This invention relates to the building art and more particularly to certain improvements, in making columnar structures for supporting the roof or deck of a factory or like building.
The invention is directed to a new and novel method of constructing a T-headcolumn adapted minimizes the number and .size of connecting parts necessary and simplifies the arrangement and construction of the cross beams forming the supported structure. The new and novel method disclosed makes possible the construction of a T-head in a practical way and permits the inclusion of an additional feature ofdisposing of such overhead piping as heater headers and returns and sprinkler mains in alignment with the columns and generally in the space of the rows in which the columns are disposed.
This additional feature, although simple, is important in the erection of steel structures. .It prevents the sprawling of various overhead'piping in the building and permits an orderly disposition of individual space heaters and m a manner securing efiicient circulation of the heating medium throughout the building. It also allows more efficient distribution of machinery and overhead power transmission lines for driving the same to the end of securing maximum use of floorspace throughout the building.
Other objects of the invention will be readily apparent from the following description when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, which form apart hereof.
In the drawings:
Fig. 1 illustrates the interiorof a building employing T-head columns embodying the invention, there also being illustrated the manner of disposing the heatin pipes and the sprinkler main in alignment with th eolumnsand in the space of the column rows whereby space heaters may be supported in overhead relation upon certainofthe cross beams;

Figs. 5 to .8, inclusive, illustrate the various steps of the method disclosed herein;
Fig. 9 illustrates the head portion of a column made .byan alternative method;
- Fig.1!) is an end view :of an H-beam used in making the column illustrated in Fig. 9;
Fig. 11 is a side view of this H-beam; and
.Figs. 12 to 16 inclusive, are views illustrating the different .steps of this alternative method.
The .interior steel framing of a building, as shown in'Fig. 1, includes columns I arranged in spaced rows and parallel cross beams 2 connecting at .3 to the ends of heads 4 of the columns I. The supported structure carried by cross beams 3 and heads 4 of the columns I comprise such members as longitudinal beams 5 forming the roofing or deck framing members which may or may not include skylights 6 or solid roof portions 1. Deck beams 5 are spaced along the parallel cross beams 2 at predetermined distances and centrally of column heads 4.
Each column I comprises an H-beam 8 provided with webbing 9 and side flanges I0 and II, as shown in Figs. 8 and 4. In making these columns I, webbing 9 is first cut away beginning at the upper end I2 of beam '8. This cutaway portion, designated .20, extends downwardly, say, to line l3. Side flanges I0 and III at the cutaway portion are then bent back, say, 'to the curvature shown in Fig. -6,'which generally represents the formation desirable for the opposite lower sides l4 and I5 of the .head 4 of the .finished column. Line I3 may represent the base :of this head 4 between the side flanges I0 and II. The next step in the procedure is to form a plate I6, as by cutting or the like, until it has th general formation of head 4. Its lower curved sides I! and It will correspond to opposite lower sides I4 and 1-5 of head 4, While its lower end I9 will fit between the curved side flanges I0 and II at the cutaway portion .20 and seat upon top edge I3 of webbing 9. The crosswise dimension of plate I 6 will equal that intended for head 4 so that when plate I6 is seated between bent back por- 'tions of flanges I0 and .II upon top edge I3 of webbing 9 0f H-beam 8, its curved sides I! and I8 will also seat against the curved 'bent back-portions of flanges I0 and l I, or substantially so. It isfnot necessary that the curved portions of flanges III and ll be bent back intoa curvature exactly corresponding to curved sides I! and I8 of plate l6. These bent back flange portions may be subjected to a second shaping operation, if so desired. The outer ends 2| and 22 of curved sides l1 and I8 of plate I 6 extend generally horizontally and parallel to the top edge 23 of plate l6. These ends form in efiect opposed horizontal side arms 24 and 25, and the central lower part forms a downwardly extending arm 26 adapted to be firmly braced between the side flanges l and H. An opening 28 is formed in plate I 6. It is located with a substantial portion thereof below the plane of horizontal end edges 2| and 22.
In cutting webbing 9 away, I find it advantageous to leave a small strip 30 along the inside face of flanges l0 and H. Curved sides I! and;
18 will seat upon these strips 30 when plate .16 is positioned within cutaway portion 26. Plate I 6 is then brazed, welded or otherwise suitably secured within cutaway portion 20 to strips- 38 and along edge l3. The line oi brazing or welding is indicated at 3! and 32. In this manner, the bent back portions of flanges Ill and H become the under flanges of' plate l6 so that the T-head column thus formed will have a continuous flange formation from along the'vertical sides of the column up to and along the underside ofhead 4. Strips 30 have the further function of assuring the centering of plate lt'during welding or brazing, which is desirable' as, well as necessary in order to secure alignment of the ends of arms 24 and 25 with cross beams 2. i If the face surfaces of arms 24 and 25 fail to align with the face surfaces of beams 2, plates joining the same together cannot be bolted in place properly to secure the proper connection. The top flange of head 4 may beformed by brazing or welding angle irons 36 along top edge 23 of plate 16 in be provided as standardized items of production,
thereby making labor costs less in the erection of the steel structure. Also, the method herein disclosed reduces the cost of constructing columns I and furnishing the same as standardized items of production.
