic encyclopedia dictionary are "articles in a square or rectangular shape", "containers … for objects or dry goods", "enclosed areas …", "small buildings for use as a shelter", and "compartments …".

The grid (noun) also defined by the microsoft electronic encyclopedia dictionary is "with a pattern of indentations on both sides" or "as in a split iron core for pancakes".

In technical terms, bulkheads and shear walls (see APA (The Engineered Wood Association, www.apawood.org), Design/Construction Guide), "bulkheads are flat structural units that act like deep, thin beams," as referred to herein, whereas shear walls are vertically cantilevered bulkheads. A diaphragm structure is created when a series of such vertical and horizontal diaphragms are properly connected together to form a structural unit. When using partitions and shear walls in the lateral design of a building, the structural system is referred to as a "box system".

The present invention relates to prefabricated or cast-in-place structural "lattice boxes" 27 made of concrete or other material; with a square or rectangular shape, for use as a delimited area of a shelter or room, with or without wing-like projections 10, 10a, 10b, with perforations for windows 12b, 12c, doors 12, 12a and stairs or elevators etc. 12d forming part of a shelter or building or any other similar structure for a specific use.

In addition, the present invention is a prefabricated or cast-in-place structural "grid" 1, 2 (a thin wall 3 or slab 4 formed partition with a pattern of indentations called ribs in both directions) 5, 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d "boxes" 27 (a series of horizontal and vertical partitions joined together with shear walls for resisting vertical, horizontal, torsional and other building loads) construction technology that resists earthquakes, typhoons or hurricanes at a lower cost than planar walls or slabs.

The lattice walls 1 (vertical) are a combination of thin walls 3 and ribs 5, 5a (walls and columns in conventional designs) (fig. 2a, 4, 5, 6, 25, 29, 29b), the lattice panels 2 (horizontal) are a combination of sheets 4, ribs 5b, 5c (plates, beams and/or beams in conventional designs) (fig. 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 28, 27, 31, 32), and the lattice walls 1 and the lattice panels 2 are joined to each other to form a lattice box 27.

With respect to the prior art or the Philippines Utility model registration No.2-2001-000254, entitled "A Modular Wall Panel for Fence, Housing, or Building Unit", published on 5/19/2005, the manufacturer is the Claude Edwin Andrews of the Philippines Mandaloying City, which requires that the pre-molded Modular panels be laid horizontally while concrete is cast between the joints. Identical modular panels are laid one by one, with some panels having a tongue to achieve a particular height or length. Note that in this prior art panel indentations strictly surround the peripheral edge.

Philippine Utility model registration No. 2-2001-. This lattice box 27 invention defines a very specific thin wall 3 or plate 4 (sometimes also called skin) with a series of indentations (called ribs 5) extending in many directions (not just in the edges) (fig. 2, 29).

The grid box 27 has five (5) faces (type I) (fig. 1, 2, 3, 4, 25, 26) or six (6) faces (type II) (fig. 27, 27a, 28, 29, 29a, 29b), as appropriate. All sides of the lattice box 27 are designed to carry structural (vertical, horizontal, torsional, etc.) loads of the building. The shape of the lattice box 27 may be square or rectangular.

The ribs 5, 5a, 5b, 5c (sometimes referred to as flanges or chords) are rectangular or trapezoidal in shape for easy removal (fig. 2, 2a, 29, 29 b). The arrangement of the ribs 5 to 5d may be vertical, horizontal, diagonal, longitudinal or transverse.

The size and spacing of the ribs 5, 5a, 5b, 5c and their reinforcements is dictated by the number of floors, the use of the structure, the size of the room, the subdivision of the shelter or building and other design factors, and is the product of the structural design. The strict rib (no cross members) design is strong for loads in one direction, while the grid 1, 2 (vertical, horizontal, diagonal, longitudinal or cross members) (fig. 7, 7a, 34) design is strong for loads in two directions. In the same referenced APA design guidance, it is also noted that "diaphragms function in a manner similar to deep or cross beams, with the panels acting as" webs "resisting shear forces, and the diaphragm edge members performing the function of" flanges "resisting bending stresses.

