Definitions

  • a building of prefabricated sections comprising two complete end wall sections and a'number of intermediate sections therebetween, each such intermediate section comprising a complete assembly of a bottomjosting structure, two side wall structures and a roofforming top structure, and being of double-shell construction including an inner layer of corrugated sheet metal forming the supporting body structure and an outer layer of corrugated sheet metal attached thereto in spaced relationship, a heat insulation being provided between said inner and outer layers.
  • All said inner and outer sheet metal layers being composed of trapezoidal-corrugated sheet metal bands of a particular cross section, said bands being interconnected at their ends by lap joints including bent band end portions and at their longitudinal edges by connecting elements of wood or the like.
  • the bends in the sheet metal layers are of a particular design providing for stiffness and strength, and the top structure'of each intermediate section is, preferably, of a sheet metal framework construction capable of load distribution over the whole width of said mating side wall structures.
  • This invention relates to buildings of the type having a substantially rectangular base plan and being composed of prefabricated sections, viz two end wall sections and a number of intermediate sections connected in series therebetween, each such intermediate section comprising at its main coponents a bottom Seasting structure, two opposed side wall structures, and a roof-forming top structure, which have all substantially the same width and are interconnected at their ends to form a frame-like unit.
  • each such end wall section may, if desired, be rigidly connected to a related intermediate section already in the factory.
  • Buildings of this general type are previously known and especially suited for ambulatory use, because they can easily be moved in sections from one site to another, if necessary.
  • the sections of such buildings can be economically produced in large series, when suitably standardized, and the building size, i.e. in fact the length of the building, can readily be varied by adding or subtracting one or more intermediate sections, as required.
  • the known buildings of the type referred to are not particularly Well meeting the practical requirements for strength, stability, durability, easy maintenance and good insulating properties and further more they are rather difficult to assemble as Well as to then take apart for moving, because the sections are easily distorted because of lacking strength, or extremely heavy for their size due to complicated construction.
  • Another disadvantage of the known buildings of the type in question is that their width, i.e. the length of each intermediate section, must ordinarily be kept within very narrow limits, if disturbing load supporting columns or partitions are to be avoided within the building.
  • each of said main components of each intermediate section comprises a room-enclosing inner layer of corrugated sheet metal having its corrugations extending in parallel with the side edges of the related section, said inner component layers forming together the supporting body structure of the building, and, secured to the outside of each such inner layer and spaced therefrom, a rigid outer layer forming a facade face, a joisting bottom cover and a roof face, respectively, the interspace between said inner and outer layers being at least partly filled with the insulating material and said inner layers in at least the two side wall structures and the bottomjosting structure being adapted to receive on their insides coveringpanels forming the inner walls and the floor.
  • an extreme structural rigidity and Istrength can be obtained with a minimum of weight.
  • the corrugated sheet metal layer in at least the bottom joisting structure and the two side Wall structures are in line with one another, and each such corrugation groove in the bottom joisting structure communicates at its ends with corresponding grooves in the side wall structures.
  • corrugated sheet metal layers are composed of interconnected sheet metal strips or bands corrugated in their longitudinal direction and of a particular and uniform cross section throughout, as will more clearly appear from the following. In this way considerable rationalization gains may be achieved in connection with large-scale factory production of the buildings.
  • FIG. l shows in perspective and in a very diagrammatical form the general division of a building according to the invention into sections to be prefabricated
  • FIG. 2 is a more detailed but still very simplified sectional elevation of the building (without end wall section),
  • FIG. 3 is a cross-section on a larger scale of a corrugated sheet metal strip or band which in various lengths is used as an essential structural element throughout the building shown,
  • FIG. 4 is a partial horizontal section through two outer wall portions of the building meeting at an outer corner thereof
  • FIG. 5 is an enlarged and more detailed partial sectional elevation corresponding to the left hand part of FIG. 2,
  • FIG. 6 is a partial and compacted longitudinal sectional elevation of the same building (substantially as viewedY from the right in FIG. 5) and showing also the one end wall of said building,
  • FIG. 7 shows on a larger scale a partial sectional elevation of a room-enclosing, corrugated sheet metal layer in the building and is specifically illustrating the attachment of the removable covering panels on the inside thereof, and
  • FIG. 8 is a partial perspective view illustrating how certain of the corrugated sheet metal elements in the -building are locally cut throughV and :bent before being jointed to other corrugated sheet metal elements.
