Definitions
- the building has walls and partitions which are consti tuted by an assembly of interconnected prefabricated elements, Each of the elements comprises a ladderframe having uprights and cross-members 01" identical thickness in respect of all of the elements.
- the uprights and cross-members define wall parts in which are disposed filler means or chassis or frames for windows or doors connected to the uprights and crossmembers.
- End uprights of each element define an end edge surface of the element.
- the connection at 90 or 180 of a plurality of adjacent ones of the elements being along the end surfaces thereof so that the end surfaces of adjacent pairs of the elements in the connection define two adjoining sides of a squaresectioned prismatic region.
- the present invention provides a building composed of prefabricated elements wherein the walls and the partitions are constructed by the assembly of elements comprising a ladder-frame whose uprights and cross members which have an identical thickness in respect of all the elements are connected to filler wall parts or to chassis or frames for windows and doors, the assembly of two elements at 90or l80being achieved by a connection interconnecting the edge portions of the two elements, which edge portions are disposed in the manner of two faces of a square-section prism.
- the invention thus employs an application and an adaptation to buildings of the technique of ladder-girders which has been well tried in many constructional works by the use of ladder-frames the spaces of which are closed by filler wall parts, chassis or frames.
- the elements obtained which are preferably employed for the construction of structures having merely a ground floor or one storey, for individual houses or for schools, hospitals, motels, offices, etc, are self-sustaining and may be cheaply manufactured in the factory.
- the filler wall parts are panels of the sandwich type constituted by a core of low-density injected plastics material such as polyurethane foam, and surface sheets, this plastics material being furthermore employed for the rigid and sealed connection of panels with the uprights and the corresponding cross-members which are for this purpose constructed in the form of box structures filled by the plastics material.
- the elements are thus both monolithic and light so that their assembly for the construction of the building can be carried out by hand, with no need to employ hoisting or lifting machines.
- the manufacturing operation is carried out by means of a press with the use of positioning fixtures both for the section members constituting the uprights and cross-members and the wall parts, chassis and frames.
- a plastics material as the main material of the elements, in the form of a low-density foam, also affords an insulation of high quality. Any thermal bridge between the outer faces and inner faces of the elements may moreover be avoided by providing, in the construction of each box-like upright and box-like cross-member two metal section members whose sides perpendicular to the elements are out of contact with each other, their connection being achieved by the filling and connecting plastics material.
- the surface sheet of the sandwich panels may be of any type for example of fibro-cement, aluminium. enamelled sheet metal.
- the assembly of two adjacent elements may be effected by means of tubular elements or collars the section of which defines a square whose side dimension equals the thickness of the uprights, these tubular elements or collars being bolted to the edges of the end uprights.
- the framework carried by a suitable foundation and produced by assemblies of the elements constituting the walls and partitions is completed by a ceiling and possibly by a floor, both of which are constructed, for example, by means of panels secured to purlins bolted to the upper cross-members of the ladder-frames and by a covering formed preferably from horizontal members constituting roof trays in the bottom of which is poured a mass of plastics material, such as polyurethane foam, whose upper face has an inclination to allow waters to flow.
- the trays are assembled in a sealed manner by an interfitting of their end portions which are provided with a section suitable for this purpose.
- the assembly may be carried out easily and may include the operations for connecting up the electric wires and piping which may be integrated in the elements constituting the walls and partitions in the course of their manufacture in the factory.
- the elements constituting the walls and partitions are divided into two series, one series comprising primary elements which define between the successive uprights wall parts, that is to say, regions to be filled or, to be provided with windows or doors. all of which regions have an equal length, the other series comprising secondary elements which, in order to permit the division into fractions of elements of the main series. have each a length less than that of the element of the first rank of the primary series, the difference corresponding to the width of the joint or joints to be provided on a length of the partition or wall in which the considered secondary element is integrated, equal to the length of a primary element of higher rank, in order to ensure the assembly at with one or more other wall or partition elements.
- a wall element 2 metres long of the primary series may be replaced by two elements 0.95 metre long of the secondary series with a joint whose width, 0.10 metre, is equal to the thickness of the walls and partitions.
- the invention departs from conventional modular systems in which the reference length is invariable which often renders architectural, manufacturing and assembly problems complex owing to the variable dimensions of the wall. partition and pillar thicknesses.

- a building having walls and partitions which are constituted by an assembly comprising prefabricated elements and connecting means for interconnecting the prefabricated elements.
- each of said elements comprising a ladder-frame having uprights and cross-members. which uprights and cross-members have an identical thickness in respect of all of said elements and define wall parts.
- connection at 90 or 180 of a plurality of adjacent ones of said elements by said connecting means being along said end surfaces thereof in such manner that said end surfaces of adjacent pairs of said elements in said connection have edges adjoining each other and define two adjacent sides of a square-sectioned prismatic region.
- said connecting means interconnecting said elements in said region, the interconnected elements being sufficiently strong and rigid to constitute bearing walls and the connecting means being merely sufficient to per form their connecting function and insufficient to perform a load carrying function.
- the elements being divided in two series, a first series being formed by standard primary elements and a second series being formed by standard secondary elements.
- the secondary elements being shorter in plan than the primary elements by an amount equivalent to the dimension of one side of said square-sectioned region whereby to permit a combination of partitions and walls with the use of said standard primary and secondary elements.
- said elements being divided into two series, a first series being formed by standard primary elements which define wall parts between successive uprights in which wall parts said structures are mounted, all of which parts of said first series having an equal first length in plan.
- the second series of elements comprising standard secondary elements which define wall parts between successive uprights in which wall parts said structures are mounted. all of which wall parts of said secondary elements having an equal second length in plan.
- each secondary element which defines a given number of wall parts having its length in plan which is less than the length in plan of a primary element which defines the same number of wall parts by an amount equivalent to the dimension of one side of said squaresectioned region.