The ribs 5, 5a, 5b, 5c are sometimes redesigned for unique or special purposes. The sleeper beams (corbel)7, 7a, 7b, 7c (fig. 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 16, 38, 39, 40) are for example modified ribs, as the case may be, which will serve to hold and carry the upper lattice box 27, the panel 2 or the wall 1.

The ribs or sleepers 7 to 7d have holes 15, 15a, 15b, 15c, 15d for fixing, lifting and connecting. It also has sockets 14, 14a, 14b, 14c (fig. 9, 10, 12, 13) for mounting or securing dowels or pins 17, 17a (fig. 9, 10, 12, 13, 16, 38, 39, 42), for handling 14b, and for fork lift 14 c.

Some ribs or joists 7 have welded plates 16 (fig. 10, 12, 40, 43, 44) and welded angled plates 16a (fig. 40, 43, 44) for attachment to each other for structural integrity of the shelter or building.

Furthermore, some of the ribs or sleepers 7, 7a, 7b, 7c are also provided with jack cylinders/bolts 13a (fig. 18) or jack bolts 13b (fig. 46) for hoisting purposes. They also have vertical and horizontal targets 22 and matching channels 23 for alignment, better quality control and speed during installation.

On the lower part of the grid box 27, ribs have been developed to mount these sleepers 7, 7a, 7b, 7c as notches 8, 9 (fig. 3, 4, 5, 6, 17, 31, 32, 45). As matching elements for the sleepers 7a, 7b, 7c, (fig. 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 11, 16, 17), the slots 8, 9 have holes 15, 15a, 15b, 15c, 15d, (fig. 5, 7, 9, 11, 16, 17, 38, 39), weld plates 16 (fig. 10, 12) to optimally prepare the lattice boxes 27 of the integrated structural box system for shelter or building.

These mating connectors, like sockets 14, 14a, 14b, 14c, dowels or pins 17, 17a, weld plate 16, weld angle plate 16a, bolts 18, 18a, 18b and holes 15b, 15c, are then secured (fig. 9, 11, 16, 37), grouted (fig. 9, 38), welded (fig. 40), tightened (fig. 11, 39), painted or sealed 21 (fig. 9, 11, 38, 39, 40), etc., to prevent misalignment and corrosion and to ensure structural integrity of the shelter or building (fig. 21, 37).

An optional feature, with a special purpose called winged tab 10, 10a, 10b (fig. 27, 28, 29) or gallery 8 or plate 4, is added integrally to the corner of the box. After installation according to the procedure described in the latter part, the extra space 24 (fig. 21, 27a, 36, 37) or other space surrounding the box 27 receives the required wall covering, plate, gallery or balcony or even another living space without the need for additional work on site.

The perforations for the windows 12b, 12c, doors 12, 12a and stairways or elevators 12, 12a, 12b, 12c, 12d etc. are incorporated in the manufacturing process, forming part of the box 27 for special purposes.

The structural box designed as a lattice 1, 2 is lighter in weight than those using conventional planar wall and column or plate and beam or beam designs, because of the hollow sections between the ribs 5, 5a, 5b, 5c (fig. 2, 29). The wall 3 or plate 4 (sometimes also referred to as a skin) connecting the ribs is generally thinner. Furthermore, the term lattice 1, 2 (fig. 2, 28) fully illustrates this reduced mass.

The reduced mass or volume or weight requires thinner structural members, including foundation 26, and fewer or smaller steel reinforcements or similar structures, so that the shelter or building is less expensive.

Other prior art is worth mentioning as it is useful for understanding the present invention.

Philippines patent No. 24939, published 26.12.1990, entitled "Shell Components and storing Process for Multi-storage Building", inventors: canar v, quinquehony, large Manila, philippines, as claimed in item 1, "a rectangular-like shaped body of unitary precast reinforced concrete with open longitudinal ends," the body having a planar bottom wall, "" a pair of opposed planar side walls, "" a pair of spaced apart outwardly extending column members, "" a pair of opposed support members, "and" a planar top wall. Figures 1 and 2 of the prior art also describe this claim.

