Abstract

conventional assembly methods, heavy reliance must be placed on installer skill and diligence for the purposes of ensuring reliable interconnection of the components in the framework. This problem is addressed by providing a fastener pre-applied to a component to be fastened (typically being a pre-assembled roof truss) so that typically when the truss and a top plate of a wall are in abutment sliding is allowed (not precluded) before fixing the truss to the top plate. e-assembled roof truss) so that typically when the truss and a top plate of a wall are in abutment sliding is allowed (not precluded) before fixing the truss to the top plate.

Description

CONNECTION OF STRUCTURAL COMPONENTS IN A BUILDING STRUCTURE PRIORITY

Claims (28)

CLAIM
1. A method of assembling a building structure including timber structural framework in which a roof truss is connected to and supported by a structural component, the method 5 comprising installation of the roof truss when the structural component is in situ, said installation comprising effecting abutment between and ensuring correct relative positioning of the truss and component and fixing together the abutting truss and component with at least one fastener which has, before said installation, been pre-applied to one of the truss and the component, n the or each pre-applied er is ed so as not to preclude relative sliding 10 between the ng truss and ent before the fixing together of the truss and component; the fixing together of the truss and component comprises advancing the or each er into the other of the truss and component, the advancing of the fastener comprising driving it into at least one timber member of said other of the truss and component.
2. A method according to claim 1, wherein the or each fastener is threaded and the driving thereof into said other of the abutting truss and component comprises screwing it into said other of the abutting truss and ent. 20
3. A method according to claim 2, wherein the or each fastener taps said other of the abutting truss and component during screwing thereof into said other of the abutting truss and
4. A method ing to claim 3, wherein the fastener is a self-tapping screw.
5. A method according to claim 1, wherein the or each fastener comprises a nail and the driving thereof into said other of the abutting truss and component comprises knocking it into said other of the abutting truss and component. 30
6. A method according to any one of claims 1 to 5, wherein a leading end of the or each fastener is set back from a surface of the other of the truss and component upon said abutment being ed, and advancing that fastener comprises displacing the leading end thereof through the surface such that it is received in said other of the abutting truss and component.
7. A method ing to any one of claims 1 to 5, wherein a leading end of the or each 5 fastener is only just touching a surface of the other of the truss and component upon said abutment being effected, and advancing that fastener comprises displacing the leading end thereof past or through the surface such that it is received in said other of the abutting truss and component. 10
8. A method according to any one of claims 1 to 7, wherein said one of the truss and component ses at least one timber member, within which the or each pre-applied fastener extends prior to the abutment being ed.
9. A method according to any one of claims 1 to 8, wherein said abutment is n a 15 bottom chord of the truss and said component.
10. A method according to any one of claims 1 to 9, wherein effecting said abutment comprises lowering the truss onto the component. 20
11. A method according to any one of claims 1 to 9, wherein said abutment is effected by relative sideways movement between the truss and component.
12. A method according to claim 11, n said abutment is effected by moving said truss sideways such that it is ed against said ent.
13. A method according to any one of claims 1 to 12, wherein the truss is a standard truss, valley truss, saddle truss, hip truss, jack truss, creeper truss or truncated girder truss.
14. A method according to any one of claims 1 to 13, wherein the component comprises a 30 wall structure.
15. A method according to claim 14, wherein the wall structure defines part of an internal wall in the building structure.
16. A method according to claim 14 or claim 15, wherein the wall structure defines part of 5 an external wall in the building structure.
17. A method according to any one of claims 14 to 16, wherein the wall structure comprises a frame and said abutment is between the truss and a member of the frame. 10
18. A method according to any one of claims 14 to 17, wherein the wall structure comprises a frame and the fixing together of the truss and component comprises directly interconnecting the truss and a member of the frame via the fastener(s).
19. A method according to any one of claims 1 to 13, wherein the component comprises 15 r truss.
20. A method according to any one of claims 1 to 19, being such that the truss is connected to another structural ent in the building structure, wherein said lation includes effecting nt between the truss and the other structural component at a location remote 20 from said fastener(s) and fixing together the abutting truss and other component with at least one fastener (“other fastener”) which has been pre-appliedto one of the truss and the other component, wherein the or each pre-applied other er is arranged so as not to preclude sliding between the abutting truss and other ent before the fixing er of the truss and other ent.
21. A method according to claim 20, wherein said one of the truss and other component is said truss.
22. A method according to any one of claims 1 to 21, including effecting said sliding, to 30 effect said correct relative positioning.
23. A method according to any one of claims 1 to 22, wherein said one of the truss and component is said truss.
24. A method according to claim 23, wherein the or each fastener is pre-applied to a bottom 5 chord of the truss.
25. A method according to claim 23 or claim 24, wherein the or each fastener is plied to a top chord of the truss. 10
26. The building structure formed via a method according to any one of claims 1 to 25.
27. A truss for use as the truss in a method according to any one of claims 23 to 25, wherein said at least one fastener is pre-applied. 15
28. A component for use as said structural component in a method according to any one of claims 1 to 25, wherein said at least one fastener is plied such that the component is said one of the truss and the component in said method. B
