Description

FIXING DEVICE, BALUSTRADE AND METHOD OF FIXiNG
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a fixing device. it is particularly, but not exclusively, concerned with a fixing device which enables the attachment of a sheet glass balustrade to a concrete platform.
ci2fPJ4flPfrbJflhfttt2fl In many construction projects it is necessary to attach a glass balustrade onto a concrete slab. Typically the concrete slab makes up a floor of the building and the balustrade is desired to provide a secure edge around the floor to either an external or internal void. By using a balustrade made of structural glass, a secure edge can be provided whilst still admitting light into the building, or having a lower visual impact on the interior design of the building Wrien first used, glass balustrades were typically provided in a framed form, in which metal posts were set out along the edge and the sheet glass attached between these posts. More recently, "frameless" glass balustrades have become common due to their reduced visual impact and simpler construction. The present invention is primarily concerned with fixings for frameless glass balustrades.
In current practice, a frameless glass balustrade is attached to the concrete slab using resin anchor fixings. These fixings are drilled into the vertical edge face of the slab. The sheet glass forming the balustrade is then bolted on from the external side.
Wnilst this method works well and achieves a secure fixing, it suffers from a number of disadvantages. The primary disadvantage is that a safe working platform (e.g. a scaffold tower) is required on the outside of the building (or in the void adjacent to the edge) so that workers can complete the installation by both dhliing the fixings into the vertical edge and bolting on the sheet glass whilst it is suspended in place.
For some buildings, such as higher rise apartment blocks, the cost of provision of such a safe working platform is very high. Where the platform is not being used by many different trades, or where it is required only to repair damage, the cost becomes excessive in proportion to the amount of work being done.
When a building is first being constructed, a suitable platform is sometimes already present and in use by other trades working on the construction. However] such scaffolds tend to be bufit, for convenience, so that the deck levels of the scaffold tower are level with the flooring of the buDding. This configuration then dashes with. the desired position of the anchor fixings; meaning that the installation, steps of driVing and fixing end up having to be done working off podurn steps from the scaffold deck of the floor below. This can be difficult and time consuming and also has safety risks.
An object of the present invention is to provide a method and device for fixing a glass balustrade to the edge of a floor which overcomes or reduces the above problems.
Summary of the Invention
A first aspect of the present invention provides a fixing device for attaching a glass balustrade to a horizontal structural element of a building or other construction, the fixing device having: first and second arms arranged substantially at right-angles to each other, wherein: he first arm has first engagement means for securing the balustrade tc the outside of the fixing device; and the second arm has second engagement means for securing the fixing device with the balustrade attached to the structural element, wherein the fixing device permits the balustrade to be secured to the fixing device and then attached in a cantilevered fashion to the upper surface of the structural element.
By using a fixing device according to this aspect] the balustrade can be attached to the structure of the building by operatives working from the horizontal structural element itself.
As the balustrade can be attached to the fixing device before the balustrade is positioned in the building, the fixing device and balustrade combination simply needs to he secured to the horizontal surface of the structural element of the bu!lding.
Thus using a fixing device according to this aspect, the difficulties in working from scaffolding (or even the requirement for scaffolding) can be reduced or avoided. Maintenance or replacement of the balustrade can also be quicker and easier.
Preferably the first engagement means include a fastening element retained w!thin the first arm which is arranged to engage with a further fastening element which passes through the balustrade.
This configuration allows for rapid attachment of the fixing device to a balustrade.
Preferably the second arm has adjustment means for adjusting the vertical position or the relative angle of the hxing device from the structural element after the fixing device has been secured to the structural element.
By providing adjustment means, such as adjustable screws or bolts which. bear against the structural element, or against a further plate provided on the structural element, separately from the means securing the fixing device to the structural element, minor variations in the instafled height and/or levefling of the fixing device can be corrected for after the fixing device has been secured to the structural element.
Preferably the fixing device is cast metal, more preferably a cast zinc/aluminium alloy. This gives the fixing device substantial strength and rigidity to support the forces exerted on it by the balustrade.
The device of the present aspect may include any combination of some, all or none of the above described preferred and optional features.
A second aspect of the present invention a balustrade assembly for mounting to a horizontal structural element of a building or other construction, the assembly including: a fixing device according to the above first aspect, including any combination of some, all or none of the preferred and optional features of that device; and a glass balustrade secured to the outside of the fixing device by the second engagement means.
A third aspect of the present invention provides a method of fixing a glass balustrade to a horizontal structural element of a building or other construction, the method including the steps of: attaching a bracket having hrst and second arms arranged substantially at rightS angles to each other to the balustrade by securing the balustrade to the outside of the first arm of the bracket; attaching the second arm of the bracket to the upper surface of the structural element such that the balustrade is supported in a cantilevered fashion.
By using a method according to this aspect, the balustrade can be attached to the structure of the building by operatives working from the horizontal structural element itself. As the balustrade is attached to the fixing device before the balustrade is positioned in the building, the fixing device and balustrade combination smply needs to be secured to the horizontal surface of the structural element of the building.
Thus using a method according to this aspect, the difficufties in working from scaffolding (or even the requirement [or scaffolding) can be reduced or avoided. Maintenance or replacement of the balustrade can also be quicker and easier.