The special technical features of a planar box with flat surfaces with end posts differ from the lattice box 27; the grid box 27 has a pattern of thin walls 3 and plates 4 with indentations called ribs 5 to 5 d.

The planar case has posts, while the lattice case 27 does not. The planar box has flat walls, while the lattice box 27 has thin walls 3 with patterned vertical, horizontal or diagonal ribs 5. The planar box is closed on the top and bottom panels while the lattice box 27 may be closed and open, provided that peripheral joists 7, 7a, 7b, 7c, 7d or notches 8, 9 or other ribs for the structural integrity of the lattice box 27 are retained. The lattice box 27 with the open plates 12d is used for stairwells, ventilation shafts, elevators, gutters, porches or the like, whereas a closed planar box does not have these features. The planar case is different from the lattice case 27 in form and appearance.

International application No. PCT/AU2004/001728, by the inventors Stephen Cordell, entitled "Slab Tank".

The grid box 27 construction technology is consistent in its purpose to provide a lighter but equally strong, highly resistant to typhoons, hurricanes and earthquakes, less expensive, and faster construction method to address backlog orders in economically viable houses, public and private schools, and other shelters or construction projects in any country.

The lattice box 27 has punched-through openings on its vertical walls for the windows 12b, 12c and the doors 12, 12a (fig. 5, 6, 30, 31, 32). A door opening 12a (closed during casting, but openable afterwards) (fig. 2, 25) is located more or less at the mid-span of the longer vertical side wall, destined for room extension to the side (fig. 22, 23, 24). This expansion corresponds to a minimum half (1/2) size of the grid box 27 (FIG. 24), to one grid box 27 (FIG. 23), or to a maximum of two grid boxes 27 (FIG. 22), to allow the occupant, user, or purchaser more expansion options.

Some of the box boxes 27 (fig. 27f) have punched-through openings 12d for plates for stairwells, ventilation shafts, elevators, pipe chutes, porches or the like. The openings may be re-sized accordingly, provided that peripheral bolsters or slots or other ribs are retained to maintain the structural integrity of the grid box 27.

Other grid boxes 27 are manufactured with limited or even no walls on the front and back sides (fig. 27e) to give the designer the option of larger windows and doors. In addition to this design option, this type of grid box 27 is best suited for mass production because the free open end feature paves the way for quick and easy dismantling of the internal structure. This also makes the lattice box 27 lighter.

In some cases, the positioning of the grid box 27 may be done perpendicular to the other grid boxes 27 to maintain the structural integrity of the shelter or building in both lateral directions. This type of mixing position requires that some features of the grid box 27 be adaptable.

In addition, in the event that these lattice boxes 27 (without front or rear walls) (fig. 27e, 27f) lack the necessary lateral framing due to the removal of their front and rear walls, the structural engineer can integrate cast-in-place structural elements, such as walls, beams, etc., within the system to complete a structurally viable shelter or building.

Typical features of a five (5) side type I or six (6) side type II grid box 27 are described in the preceding paragraphs.

The type I five (5) sided grid box 27 and the type II six (6) sided grid box 27 have different installation procedures. Both processes are claimed.

A. Type I cell box 27(5 sides, open bottom, set up vertical)

The type I lattice box 27 has five (5) sides. The floor is left open. This opening is designed for mounting to the upper plate of a grid box 27 of the same type I. They are mounted vertically one above the other (fig. 20).

The type I grid box 27 (fig. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7) differs in width and length but is the same in height when positioned in any part of a shelter or building (fig. 26). Type I lattice boxes 27 are installed in linear progression from the foundation 26 or bottom until the boxes reach the highest level (fig. 20, 21); therefore, each column of cases must have the same width, length and height. The user of the present invention may choose another type I box 27 of the same width and length but height in some other part of the shelter or building, but must follow the general rules of installing the same box 27 from the foundation 26 or bottom until it reaches the highest platform (fig. 20, 21).

