Application filed June 10, 1907. Serial Nb. 878,304.
To all whom it may concern: Be it known that I, GUY zen of the United States, residingat York, Pennsylvania, have invented certain Improvements in Sheathing Metallic Frames of Buildings, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is to provide a simple, cheap, and expeditiousmeans for securing covering, sheathing, or facing material to the structural metallic framework sheathing blocks secured to the framework in accordance with my invention; Fig. 3 is an enlarged section on the line b--b, Fig. 1; Fig. 4 is a perspective view of a slightly modified form of retaining device, and Fig. 5 is a perspective view illustrating a still further modification in the form of the re tainer.
In the construction of many classes of buildings having a structural metallic frame work it is advisable to provide a sheathing or covering of a less expensive and otherwise more acceptable character than masonry, and my invention has been designed with the view of providing such a covering which can be readily fixed in place, or as readily removed, without injury, when desired, so that while my invention is of general application it is of especial value in the con-.
again and again. My invention also provides for the use of sheathing of any desired concrete, asbestos-board, or in fact any material which the exigencies of the case mayrrequire or the character of the building may suggest as the most a propriate.
Fig. 1 o the drawing shows part of a vertical column intended for use in the structural framework of a building and consisting WEBSTER, a c1t1- of vertical members 1 and 2 and diagonal 'braces 3, forming a truss, the vertical members, in the present instance, consisting of angle bars placedback to back with the braces between them, and the whole being riveted or otherwise suitably connected together, although my invention is not limited to this particular form of column but is applicable generally .to structural frames to.
which retainers for the sheathing blocks can be secured or of which said retainers may form part.
As shown in Figs. 1 and 2 the retainers are formed by projectin the ends of the braces 3 beyond the face of the vertical member 1 of the column, so that when bevel-edged sheathing blocks 4: are. applied to said face, as shownin Fig. 2, the projecting ends 5 of the brace may be bent one in one direction and the other in the opposite direction as shown by dotted lines in Fig. 2 so as to overlap the beveled ends of the locks and thereby firmly secure the same to the vertical member 1 of the column.
The retainer shown in Fig. 3 consists of a metallic strip 6 secured between the angle bars of the member 1 and having its projecting end split so as to rovide upper and lower fingers 7 which can e bent in opposite directions in order to engage the beveled ends of the sheathing blocks 4:, the inner end of the strip being, by preference, bent around the flange of one of the angle bars,
as shown at 9, for greater security, and, in a structure of this character, the member 1 may of itself constitute oneof the elements of the structural frame instead of being merely a member of a column or other element of such framework.
When it is not convenient or desirable to bevel the ends of the sheathing blocks the retainer 6 may be made with flanges on its outer portion, as shown for instance at 10 in Fig. 4, or, when it is desired to provide vertical support for the sheathing blocks upon the vertical member of a column or other component part of the structural framework, a-retainer such as that shown in Fig. 5 ma be employed, this retainer having a vertical flange G" for being secured to the vertical member of the frame and a horizontal flange 11 for insertion between superposed sheathing blocks, this flange 11 being also, by preference, provided with vertical edge flanges 12 for laterall confinin said sheathing blocks to the ace of the rame. 1
When it is desired to render the sheath ing wind and weather roof the spaces between the, adjoining blocks may be filled with cement or other equivalent sealing material. I
I claim 1. The combination of the structural me tallic framework of a building having, as elements, pairs of metallic bars and pairs of diagonal race bars disposed between the same and all rigidly secured together, the ends of said diagonal brace bars projecting beyond the face of the frame, and sheathing blocks secured to said face of the frame by the bent projecting ends of said interposed diagonal brace bars.
2. The combination of the structural metallic framework of a building, with sheathing blocks confined in place upon said framework by retainers lying alongside of and rigidly secured to members of said structural metallic framework, said retainers projecting between said sheathing blocks and overlying the latter.
3. The combination of the structural metallic framew orkof a building, with sheathing blocks confined in place upon said framework by retainers lying alongside of members of said structural metallic framework and rigidly secured to said members between pairs of the same, said retainers projecting between said sheathing blocks and overlying the latter. v
4. The combination of the structural metallic framework of a building with sheathing blocks havin beveled ends, and retainers secured to said E tions projecting between adjoining blocks and bent so as to overlap said beveled ends of the same.
5. The combination of the structural metallic framework of a building having as elements thereof brace bars with projecting ends, and sheathin blocks secured to the framework by the bent projecting ends of said braces.
In testimony whereof, I have signed my name to this specification, in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
GUY VEBSTER.
