SHEATHING FOR WOODEN BUILDINGS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Aug. 14, 1917.
. Application filed February 16, 1915. Serial No. 8,586.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HARLOW J. EVANS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Baker, in the county of Baker and State of Oregon, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sheathing for Wooden Buildings, of which the following is a speci- --fication.
My invention relates to improvements in sheathing for walls, floors, or roofs, of wooden buildings, to be arranged upon the inner or outer sides of the same.
An important object of the invention is to provide sheathing of the above mentioned character, formed of paper or pasteboard, preferably treated to render it water-proof, and adapted to effectually exclude the dampness or moisture, and which is a poor conductor of sound and heat.
A further object of the invention is to provide means of the above mentioned character, which is simple in construction, inexpensive to manufacture, strong and durable.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent during the course of the following description.
, In the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification and in which like numerals are employed to designate like parts throughout the same.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of my improved sheathing, showing the same applied to the studs or the like of a wall,
Fig. 2 is an enlarged horizontal section taken through one section of the sheathing, and
Fig. 3 is a fragmentary inner side elevation of one sheathing or sheathing section.
In the drawings wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown a preferred embodiment of my invention, the numeral 5 designates the wall of a wooden building, embodying vertical studs 6 or the like, which are spaced, as shown.
My improved sheathing is preferably formed in sheathing sections 7 adapted to be arranged between the studs 6, as shown.
- Each sheathing section comprises an outer preferably flat sheet 8 of suitably stiff paper or pasteboard, upon the inner side of which is secured a sheet 8 of suitably stilt paper or pasteboard, these two elements being preferably cemented together, while they may be attached by any other suitable means. The numeral 9 designates an inner sheet, formed of suitably stifi' paper or pasteboard, which is folded or bent near its ends, providing transverse portions 9', dis posed at a right angle to the body of the sheet 9. The transverse extensions 9 are folded or bent, providing longitudinally extending portions 10, which lie flat in engagement with the ends of the outer sheet 8, and are cemented or otherwise secured thereto, providing attaching flaps 10. The flap or flaps 10, preferably extend beyond the ends or end of the sheathing section, as indicated in Fig. 3, to overlap the adjacent end of the succeeding sheathing section. A. sheet 11 of suitably stiff paper or pasteboard is arranged upon and secured to the inner surface of the inner sheet 9 by means of cement or the like.
Arranged between the sheets 8 and 9 are intermediate sheets 11 and 12 of suitably stiif paper or pasteboard, which are preferably cemented or otherwise secured together. Disposed between the sheets 8 and 11 is a section of corrugated suitably stifi paper or pasteboard 13, cemented or otherwise secured thereto, and a section of corrugated suitably stifl paper or pasteboard 14 is arranged between the sheets 11 and 12 and are secured thereto by means of cement or the like. 7 It is obvious that the corrugated sheets 13 and 14 impart to the sheathing sections the desired strength and rigidity, and at the same time affording dead air spaces whereby the sheathing section is a poor conductor of sound and heat.
In order that the sheathing sections may be damp or moisture proof to a high degree, the sheets of paper or pasteboard forming the same are treated or impregnated with a waterproofing material, such as oil, paraffin, or bituminous material. It is to be understood that the terms paper or pasteboard are intended to cover all of the ordinary building paper used in the construction of walls, floors, or roofs of buildings.
In Fig. 1, the sheathing sections 7 are shown applied to the studs 6, with the flaps 10 engaging with the studs and secured thereto by means of pins or nails 15, while other means may be employed. The flaps 1O overlap, as shown. I preferably arrange strips 16 inwardly of and in engagement with the sheathing sections, which are nailed or otherwise rigidly secured to the studs 6,
for effecting a very tight union between the sheathing section and the studs, and to reinforce or strengthen the sheathing section at its connection with the studs.
In Fig. 1 the sheathing sections are shown as applied to the outer sides of the studs 6, and it is intended that weather boards are to be arranged upon the same and nailed to the studs. However, it is to be understood that these sheathing sections 7 may be secured to the inner sides of the studs and used as a substitute for plaster laths. The sheathing sections may also be connected with the floor or top or roof of the building, in a more or less similar manner.
It is to be understood that the form of my invention herewith shown and described is to be taken as a preferred example of the same, and that various changes in the shape, size, and arrangement of parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit .of the invention or the scopeof the subjoined claim.
Having thus described the invention, I claim:
A sheathing of the character described, comprising an open body frame having substantially flat sides and adapted to be inserted between a pair of studs, attaching flaps secured to the edges of one substantially fiat side in substantially the plane thereof and adapted to overlap the studs and to be secured thereto, and corrugated sheets arranged between the sides and secured thereto for imparting to the sheathing a desired rigidity.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
HARLOW J. EVANS.