The practice of using different types of I-grid boxes 27 in a shelter or building provides the user with design flexibility. However, it is recommended that the same box grid 27 be used in any part of the building to save on the cost of building templates and to benefit from economies of scale operations.

A series of pre-designed grid panels 2 or walls 1 (fig. 27d) must be installed around these type I grid boxes 27 to complete the shelter or building structural box system. The detailed specifications of standard connectors, such as dowels or pins 17 to 17b, bolts 18 to 18b, weld plate 16 and weld fillet plate 16a, are available to the user for selection therefrom.

B. Type II cell boxes 27(6 sides, the whole set horizontal, with extra space 24 between cell boxes 27)

The type II lattice box 27 has six (6) sides. They all have the same width, length and height in all parts of the shelter or building (fig. 36, 37).

The type II grid boxes 27 are placed horizontally, spaced apart by a uniform space (fig. 27a), thereby forming an additional space 24 or room or unit therebetween. The centers of the thin walls 3 of the lattice box 27 and the center of the extra space 24 are horizontally equidistant (fig. 36, 37). As a general rule, the centerline of thin wall 3 is in line from foundation 26 (fig. 45) or bottom up to the highest platform. The type II lattice boxes 27 have the same length, width and height (fig. 27 b).

On the next upper level next, the installation of the type II lattice box 27 must start from the leftmost or rightmost extra space 24 directly above and gradually towards the other end (fig. 27 a). The cell walls 1 and 29 are optionally led into an outer end (fig. 27c) to complete the floor or deck of the shelter or building. The horizontal installation of the type II grid box 27 is repeated to the next upper level adjacent thereto until the structural box system of the shelter or building is completed (fig. 27a, 36, 37).

Using this horizontal installation process for type II grid boxes 27 means that when "X" grid boxes 27 are installed, the result is "2X" usable boxes or spaces (fig. 36, 37) are created, with the end grid walls 1 and modular grid wall panels 29 (fig. 36) being introduced to some outer end to complete the structural box system of the shelter or building. As a prefabricated construction system, together with this special method of horizontal installation, the construction period of a shelter or building is much shorter than that of a building carried out using conventional means (column, beam, panel, wall systems).

Assuming that the user of the present invention chooses to design an in-corridor shelter or building (fig. 27a) (two grid boxes facing each other with a common corridor), the horizontal installation of the row of grid boxes 27 facing the first row should be alternated; the lattice box 27 faces the extra space 24 or the extra space 24 faces the lattice box 27 (fig. 27 a). A type II box grid 27 with extended galleries 6 (fig. 27, 27b) is best suited for this design.

The use of type II grid boxes 27 saves the cost of building templates and enjoys the benefits gained from economies of scale operations.

Furthermore, the earlier mentioned prior art uses a similar installation procedure for a porch shelter or building, such as the row (1) shown in fig. 1, 2, 5, 6 and 9 of the invention. The same prior art is useful for understanding the present invention, which gives way to a better or improved horizontal installation procedure according to the object of the present invention for solving backlog orders in economically suitable houses, public and private schools, and other shelters or construction works in any country, by a lighter but equally strong, highly resistant to typhoons, hurricanes and earthquakes, and subsequently cheaper and faster alternative construction system.

Philippine patent No. 24939, published 26 months 12 and 1990, entitled "Shell Components and storing Process for Multi-storage Building"; the inventor: canary v, quinacre, mamanila, philippine, claims are as follows:

the method of claim 5: "A stacking process of shelter sections according to claim 4 wherein installing one shelter section over shoulder portions of two shelter sections comprises a plurality of spaced downwardly projecting anchor bolts oppositely disposed at a bottom portion of the one shelter section adapted to snugly fit to a corresponding plurality of spaced embedded metal tubes disposed over planar side walls of the two shelter sections. "

The method of claim 6: "the stacking process of shelter sections according to claim 4, wherein installing one shelter section over the shoulder portions of two shelter sections further comprises upright angularly bent embedded steel rods with fixedly secured metal plates disposed on opposite planar side walls of the one shelter section adapted to be weldably secured to corresponding angled metal plates fixedly secured to interconnected generally V-shaped steel rods embedded on the shoulder portions of the shelter sections".

