Description

CONSTRUCTION SYSTEM TO BE USED IN SEM -PERMANENT CONSTRUCTION
The invention relates to a construction system to be used in semi-permanent construction, comprising wall elements with synthetic foam material provided with a circumferential profile and also comprising coupling elements to be provided in said profile for linking said construction wall elements.
A construction system of this type is known from international patent application No. PCT/NL91/00115
(publication No. WO 92/01124) . The known construction system can be built up of construction wall elements which are made of a layer of polyurethane foam material and of parallel concrete slabs, with said layer being provided between said slabs. Coupling elements and concrete slabs of different configurations are used for linking adjacent construction wall elements horizontally and vertically respectively.
A drawback of the known construction system and the construction wall elements is the complex construction procedure and the comparatively costly manufacture and assembly of the known construction wall elements.
The object of the present invention is to avoid the above- mentioned drawbacks.
In order to accomplish that objective the construction system according to the invention is characterized in that said construction wall elements can be used to form all walls (upright walls, ceiling(s), floor(s)), and that said construction wall elements are made in one piece of said synthetic foam material. The advantage of the construction system according to the invention is that it can be universally applied for walls, ceilings, floors and the like, and that horizontally linked construction wall elements as well as vertically linked construction wall elements can likewise be interconnected in a uniform manner by means of identically shaped, simple coupling elements and be built up to form a building, such as a house or a block of houses, a school, a hospital and the like.
The construction wall elements, which are according to the invention preferably entirely made of the same synthetic foam material (for example styrofoam; EPS) , are lightweight and, because they are made of only one material, very simple to produce.
Furthermore it is possible to use a single-walled construction, that is without a cavity being provided, which makes the construction system according to the invention suitable for semi-permanent or commercial and industrial construction, whilst it can also be suitably used for temporarily accommodating for refugees or homeless people, for example, because a great many accommodations can be assembled in a very short time with the construction system. In this connection especially the construction
(carcass work) of temporary accommodations in earthquake- prone regions or the construction of (temporary) houses in for example Third World countries may be considered. If desired a factory can be erected there for the on-site manufacture of the synthetic foam material from the raw material required. Synthetic foam material (EPS hard foam) is an environment-friendly material and is in principle completely recyclable when used in combination with coupling elements made of wood.
In a special embodiment the construction wall elements in the construction system according to the invention have a length of 1 m, a width of 0.5 m and a thickness of 0.2 m.
The advantage of this is that construction wall elements having such dimensions is that one or more of such construction wall elements comprise the surface area of for example a window or a door. Leaving out one (or more) construction wall element(s) in the walls during construction provides a possibility of forming a window at that location, whilst a door opening is formed by leaving out two construction wall elements stacked on one top of the other with their short sides. If desired it is of course also possible to leave out for example 4 or 8 adjacent construction wall elements, in order to form a window or a door. Advantageous is furthermore the fact that when construction wall elements are left out, the circumference of the window or the door is fully bounded by coupling elements, which are thus available to function as a doorpost, a window frame or a connecting means for hinges and the like, for example.
The present invention and its concomitant further advantages will be explained in more detail hereafter with reference to the accompanying drawing, in which:
Figure 1 shows a preferred embodiment of a construction wall element according to the invention, to be used in the construction system according to the invention;
Figure 2 is a side view of the construction wall element of Figure 1;
Figure 3 shows in detail the manner in which the edges of adjacent construction wall elements are linked by means of a coupling element;
Figure 4 shows an alternative to the linking method shown in Figure 3; Figure 5 shows a part of a building built up of construction wall elements and coupling elements according to Figures 3/4;
Figure 6 is a detailed view of a corner of the building of Figure 5.
Figure 1 shows in perspective view a construction wall element 1, which in the illustrated embodiment comprises a uniform, closed channel 2 extending along the entire circumference of the construction wall element 1. The channel 2 is formed as a recessed part, which is provided circumferentially along the edge of the construction wall element 1. The construction wall element 1 is made in one piece of a synthetic material, such as styrofoam, also called EPS (hard foam) , or of for example polyurethane foam. Manufacturing the wall elements from one and the same synthetic foam material is advantageous in the quick and simple mass production of construction wall elements. The manufacture of the elements can thus be realized by using a simple production method.
The U-shaped channel 2, which has a square cross-section in the embodiment shown in Figures 1 - 3, is located in the centre plane perpendicular between the outer surfaces 3 and 4 of the element 1.
