. Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Dec. 17, 1907.
Application filed May 18. 1907- Serial No. 374.365.
T 0 all 'whom i t may concern:
Be it known that I ROBERT EDMONDSON,
a citizen of the United States, residing at South Bend, in the county of St; Joseph and State of Indiana, have invented certam new and .useful Improvements in Reinforced Interlocking Concrete Walls, of which the following is aspecification.
This invention relates to reinforced inter,
locking concrete walls.
One ob ect of the invention is to provide a reinforced mterlockmg concrete wall embodvin such characteristics that moisture and frost cannot penetrate through the wall.
Another object resides in the provision of a reinforced concrete wall constructed to withstand intense heat in the event of a fire, and therebyprevent collapsing of the wall incident to heat due to fire.
With the above and other objects in view, the presentinvention consists in the combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter more fully described, illustrated in' the accompanying drawings, and particularly pointed'out in the appended claims, it being understood that changes may be made in the form, size, proportion, and minor details without departing from the spirit or-sacrificmg any of the advantages thereof.
In the draw ngs z-F1gure 1 1s a horizontal sectional view of a corner of a structure embodying my invention. "mentary perspective view of a portion of a wall illustrating my invention. Referring now more particularly to the accompanying drawings, the reference character 1 indicates a concrete or other ce1nenti-.
tious wall which is preferably tamped and 4 built up in molds to provide a continuous wall without 1 oints. Molds for building s without joints are old and common and in this application I am not prevent moisture or 0st from penetrating Fig. 2 is a frag-.
air space be-' entirely through thewall. The spacing of these members may be effected by the disposition between them of a sheet of asbestos 4, which I prefer to .be corrugatedso as to hold the metallic members in spaced relation and also to provide the dead air space between the members to obviate the possibility of moisture or frost penetrating the wall beyond the first or outer metallic member.
By virtue' of the outer metallic member water cannot possibly leak into the dead air space.
Concrete deteriorates easily under intense heat and it is for this reason that I prefer to employ an asbestos filling. The asbestos fillin is a non-conductor and protects the inner half of the wall from heat in case of fire. If g.
the outer surface of the wall should crumble or collapse incident to intense heat the inner portion of the wall'wouldremain intact, thereby preventing the entire building from collapsing. It is obvious that if-the outer wall should crumble fromthe effects of heat that the same could be easily and rapidly re-- paired, the interlocking members holding the re air material in place.
t will be understood that each plate 2 and 3 may be formed in separate pieces or in one piece, as
separate pieces that at the corners 'of the structure each corner plate would preferably consist ofone piece extending around the corner of the building.
(hat is claimed is 1. A reinforced concrete wall comprising cementitious material, interlocking metallic reinforcing members embedded in the wall,
each member being of dovetail corrugated formation in cross section and fitting one within the other, and means arranged bev tween the metallic members to provide a dead air space between the latter.
2. A'reinforced interlocking concrete wall comprising cementitious material, metallic rem orcmg members embedded lnthe wall, each member being of dovetail corrugated formation in cross section and fitting one within the other, andcorrugated asbestos arranged between the metallic members to provide a dead air space between the latter.
'3. A wall comprising sheet metal members spaced apart and arranged in alternating dovetailed channels and ribs, with the chanr" nels and ribs of one member interlocking withthe channels and ribs of the other memmay be preferred. It will also be 85 understood that if each plate is formed of ber, sheets of asbestos bent to conform to the name to this specification in the presence of gnfiguriattion of th}: spac'ed meltalplates and two subscribing Witnesses.
'spose etweent esame, an cementitious v material applied to the outer faces of the ROBERT EDMONDSON' 5 ribs of the metal members and within the Witnesses:
dovetailed interstices therebetween. GEORG OLTscH,
testimony whereof I have signed my' G. M.'COLE.