Claims 5 and 6 are supported by figures 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 of the invention.

Although it appears that there is similarity in the installation process of both the planar case (prior art) and the grid case 27 (present invention), both having a space between the case and the adjacent case above, etc., there are obvious differences between these two techniques, summarized as follows:

1. although the installation process looks similar, this prior art is not solved or illustrated in the description and by the figures, how stairs, elevators, ducts, ventilation shafts, refuse chutes etc. as vital elements of the shelter or building are introduced during the upward installation of the container. Openings 12d are required in the panels or even walls for accommodating these basic features of the building or shelter. The present invention seeks to provide a unique solution to this need.

The type II six (6) sided grid box 27 of the present invention has similarly arranged cut-through openings (fig. 27f) for stairs, elevators, etc. as in the prior art, but does not require the introduction of any cast-in-place walls or structures to provide those vital openings for shelters or buildings. The stairway can be prefabricated and installed in an open stairwell without the need for cast-in-place operations. The same is true for other, such as elevators etc., since a pre-designed perforated opening 12 has been provided.

The present invention already comprises a perforation opening 12d for stairs, elevators, troughs etc. as vital elements of a shelter or building during installation or stacking, the prior art and the present invention have two different specific technical features. The cast-in-place operation would affect the concept of mass production if those openings were made in-situ.

2. While both the prior art and the present invention are directed to solving backlog orders in economically applicable houses or collective housing and other construction works in any country by means of a stacking or installation process of boxes (fig. 27a, 36, 37 of the present invention), the prior art refers to a shelter or building of the porch type (single row building), as explained in the description of the prior art and shown in fig. 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 of the prior art. The porch-type design, which is a feature of the present invention, utilizes a common corridor or aisle as a habitable unit in residential projects or a common corridor or aisle as a classroom in school projects to maximize field usage.

The invention considers two types of outer corridor type design buildings and inner corridor type design buildings. In addition to the installation or stacking process of the first row of grid boxes 27, there is another unique product and process of installing the second row of grid boxes 27 in the present invention (fig. 27a), which is specifically designed for an interior shelter or building. The grid box 27 has galleries 6 (fig. 27b, 36, 37) as extensions (or wing-like projections) of both the top and bottom plates 4. The protruding length of the corridor 6 is half the width of the aisle. With the first row of installed grid boxes 27 (and with the galleries 6) new grid boxes 27 will be alternately installed in front of the extra spaces 24 (fig. 27a, 27b, 36), aligning the edges of the galleries 6 of both the first and second rows of grid boxes 27 (fig. 27 a). On the next upper level adjacent, the resulting structure will have the upper galleries 6 of the first row of lattice boxes 27 meeting the lower galleries 6 of the second row of lattice boxes 27 (fig. 27 a). This installation process is repeated alternately for the grid box 27 in front of the additional space 24 and the additional space 24 in front of the grid box 27 (fig. 27a, 36). The aisles are completed because the upper and lower galleries 6 of the grid box 27 meet alternately (fig. 27 a). The width of the corridor is the total length of the two converging corridors 6 (fig. 27a, 35, 42).

Similar to the previous description of the type II lattice box 27, the lattice walls 3 and modular lattice wall panels 29 (fig. 27c) are introduced at an outer end to complete the structural box system of the shelter or building.

In the above difference #2, by designing the gallery type high density shelter or building using the present invention, the site is maximized, which is an improvement over the prior art. The costs are cheaper because the costs of utilities, such as walkways, stairs, or elevators, are distributed between facing units.

3. Another unique feature of the present invention is the vertical mounting of the type I lattice box 27(5 sides) up and down (fig. 20, 21). This installation process of the type I lattice box 27 is very different from the stacking process described in the prior art.

All the lattice boxes 27 are pre-cast and mass produced at the manufacturing site with no or in extreme cases very little on-site construction work. All of the grid boxes 27 are identical (except for the perforated panel openings 12) so that the user of the present invention enjoys the benefits of economies of scale production.

