- the structure 1 comprises prefabricated floor panels 2 each having a sheet of flooring grade reconstructed timber particle board 3 secured by screws and glue to timber joists 4, typically spaced at 600 mm centres.
- the floor panels 2 may be supported on bearers 5 of a conventional bearer and stump floor structure or a cast concrete slab as later described.
- a wall panel 6 comprises a plurality of timber parallel stud members 8 spaced at 600 mm centres secured by screws and glue to opposing facing sheets comprising an outer skin 8 and an inner skin 9 and for the sake of clarity certain portions of inner skin 9 are omitted.
- Outer skin 8 may be weatherproof or marine grade ply, fibre reinforced cement or the like while inner skin 9 may be 19 mm sheets of particle board.
- the inner skin sheets 9a may be staggered to avoid long unsupported vertical joints. The joints may be supported by thin splicing members 10 secured to abutting sheets 9a and extending within the hollow cavity formed between the studs 7.
- a timber eave beam 11 is secured on the outer skin 8 at the upper edge thereof by screws extending into studs 7 and it will be noted that in the embodiment shown certain of the studs 7a protrude beyond the upper edges of the inner and outer skins 8,9 while all studs protrude below the lower edges of the outer and inner skins 8, 9 respectively.
- roofing trusses 12 Supported on the eave beam 11 and secured by screws or bolts to the protruding top ends 7a of studs 7 are roofing trusses 12 supporting roof and ceiling battens 12a, 12b respectively, the latter also providing a fixing point for the top plate 13a of a non-load bearing interior wall 13.
- roof trusses 12 are secured to the building structure intermediate upwardly protruding studs 7a, they are secured to eave beam 11 by a steel truss bracket 14.

- Each of the wall and floor panels (and roof panels where used), the fixing beams, floor joists, roof trusses and the like are all designed to fit within a standard (20/40) foot container such that the structure and cladding of a complete building structure can be delivered on site as a complete prefabricated kit of parts for easy assembly by relatively unskilled labour.
- the building structure Being architect designed, the building structure is designed primarily for functionality and flexibility in design rather than with rigid dimensional limitations of "standard" modular components which impose severe constraints on building designs and their functionality. While generally speaking, the height of a prefabricated wall panel is limited either to the internal height or width of a shipping container, this is the only real design constraint as prefabricated panels up to six metres in length can easily fit into a shipping container in an upright or flat position.. The simplicity of the panel assembly procedure enables a set of prefabricated wall, floor and roof panels to be assembled for a particular house design, which, along with other structural elements may be loaded directly into a shipping container as they are produced. While some standardization of panel dimensions is possible it is not a necessity with the system according to the invention.
- FIG. 2 shows schematically a part front elevational view of a wall panel according to one aspect of the invention.
- wall panel 15 comprises window and door apertures 16, 17 respectively formed during panel construction. If required, a window and a door may be fitted during the panel construction.

- the upper and lower sheeting panels 20, 21 are standard 1200 mm by 2400 mm sheets while the intermediate sheet 22 measuring 600 mm by 2400 mm has a joint seam 23 staggered with respect to joint seams 24 between the upper and lower sheets 20, 21.
- sheet sizes of 1200 mm x 3600 mm and 800 mm x 3600 mm may be applied as appropriate.
- the protruding upper and lower ends 7b are the protruding upper and lower ends 7b,
- FIG. 4 shows an enlarged cross-sectional view in the direction A-A in
- the wall section shows a stud 7, an outer skin 8 and inner skin sheets 20 and 22 forming a joint 25 supported by a splicing member 10 to which sheets 20 and 22 are screwed and glued. If required a waterproofing and/or insulating membrane 26 may be located between studs 7 and outer skin 8 during fabrication of the wall panel.
- the interior cavity between adjacent studs and inner and outer sheets is continuous from the top to the bottom of a wall panel and this facilitates easy connection of utilities such as power, gas and water to desired locations within the building structure after the main structure is erected.
- FIGS. 5 and 6 respectively show top plan views of the configuration of intermediate and corner wall joints.
- a socket and spigot joint is formed between adjacent panels 6a, 6b by positioning end stud 7d so that portion of stud 7d protrudes to form a spigot which occupies a socket-like recess formed by locating an opposite side wall stud 7e in a recessed position as shown.
- the joint is simply glued and screwed for strength and weather resistance.
- a corner panel 6c is formed with a recessed end stud 7e and outer skin 8 terminates beside recessed stud 7e.
- the corner joint is formed by fixing the protruding flange 28 of inner wall sheet 9 to the end of end stud 7 of an adjacent wall panel 6. After fixing the corner joint a corner trim 29, is fixed to the corner region.
- FIG. 7 shows the attachment of a wall panel 6 to a precast concrete slab base 30.
- a timber fixing beam 31 is secured or otherwise formed about the periphery of the slab 30.
- a support ledge 32 formed from a strip of material having the same thickness as inner wall lining sheet 9 is secured to fixing beam 31.
- Support ledge 32 serves to support the mass of a wall panel 6 while fixing screws 33 are inserted via the lower protruding ends of studs 7 into fixing beam 31.
- a decorative trim panel 34 of folded sheet steel covers the protruding lower ends of studs 7 with an upright flange 35 and otherwise forms a closure for the open cavities 38 between adjacent studs with a horizontal flange 36.
