Definitions
- This invention consists in utilizing essentially the following construction elements a preferably metallic carrier and light-weight framework consisting on the one hand of tubular main posts distributed along the entire perimeter of the construction and disposed in any suitable and desired manner, and on the other hand of trussed beams assembled to one another by means of small posts similar to the main posts, to constitute at the bottom a floor supporting structure and at the top a ceiling and roof supporting structure, as well as the general wind-bracing structure of the construction,
- a pavement or flagging having a heat insulating function and consisting of prefabricated girders, which comprises two opposed channel elements assembled with each other by means of a suitable cement or equivalent means, the cavity constituted by this channel assembly being filled with sound and heat insulating material.

- FIGS. 6 and 7 are a vertical section and a horizontal section, respectively, showing the use of sealing joints between superposed and juxtaposed panels;
- FIG. 8 is a vertical section showing an interior partition arrangement
- FIG. 8a is a horizontal section showing a pair of juxtaposed interior partitions
- FIGS. 9, 10 and 11 are an elevational view and two perspective views on a larger scale, respectively, showing the method of assembling superposed vertical tubular main posts, and the means therefor;
- FIG. 12 is a horizontal section showing the use of a duct and pipe or service partition
- FIG. 13 is a sectional view of a special roofing tub
- FIGS. 14 and 15 are vertical and horizontal sections, respectively, showing typical window and door frames.
- the framework of the building or house illustrated by way of example is a metal framework comprising vertical elements consisting of tubular main post 10 of any suitable square-section configuration, and horizontal elements consisting of trussed beams 11.
- the main posts 10 are distributed along the construction perimeter with a relative spacing consistent with the general lay-out module of the projected construction. Intermediate posts, for avoiding excessive spans in the trussed beams, may be disposed as required in this construction. On the other hand, these intermediate posts are provided from the onset at certain points of the construction as will be explained presently.
- the trussed beams 11 consist of section irons l2 interconnected by bracing members 13, for instance round sectioned irons.
- These trussed beams are assembled with small posts 14 having the same cross-sectional configuration as the main carrier posts 10. They are rigidly assembled by bolting and constitute at the lower portion of the structure a lattice network supporting the floor 15 and at the upper portion a ceiling and roofing supporting network as clearly shown in FIG. 1.
- an integral thermal-gap flagging is incorporated in the floor structure.
- This flagging shown diagrammatically at 16 in FIG. 1 and on a larger scale in FIG. 2, consists of prefabricated compound joists.
- the length of these prefabricated compound joists corresponds to the construction module or to a multiple thereof, and the joists themselves consist each of a pair of metal channels 17, 17a assembled with their concavities facing each other and containing a core 18 consisting in the selected example 3 and preferbly of a loaf" of expanded polystyrene or any other material suitable for the purpose.
- This flagging is also incorporated in storey floors.
- joists are laid with the interposition of a heat and sound insulating material upon the top surface of the trussed beams 11 constituting the floor supporting network.
- the top surface of the flagging 16 consisting of the aforesaid joists is advantageously lined with panels of relatively great dimensions, notably of wood or equivalent material, to constitute the flooring proper of the rooms, which may subsequently be covered in turn with any desired material such as carpets, moquette, etc.
- the small posts 14 supporting the floor are each provided with a ram 19 permitting the bearing and adjustment of this floor.
- angleirons 20 fastened to the framework limit the floor area toward the facade or exteriorwalls.
- the construction is somewhat spaced from the supporting ground in order to provide a so-called sanitary" gap of a magnitude consistent with the height contemplated for the trussed beams l 1.
- the construction may bear directly as conventional on a concrete pavement 21, or if desired on a nogging or pugging layer overlying said sanitary" gap, or a cellar, as a substitute for the trussed beams and prefabricated floor.
- the main posts 10 comprise each at their base an anchoring lug embedded in the flagging through any suitable means.
- These main posts are interconnected, on the frontage, by marginal section members 22 shaped for receiving facade panels or like revetment elements, as well as shuttering edges when casting the floor finishing layers constituting the room flooring.
- the construction comprises a roofing or covering structure incorporating tubs 23 visible more particularly in FIG. 1 and adapted to collect and drain off rain water, the use of these tubs making it possible to dispense with the use of troughs and roof-gutters or other rainwater discharge means.
