BUILDING SYSTEMS Filed March 10 VENTORS WARD A.LORENZ Z/HO ROBERT H. NAGY INGVAR SCHOUSBOE ATTORNEYS United States Patent O "ice U.S. Cl. 52--236 8 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE The building system employs preformed upright erection elements, preferably of precast concrete, forming outer wall portions which extend from halfway below a floor to halfway between floors thereabove, presenting side edges against which the end portions of relatively long preformed structural Walls of full height are swung and connected, whereby the usual need for temporary support for said structural walls, after they have been lowered into position by a crane, is eliminated. Other like erection elements for the next floor are supported endwise on the upper ends of the rst erection elements and secured to upper portions of the structural walls to project halfway above the next floor.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Field of the invention The present invention is particularly suitable for use in the erection of buildings of the type which utilize precast concrete structural elements and walls.
Description of the prior art Heretofore in the erection of buildings wherein large, massive precast concrete walls are used, it has been common practice to use a crane to lower each wall into position with its lower edge resting on a floor. There is then the problem of holding this wall in position until its ends can be connected to other structural elements of the building. Heretofore it has been common practice for many contractors to use metal braces for temporary supporting of such walls in upright position. This was a lengthy procedure as it took a long time to assemble the braces and attach them to the wall and floor in order to temporarily support the wall until it could be permanently connected to a permanent portion of the building. During all this time while the braces were being connected the crane had to remain connected to the wall to maintain it in upright position. Thus the crane was tied up for an unnecessary length of time when it could be employed for moving other elements into position. Inasmuch as the hourly cost of a crane and its operator is very substantial, this prior procedure has resulted in very high erection costs.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides, in a building having multiple floors, upright concrete erection elements forming outer wall portions of the building which extend from halfway below a oor to a point halfway between floors. Thus when starting a new oor there are always rigidly connected upwardly projecting erection elements presenting side edges against which the end portions of full height 3,535,841 Patented Oct. 27, 1970 precast structural walls may be braced and connected. This eliminates the need for temporary braces and frees the crane as soon as the wall has been swung into abutment with said side edges of the erection walls, erection elements for the next floor above being supported endwise on the upper ends of the first erection elements and beiilg secured to upper portions of the adjacent structural wa i It is a general object of the present invention to provide a lbuilding system which speeds the erection of buildings of the type using preformed concrete structural walls and elements.
A further object of the invention is to provide a building system which saves substantial expense by freeing the crane for further work as soon as a structural wall has been swung into proper position.
A further object of the invention is to provide a building system in which the erection walls and structural walls are very rigidly braced and supported to improve the overall rigidity of the building.
With the above and other objects in view, the invention consists of the improved building system, and all of its parts and combinations, as set forth in the claims, and all equivalents thereof.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS In the accompanying drawings, illustrating one complete embodiment of the preferred form of the invention, in which the same reference numerals designate the same parts in all of the views:
FIG. l is a vertical sectional View through a building, a central part of the structure being broken away;
FIG. 2 is a fragmentary view on a smaller scale showing an outside elevation of one of the outside walls of a typical building;
FIG. 3 is a fragmentary perspective view showing the improved erection method at an end of a building;
FIG. 4 is a fragmentary View looking down on the top of one of the floors showing an intermediate structural wall element connected in position to two erection elements, a central portion of the wall being broken away, and the dotted lines indicating a position of the structural wall before its ends have been swung into abutment with the erection elements; and
FIG. 5 is a fragmentary vertical sectional view through a portion of the building looking from the inside tward an outer wall.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Referring more particularly to the drawing, the improved building system features preformed erection elements 10 which are one story in height, but are staggered with respect to the floor levels, their lower ends positioned Well below a Hoor level and suitably anchored in position, and having their upper ends terminating intermediate oors, as is illustrated in FIGS. l and 3. While the erection elements 10 may be of any preformed material they are customarily preformed concrete members of elongated rectangular shape which have been precast and brought to the building site.
In FIG. l is illustrated conventional footings 8 in ground 9, the footings usually being of poured concrete and supporting foundation walls 12. The level of the ground 9 may vary depending upon the particular situation. The
first set of erection elements must be suitably anchored below the level of the rst floor 11. Any suitable method may be employed for anchoring the lower portions of the lowermost erection walls. One suitable method is to have the foundation walls 12 formed with shoulders 13 on which the lower edges of the erection elements 10 may rest as shown in FIGS. l and 3. The erection elements may be cast with nuts 14 therein for threadingly receiving the ends of bolts 15. A suitable number of the bolts 15 may be employed to anchor the lowermost portion of the lowermost erection elements 10, which elements are to be used in supporting the first fioor structural walls 16.