- Horizontal flange 36 also forms a support ledge for a folded strip of metal mesh, forming an insect barrier 39 to the hollow cavities 38 within the wall panels but otherwise allowing for a current of air to flow through the barrier 39 into cavities 38.
- a skirting strip 40 is then secured to the inner wall at the intersection between wall panel 6 and the upper surface of slab 30.
- FIG. 8 shows the attachment of a wall panel to a floor panel supported by a conventional floor support structure.
- the floor support structure 41 comprises spaced stumps or columns 42 secured in concrete foundations or the like (not shown).
- An angle bracket 43 secured to each stump or column 42 secures timber or RHS bearers 44 in spaced parallel rows.
- a fixing beam 31 is secured via brackets 45 across the ends of each floor joist 4 and the floor joists 44 are in turn fixed to bearers 44 by mounting brackets 46.
- the floor panels are mounted on bearers 44 in edge to edge abutting relationship to form a work platform from which further construction may be facilitated.
- Wall panels 6 are then secured to fixing beams 31 and trimmed in the same manner as described with reference to FIG. 7.
- FIGS. 9 and 10 respectively show the attachment of a roof structure based on prefabricated roof trusses and a roof structure based upon prefabricated roof panels.
- a timber fixing beam 31 is secured across as least the opposed wall panels 6 supporting the roof structure 50.
- Prefabricated timber trusses 51 are supported at 900 mm centres on the fixing beam 31 with the chord 52 resting in the top of fixing beam 31.
- Each alternate truss is secured via screws or bolts 53 to the upper protruding ends of alternate wall studs 7 and the trusses therebetween are secured to fixing beam 31 by mounting bracket 54 extending between the truss 51 and fixing beam 31.
- the roof structure may then be finished in a conventional manner by roof sheeting 55 supported on roofing battens 56 extending across the trusses 51.
- a fascia 57, gutter 58 and soffit 59 are all installed in a conventional manner.
- a ceiling 60 of gypsum, MDF, particle board panels or the like then may be fixed to the undersurface of ceiling battens 61 in a conventional manner and, if required, the junction between the ceiling 60 and the inner wall sheet 9 may be trimmed with a cornice or the like not shown.
- FIG. 10 shows the attachment of an alternative roof structure in the form of prefabricated roof panels 70 comprising an outer skin 71 of weather resistant ply or the like and an inner skin 72 of particle board or MDF separated by spaced rafter members 73 formed in a jig in a manner similar to the wall panels 6 as hereinbefore described and with parallel hollow cavities 7b between adjacent rafters.
- the rafters 73 are spaced at 6500 mm centres such that when supported on fixing beam 31 each rafter 73 may be secured to a respective protruding upper end of a wall stud 6 by screws or bolts 53. In addition, if required, rafters 73 may be secured to fixing beam 31 by mounting brackets 54 extending therebetween. The inner ends of rafters 73 are secured to respective inner ends of rafters of opposing roof panels in a gable roof structure by brackets (not shown).
- the eaves region of the roof panel 70 does not include an inner skin whereby access to the joint between the upper ends of studs 6 and rafters 73 is facilitated as in access to hollow cavities 74 between adjacent rafters for electrical wiring or the like.
- a roofing material 75 such as contoured steel sheet, tiles, shingles or the like is secured directly to the outer roof panel skin 71 in an appropriate manner and otherwise the roof is finished in a conventional manner by attachment of a fascia 57 to the ends of rafters 73 and the attachment of a rain water gutter 58 to the fascia.
- a soffit panel 59 of fibre reinforced cement sheet, weather-proof ply or the like is secured in a conventional manner to the exposed rafters 73 in the region of the eaves.
- FIG. 11 shows a part cross-sectional view of a building structure constructed in accordance with the invention.
- the wall panels 6 all comprise a plurality of hollow channels 38 between adjacent wall studs and these cavities are unimpeded by noggings, top or bottom wall plates thereby allowing easy access for the installation of services after the building has been constructed.
- These upright hollow cavities also provide a flow path for air to be drawn through the cavities from bottom to top by a convection current generated by solar radiation impinging on the outer wall surfaces. Cooler air from beneath or around the base of the building is drawn into the wall cavities via the insect screened openings as shown in detail in FIGS. 7 and 8 and progresses upwardly into the ceiling cavities 76 and thence into a space between the opposed upper ends of roof panels supported by brackets 77.
- a ridge capping 78 having an enlarged central cavity enables heated air to be exhausted to atmosphere from opposed ends of the capping.
- a combination trim/ventilation member 78 is secured over the space between the inner roof panel sheets and allows air to be exhausted from within the building structure.
- additional interior vents 80 may be provided at the junction between the interior wall and ceiling panel joints to exhaust air from within the structure by a venturi effect due to the air flow within the wall and ceiling cavities.
- the convection cooling effect may be enhanced by solar radiation impinging on both an outer wall and at least one side of the roof.
- the prefabricated modular nature of structures according to the invention lend themselves well to low cost housing for disadvantaged persons, relocatable housing for remote mining camps or the like, the flexibility in design and quality of finishings allows an almost unlimited range of choice in single storey dwelling designs to accommodate a wide range of budgets from standard designs to minimally adapted designs to unique architecturally designed structures.
- the prefabricated modular nature of the structures coupled with the fact that structural kits or packages are designed to fit neatly into a shipping container offer substantial savings in materials costs, transportation and building construction with unskilled or semi-skilled labour.