- These covering tubs 23 consisting of metallic, plastic or other materials, notably plywood, are so dimensioned that they fit properly in the meshes constituted by the trussed beams 11; furthermore, these tubs comprise integral marginal outer flanges 23a bearing on the suitably shaped upper surfaces of these trussed beams l 1.
- any rain-water from the terrace thus formed by the tubs 23 is drained off through cylindrical nozzles 24 located approximately centrally of the four sides of each tub so as to communicate with one another.
- the water-tightness of these tubs is obtained by using acroterium section or edge cover members 25 disposed astride on the marginal flanges 23a of tubs 23 with the interposition of a suitable sealing strip or other jointing materials or means.
- These acroterium section members 25 are bolted to the suitably shaped upper elements of the tnissed beams.
- crossshaped cover members 26 are bolted to the top of main posts 10 or small posts 14 to complete the sealing means.
- This fastening arrangement efficiently prevent any lifting of the roofing under strong wind conditions.
- Another tub 28 of particular configuration is disposed on top of the duct and pipe cell to be discussed presently and receives in a channel 28a the rainwater and in its central portion the ducts and pipes 4 such as 29, 29a for the heating, ventilation, aeration, exhaust, air-conditioning and other systems.
- the same type of tub may receive in its central portion designed for this purpose a translucent or opaque cupola, whether openable or not.
- the shape of the main tubs 23 is designed to facilitate the draining off of rain water, and the absorption of any expansion caused by temperature variations is permitted by their lyre shaped cross-section.
- the raised, convex shape of the bottom surfaces of these tubs 23 is advantageous in that, in addition to the improved rainwater draining feature, they can accomodate and protect a thermal and sound screen consisting for example of plates 27 of expanded polystyrene or other material, with or without the application of a sound-proofing flocked layer.
- the floor thereof will consist of grating-forming panels of wood or other suitable materiel, supported by tubs 23 and bearing on the peripheral flanges of the acroterium section members 25, the rain water being drained off through a suitable opening of floor and collected by tubs 23.
- Outer wall or front string-courses and, if necessary, parapets or balustrades are bolted to the tops of main posts 10 above the cross-shaped covers 26 registering with the framework nodes.
- a light-weight trussed metal framework constituting a twoor four-sided roof, with a variable inclination for the lost or unused attics, with or without fixed frame or bracket, is secured to the tops of the main and/or small posts of the carrier framework.
- This framework is covered with the roof purlins receiving the roofing panels nailed or stapled, on which any desired covering such as tiles, slates, asphalt and asbestos shingles may be laid.
- the rainwater is drained off in the conventional fashion through eavesgutters or troughs with front down-pipes.
- a false ceiling consisting (see FIG. 1) of gratings 30 of same size as the modular elements or meshes e of the carrier framework, or corresponding to a multiple or submultiple thereof, made of wooden elements, wooden sections or moulded plastic elements, or any other suitable material, with or without integral reinforcing ribs, is secured by means of projections 30a to the underface of the roofing trussed beams 11.
- the visible face of this false-ceiling may of course be painted or lined with material of any suitable type.
- the construction is lined with front or exterior panels 31 shown more particularly in FIGS. 2 and 5, one panel being shown in vertical section and the other in horizontal section; these panels are preferably light-weight panels of prefabricated sandwich construction, their length corresponding likewise to the modular length e of the construction, or to a multiple or sub-multiple thereof.
- the panels according to this invention consist of a tubular frame made preferably of squaresectioned metal tubes 32 and adapted to stiffen the panel, with facing sheets 33, 33a of any suitable material, such as sheet-metal, plywood, asbestos cement boards, etc. covered by an external lining 34 consisting for example of sandstone cement, glass, lamellar stones, sheet-metal, sandstone, luamelles sandstone or stoneware, etc.
- the space bounded by the frame 32 and the facing material is filled with any suitable material such as expanded polystyrene, polyurethane foam, phenolic foam, etc., in order to provide a core 35 having reliable isolating and insulating properties.
- This panel is surrounded or enframed by an assembly of section members 36 secured to the panel by means of a suitable cement or other means, the specific crosssectional shape of the members 36 being clearly shown in FIGS. 6 and 7.