  • the illustrated building has a substantially rectangular base plan and is composed of two end wall sections, generally designated by G, and an arbitrary number of-in FIG. 1 threeintermediate sections, generally designated by M, the latter being on a suitable foundation (not shown) interposed between the end wall sections G and connected to them as well as to one another to form a building of desired size. It will beunderstood that this building can, when required, again lbe taken apart into said sections and that the size of each such section has been chosen with a view to facilitate their transport. As far as their general construction is concerned and apart from possible doors and windows ⁇ (not shown) the two end wall sections G are mirror pictures of each other and substantially at.
  • each intermediate section M is identical as far as their general construction is concerned but they may be of different width counted in the longitudinal direction of the building, if so required.
  • Each intermediate section M thus comprises as its main components a bottom Seasting structure or part A, two opposed side wall structures or parts B and a roof-forming top structure or part C, the latter forming in the present case a ridged roof.
  • each intermediate section M may be considered to be a sort of double-shell construction, the interior of the building, i.e. commonly the dwelling space, being primarily surrounded by an inner, room-enclosing layer of corru- 'gated sheet metal, which in fact constitutes the supporting body structure of the building.
  • this inner sheet metal layer isdesignated by 1 and is composed of vertically extending and vertically corrugated sheet metal strips, as will appear more closely from the following.
  • the corresponding innerlayer of corrugated sheet metal is designated by 2 and is for rigidity united back to back with an underlying second layer 3 of ⁇ corrugated sheet metal.
  • these layers 2 and 3 are composed of corrugated sheet metal strips placed side by side and their corrugations extend in the direction between the side walls B.
  • 'Ihe inner layer 4 of the top structure C is likewise composed of corrugated sheet metal strips having their corrugations extending in the direction between the side walls B and this latter layer 4 forms a bottom portion of.a framework construction, which further comprises two upper and oppositely inclined corrugated sheet metal layers 5 rigidly interconnected to form a roof ridge and being composed in the same manner as the layer 4 of strips having their corrugations extending in the direction ofthe roof slope.
  • a number of connecting struts 6, 7 are provided between the frameworak bottom layer 4 and the.upper inclined layers 5, and these struts are likewise made of corrugated sheet metal strips with their corrugations extending in the direction between said layers 4 and 5.
  • these struts 6, 7 are of the same width as the rest of the intermediate section and composed of pieces of corrugated sheet metal strips of the same kind as used for the other sheet metal layers.
  • the outer end edges of the inclined sheet metal layers 5 are rigidly connected t@ the corresponding end edges of the sheet metal layer 4 and also to the upper end edges of the .inuershet metal layers t of the side walls B, and
  • the latter are in turn rigidly connected at their lower ends to the outer ends of the sheet metal layer 2 of the bottom joisting structure A.
  • the framework construction of the top structure C the reinforcement of the sheet metal layer 2 of the bottomjosting structure, obtained iby the provision of the lower sheet metal layer 3, and the rigid interconnection of all the sheet metal layers constituting the inner supporting body structure, a very good stability and a high load-carrying capacity of the latter are secured.
  • a particular advantage of the described construction is the roof-load distributing function performed by the framework-type top structure.
  • the end wall sections G are substantially identical with the side wall structures B of each intermediate section M, although of course of considerably larger dimensions. Besides, the end wall sections are lacking, for obvious reasons, the rigid connection with adjacent parts and are instead adapted to be -joined in a simple and detachable way to the adjacent intermediate section M, preferably through boltings, unless it is preferred to combine each end wall section with the adjacent intermediate section already in the factory.
  • echend wall section G thus consists 0f an inner layer 11 composed of corrugated sheet metal strips placed on end 'and side by side with vertically extending corrugations, and of an outer, similarly constructed corrugated sheet metal layer 12.
  • each end wall section a rigid connection between the inner sheet metal layer 11 and the outer sheet metal layer 12 is provided through double bending of the inner sheet metal layer 11, as shown at 13 in lFIG. 6, while the sheet metal layers are held together at their top by a bar 14, which extends along the upper edge and is covered at the erection of the building by a sheet metal chute 15 forming a barge board and a roof edge covering.
  • the various sheet metal layers in the building are composed of corrugated stripsA or bands vof sheet metal placed side by side, for instance sheets of aluminum or of iron or steel which has been subjected to an anti-corrosive treatment such as galvanization and has possibly been lacquered.
  • the sheet metal strips are all of the same cross section, and FIG. 3 shows a preferred form thereof.
  • strip or band has been identified by the reference D. As clearly appears from FIG.
