Definitions
- TITLE Building construction process with a completely unobstructed floor area
- the present invention relates to a method of constructing buildings.
- the purpose of the present invention is to build a building whose floor area is completely clear to achieve, for example, a space for hosting exhibitions or a meeting place, using light materials whose implementation does not require, on site, the use of delayed hardening materials involving the use of formwork.
- the method of the invention consists in using identical reinforcements, preferably in the form of a hyperbola arc, arranged, substantially along a circumference, assembled together at their upper part and at their lower part and joined together by cables judiciously. willing.
- FIG. 1 is an elevation view of a structure produced according to the method of the invention:
- FIG 2 is the top view of Figure 1;
- FIG. 3 is a partial view on a larger scale, similar to FIG. 2, more particularly illustrating an embodiment of the wiring of the fittings;
- FIG. 4 is a view, similar to FIG. 2, showing in the same figure two embodiments of the frames;
- FIG. 5 is a top view, partial and on a larger scale, showing an embodiment of a base intended to support the structure;
- FIG. 6 is. a view, similar to Figure 1, showing an alternative embodiment
- FIG. 7 is the top view of FIG. 6, limited to its central part;
- FIG. 8 is a view, similar to FIG. 6, showing another characteristic of the method of the invention;
- FIG. 9 shows, in elevation, another embodiment of the frames.
- the method of the invention proposes to produce a building structure 1 substantially affecting the shape of a hyperboloid of revolution.
- the structure is produced using a plurality of reinforcements 2 (not all shown in the drawings), each having the shape of a hyperbola arc. These frames are assembled, in the upper part and in the lower part, according to two circumferences 3 and 4 which will be described more law n.
- This rigid structure is surrounded by a plurality of cables 5 (
- each of said cables forming a polygonal loop which i tends towards the circle if the number of reinforcements is large.
- Each loop is located in a plane parallel to the base of the building.
- the invention provides for using a second layer of cables stretched between the top of a frame and the lower part of the adjacent frames.
- the invention provides for the use of a third layer of cables 7, each cable being situated in a vertical plane and joining the upper part of the structure and the lower one. This cable layer passes under the previous two. These cables 7 can extend under the reinforcements 2
- each frame can be formed by the association of two frames 2, joined at their lower part by a side 8 of ace to form a triangular frame 9
- a two frames 2 joined to leu r lower part by one side 8 and has their upper part by one side 1 0 to form a quadrangular reinforcement which can have a rectangular shape, if the sides 8 and 10 are equal or a trapezoidal shape if not
- the structure which has just been described may rest on a traditional masonry base or on a base produced by the entanglement of beams 1 1 assembled on site according to the process below described with reference to FIG. 5
- the beam 1 1 a rests on that 1 1 b and extends above that of 1 1 c on which rests said beam 1 1 b and so on.
- the beams are assembled two by two at their point of contact 12 and all rest on the ground by one, 13, of their ends.
- Points 12 are equidistant and are located on a circumference which corresponds to that 4 of Figure 1.
- Each beam 1 1 a is assembled to that 1 1 c, corresponding, in 1 4 by means of a wedge (not shown). In this way, the beams
- 1 1 a, 1 1 b and 1 1 c are assembled to form a triangulated system, two of which help to form the adjacent triangulated system.
- a base light but very rigid.
- the beams extend more or less beyond the assembly points 12 and 14.
- the reinforcements 2 are fixed to the base substantially at the right of the points 12.
- the distance between two adjacent points 12 is substantially equal to the length of the sides 8.
- FIG. 6 shows an alternative embodiment according to which the circumference 3 is formed by the assembly, according to their large bases, of trapezoidal reinforcement 15, the association of the small bases of which forms a circumference 16.
- This conical structure can be stiffened by one or more of the cable plies described above.
- the open circular space located at the top of the building can be closed off by an inflatable structure 17, the largest diameter of which is greater, as the case may be, than the diameter of the circumference 3 or that 1 6, said inflatable structure being kept applied under the corresponding orifice by any known means (cables, nets, etc.).
- the building produced according to the invention can be attached to a traditional construction, a wall for example, which cooperates with the structure to form a base with closed outline.
- the cables used may have a very flat section like a strap and be transparent and, or, translucent.
- oblique cables similar to those 6, can be used, each stretched between the upper part of a frame and a point the length of an adjacent frame.
- Each of the aforementioned cables can, starting from the upper part of a frame, be fixed to each of the frames it meets, the point of attachment on the last frame encountered can be located higher than that of attachment to the previous frame.
