Abstract
A method of forming a wall unit having a veneer face is disclosed. Initially, a pair of side wall panels and a pair of end panels are mounted substantially upright. Stones or other suitable material are set sequentially in a horizontally disposed course using at least one of the panels. Additional courses of stones or other material may then be stacked upon the initial layer until the desired height is attained. The interior volume of the apparatus is left substantially empty, and is then filled with a binding material. The binding material binds the courses' components together and integrates the individual courses into a single cohesive unit. The wall and end panels are removed and the unit is removed for subsequent installation.
Description
- 1. Technical Field
- This invention relates generally to a method and apparatus for molding wall units, and in particular to constructing a wall unit having layered discrete veneer components, such as stones, on the outer surface.
- 2. Background Art
- Various methods of forming a stone veneer on a single side of a wall unit have heretofore been performed. In one of the related art techniques, a plurality of stones are arranged face-down, forming a single horizontal layer, upon a base surface as discussed in U.S. Pat. No. 1,856,906.
- The inherent disadvantage of this method is that, since it entails laying the veneer stones horizontally across the bottom of the form, it is limited to producing a stone veneer on only a single surface of the wall unit. Therefore, if a construction design calls for a wall unit having a stone veneer on more than one side, two wall units would have to be constructed separately and positioned back-to-back to produce the desired fixture. Similarly, if a design specified an end unit with a veneer on two or more sides, this would require two or more separate pours, with the attendant increase in manufacturing, shipping, and construction costs.
- A second related art method is to pre-cast the core with a plurality of discrete attachment anchors (e.g. slots, ties, etc.) and then create the veneer on the previously finished core using a story pole, sandwiching, or other known technique. See, for example, U.S. Pat. No. 5,761,876 to Keady. This process requires at least two separate casting steps or “pours.”
- Thus, there exists a need for a method which can be used to produce a stone veneer on multiple sides of a wall unit in an efficient and cost effective manner, for instance, in a single pour of concrete. There also exists a related need for a method which can produce stone veneers on multiple curved, sloped, or angled wall unit surfaces.
- The present invention provides a method for forming a wall unit using a molding technique, comprising: operationally attaching a plurality of panels in an upright manner; arranging two or more layers of discrete veneer components adjacent one of said plurality of panels; filling said volume with a binding material; and subsequent to curing of the binding material, removing said panels.
- A wall unit form comprising a first surface; a second surface operatively attached to said first surface; end surfaces operatively attached to said first and second surfaces thereby forming an upright form and opposing sides; and optionally, a pocket structure operatively attached to at least one of said surfaces.
- It is to be understood that both the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary, but are not restrictive, of the invention.
- The invention is best understood from the following detailed description when read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It is emphasized that, according to common practice and for the sake of clarity, the various features of the drawings are not drawn to scale. On the contrary, the dimensions of the various features may have been arbitrarily expanded or reduced. Included in the drawings are the following figures:

- The present invention generally provides a method for forming wall units, and in particular to a method for constructing a wall unit having layered discrete veneer components on the outer surface of at least one side.
- The present invention further discloses the wall unit form which is utilized in the novel production method disclosed herein.
- The term “stone” veneer is used throughout the description of the invention solely for ease of communication. There is no intent to limit the veneer material to stone. Rather, any discrete building component may be employed in the method described herein.
- While this invention is susceptible to embodiment in many different forms, there is shown in the drawings, and will be described in detail, a preferred embodiment of the invention. It should be understood, however, that the present disclosure is to be considered as an exemplification of the principles of this invention and is not intended to limit the invention to the embodiment illustrated.
- 1. The Wall Unit Form
- Referring to FIG. 1, this figure shows an end view of a
wall unit form 10 with first andsecond side panels first end panel 16. All of these panels, and second end panel 18 (FIG. 2), are mounted to each other upon the ground or upon abase panel 20, according to the present invention. Theside panels second end panels movable panels wall unit form 10 during various production operations as will be discussed in the Method section below. Thewall unit form 10 may also include a cavity to accommodate material that will form a base or footing if the footing is to be molded as an integral piece of thewall unit 50. The base or footing cavity can be formed byextensions 84 that are attached, as necessary, tomovable panels extensions 84 may be of any required contour, and these are capable of producing a base having either squared or radiused corners and ends. - The
wall unit form 10 is also adaptable to receive a form liner. The form liner is operationally attached to the interior ofpanels - The
base panel 20 is further adapted to receive a pocket forming structure such as a footingloop pocket structure 24. Use of the footingloop pocket structure 24 enables formation of a shear key or footing loop pocket 48 (FIGS. 3A, 3B) in the bottom surface of thewall unit 50. - The connecting loop pocket structure22 (FIG. 2), the footing loop pocket structure 24 (FIG. 1), and the lifting loop pocket structure 56 (FIG. 1) are structures that are temporarily and removably placed upon the