Figure 3 diagrammatically shows in cross-sectional view the manner in which two adjacent construction wall elements 1 and 1' are assembled by means of a coupling element 5, after being placed one on top of the other with their short sides or being moved into abutting relationship. In the final position approximately one half of the coupling element 5 will be inserted in the channel 2 of the construction wall element 1, whilst the other half of the coupling element 5 will be practically entirely inserted in the channel 2' of the construction wall element 1'. If desired a suitable adhesive may be applied to the various contact surfaces in order to effect said linking of the construction wall elements. The coupling elements 5 may be provided horizontally as well as vertically on the building site.
On the building site the various construction wall elements 1 linked by the coupling elements 5 are placed on a foundation that has been levelled in advance. Based on a flat floor thus built up of the various construction wall elements 1, wall elements are erected in those places on the floor where walls are to be erected, usually after having fixed these wall elements to the foundation in advance, whereby windows and doors can be formed at desired locations by leaving out wall elements, windows and doors. Figure 5 shows a diagrammatic illustration of a building consisting of several rooms, wherein the roof has been left out in order to provide a better view of the interior of the building. With a view to a uniform construction the various construction wall elements 1 preferably have standard dimensions of 1 x 0.5 x 0.2 m. After all walls have been erected to a height of for example 2 metres, a ceiling is built up of the same wall elements 1, whereby the various wall elements can be linked by the same coupling elements 5 again to form one complete ceiling.
The outer surfaces 3 and 4 of the construction wall element 1 are provided with shallow grooves or slots 6, in which a reinforcement may be provided, if desired, in order to provide a possibility of plastering the surfaces 3 and 4, if desired. This is conducive to the stability and the strength of the connection between the linked wall elements of the structure that has been formed.
The construction wall elements, which are preferably made of a white and consequently reflecting foam material, possess good sound insulating properties and have a very good thermal insulation value. The cross stability of the construction diagrammatically shown in Figure 3 is amply sufficient, because the corresponding contact surfaces, with which the construction wall element 1 is in contact with the construction wall element 1' , whether or not via the coupling element 5, extend parallel to each other, as is shown in Figure 3. In addition, the transport, loading and unloading of the lightweight construction wall elements can take place in a simple manner. Furthermore the construction wall element 1 made of a synthetic foam material can readily be worked. Of course the floor built up of wall elements 1, which may or may not be provided with reinforcement, may be filled with sand and/or concrete. Furthermore it may be desirable to anchor the vertical coupling elements in the ground in an appropriate manner, to prevent the floor from moving as well as to prevent the walls of a structure from being moved undesirably.
The coupling elements 5, which are elongated and whose cross-section is adapted to the shape of the channel 2, are for example made of wood, a synthetic material, a metal, such as stainless steel, etc. The advantage of using wood is that it is locally available under certain circumstances and can readily be worked, and that in addition it is an environment-friendly and recyclable material.
Figure 4 shows two construction wall elements 8 and 8' provided with corresponding dovetailed channels 7 and 7' for linking said wall elements by means of a coupling element 9, which is dovetailed on two sides in the illustrated embodiment. Said linking takes place by sliding the dovetails in the channels 7 and 7' one into another. The advantage of this is that no adhesive is required to provide a strong connection between the construction wall elements 8 and 8' . If desired the embodiments of Figures 3 and 4 may be combined to form a link which is U-shaped on one side of the coupling element and which is dovetailed on the other side. Figure 4 furthermore shows that the grooves 6 are dovetailed/trapezoidal. The advantage of this is that by using this shape the finishing material applied by the plasterer will firmly adhere in the grooves 6 and on the surfaces 3 and 4 after curing, also when no reinforcement is used.
Figure 5 shows a nearly completed building, which is built up of construction wall elements 1 and coupling elements 5 ■ in the manner explained above. The styrofoam construction wall elements which have been left out in the Figure and which have a certain shape, can be given a desired shape in a simple manner by means of a hot resistance wire.
Figure 6 shows a detail of a corner in the building of Figure 5. The floor built-up of construction wall elements 1 is bounded by a coupling element 5 shown in cross- sectional view, which butts against one side of a beam 10. A coupling element 5 likewise shown in cross-sectional view, which is secured to the other side of said beam 10, supports the vertical construction wall elements 1 of the left-hand side wall. Also the front wall including a window is supported by a coupling element 5, which is partially shown. The stiffness and the stability of the building will be enhanced when for example concrete or sand are deposited on the floor.
When for example construction wall element 8' is left out, the slightly constricted coupling element 9 can still function as a doorpost, a roof truss or a window frame, or as a point of attachment for hinges and window casements.