Another prior art, philippine patent No. 12302, published 16.1/1979, entitled "Pre-castReinforced Concrete Frame for a Multi-storage Building Construction System," inventor Gregorio c.

"concrete wall structure for use in a multistorey building construction system comprising a set of lower frames anchored to a ground foundation such that the upper horizontal ribs of said lower frames are horizontally aligned with each other, … and a set of upper frames rigidly fixed to the set of lower frames and consisting of spaced apart frames, the vertical ribs of said upper frames being vertically aligned … with the corresponding vertical ribs of the lower frames"

Although the above prior art describes a similar frame stacking process, as in the aforementioned philippine patent No. 24939 using a flat box, there are unique products (grid box 27) and installation processes (except corridor buildings) in the present invention, which distinguish the present invention from the earlier contributions of the mentioned prior art.

Based on the installation process of the above-described gallery-type design shelter or building, the present invention provides a completely different installation concept. Firstly, the gallery concept, secondly the alternate installation of the second row of grid boxes 27, which is not involved in the prior art, and thirdly the vertical installation process of the type I grid boxes 27.

Further, for a type II grid box 27 with six (6) sides, the grid panel 2 merges with the grid walls 1 forming a "Z" notch 9 (fig. 38, 39, 44, 45) at the bottom (fig. 38, 39, 40). These mating connectors, such as sockets 14, 14a, 14b, 14c, dowels or pins 17, 17a, weld plate 16, weld fillet plate 16a, and bores 15b, 15c, are then secured (fig. 37, 39, 40), grouted (fig. 38, 39), welded (fig. 40), tightened (fig. 39), painted or sealed 21 (fig. 37), etc., as previously described, to prevent misalignment and corrosion and to ensure structural integrity of the shelter or building (fig. 37).

Using the present invention, buildings or shelters (fig. 36, 37) designed to have the same room layout per floor (such as in high-rise buildings, in dormitories, in hotels, in collective homes, in schools, etc.) will be easier, faster, and cheaper to build.

The type I box boxes 27 with five (5) sides (without bottom plates) are mounted on top of each other (fig. 20, 21), while the type II box 27 with six (6) sides are mounted alternately above two other box boxes 27 (fig. 36, 37). The lattice walls 1, combined lattice walls 29 and lattice panels 2 are special lattice monobloc units (not manufactured as boxes) that will be integrated at the outer ends and platforms as the case may be (fig. 27c, 36) until the installation of the lattice box 27 shelter or building is complete (fig. 37).

The type I five (5) sided galleries are either pre-cast plates 2 (fig. 26) or cast-in-place plates, whichever is economically feasible.

The topmost platform of the building (fig. 20, 21) using the grid box 27 will be given special attention to control leakage in the future. The ramp and sealant 21 (fig. 42) are necessary for the sealed roof deck (fig. 37).

The design of the cast-in-place foundation 26 (fig. 17, 45) is governed by soil characteristics, height and size of the building, seismic zoning, and other design parameters.

In either type of grid box 27, stairwells, ventilation shafts, elevators, pipe slots, etc. (openings 12d provided as required) are kept open (fig. 27f) while accessories or provisions are provided for their particular use. The stairs may be precast concrete or steel.

In either case, these lattice boxes 27 form additional space around, between, below and above them without the need to spend more cost for vertical support (fig. 20, 21, 36, 37). The present invention, particularly the six (6) sided grid box 27 of type II, creates almost double the amount of available space (fig. 36, 37) without requiring further additional operations and costs, except for some end space (where the box cannot be installed) where the combined grid wall panel 29 ("L" panel) and grid wall 1 are to be installed or constructed (fig. 36).

In free standing dwellings, six (6) sided grid boxes 27 of type II are arranged, spaced apart from each other, some aligned at the front, while others are shifted forwards or backwards as appropriate (fig. 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56) in order for the designer to be creative in terms of aesthetic design and special purposes, such as balconies, stairs, attics, toilets and bathrooms. Roof is an option, but the user of the present invention may utilize the concrete slab 2 as a platform. The wall is specially manufactured.