- This metal or plastic section member 36 comprises more particularly a central U-shaped portion having its vertical arms 36a bent at right angles towards each other, such central portion being connected to the side wings 37 cemented to the revetments 33, 33a and to the frame 32, with notches 37a formed therein to facilitate the anchoring thereof to revetments.
- Each central portion 36 constitutes a channel 38 acting as a gutter for draining off any condensation fluids and also as a means for fastening secondary anchoring elements such as comer posts, as will be explained presently.
- This central portion 36 in conjunction with the corresponding side of the section member, provides on either side a channel 39 having notched edges 40 adapted to be engaged by weather strips 41 capable of sealing the joint between two juxtaposed or coupled panels 31, or section members such as 42 shaped for snap engagement into the respective channel and also; in their portion projecting from the panel to constitute a weather-strip, in the case of superposed panels, as shown in FIG. 7.
- Other sections such as 43 may also be detachably fitted into the channels 39, these sections 43 extending vertically between juxtaposed adjacent panels 31 (see also FIG. 7) and being lined with foam strips 43a for preserving or restoring the water-tightness of a panel assembly in case the joint does not comprise a framework main post 10.
- the section members 37 are folded as at 37b to protect the revetment edges and the lining thereof.
- a vapour protection sheet 44 may also be provided on the internal side of frame 32 as a function of the specific nature or material composition of the revetments and/or the linings thereof.
- Each exterior panel 31 constitutes a non-carrier filling element mounted on the framework elements according to a specific method constituting a particular feature of this invention, as will now be described in detail with reference notably to FIGS. 1 and 2:
- Each panel is suspended at its upper portion from a roof or storey trussed beam by means of hooks 45 rigid with the panel and engaging corresponding studs 46 rigid with the trussed beams.
- the panel position in the vertical direction is adjusted by means of screws 47 (FIG. 1) engaging tapped holes formed in hooks 45.
- this method of erecting the panels prevents warping stress from being generated in the panels, thus ensuring a continuous adherence of the Weatherstrip and other sealing strips while affording a certain clearance at the bottom of each panel not only for discharging any condensation likely to develop along the panel edges but also for permitting a certain panel expansion in case of temperature variations.
- the panel 31 is subsequently secured to the bottom of the framework (see FIG. 5) by means of bolts loosely 6 engaging flanges 48 surrounding the framework main posts 10.
- the panels are fastened at their base by loosely bolting then to the edge section member 22 already mentioned in the foregoing (see FIG. 3) provided for mutually assembling the framework main posts 10.
- the front or exterior fluid-tightness is obtained automatically by assembling, due to the presence of weatherstrips 41 having lips 41a engaged in the channels 39 formed by section members 37 enframing the panels.
- This water-tightness is reinforced by a foam strip or like seal 49 cemented vertically along the outer surfaces of main posts 10 (see FIG. 5) and adapted, due to the arrangement contemplated for mounting the panels to the framework, to be pressed by the panel in its final position.
- These weatherstrips 41 are also useful in that they provide a heat and sound insulating gap between the interior and exterior of the construction. Thus, a complete weather tightness is obtained automatically by simply mounting or fitting the panels in position.
- the weather-strip or watertight moulding 42 already mentioned hereinabove will assure automatically the horizontal watertightness with the adjacent underlying panel when fitting the upper panel in position.
- FIG. 5 illustrates a typical assembly of corner panels; this angle assembly comprises along its projecting corner a panel 50 of adequate configuration, and along its re-entrant corner formed by a pair of perpendicular panels 51, 51a a false post 52 having its inner surfaces lined with a finishing material 53, such false comer 52 being assembled in turn with a framework main post 10, as shown.
- joinery incorporated in the construction consists of wooden, metal, glass or plastic elements, but other materials may be used as well.
- An outer frame 54 of wood, metal, plastic or other material is fastened by means of screws to the inner joinery elements of the panel for clamping a sealing strip or gasket 54a against a panel 31 and thus protect the window bay 55 against rain-water; under these conditions, it is clear that all joinery elements are an integral part of the panel and can be prepared complete with window panes or glasses at the manufacturers workshop (see FIG. 14).
- the panels may be made of moulded plastic material.
