Abstract

The invention relates to the structure and glazing of a glass roof or a glass facade which are designed in order to take advantage of the architectural qualities of the external adhered glazing and the behaviour and durability qualities of the respirating isolation glazing. The isolation glazing is comprised of an external glass (3) which is adhered to a frame (1) and an internal glass (4) which is made integral with the frame (1) by means of a water vapor permeable seal (5). The isolation glazing thus formed is punctually or continuously integral with the bearing structure by means of an H-shaped seal (8) of which the major part is inserted in the thickness of the glazing. The sealing between adjacent glazings is provided by means of a continuous U-shaped seal (13) completed or not by an elastomer seal (14) cast in situ between the external glasses. The assembly thus implemented forms at the periphery of the glasses a channel (B) containing outside air and a channel (C) for draining any water infiltration.

Description

Façade ou toiture verrière à face extérieure lisse et structure intégrée au vitrage Glass facade or roof with smooth exterior face and structure integrated into the glazing
La construction des façades-verrières et des toitures- verrières fait, soit pour raison d'esthétique soit pour facicilité de maintenance, de plus en plus souvent appel à la technique dite du vitrage extérieur collé (VEC). Dans le cas des verrières isolantes, le vitrage le plus fréquemment utilisé est un vitrage isolant comportant à sa périphérie un joint d'assemblage ètanche à la vapeur d'eau pour contenir et maintenir entre deux glaces une lame d'air déshydraté et exclure les risques de conden- sations sur les faces internes des glaces. Les conditions minimales de mise en oeuvre de ce type de vitrage selon la technique VEC, conduisent à des dispositions, du cadre qui les supportent et de leur jonction ètanche, qui enlè¬ vent au procédé une grande part de sa qualité esthétique. Par ailleurs, ce type d'ouvrage est le plus fréquemment supporté par une structure légère dont la défor abi 1 ité conduit à des contraintes du vitrage incompatibles avec la durabilité, par nature déjà limitée, des joints ètan- ches à la vapeur d'eau ,et par conséquence, à la durabi- lité du vitrage isolant lui-même.The construction of glass facades and glass roofs is done, either for aesthetic reasons or for ease of maintenance, more and more often using the technique known as bonded exterior glazing (VEC). In the case of insulating canopies, the most frequently used glazing is an insulating glazing comprising at its periphery an assembly joint which is waterproof against water vapor to contain and maintain between two windows a layer of dehydrated air and to exclude risks of condensation on the internal faces of the windows. The minimum conditions for implementing this type of glazing according to the VEC technique lead to provisions, of the frame which supports them and of their watertight junction, which removes a large part of its aesthetic quality from the process. Furthermore, this type of structure is most frequently supported by a light structure, the deformation of which leads to constraints of the glazing incompatible with the durability, by nature already limited, of water vapor tight seals. , and consequently, the durability of the insulating glass itself.
Une technique plus récente issue des études du CSTB (Cen¬ tre Scientifique et Technique du Bâtiment) et dite du vi¬ trage isolant respirant exclut les inconvénients propres au vitrage isolant ètanche à la vapeur d'eau. La présente invention porte sur une association des tech¬ niques, du vitrage isolant respirant, et du vitrage exté¬ rieur collé, dans le cadre de la construction des façades et toitures verrières .propre : â augmenter la durabilité de ce type d'ouvrage, à réduire - voire supprimer - l 'en- combrement de la structure porteuse des vitrages en sous- face de ceux-ci, à permettre l 'interposition d'un brise- soleil entre les deux glaces du vitrage isolant, et, à épaisseur égale des produits verriers mis en oeuvre, à augmenter la performance de l 'ouvrage en matière d'isola- tion acoustique. Pour atteindre ces résultats, selon une première disposi- sition de l 'invention, le vitrage isolant est constitué par l 'assemblage de deux glaces, ou tous autres produits de même usage, de part et d'autre d'un cadre en profilé, métallique ou autre, de dimensions et caractéristiques mécaniques telles, qu'il constitue avec la glace extéri¬ eure à laquelle il est solidarisé par collage, un ensem¬ ble susceptible de reporter les charges extérieures ap¬ pliquées au vitrage sur des appuis ponctuels situés â chacun de ses quatre angles. Dans le cas ou l 'une - voi¬ re les deux - dimensions du vitrage conduirait à une hau¬ teur du profilé incompatible avec la fonction isolante de la lame d'air, les appuis ponctuels pourront être rempla¬ cés par des appuis continus. Selon une deuxième disposition de l 'invention, la glace intérieure du vitrage isolant pourra être solidarisée