  • the sheet metal strip D is provided with outwardly directed flange-like edge portions a lying in one and the same plane and projecting at right angles each from an inner margin b which in its turn forms a right angle with the main plane of the strip and merges, likewise under a right angle, into a web portion or strip bottom c-d, in which there is formed a plurality of trapezoidal waves or corrugations e rising between the marginal portions b and having their top portions substantially flush with the two ange-like edge portions a.
  • the cross section of the strip is so shaped that the width of each web or strip bottom portion c located between one of the marginal portions b and the adjacent trapezoidal wave e is somewhat larger than the width of the remaining web or strip bottom portions d located between each two adjacent waves e, said latter web or strip bottom portions d being of equal width, which is preferably the same as the width of the flat top sides of the trapezoidal waves.
  • the terms bottom and top side used in connection with the description of FIG. 3 has nothing to do with the position of the sheet metal strip in the building. It should also be observed that the strips D appearing in FIGS. 4 and 6 have not been shown with their full width for the sake of saving drawing space.
  • the sheet metal strips D forming the inner layers 1 and 11 and the sheet metal strips forming the outer facade layers 8 and 12 in the end wall sections G and in the side wall structures B of each intermediate section M are placed on their ends in back to back relationship and interconnected in pairs by means of vertical spacing bars 16, which extend between the flange portions a of the two sheet metal strips and are connected in a suitable manner to the latter as well as to the related marginal portions b of the sheet metal strips.
  • the bars 16 are preferably made of pressureimpregnated wood but may also be made of any other suitable material having a low heat conductivity.
  • each pair of opposed sheet metal strips D together with the related pair of spacing bars 16 and the dilling of heat insulation I therebetween can be considered as a primary construction unit in the building, and each end wall section G as well as each side wall structure B of each intermediate section M is normally composed of a plurality of such units placed side by side and joined together into larger assemblies through boltings 17 between adjacent bars 16.
  • the joints between the primary construction units are covered by sheet metal chutes 18 of trapezoidal cross section and of the same shape as one of the waves or corrugations of the sheet metal strip. Thanks to the special configuration of the sheet metal strip the chutes 18 will cover also the boltings 17 and give the facade wall a uniform appearance.
  • the sheet metal strips incorporated in the upper sheet metal layer 5 of the top structure framework are united with the corresponding sheet metal strips forming the roof layer in the same manner as previously described and this by means of bars 16 standing on their edges and positioned in line with the corresponding bars in the side wall structures B. Also in this case the joining of the primary construction units is effected by means of boltings 17, and the joints are covered on the upper side by inverted sheet metal chutes 18 corresponding to those used on the facade walls.
  • inverted sheet metal chutes 18 corresponding to those used on the facade walls.
  • a number of wooden ridges 19 is placed on edge between the sheet metal layers 5 and 10, each such ridge having a length equal to the distance between adjacent bars 16 and having its ends connected to the latter in a suitable manner to constitute rigid frames.
  • girder elements corresponding to the ridges 19 can be used also in the wall structures, but this will normally be unnecessary.
  • the construction of the bottom joints structures A diters in some essential respects from the construction of the walls.
  • the inner or upper layer 2 of corrugated sheet metal strips D is reinforced by means of an immediately under-lying further additional sheet metal layer 3, and more specifically in such a way that two sheet metal strips in back to back relationship are interconnected by riveting, spot welding or the like at several points between their edges and also connected along their edges to battens 20 extending between them.
  • the primary construction units thus formed are of the same width as the corresponding primary construction units of the other parts of the building and are interconnected in side by side relationship by means of boltings 17 similar to those used in the walls.
  • the two co-operating bottom joisting sheet metal layers 2 and 3 are united with the joisting bottom cover 9 exclusively with the aid of a -few supporting joists 21, the upper and lower edges of which are proled to ll up the corrugations of the sheet metal layers 3 and 9.
  • the joists 21 of each intermediate section M are of a length equal to the width of the section and these joists are thus the only connecting elements passing through each intermediate section in the longitudinal direction of the completed building.
  • the joisting bottom cover 9, is in its turn, composed of single sheet metal strips D having wooden ⁇ battens 22 secured to their edges and being interconnected by means of boltings 17.
  • the joisting bottom ⁇ cover 9 has, of course, for its main purpose to carry the joist insulation I, but also to form part of the external shell of the building as already explained.
  • the ceiling layer 4 is built up in the same way as the joisting bottom cover 9 from single sheet metal strips D with wooden edge battens 22 held together by boltings 17. .It should be kept in mind, however, that the ceiling layer 4 forms part of the previously described framework construction and is thus stiifened and supported through its connection with the inclined sheet metal layers 5 via the struts 6 and 7.
