E. B. REPP. METAL STRUCTURE.
APPLICATION FILED JULY 5, 1907.
EPHRAIM BENJAMIN REFP, OF NEW WINDSOR, MARYLAND.
METAL STRUCTURE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Nv.[26, 1907.
Application filed July 1907- Serial No. 382.286.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EPHRAIM BENJAMIN REPP, a citizen of the United States of America, and a resident of New Windsor, in the county of Carroll and State of Maryland,
- have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Metal Structures, of which the ollowing is a Specification.
M invention is an improvement in framing or metal structures such-as described, shown and claimed in my application filed February 12, 1907, Serial Number 356,982, which relates particularly to the construction of walls, rafters, braces and ridges in which I employ structural metal shapes and metal sheets combined therewith as a roofing or covering therefor.
The main object of my resent invention is to provide an improved aming for metal structures in-which structural metal sha es, metal roofing or covering sheets and bin 'ng or holding clamps for the roofing or covering sheets are em loyed.
Another ob ect of my invention is to utilize single or sectional structural metal shapes.
Another object of my invention is to provide intermediate structural metal shapes,
- roofing or covering sheets, and metal binding 1 or holding clamps which can be built up or constructed in strips separate from the structure for a plication thereto. I
With t ese and other objects in view to enhance the value of such framing my invention consists in the novel features of construction and arrangement of parts as hereinafter described and claimed.
In order that my invention may be full understood I will proceed to describe it with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which,
Figure 1 is a transverse section of my improved framin having main structural metal shapes 0 I-form, intermediate structural metal shapes of T-form, metal roofing or covering sheets havingtheir edges overlapping the shapes, and metal binding or holding clamps; parts between the shapes being omitted. F1g. 2 is a similar view showing the method of building the framing. Fig. 3 is a detail transverse section showing a shape of I-form and the edges of the roofing or covering sheets overlapping. Fig. 4 1s a similar view, showing a sectional shape of I- form composed of a pair of channel shapes secured together by an inner binding or ho da shape of I-form and roofing or covering sheets having their edges overlapping the shapes. Fig. 6 is a similar view showing a sectional shape of I-form composed of a pair of channel shaples secured together by suitable means suc as bolts. Fig. 7 is a similar view showing a sha e of I-form and outer and inner coverin s ieets having their ed es overlapping the s apes. Fig. 8 is a simi ar view s owlng a sectional shape of Tform composed of a pair of angle or L-sha es, roofing or covering sheets having their e es lapping the shapes and inserted therebetween, the shapes secured by suitable means such as bolts and an inverted T-shape having its leg inserted between the legs of the angles and held in place by the bolts. Fig.
9 is a detail side view of a part of an intermediate metal bar for supporting the tie rods.
Referring to Figs. 1 and 2 of the drawings, I show a framing constructed with main or principal structural metal shapes of I-form aving webs 2]., outwardly projecting outer flanges 22; and outwardly projecting inner flanges 23. These main or principal shapes are se%arated or held at the desired distance apart y means of tie-rods or stress-rods 24, having screw-threaded ends 25 extending through perforations in the webs 21 of the main or rinci a1 shapes, where they are secured a justa ly thereto by inner spacing nuts 26 and. outer locking nuts 27.
Between the main or principal shapes and parallel therewith are intermediate metal supporting bars 28 for the tie rods 24, which are preferably passed through openings 29 at the edges of the bars 28. These tie rods 24 and nuts 26 and 27 prevent lateral motion or vibration to the framing. Located above and resting upon the tie rods 24 are a series of intermediate structural metal sha es of T-form having legs 30 and outward y projecting flanges 31. Extending from shape to shape are metal roofing or covering sheets 32 having their edges 33 turned up against the shapes and overlapping the outwardly projecting flanges thereof. 34 are binding clamps grasping the outwardly projecting flanges whereby the edges 33 of the sheets 32 are securely held to the shapes while permitting the expansion or contraction of the sheets or their ready removal or replacement.
In Fig. 7 I have shown outer and inner metal covering sheets applied to the outer and inner flanges of I-shapes.
' clamp. Fig. 5 is a similar view showing 1 As shown in Figs. 4 and 6 the structural metal shapes of I-form may be composed of a pair of channels 21 having their inner arts secured together by an inner binding 0 amp 34 as shown in Fig. 4 or by a stove bolt 24* and nut 27 as shown in Fig. 6. In Fig. 8 I
have shown a structural metal shape of T form composed of a pair of angles or ells and edges 33 may be" over apped as shown in Figs. 3'and 4.
. Referring again to Fig. 2, I there show the method of building my im roved framing. I place the main or principal shapes in posltion. Then I place the intermediate supporting bars 28 at the desired distance apart between the main or principal shapes and pass the tie rods 24 through perforations in the webs 21 and the openings 29 in the intermediate sup orting bars. 28. I then free the screw threa ed ends 25 of the tie rods 24 at the inner side of the webs 21 of the main or principal shapes and ap ly the spacing nuts 26 to said screw threadhd ends 25 and reinsert the screw threaded ends 25 through the webs 21 of the main or principal shapes and secure them by placing the locking nuts 27 on the extremities of the screw threaded ends 25 against the outer sides of the webs 21 of the main or rincipal shapes. I then take the metal roo g or covering'sheets 32 and turn up the edges 33 thereof a sufficient height so that they will project above the flanges 22 as shown at 11. Then turn the edges 33 down upon the flanges 22 as shown at I). Then apply a binding clamp 34 thereto as shown at 0. Finally, I take a pair of tongs as shown at (1, whereby the binding clamp 34 and the edges 33 of the sheets 32 are tonged or bent to conform approximately to the flanges 22, and thus tension is produced transversely of the sheets '32. The completed joint is shown at 0., g
It will be understood that in describing the structural metal shapes, either as single or sectional, I refer to both the main or principal shapes or the intermediate shapes as in carrying out my invention I may use tees,
angles, ells, eyes, or channels, either singly or in pairs.
Having thus described my mvention, the
following is what I claim as new therein and.
desire. to secure by Letters Patent.