The object of the present invention is to simplify, reduce or eliminate the redundancy, repetitive work, consumption, etc. associated with many construction activities performed on the ground, including the handling of materials, tools, equipment, and up and down movements of workers, etc., especially for high-rise buildings, which affect the speed, efficiency, economy and quality of construction. Thus, the cell boxes 27, including their electrical, plumbing, cabling, telephone, internet, alarm, background music pipe, etc., wiring and construction and other finishing work is or can be done at the underlying ground level or at a manufacturing site off site, so that these cell boxes 27 are converted as pre-assembled, pre-finished or plug-in units of shelter or building, and ready-to-use units.

The manufacture of the structural lattice boxes 27, whether segmented or integral, is governed by the handling, lifting, stacking, and actual conditions at the actual site or off-site locations. Mass production of the lattice boxes 27 is performed at a controlled manufacturing site.

The cast-in-place box 27 may be performed at or at the construction site in extreme or special circumstances.

The lifting mechanism consists of a metal rod 13, a cylinder 13a, a bolt 13b with a matching hook (fig. 18, 19) all embedded in the concrete (fig. 18, 19), or a socket 14b at the bottom in the case of a fork-lift device. Their frequency, size and anchoring are all affected by the structural design results.

The present invention covers simple but strong connection notches 8, 9, holes 15, dowels/pins 17, bolts 18, steel angle plates 16a or plates 16, lifting hooks 13, or cylinders 13a etc. (figures 11, 12, 14) of different materials, sizes and shapes surrounding the object of the invention, which is simple, practical, efficient, economical, stable and strong, including the design, template, manufacture, lifting, handling, placement and fixing of the box to form a complete "checker box 27" building system, as shown or represented in the attached figures.

More particularly, the present invention minimizes the repetitive handling, lifting, transporting (particularly for high-rise buildings) of materials, tools, and manpower from ground to building, as prefabricated, pre-finished, plug-in or insulated structural grid boxes 27, thereby reducing construction costs, improving work efficiency, and maintaining product quality at a controlled work site at a ground floor or manufacturing site.

Where the grid is formed, the spaces between the ribs 5 are formed, which can be used to hold thermal and acoustic insulation material, thus promoting the invention to insulated concrete construction techniques.

In addition to the unique product and installation process to which the invention is made, it is an object of the invention to develop a simple, durable, workable, economical, efficient, functional, light, fast and simple construction system for resolving backlog orders for economically viable rooms, public and private schools, offices, hotels, dormitories, hotels, apartments, etc. in any country, and in other small, medium or large high rise buildings or shelter projects. The lattice box 27 and some or more portions of the present technology as a whole will be modified to accommodate current and future times in the design and actual practice of the present invention.

The materials used in this design and further development of this technology to maximize its benefits may be any type of concrete, steel, section steel, plastic, wood, laminates or combinations thereof, as well as other applicable, less expensive and available building materials in the future.

Such modifications as set forth above are intended to be part of and part of this disclosure.

For practical reasons of future site conditions, project size, budget constraints etc., the present technique may be changed to a cast-in-place construction method, but still using the same process of building the lattice boxes 27 in a direct up-down arrangement or in an alternating manner.

The invention covers the following:

1. for residential use, single or two-storey, free standing, multi-dwelling, apartment, fan (quad), ganged, non-elevator or multi-storey, multi-span, dormitory, apartment housing, economically viable or collective housing, or various types of shelter.

2. Various types of shelters for commercial use, such as office buildings, hotels, motels, hotels, call centers, malls, parking spaces, or the like.

3. Various types of shelters for industrial use, such as school buildings, learning centers, daycare centers, hospitals, clinics, administrative centers, or the like.

4. For any type of similar box structure arranged vertically, horizontally or at an oblique angle, such as bridges, pipes, caissons, wells, tunnels, shafts, or similar structures falling within the basic principles of mass production, economy, speed, strength, etc.