The first floor 11 may be formed of any suitable material, but in the type of building under consideration it is usually composed of elongated preformed concrete planks 17, preferably prestressed. The planks may be supported on the upper edges of the foundation wall as shown in FIG. 3 where there are ledges 30 for the ends of the planks. In this type of building there will be a plurality of structural walls 16 which are to extend transversely of the building to divide the interior space and also form ends of the building as in FIG. 3. They also furnish support for the ends of the concrete planks 17 which will form the floors thereabove. These structural walls 16 are precast and trucked to the building site. Each structural wall 16 is then lifted by a crane and swung up above the level of the floor which it is to be used, and then lowered until the lower edge 18 of each structural wall is over a structural wall therebelow as in FIG. 5, the planks 17 being thereafter laid in place. These structural walls 16 are relatively long and heavy and considerable difficulty has heretofore been encountered in temporarily holding them before they are anchored in place.
With the present invention the erection elements 10, which are rigidly anchored below the floor, and which have upper portions projecting well above the level of the floor on which the structural walls are being laid, afford a novel means for supporting these structural walls. Preferably there will be erection elements 16 at the outside of' the building located in a position to support a structural wall wherever such structural walls are used. FIG. 2 shows a typical spacing on the outside of the building between two tiers of erection elements 10. Preferably the erection elements 10 on one side of a building are staggered with respect to erection elements 10 on the opposite side, as shown in FIG. 4. This then permits a crane to lower a structural wall 16 into an oblique position as shown by dotted lines in FIG. 4, the wall 16 then being swung until its end portions 19 abut against the side edges 20 and 20 of the oppositely-disposed erection elements. When in the full line position of FIG. 4, a structural wall 16 will be immediately self-supporting and the crane may be promptly disconnected and swung away for further use. While FIG. 4 illustrates the two erection elements 10-10' to be staggered on opposite sides of the building, and while this is the preferred arrangement, the system can be carried out if the erection elements are directly opposite one another, and this arrangement is required at the ends of a building. In this particular situation it may be necessary to insert one or more tie bolts 21 before disconnecting the crane.
In either method one or more tie bolts 21 are inserted through preformed holes 22 in the erection elements and through holes 23 at the ends of the structural walls 16. Suitable nuts are threaded on the ends of the tie bolts. When all of the stuctural walls which are needed on a given floor have been secured in position, then the outside wall portions of the front and rear of the building may be filled in between tiers of erection elements 10 with suitable units filling the distance between floors. In FIG. 2 there is illustrated a number of window-containing units 25 and these may be spaced at intervals by precast wall elements 26 `which are the same size and shape as the erection elements 10 but are the same size and shape as the erection elements 10 but which extend from one oor to 4 another and which are not located to support structural walls. From FIG. 2 it is clear that the erection elements 10 are vertically staggered with respect to the conventional elements 25 and 26.
To prepare for the work on the second fioor 27 a new set of erection elements 10 are installed as shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3. The lower ends of these erection elements are supported on the upper ends of the first set of erection elements, the joint line being at 28. This line 28 is staggered between floors. For convenience it is midway of the height between floors. Thus each erection element will extend from a line halfway below one floor to a line halfway above, as is clear from FIGS. l and 3. Conventional outside wall elements would all extend from one floor to another fioor as do the elements 26 of FIG. 2, or would be multiples of a story in height. After the second set of erection elements 10 is installed and bolted to upper portions of the structural walls 16 by nuts and bolts 29, then another set of structural walls 16 is hoisted into position by cranes and they are swung into position for temporary support by erection elements in the manner shown in FIG. 4 and are then bolted to said erection elements. Thereafter more of the floor and ceiling planks 17 are laid to form the second floor 27. The ends of these planks 17 are supported on T-Shaped upper end portions 30 of the structural walls. This procedure may be carried out from story to story until the building is completed. While FIG. 1 discloses a building with only two stories above the basement, the system may be applied to buildings of any desired height, FIG. 3 indicating a building where there are more than two oors. At the top of the building, as in FIG. 1, short elements 35 are used above the last erection elements 10 and 10 to fill the space at the upper half of the top fioor.