au cadre intercalaire par un joint adhésif sur ses deux fa¬ ces, en mousse cellulaire perméable à la vapeur d'eau, ou tout autre matériau de même usage. Dans ce cas, la mi - gration de la vapeur d'eau vers l'extérieur qui constitue le principe de fonctionnement du vitrage isolant respi¬ rant, se fera au travers de ce joint périphérique. La glace intérieure pourra aussi être solidarisée au ca¬ dre par d'autres moyens, et notamment par collage, sur tout ou partie de sa périphérie. Cette disposition per¬ mettra, dans le cas de charges ou dimensions de vitrage exceptionnelles par exemple, d'augmenter sensiblement les caractéristiques mécaniques du produit. Dans ce cas, la migration de la vapeur d'eau pourra nécessiter l 'adjonc- tion dans la paroi du cadre, d'orifices munis de filtres anti -poussi ère.A more recent technique stemming from studies of the CSTB (Scientific and Technical Center for Building) and called breathable insulating glass excludes the drawbacks specific to insulating glazing waterproof to water vapor. The present invention relates to a combination of techniques, breathable insulating glazing, and glued exterior glazing, in the context of the construction of glass facades and roofs. Clean: to increase the durability of this type of structure, to reduce - or even eliminate - the bulk of the supporting structure of the glazing beneath it, to allow the interposition of a sunbreaker between the two windows of the insulating glazing, and, for equal thickness glass products used, to increase the performance of the structure in terms of sound insulation. To achieve these results, according to a first arrangement of the invention, the insulating glazing consists of the assembly of two windows, or any other product of the same use, on either side of a profile frame, metallic or other, of such mechanical dimensions and characteristics, that it constitutes with the exterior glass to which it is secured by gluing, a set capable of transferring the external loads applied to the glazing on specific supports located â each of its four angles. In the case where one - see the two dimensions of the glazing would lead to a height of the profile incompatible with the insulating function of the air space, the point supports may be replaced by continuous supports. According to a second arrangement of the invention, the interior glass of the insulating glazing may be secured to the intermediate frame by an adhesive seal on its two faces, made of cellular foam permeable to water vapor, or any other material of the same use. . In this case, the migration of water vapor towards the outside, which constitutes the principle of operation of the insulating glazing, will take place through this peripheral seal. The interior window can also be secured to the ca¬ dre by other means, and in particular by gluing, over all or part of its periphery. This arrangement will, in the case of exceptional glazing loads or dimensions, for example, significantly increase the mechanical characteristics of the product. In this case, the migration of water vapor may require the addition of holes in the wall of the frame fitted with dust filters.
Selon une troisième disposition de l 'invention, le pro¬ filé constituant le cadre aura une forme générale en U. L'aile de ce U située vers l'extérieur constituera la face de collage de la glace extérieure. L'aile située vers l'intérieur servira à la sol i darisati on, ponctuelle ou continue, du vitrage isolant à la structure porteuse de la verrière. Selon une quatrième disposition de l'invention, l 'aile extérieure du profilé constituant le cadre comportera le moyen de fixation - une gorge par exemple - d'un joint en polycl oroprëne ou autre matériau de même usage. Ce joint en forme de U, constitué en une résille continue assurera une liaison ètanche à l'eau entre les vitrages adjacents. Selon la position des vitrages ce joint cons¬ tituera, soit la première barrière d'étanchéité - cas de vitrages verticaux par exemple - soit la barrière secon- daire si un joint en élastomere est coulé in-situ entre les glaces extérieures pour constituer une face lisse et continue, ou entre les cadres intercalaires ou les mas¬ sifs de collage des glace extérieures si un joint creux est préféré. La sol idari sation des vitrages isolants à la structure porteuse s'effectuera, selon une autre disposition de l 'invention, par l'intermédiaire d'un joint en polyclo- roprêne ou autre matériau de même usage, en forme de H. La glace intérieure, le joint par lequel elle est sol i - darisée au cadre intercalaire ainsi que l 'aile intérieu¬ re de ce même cadre seront maintenus entre les ailes du joint en H. Pour ce faire, la partie du joint en H tour¬ née vers l 'extérieur comportera une clé amovible permet o tant une rotation à 90 de chacune des demi-ailes du H de telle sorte que le vitrage puisse être introduit en¬ tre elles ou qu'au contraire le joint en H lui-même puisse être introduit entre deux vitrages déjà mis en oeuvre. Le joint en H comportera sur sa face tournée vers l 'intérieur les moyens de sa sol