Drawings

The following figures will describe and illustrate the lattice box 27 technique. The drawings, although numbered consecutively, are divided into two types. Type I describes the box 27 for a five (5) sided grid (fig. 1 to 26) and type II describes the box 27 for a six (6) sided grid (fig. 27 to 56).

A type I five (5) sided grid box 27 is ideal for houses, shelters or buildings with different sized rooms. A type I lattice box 27, open at the bottom side, is mounted in an up and down manner from the foundation or base level to the topmost platform. The shelter or building may use different sizes of type I box boxes 27. However, when using a type I lattice box 27, it is a general rule to use the same size lattice box and to mount vertically in a linear progression from the foundation or base level to the topmost platform. Different sizes of type I box boxes 27 (but of the same height) can then be used in other parts of the same building, but the installation must be similar, i.e. vertically mounted in linear progression from the foundation or base level to the topmost platform of the same shelter or building. The adjacent grid panels 2 are designed and manufactured for mounting to the peripheral space around the type I grid box 27.

Type II six (6) sided grid boxes 27 use the same grid box (same width, length and height) from the foundation or base level to the topmost platform, regardless of their position in the shelter or building. The lattice boxes 27 are placed horizontally with extra spaces 24 between them. These extra spaces 24 or cells are formed by the walls 1 of the two adjacent lattice boxes 27. The distance between the centre line of each thin wall 3 of the lattice box 27 and the centre line of the extra space 24 is equal so that the sleeper beam 7 can receive and mount a following lattice box 27 when another lattice box 27 is placed on them (above the extra space 24). This process is repeated until the shelter or building is completed. The basic guideline is that at any level of the shelter or building, all the centerlines of the thin walls 3 of all the lattice boxes 27 are vertically aligned from the base level or foundation up to the topmost platform.

The end grid walls 30, combined grid walls 29 and grid panels 2 are placed at the outer ends or platforms to complete the enclosure system. Fig. 36 illustrates these components.

Type II six (6) sided lattice box 27 has walls 1 at the front and rear, walls 1 with cut-through openings for doors 12 and windows 12b, 12c or stairs, elevator 12d etc. A six (6) sided grid box 27 of type II is ideal for mass production, particularly for large projects or buildings. The front and rear walls 1 of the type II cell box 27 are open and the removal of the internal structure is faster. The reduction of wall 1 due to the presence of front and rear openings 12, 12b is addressed by relocating the position of the grid box 27 (architect's design) or in extreme cases by introducing cast-in-place walls or other structural elements (architect's design) at strategic areas of the building shelter to maintain the structural integrity of the building. The opening or closing of the wall 1 or the plate 2 for these cast-in-place structural elements can be done during the casting of the lattice box 27. Once cast in place, they become an integral part of the structure.

There are cases where the lattice box 27 has perforated openings 12, 12a, 12b, 12c, 12d on almost all sides of the lattice box 27 to meet the intended needs (windows, doors, stairs, poles, observation areas such as porches, or sightseeing elevators, etc.). These cases are allowed, provided that the general rule is that these critical horizontal and vertical ribs, including the sleepers 7, 8, 9 and the rebates, are intact and that the structural engineer must look for a gap.

Figure 36 shows the placement or installation process of a type II six (6) sided grid box 27. The lattice box 27 has only one size. First, they are placed horizontally with extra spaces 24 between the grid boxes 27. The lattice walls 1 of the lattice box become the walls of the extra space 24. The distance between the center line of each thin wall 3 of the lattice box 27 and the center line of the extra space 24 is equal. On the next upper level next, a type II six (6) sided box 27 is placed over the extra space 24. The "Z" notches 9 of the grid box 27 mounted on the upper level are located on the bolster beams 7 of the two grid boxes 27 already mounted below. After installation, the grid panel 2 becomes a roof of the additional space 24. This installation process is repeated until the shelter or building is completed. The general rule is that each thin wall 3 is in line from the foundation or base level up to the topmost platform. The number of installed grid boxes 27 creates a room or available space equal to twice their number.

The end panel walls 30, the combined panel walls 29 and the panels 2 are shown positioned on an outer end or platform to complete the system of panel boxes 27.
