T all w/iome'ttmag/ concern y y yBe it known that l, FRED A. NoRrHwALL, a 'citizen of the United States, and a resident of Portland, in thecounty of Multnomah and State ofOregon, have invented certain newand useful Improvements in ,Facings for Cement Walls, of which the following is a specification.v u y This invention relates to `facing for cement walls. More particularly the invention relates `to facing for cement walls and the method of building the wall and binding the facing `to the outer side thereof. l i.
The invention has for, its object to provide a facing of the above character whereby the exterior of the cement wall of a house, or
the like, may be given a neat and artistic apy pearance.
vention that the facing be adapted tofbe locked in position at the time of building or pouring the cement wall.
It is a further object of the invention that the facing be adapted to give the appearance of a brick wall if so desired.
Gther objects will hereinafter appear. v
The invention is illustrated by way of example in the accompanying drawings, in which i v Figure 1 is a fragmentary side elevation of a wall in the process of formation and illustrating the different `units or elements necessary for constructing the wall.
Figure 2 is a horizontal sectional view of the same. i
Figure 3v is afview in side elevation of a fragmentary portion of the exterior ofthe wall when provided with the facing of the present invention. U n
Figure 4 is a View similar to Figure 3 showing a modified form of the facing.
Figure 5 is a detail vertical sectional view 5 and 6, F indicatesan outer form for a wall and F the inner form, C acement wall and t5 L the facing for the exterior of the wall.
`shown in Figure 3;
of a wall constructed in accordance with the a modified The outer form F; may be' constructed in `any "desired lmanner and may consist in boards l0, as shown, which are suitably placed and secured together. lheinner form F f may consist in the studding 11 with boards `lf2, or the like, closing the space exist` `ing betii'een the studding. The facing L consists in af plurality `of units or elements '1f/l. fis `shown in Figure, the facing ele ment 14 :consists in `a `i'ectiu'igulai' shaped member preferably of the thickness shown and which may' beinade of cement or other suitable material, kThe outerk face has its edge formed with an offset 15 which extends `along its upper longitudinal edge and of the f width shown, while itsl other longitudinal edge is formed with a narrower offset. 16 which occurs upon the inner face of the facing element. Also one end of the element `has its inner face formed with an offset 17 and its other end with an offset 17 which occurs upon its outer face; and adjacent the` offset 17 `therefis formed in the inner facing of the element arrecess 18 which is substantially the shape of a V and having its inner wall slanting inwardly as sh'own at 19. I
1n buildingithe wall so that the same may have a faeingof the present invention7 the facing elements are arranged against the outer form F before pouring of the cement. 1f the facing elements used correspond to that shown in Figure 6, the recess 18 of each i element should be disposed along the lower may lbe arranged in staggered relatiomas curring along'the edge in which the insert or recess 18 occurs is narrowerthan the offset 15` occurring along the lower longitudinal edge of each unit, itwill be apparent that there will occur a groove orslot between the Sincethe offset 16 oef4 longitudinal edges of superposed facing ele-` ments as at 20, Figure 3. yThese grooves may be filled with cement and thus te give the effect of a briclr wall1 that is, if the facing elements are made to correspond to the size -of abriclr. Also the opposing ends of facing elements will be spaced as shown in F ig* ure 13; i
- After the facing lelements have been arranged against the outer forni F until they reach a predetermined height then the cement may be poured to form the wall C to a yheight corresponding to the facing. 1f desired reinforcing wires may be included in the cement or mortar as at 21, Figure 2, and these reinforcing Wires may be secured to the studding by smaller Wires as at 23.
Before the cement is set, it is important that all the recesses or insertions 18 of the facing elements are'illedwith cement, land as is obvious when this cement or mortar sets the facing is positively tied or bound thereto. The Wall may be built in the man- -ner described until the desired heightv is reached.
The facing element shown in Figure 7 consists in a substantially rectangular shaped member ot the thickness shown and which may be made of any material desired. The end offsets 241; and 24e correspond to the oit sets 17 and 17" of element shown in Figure 6, with the exception that the width of these offsets is less. The offsets 16 along the longitudinal edges ofvthis element are also narrower than the similar osets of the element shown in Figure 6. The insert 18 corresponds to thesame insert 18 of facingelernent'in Figure 6. l
When employing the facing element shown in Figure 7 the exterior of the Wall Will appear as shown in Figure 4 in which 14 indicates the individual facing elements.
Vhile I have shown the preferred form of facingelement as rectangular in shape, I wish it to be understood that I am aware of the fact that the same may be made in numerous other shapes Without departing from the spirit ott my invention.
A facingelement of the character described, comprising' a platedilre formation having oisets' in its faces along each end thereo'll and each side thereof, the offsets upon one `side and uponxoneend occurring npon'opposite faces with respect to the 'osets upon the other side `and other end respectively, and one tacehaving-itsoi'set occurrinfr along its upper longitudinal edge eX- tenoed inwardly intermediate they ends thereoi and the Walls forming the termination of thenffset comprisingtwo divergent end Walls and an intermediate or connecting Wall, and each of `said wallssloping inwardlyfor the purpose described.
