Definitions
- the invention disclosed relates to a manufacturing system for the manufacture of columns, beams and any other member of a structure, based on the integration of two open cross section elongated members that—being joined to each other so that their main axes are parallel to the main axis of the column or beam they form—permit the manufacture of a wide variety of closed and hollow structural elements by using a small number of the above mentioned open cross section elongated members.
- Non hollow steel structural members such as beams
- beams are usually made by a hot-rolled process, as in the case of rails, “L”, “T” and double “T” cross section beams, or by cut and cold-drawn flat plates joined by different welding systems.
- the members are produced by means of elemental “boards” which are glued in successive layers, permitting the production of curve shapes having different cross sections.
- the invention disclosed comprises a manufacturing system for the manufacture of columns, beams and any other member of a structure, based on the integration of two open cross section elongated members that—being joined to each other, so that their main axes are parallel to the main axis of the column or beam they form—permit the manufacture of a wide variety of closed and hollow structural elements by using a small number of the above mentioned open cross section elongated members.
- a structural element that comprises two elongated members having respective “C’ type open cross-sections, and a joining means for joining the two elongated members to form a hollow transversal section.
- FIG. 1 shows an open cross section elongated member, in accordance with one embodiment of the invention
- FIG. 2 shows an elemental component, in accordance with an embodiment of the invention
- the two elongated members are joined by a weld along its external edges, as indicated in number ( 5 ) of FIG. 2. Since the above concerns light elongated members, intermittent welds are provided in or near one or several edges of said elongated members, in order to prevent them from buckling when the tubular steel elongated member experiences bending or compression stress.
- the weld joint of the two elongated members is completed along its entire extension or is supplemented by some type of seal, in order to isolate the interior of the beam, column or structural member from the outside, and thereby avoid corrosion or the entry of rodents, liquids or other undesirable elements.
- the elongated members ( 1 ) may have rounded bends ( 2 ), stiff edges ( 3 ) and core stiffeners ( 4 ) (see FIG. 1).
- the purpose of these stiffeners is to optimize the mechanical performance of the elements, both for their handling prior to their assembly, as well as their subsequent performance as part of the finished column or beam.
- the stiffeners also serve to prevent deformations that could be produced by the heating caused by the weld of the elongated members.
- Each one of said two elongated members that form a beam, column or member of a structure can be substantially long, in which case they are formed by several correspondent elongated members joined one next to the other; in addition, all the elongated members that form the substantially long beam, column or member of a structure are arranged in a mismatched manner, by ensuring that the joints between them do not coincide in a common transversal section.
- the invention whose patent is requested can be applied to steel and other metallic constructions, as well as to structures made of other materials, such as plastic and glass. It can also be used with composite materials, such as plastics reinforced with fiber glass and fiber cement.
- the method for joining the elements that form the structural member can include not only fusion weld (arc welding, resistor and thermo fusion), but also riveting, bolting, screwing or assembling, according to the convenience of the application.
- fusion weld arc welding, resistor and thermo fusion
- riveting bolting, screwing or assembling
- the nature of the components also influences the joining method; for example, in the case of certain plastic materials, thermo fusion or adhesion using glues can be adequate.