Deck beams 5 are disposed laterally of cross beams 2 and column heads 4. The arrangement 'provides for carrying a deck beam 5 upon heads 4 directly centrally of each row of columns. Disposing a substantial portion of openings 28 below lower horizontal end edges 2| and 22 of plates it permits carrying space heaters 39 in overhead relation in a simple and orderly manner' upon the ends of certain of the cross beams 2, which arrangement effects a very eflicient form of heating for the building and also allows the header pipes 31 and return pipes 38 of the heating system to lie within the space occupied by each row. The arrangement also allows the return pipes 38 to lie below the plane of the column flanges i0 and H where they connect to edges 2! and 22- of plates I6, and therefore, below the lower'edges of cross beams 2. The headers 31 are therefore disposed above this plane so that the space heaters 39 ma be attached .to the ends of cross beams 2 and at the ends 24 and 25 of plates [6 in the manner shown and proper circulation of the Not only may the heating medium obtained. Any other piping, such as sprinkler mains 40, water pipes, electrical conduits, etc., may also be grouped with headers 3'! and return pipes 38 so that they will run generally parallel to and under the cross beam 5 disposed centrally upon the heads 4 of each row of columns. Confining such piping over the center line of the columns eliminates interference with light and power transmission lines, thereby providing maximum efiiciency in the distribution of machinery about the floor without loss of space or inefiicient positioning thereof, or without imposing limitations with respect to the positioning of the machinery and power transmitting lines that may be extremely undesirable where line production methods are in use.
I find that this provides a very simple and eflicient arrangement of such piping and keeps the same not only orderly placed to occupy a minimum of space in overhead relation in the building but'locates the same to secure maximum efliciency with respect to the circulation of the heating medium and distribution of a water supply for the sprinkler system.
A modified method of constructing columns i is shown in Figs. 9 to 16, inclusive. The H-beam 8 is slittedat 42 downwardl through webbing 9 to a point approximately equal to that of the top edge is and the side flanges l3 and l l are then bent back with the remaining portions of the webbing, as shown in Fig. 13. Plate segments 54, 45 and 46 are then cut in the forms shown in Fig. 15, the segments 44 and 45 having vertical straight edges 4?, horizontal straight edges 48 and curved sides 49 corresponding to the curvature of the slitted edges of webbing 9 along each of the bent back portions of flanges l6 and H. Similarly, segment 46 is formed with a straight top edge 5i] and curved sides 5t. These plate segments are then welded along lines 52 to the curved edges of webbing 9 so that the straight edges '4'! and 50 form an opening 53. 'As shown in Fig. 14, an I-beam 54 is then out lengthwise in .two. One-half, designated 55, is positioned upon the outer ends 5? of the slitted portions of webbing 9 carried by the bent back portions of flanges Ill and l l and is then brazed or welded thereto, the inner portions of lower edge of I- beam half. 55 being also brazed or welded at 56 to top edges 43 of segments 44 and 45. Opening 53 will, therefore, be closed at the top and afiord ample space through which piping 31, 38 and 40 may pass in the same relation as heretofore described. I-Ienoe, a portion of the slitted Webbing 9 is united with the webbing of top member 55 and forms therewith the head of T-column. The central portion of the head is adequately reenforced by plate members 44, 45 and 46, so that asingle standardized unit may be formed to provide maximum strength,
Both forms disclosed provide a simple and inexpensive method of constructing an efficient form of T-head column in a practical manner. The structure is light and strong. Less material is utilized than in built-up fabricated structures. Lighter cross beams 2 may be used and arranged systemmatically so that a lighter and more effective type of deck construction may be adopted. The strength of the head 4 is not afiected by the openings 28 and 53, although of lighter construction, and hence; -overhead heating pipes and sprinkler mains may be grouped to lie in the same general space'occupied by the rows of col umns. A maximum unobstructed overhead supported structure is thereby possible for ventilation and light transmission through skylights and other roof parts carried thereby, and, as previously stated, a maximum use of floor space is obtained without sacrifice of space due to interference between light and power transmission lines with the heating pipes, sprinkler mains, or such other pipes, as the water and conduit pipes.
Without further elaboration, the foregoing will so fully explain the gist of my invention that others may, by applying current knowledge, readily adapt the same for use under varying conditions of service, without eliminating certain features, which may properly be said to constitute the essential items of novelty involved, which items are intended to be defined and secured to me by the following claims.
I claim:
