Definitions

  • ABSTRACT An above-ground mausoleum construction formed of a plurality of interlocking, precast, monolithic modular units forming crypts arranged in tiers, is disclosed.
  • a single tier includes a right end. intermediate, and left end modular unit. each of which includes at least two upstanding walls. an upper horizontal portion and a rear wall. the spacing of each of the walls being uniformly predetermined so as to receive a casket therein.
  • Each module is designed to be interfitted and sealed with non-shrinking grout with a next adjacent module forming non-aligned horizontal and vertical lap joints. ln this manner. a substantially monolithic structure is obtained.
  • Each of the upstanding side wall portions merges with the horizontal slab portion at an expanded haunch portion which is provided with anchors for supporting a removable face plate.
  • Each crypt is readily sealed with a closure plate sealingly positioned at the open end of the crypt within recess provided along the perimeter thereof.
  • This invention relates to an improved. above-ground. multi-level mausoleum construction. More particularly. the invention relates to a mausoleum construction comprising a plurality of tiered. interlocking. pre cast modules. which, when assembled. yields a substantially monolithic structure with improved stability and rigidity characteristics and which is capable of withstanding external forces without damage.
  • a mausoleum construction comprising a plurality of tiered crypts formed from modular. monolithic. precast concrete modules. each of the tiers including a left end. intermediate. and right end module. positioned in horizontal side-by-side abutting relationship with next adjacent sections. and interlocking with one another to form unitary structure. after assembly.
  • the intermediate modular section includes an upper. horizontally disposed slab. a pair of spaced vertical or upstanding side walls having respective longitudinal axes and depending from the horizontal slab. and a rear wall. The spacing between the upstanding side walls is of a predetermined width. preferably uniform. to form a crypt cavity.
  • the horizontal slab includes one edge terminating adjacent one of the upstanding side walls forming a ledge therein, and an opposite edge projecting beyond the longitudinal axis of the next adjacent upstanding side wall for a predetermined distance. in cantilevered fashion.
  • a rear wall is provided which extends substantially from the longitudinal axis of one of the vertical walls to beyond the free edge of the cantilevered horizontal slab portion. Ledges are provided in the next adjacent module for receiving the free edges of both the cantilevered portions of the horizontal slab and the projecting portions of the rear wall for interlocking purposes.
  • each tier is illustrated to be identical with respect to the modular unit employed therein. when compared to the remaining tiers. this arrangement can also be varied such that left and right end modular units of adjacent tiers can be different to further displace the nonaligned horizontal and vertical joints formed by the interloclting modules.
  • the left end modular unit can include a single crypt. whereas in the overlying tier. the left end modular section can be larger.
  • each of the upstanding side and rear walls of each modular unit tapers downwardly so as to be received and grouted in grooves provided in the upper surface of the modular unit positioned in the tier directly below.
  • Each modular unit is in a secured position during assembly to effect proper alignment of the sections.
  • a non-shrinking grout is employed to form fluid-tight joints for interengaging units.
  • the mausoleum construction of the present invention offers considerable structural and cost advantages over prior techniques.
  • the mausoleum construction of the present invention is a substantially monolithic structure which is self-supporting. No additional supporting walls are required. further reducing construction costs.
  • Construction versatility is another feature of the present invention, with as few as three crypts to twenty thousand or more crypts per installation. erected.
  • the precast concrete modular units can be readily fabricated in a plant under carefully controlled conditions and shipped to the construction site for assembly. using a minimum of skilled labor. structurally.
  • the mausoleum construction of the present invention has a high degree of stability by virtue of non-aligned. interlocking lap joints.
  • the mausoleum construction of the present invention is capable of withstanding external forces, e.g.. high wind loadings. climatic changes. and the like, without damage to its fluid-tight joints.
  • external forces e.g.. high wind loadings. climatic changes. and the like.
  • FIG. 1 is a pictorial representation of an illustrative embodiment ofa mausoleum construction according to the present invention. with portions removed to show certain internal features.
  • FIG. 2 is a pictorial representation of a modular unit in interlocking relationship with a next adjacent modular unit shown in phantom. with particular emphasis on the horizontally and vertically disposed lap joints at the abutting upper and rear walls.
  • FIG. 3 is a pictorial illustration. in exploded view. of the preferred modular units employed in forming a single tier of the mausoleum construction of the present invention. with alternative right end modular units being shown.
  • FIG. I The mausoleum construction of the present invention. as shown in perspective in FIG. I, is a four tier structure. each tier represented by the symbols I. II. III and IV. from bottom to top. respectively.
  • the four tier mausoleum is supported by a concrete base 10.

  • the rear wall free edge 21 forms a lap joint 24 with the vertically extending ledge 25 (see FIG. 2) formed in the rear wall portion of the next adjacent right end modular units C and D.
  • the lap joint 24 has a transverse and vertical component 24a. 24b. respectively. which provides interlocking means for the portion of the rear wall extending beyond the terminal edge 16 of the upper slab I4.
  • the interlocking distance is shown in FIG. 2 as X and is equal to the distance between the terminal edge 16 of the upper slab I4 and the longitudinal axis of side wall 12.
  • the intermediate modular unit B also includes a similar ledge 25 at its rear wall 20 running vertically from the longitudinal axis of the upstanding wall 12 to the left for receiving the projecting rear wall portion 21 of left end modular unit A therein.
  • the side walls ll. 12 are generally tapered with their lowermost portion being narrower than the intermediate portion 30 or their enlarged portion or haunch 3!.