idari sati on aux ap- puis, ponctuels ou continus, de la structure porteuse, - tenons d'ancrage dans les gorges d'un profilé en al¬ liage d'aluminium par exemple -. Le joint en polyclo- roprëne pourra être remplacé par deux profilés - métal¬ liques par exemple - assemblés pour constituer la forme en H du précédent et munis de joints d'étanchéité pour en assumer toutes les fonctions. Selon une dernière dispositi Hon de l'invention, les ca¬ naux situés entre le joint d'étanchéité extérieur en U et le joint structurant en H, restent ouverts en rives haute et basse de la façade de telle sorte que s'èta- blisse - naturellement ou avec l'assistance de moyens mécaniques appropriés - à la périphérie de chacun des vitrages, un flux d'air extérieur capable d'absorber l 'excèdent de vapeur d'eau migrant depuis la lame d'air contenue entre les glaces.According to a third arrangement of the invention, the profile forming the frame will have a general U-shape. The wing of this U located towards the outside will constitute the bonding face of the exterior glass. The wing located inwards will be used for the ground i darisati on, punctual or continuous, of the insulating glazing to the load-bearing structure of the canopy. According to a fourth arrangement of the invention, the outer wing of the profile constituting the frame will include the means of fixing - a groove for example - a polycl oroprene seal or other material of the same use. This U-shaped joint, made up of a continuous mesh, will ensure a watertight connection between the adjacent panes. Depending on the position of the glazing, this seal will constitute either the first sealing barrier - in the case of vertical glazing, for example - or the secondary barrier if an elastomeric seal is poured in situ between the exterior windows to form a face smooth and continuous, or between the intermediate frames or the masifs of bonding the external glass if a hollow joint is preferred. According to another arrangement of the invention, the idari sation of the insulating glazing units to the load-bearing structure will be effected by means of a polycarbonate or other material of the same use, in the form of an H. interior, the joint by which it is ground i-darisée to the intermediate frame as well as the inner wing of this same frame will be maintained between the wings of the H-joint. To do this, the part of the H-joint tour¬ born outwardly will include a removable key allows o both a 90 rotation of each of the half-wings of the H so that the glazing can be introduced en¬ be them or that on the contrary the seal in H itself can be introduced between two glazings already used. The H-shaped joint will have on its inside-facing side the means of its idari sati on ground at the point, point or continuous, of the supporting structure, - anchoring studs in the grooves of an al¬ section aluminum bonding for example -. The polycloprene seal can be replaced by two profiles - metal¬ for example - assembled to form the H shape of the previous one and fitted with seals to assume all of its functions. According to a final arrangement of the invention, the channels situated between the external U-shaped seal and the structuring seal in H, remain open at the top and bottom edges of the facade so that it settles - naturally or with the assistance of appropriate mechanical means - at the periphery of each of the glazings, a flow of outside air capable of absorbing the excess of water vapor migrating from the air space contained between the windows.

La figure 6 est une coupe semblable à la précédente au droit du dispositif de calage du cadre intercalaire du vitrage isolant. ζFigure 6 is a section similar to the previous to the right of the wedging device of the intermediate frame of the insulating glazing. ζ
L'on voit en premier lieu sur ces dessins les consti¬ tuants du vitrage isolant proprement dit, et notamment: -le cadre intercalaire en profilé d'aluminium (1) so¬ lidarisé par le joint de collage en silicone à haut module (2) â la glace extérieure (3),We see firstly in these drawings the components of the insulating glazing proper, and in particular: -the intermediate frame made of aluminum profile (1) so¬ lidarized by the high-modulus silicone bonding joint (2 ) outside window (3),
-la glace intérieure (4) solidarisée par le joint en mousse cellulaire (5) au cadre intercalaire (1), et le filtre anti -poussi ère (6) mis en oeuvre dans le cas ou le joint (5) n'est pas suffisemment perméable à la vapeur d'eau,-the inner glass (4) secured by the cellular foam seal (5) to the intermediate frame (1), and the anti-dust filter (6) implemented in the case where the seal (5) is not sufficiently permeable to water vapor,
-les organes de calage vertical (7) de la glace inté¬ rieure (4) par rapport au cadre intercalaire (1). Le vitrage isolant ainsi constitué, est livré en l 'état sur le site de construction.-the vertical setting members (7) of the inner glass (4) relative to the intermediate frame (1). The insulating glass thus formed is delivered as is to the construction site.