panels wall unit form 10 to create longitudinal voids in the finishedwall unit 50. These voids are useful for accommodating means for interlockingadjacent wall units 50 as will be discussed herein below. The loop pocket structures (connecting, footing, and lifting, 22, 24, 56, respectively) may be formed on any surface of the wall unit, but are typically formed on the ends, top, or bottom of thewall unit 50. Theloop pocket structures loop pocket structures - As shown in FIG. 2, the
wall unit form 10 can receive a connectingloop pocket structure 22 at either or both ends. The connectingloop pocket structure 22 is attached to either or bothend panels loop pocket structure 22 allows a connecting loop pocket 46 (FIG. 3A) to be formed on theends wall unit 50. - Referring now to FIG. 3, there are shown several views of a
wall unit 50. FIG. 3A presents a front view of awall unit 50, showing a connectingloop pocket 46 at each end of thewall unit 50. Connectingloop rods 30 extend into the connecting loop pockets 46 from the interior of thewall unit 50. Similarly, liftingloop rods 28 extend into thelifting loop pocket 58, and provide a means for lifting thewall unit 50 when so required. The connectingloop rods 30 and the liftingloop rods 28 are typically formed from reinforcing rods, commonly known as rebar, of sufficient size and quantity as dictated by the application. - A
footing loop pocket 48 is shown formed along the bottom of thewall unit 50.Footing loop rods 70 may be formed that extend into thefooting loop pocket 48, in mirror image fashion compared to thelifting loop rods 28 and thelifting loop pocket 58. Thefooting loop rods 70 may be used to anchor the wall unit to aconcrete footing 36 or other base, typically by attachment to a footing-to-unit loop rod 64 (FIG. 4). - Also shown is a
chaseway 32 which can accommodate pipes, culverts, wiring, drainage, unit lifting means, windows, doorways, or the like. Thechaseway 32 may be placed at other locations within thewall unit 50. While only asingle chaseway 32 is shown, a plurality ofchaseways 32 may be employed as necessary. - FIG. 3B shows a side view of a
wall unit 50 presenting a second view of many of the features described above. Also shown here are a plurality of thestone veneer pieces 26. Theveneer pieces 26 comprise the sides of thewall unit 50, while the inner space between the veneers is occupied by a binding orcementation material 34. The binding orcementation material 34 may be cement, concrete, mortar, or other suitably binding material such as certain foams and plastic compounds. - FIG. 3C depicts a plan view of the
wall unit 50, which further presents the features discussed above. - The
wall units 50 are not limited to having astone veneer 26 on one or two sides. They may have astone veneer 26 on any number of sides. For instance, FIG. 6 shows a doublecorner end unit 72 which has a rectangular shape, and a stone veneer covering four sides. A left orright end unit 76 may also be formed (FIG. 8). Further, the connectingloop pocket 46 need not be placed at an end of thewall unit 50. It may be placed on a side to yield the left or rightcorner end unit 74 shown in FIG. 7. Finally, thewall unit form 10 is not limited to a rectangular shape. The sides may be angled or curved to meet any design criteria. FIG. 9 depicts acomposite wall unit 78 which includes both of these features. - 2. Method of Making the Wall Unit
- The
wall unit 50 is produced using thewall unit form 10 illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2. - As a first step, hinged or removable first and second surfaces or
side panels panels panels panel 20 at this time. However, depending on the size and configuration of thewall unit 50 that is to be constructed, eitherend panel wall unit form 10. Thewall unit form 10 may commonly have a rectangular shape, but could have any desired shape, including angled sides, curved sides, or sloped sides (FIG. 9). - Once the desired panels are in place, removable structures may be affixed to the panels. These structures function as connecting
loop pocket structures 22, footingloop pocket structures 24, or liftingloop pocket structures 56, depending on their placement within the form. - Next, individual stones are placed along the bottom of at least one side panel. Successive layers of stones are stacked upon the initial layer, thereby forming a
stone veneer 26. Smaller pieces of stone or non-stone material may be used as shims 82 (FIG. 3B) to ensure a specified gap or joint size between the stones. Alternatively, the stones may be stacked with no spaces between them. The stone veneer can also be built to accommodate chaseways, drainage pipes, culverts, windows, doorways, lighting fixtures, etc., as required. A stone veneer may be built against a single wall, or preferably, on more than one wall at the same time. For those units requiring that there be no visible seams betweenwall units 50, removable indentation blocks 80 (FIG. 4) are placed in appropriate locations in thestone veneer 26. - Once installation of the stone veneers26 is completed, reinforcing rods are added as necessary to provide structural integrity, and to provide lifting
loop rods 28, connectingloop rods 30, andfooting loop rods 70. - Now that the discrete components of the
wall unit 50 are in place, anypanels wall unit form 10 is then filled with a binding orcementation material 34. This bindingmaterial 34 is poured into thewall unit form 10 through the exposed upper area. - The binding
material 34 may be textured or colored, and may be a mortar, cement, concrete or similar mixture, or a plastic or foam compound. The bindingmaterial 34 is then allowed to cure. - In some architectural applications it will be desirable for
adjacent wall units 50 to appear as if there is no joint between them. In such cases, a temporary,removable indentation block 80 is placed at any suitable location in thestone veneer 26 array prior to addition of the bindingmaterial 34. Theindentation block 80 is removed after curing, thus leaving a void in thestone veneer 26. A seamless joint can then be accomplished using a stone crossing joint 38 (FIG. 5) which is placed across the vertical joint between theunits 50 utilizing the space vacated by the removable indentation block 80 (FIG. 4). Similarly, horizontal joints can be disguised between stackedwall units 50. - The
wall unit 50 may also be formed with a footing orbase 36, wherein thefooting 36 which is poured as an integral portion of thewall unit 50 at the same time that the remainder of thewall unit 50 is poured. - The foregoing specification is intended as illustrative and is not intended to be taken as limiting. Still other variations within the spirit and scope of this invention are possible and will readily present themselves to those skilled in the art.
