Definitions
- This invention relates to an improved foundation bed suitable for use in the support of structural members for constructions.
- the structural members may, for example, take the form of walls, beams or the like.
- a foundation bed for structural members including a liner which includes a channel shaped element having electrical insulating properties which, in an installed position is disposed within a channel in a surface, the channel shaped element having a space therein which is adapted to receive at least partially a structural member, the foundation bed further including filler material which is receivable within the space within the channel shaped element so as to at least partially surround that part of the structural member disposed within the space.
- the channel shaped liner includes a base wall and spaced apart upstanding side walls, the cross-sectional configuration of the liner substantially conforming to the cross- sectional dimensions of the channel within which it is disposed.
- the structural member when in the installed position, rests on the base of the liner.
- the upper section of the structural member projects from the liner.
- the liner may be made from any suitable material such as, for example, an elastomer including plastics such as thermoplastic or the like.
- the filler may take any suitable form such as, for example, grout, plastics material such as foamed plastics or elastomeric material.
- the filler may be in the form of blocks or strips of material adapted to fit against opposite faces of the structural member.
- the filler material may have magnetic properties which in some instances can assist in assembly of the foundation bed.
- the liner is formed from a generally flat strip body.
- the strip includes hinge sections at selected positions so that it can be bent at the hinge sections so as to form the channel shaped liner.
- the hinge sections may be in the form of notches.
- the hinge sections may be in the form of thinned or waisted portions. This latter form of the invention finds particular application where the channel may be formed by slip forming
- the strip may be in the form of an extrusion.
- the liner may further include vibration isolating means for permitting limited deflection of the liner.
- the vibration isolating means may in one form include one or more grooves formed in one or more of the base and/or side walls of the liner.
- the vibration isolation means may include one or more elongated holes in one or more of the basic and/or side walls of the liner.
- the vibration isolation means may include a section or sections formed from cellular elastomeric elastoplastic material.
- the liner may also include support wall sections which, in the installed position abut against the structural member to assist in supporting the structural member against lateral forces.
- the support wall sections may be formed of material of greater rigidity than the other parts of the liner.
- the strip may still be formed as an extrusion using coextrusion techniques.
- a method of installing a structural member including the steps of forming a channel in a surface, providing a liner in the form of an elongated generally flat strip having hinge sections at spaced apart positions thereon, locating the liner above the channel, positioning the structural member on top of the liner, causing the structural member to be lowered into the channel and thereby causing the liner member sections to move relative to one another at the hinge sections so that the liner adopts a channel shape and is moved into the channel and providing filler material in the space within the liner around the structural member either before or after the structural member is lowered into the channel.
- Figures 1, 2 and 3 are schematic side elevations of different types of foundation beds for various examples of structural elements according to preferred embodiments of the present invention
- FIGS. 4(a) to 4(e) are schematic views of preferred forms of liner according to various preferred embodiments of the present invention.
- Figure 5(a) to 5(d) illustrate the sequence of steps involved in a method of installation of a structural member according to one preferred embodiment of the invention.
- Figure 6(a) to 6(d) illustrate the sequence of steps involved in the method of installation of a structural member according to another preferred embodiment of the invention.
- FIG. 1 of the drawings there is shown a foundation bed generally indicated at 10 for supporting a structural member in the form as a wall.
- the wall 50 is installed in a channel 60 in a surface such as a concrete surface 65.
- the foundation bed 10 includes a liner 12 of elastomeric material having a base 13 and side walls 14 and 15.
- the liner 12 is generally channel shaped and substantially conforms to the shape of the channel 60 in the surface 65. In the installed position the lower part of the wall 50 rests on the inner surface of the base, the wall projecting out of the channel.
- the liner 12 is formed from an elongated strip having hinge sections 17 and 18 extending longitudinally of the body.
- the hinge sections are in the form of notches which separate the body into sections which define the base 13 and side walls 14 and 15 of the liner.
- the hinge sections are in the form of thinned or waisted sections 17 and 18 of the strip.
- the liner further includes vibration isolating means in the form of slots or grooves 21, 22 and 23 which in the form shown are in the outer surface of the base 13 of the liner 12. It will be appreciated that in addition or alternative to these grooves there could be similar grooves in one or both side walls 14 and 15 of the liner 12.
- the space within the liner 12 is filled with grouting material 30, the grouting material surrounding the lower section of the wall 50.
- a foundation bed 110 for support a beam 150 for support a beam 150.
- the beam 150 is installed in a channel 160 in a surface 165.
- the beam 150 includes a lower flange 151, a web 152 and an upper flange 153.
- the foundation bed 110 is similar in structure and includes a liner 112 of elastomeric material having a base 113 and side walls 114 and 115.
- the liner 112 is generally channel shaped and substantially conforms to the shape of the channel 160 in the surface 165.
- the liner 110 further includes support walls 111 and 116 which abut against the beam 150 when in the installed position. In the installed position the beam 150 rests on the inner surface of the base.
- the lower flange 151 of the beam terminates adjacent the side walls 114 and 115 and the upper flange 153 of the beam 150 terminated adjacent the opening.
- the support walls 111 and 116 abut against opposite sides of the beam.
- the liner 112 is formed from an elongated strip having hinge sections 117 and 118 extending longitudinally of the body.
- the hinge sections as shown are in the form of notches or waisted sections which separate the body into sections which define the base 113 and side walls 114 and 115 of the liner.
- the filling material is in the form of blocks 130 and 131 configured to fit snugly against opposite sides of the web 152 of the beam 150.
- Figure 3 illustrates a different form of beam which can be used as a rail. Like reference numerals have been used to identify like parts.
- the flat strip from which the liner 12 is formed is located over the channel with the section forming the base wall 13 immediately above the channel 60 with the sections forming the side walls 14 and 15 disposed to respective sides of the channel 60.
- the wall 50 is then positioned on top of the section of the strip forming the base 13 of the liner.
- the weight of the wall 50 causes it to drop into the channel causing the sections of the strip forming the side walls of the liner to fold upwardly at the hinge sections 17 and 18.
- the flat strip from which the liner 112 is formed is located over the channel with the section forming the base wall 113 immediately above the channel 160 with the sections forming the side walls 114 and 116 disposed to respective sides of the channel 160.
- the beam 150 is then positioned on top of the section of the strip forming the base 113 of the liner.
- Blocks 130 and 131 of filling material are located adjacent opposite sides of the web of the beam. The weight of the beaml50 causes it to drop into the channel causing the sections of the strip forming the side walls of the liner to fold upwardly at the hinge sections 117 and 118.
- the bed of the present invention has considerable advantages in that the liner is low cost and very easy to install. It can be manufactured from an elastomeric material with suitable electrical properties and may contain particulate matter to achieve vibration and noise isolation of certain frequencies.
- the liner is suitably designed to allow controlled levels of deflection in order to further isolate vibration.
- the arrangement also facilitates installation and allows for fitment to various sized channels.
- a further advantage is that it allows for easy removal of the assembly from the channel for replacement or maintenance of beams.