Les mêmes dessins montrent comment la vapeur d'eau con¬ tenue dans la lame d'air (A) migre au travers du joint (5) ou du filtre (6) pour assurer l 'èquillibre avec le flux d'air extérieur circulant dans le canal périphéri¬ que (B).The same drawings show how the water vapor contained in the air space (A) migrates through the seal (5) or the filter (6) to ensure equilibrium with the external air flow circulating in the peripheral channel (B).
Les dessins montrent encore:The drawings also show:
-le joint en H (8) fixé sur les appuis (9), ici con¬ tinus, de la struture porteuse et sa clé (10) de ve- rouillage de la fixation des vitrages isolants, -le joint en H (11) utilisé dans le cas ou le cadre intercalaire (1) est autoportant entre des appuis ponctuel s, -le dispositif de calage vertical (12), du vitrage isolant proprement dit sur la structure porteuse. Le vitrage isolant est ici en premier lieu posé sur ses appuis latéraux puis solidarisé à ceux-ci par la mise en place de la clé (10) du joint (8). Il est ensuite procédé à la pose du joint (11) entre les côtés autoportants du vitrage isolant. P-the H-shaped seal (8) fixed on the supports (9), here continuous, of the supporting structure and its key (10) for locking the fixing of the insulating glazing, -the H-shaped seal (11) used in the case where the intermediate frame (1) is self-supporting between point supports s, -the vertical wedging device (12), of the insulating glazing proper on the supporting structure. The insulating glazing is here first placed on its lateral supports and then secured to them by the installation of the key (10) of the seal (8). The next step is to install the seal (11) between the self-supporting sides of the insulating glass. P
Les dessins montrent aussi les différentes formes du raccordement ètanche des glaces extérieures qui font appel à la résille formée à partir du joint en U (13) qui constitue selon les cas: -soit la première barrière d'étanchéité,The drawings also show the different forms of the watertight connection of the exterior windows which use the mesh formed from the U-shaped joint (13) which constitutes, as the case may be: either the first sealing barrier,
-soit le canal (C) de drainage des infiltrations d'eau accidentelles par le joint en élastomere (14) coulé in-situ sur un fond de joint cellulaire (15).-or the channel (C) for drainage of accidental water infiltration by the elastomer seal (14) cast in situ on a cell seal bottom (15).
L'on voit pour conclure: -que pour satisfaire au premier objectif,tout le dis¬ positif de supportage, de ventilation et de drainage de la verrière s'inscrit dans l 'épaisseur même du vitrage isolant et en réduit considérablement l 'en¬ combrement, -que la hauteur de la lame d'air incluse entre les glaces confère au vitrage isolant, et toutes choses égales par ailleurs, les meilleures performances en matière d'isolation acoustique et autorise l 'inté¬ gration d'un brise-soleil qui sera ainsi soustrait aux agressions venant tant de l 'extérieur que de 1 ' i ntéri eur. -que les qualités esthétiques du vitrage extérieur collé sont exploitées sans aucune concession du fait à la fois de la faible emprise de la structure et de la suppression de l'habituel joint espaceur jouxtant le massif de collage de la glace extérieure, -qu'aucune contrainte parasite n'est susceptible de compromettre la durabilité de l'ouvrage. We see to conclude: -to meet the first objective, all the support device, ventilation and drainage of the canopy fits into the thickness of the insulating glass and significantly reduces the en¬ space, -that the height of the air gap included between the windows gives the insulating glazing, and all other things being equal, the best performance in terms of acoustic insulation and allows the integration of a solar shading which will thus be sheltered from attacks from both outside and inside. -that the aesthetic qualities of the glued exterior glazing are exploited without any concession due to both the small footprint of the structure and the elimination of the usual spacer joint adjoining the adhesive mass of the exterior glass, -none parasitic stress is not likely to compromise the durability of the structure.
