SHEET 1 UF 3 IN VENT 0R5 fla /0 34c W41 75? Far/ MAM I CAM 0.5 M. 18430044 ATTORNEYS PRECAST CONCRETE RAIL CONSTRUCTION DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to a precast railing assembly and more particularly to such an assembly which can also be utilized for ornamental purposes. Such railings are usually used on the exterior of buildings as a safety rail for balconies and stairs, etc. In modern building construction it is often desirable to have a balcony along the entire length of an exterior wall, the balconies for individual rooms or apartments usually being separated from each other by the same type of railing that is used along the edge of the balcony as a safety measure. In such construction it is desirable to have a railing which is easily secured in place, economical to manufacture and capable of withstanding both aging deterioration and the effects of high winds and adverse weather.
It is an object of this invention to satisfy the foregoing requirements by fabricating an easy to assembly railing of concrete material. It is also contemplated that other materials such as plastics or metals, for example aluminum, could be used.
It is the further object of this invention to provide a railing asrembly which is of high strength and durability but is yet easy to assembly and finish in place on a job site by relatively unskilled installers.
It is a further object of this invention to eliminate the need for any structural cap at the top of the railing as is now required with present precase railing assemblies.
To achieve the foregoing objects, the present invention comprises a precast reinforced concrete post and railing assembly wherein the posts are anchored to the flat surface by a steel dowel protruding from the bottom of each post and wherein the railing is formed from pairs of spaced panels slidably inserted into grooves along the surfaces of two adjacent posts.
Other objects and advantages of this invention will become apparent upon a review of the drawings which form a part hereof and illustrate the best mode presently contemplated for carrying out the invention. In the drawings:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an overall assembly showing typical panels for both horizontal and stair construction along with the accompanying posts;
FIG. 2 is a top view of the three types of posts used in connection with this invention;
FIG. 3 is a side elevation, partially in section, of a typical comer post showing two panels assembled therein and separated by a spacer between them;
FIG. 4 is a front view of a typical open panel used in the construction of this invention;
FIG. 5 is a solid panel used in construction of this invention;
FIG. 6 is a return panel used in construction of this invention;
FIG. 7 is a typical panel of the type used for slanting stair railings;
FIG. 8 is a sectional view taken along line 8-8 of FIG. 4;
FIG. 9 is a sectional view taken along line 9-9 of FIG. 5;
FIG. 10 is a sectional view taken along line 10-10 of FIG. 6;
FIG. 1 l is a typical spacer used for horizontal panels; and
FIG. 12 is a typical spacer used for inclined installations such as on a stair railing.
Referring now to the drawings in more detail, FIG. 1 shows an open panel being supported by two posts 22 and 24. Post 24 is a typical post having longitudinal grooves 32 on opposite sides thereof while post 22 is a comer post having longitudinal grooves on adjacent sides thereof. Post 26 is a return post having a longitudinal groove 31 on only one side thereof. The configurations of these three posts can be seen by reference to FIG. 2 which shows these posts from a top view. Two panels 20, of identical construction, are held in place between posts 22 and 24 merely by sliding them down in grooves 30 and 32 respectively. Since neither of these grooves run to the bottom of the post thepanel section is prevented from sliding all the way down to the bottom. The two panels are vertically spaced apart by spacers 34 (see FIG. 11). Grooves 30, 31 and 32 of the respective posts extend to a point short of the bottom end of the post and provide a supporting shoulder 33 for thelower panels of the railing.
In the case of stair panel sections which are cut on a slant, a spacer 36 which has inclined end surfaces 37 thereon to approximate the angle of inclination of the stairs (see FIG. 12). The spacers may be of any appropriate length.
Panel 38 is a modified form of a panel having an elliptical or any other appropriate decorative embodiment embossment or recess therein. It should be understoodthat these panels can also be made with an open construction, or with different openings and shapes for varied architectural efi'ects.
Referring now to FIG. 3, it can be seen that typical post 22 has a steel reinforcing rod 42 projecting therefrom so that it can be secured in a hole 40 in the concrete base or floor 39 of a balcony. The steel reinforcing rod 42 is embedded within post 22 for most of its length and extends beyond the bottom end of the post to form a steel dowel ready to be embedded directly into a hole 40 in the floor 39 with suitable grout material which is of a high test nonshrinking character. One example of this material if POR-ROK." Grout material would also be distributed between the bottom of the post and the deck surface of the balcony as shown in FIG. 3.
FIG. 4 illustrates a panel 20 with an opening 21 formed therein, which may be of any suitable size or shape, and surrounded with reinforcing rods 46 embedded in said panel.
FIG. 5 illustrates a panel 60 with a recessed area 61 formed therein, which may be of any suitable size or shape.
Panel 60 is suitably reinforced with rods 46 and wire mesh FIG. 6 illustrates a return panel 50 with a longitudinal recess 51 formed therein, the object being to provide a panel that can be cut at either end without destroying its symmetry. All of the panels are preferably provided with slightly beveled or rounded edges wherever desired to minimize chipping and to improve appearance.
FIG. 7 illustrates a stair panel construction showing that the panels are normally cast with square ends as shown in dotted lines thereon. These square ends are cut as required to suit the angle of inclination of the stair on the job during installation.
By way of illustration only and not as limitation, a typical panel can be about 3 feet 8 inches long and about 16 inches high. These panels can be cast of concrete about 2 inches thick while the grooves in the post are about 2% inches wide and 1% inches deep in order to allow adequate room for sliding the panels into the grooves. The posts can be about 6 inches square so that a center to center measurement between adjacent posts is 4 feet 0 inches. In a typical construction the bottom panel is slid in first between two posts which have already been vertically positioned with the proper dimension between them, two spacers are inserted, one on each side, and then the top panel is slid into place to rest on the spacers. The entire assembly is then sealed together by means of a cement and sand and water grout, or in cases where extreme weather will be encountered by a high strength nonshrinking grout.