Preferably the first step of attaching indudes fastening first fastening means which are retained within the first arm of the bracket with second fastening means provided on the opposite side of the balustrade.
This configuration aVows for rapid attachment of the fixing device to a balustrade.
PreferaHy the method further includes the step of, prior to said second step of attaching, securing, in the structural element, third fastening means which engage with., fourth fastening means through the second arm of the bracket during the second step of attaching.
Thus the third fastening means, which will typicafly bear the main oads caused by movement of the balustrade and fixing device relative to the structural element, can be secured into the structural element in advance. For example one or more hxing bolts could he set into a concrete structural element before the concrete has been set, thus providing a highly secure fixing means for attaching the fixing device to the structural element.
The method may further include the step of, after the second step of attaching, adjusting the separation of the bracket from the structural element and/or levelhng the bracket using adjustment means provided on the second arm of the bracket.
By adjusting the instafled height and/or levelling of the fixing device, minor variations in the height and/or levelling can be corrected for after the fixing device has been secured to the structural element, thus aHowing "fine tuning" of the position of the fixing device and balustrade.
In some embodiments, once fixed, the lower edge of the balustrade extends below the upper surface of the structural element. This can allow the use of tinted, obscure or screen printed glass in this lower portion of the balustrade to obscure the edge and/or vertical surface of the structural element can be obscured. thus avoiding the need for further covering or treatment of the edge and vertical face.
The method of the present aspect may include any combination of some, all or none of the above described preferred and optional features.
The method is preferably used in conjunction with a fixing device according to the above first aspect or a balustrade assembly of the above second aspect, but need not be.
Brief Description of the DrawinQs
Embodiments of the invention wiU now be described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings in which: Figure 1 shows a side view of a fixing device according to an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 2 shows a plan view of the fixing device of Figure 1; Figure 3 shows a side view of the fixing devEce of Figures 1 and 2 as attached to a concrete slab with a glass balustrade installed.
Figure 4 shows a side view of a fixing device according to a further embodiment of the present invention; Figure 5 shows a plan view of the fixing device of Figure 4; and Figure 6 shows a side view of the fixing device of Figures 4 and 5 as attached to a concrete slab.
Detailed Description
Figure 1 shows a side view of a fixing device 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 shows the same fixing device 2 in plan view and Figure 3 shows the fixing device I in use, attached to a concrete slab 2 which makes up the structural floor of the building and to a balustrade 4.
The fixing device I is a generally L-shaped bracket having a first arm 10 which is arranged to extend, in use, horizontally over the slab 2 and a second arm 11 extending substantially at a right angle from the first arm 10 and, in use, vertically down the edge 21 of the slab 2.
The fixing device I is cast in metal using a high-pressure die casting process. In particular embodiments1 the fixing device may be made from cast aluminium, or from a zinc/aluminium alloy such as ZA8. The casting and the L-shaped profile of the fixing device gives a high level of rigidity to withstand both the load of the balustrade and wind pressures, as well as torsional forces resulting from pressure on the top edge of the balustrade from wind or human contact.
The first arm 10 of the bracket 1 has a central through-hole 12 for engaging with a fixing bolt.
The central through-hole 12 has a wider sectional profile 12a towards the top of the bracket to allow a nut to be screwed onto the fixing bolt and bear against the lower portion 12b of the through-hole, thus securing the bracket 1 in place.
The first arm 10 of the bracket us generally of I-beam prolile, except around the central through-hole 12 which is widened (as shown in Figure 2) and strengthened and the areas around the adjustment through-holes 13 which are also strengthened.
The second arm 11 of the bracket 1 has a plurality of recesses 14 (in this case: three) which.
are arranged to receive and hold MID nyloc nuts (28 in FigureS) against withdrawal and rotation, thus allowing a MID bolt 27 to be screwed into them to attach and secure the balustrade as described below. The nyloc nuts are inserted from the side of the bracket 1, and held in place whilst the bolts 27 are screwed into them through the balustrade and the vertical suriace of the second arm 11.
It will be appreciated from the description below that any number of recesses 14 may be provided depending on the size and weight of the balustrade to be fixed to the bracket I using those recesses. Typically the bracket 1 will have at least 2 such recesses to provide for two fixing points and thereby allow some control of th.e vertical orientation and also resistance to rotation about a single fixing point However, brackets may he provided with more recesses to allow for their use with a range of balustrades of different sizes, either by allowing further multiple fixings to be made to a balustrade, or to provide for the option of use with balustrades having a different configuration of pre-drilled holes for fixing to the brackets Figure 3 shows a further embodiment of the present invention in which a sheet glass balustrade 4 is attached the bracket I described above and the bracket and balustrade are installed onto a concrete slab 2. The balustrade 4 is made from two layers 41 of 10mm thick laminated clear toughened glass panel, but many other configurations, such as a single sheet of 15mm thick toughened glass, can be used. A capping (not shown) can be provided on the top of the balustrade 4 which is bonded to the glass using clear silicone. Similarly a handra!l (not shown) can be provided on the internal side of the balustrade 4, typically approxniately 1100mm above the floor level.
The use of the bracket I allows the balustrade 4 to extend down below the edge of the concrete slab 2. By using tinted, obscure or screen printed glass in this lower porbon of the balustrade, the edge and vertical surface of the concrete slab 2 can be obscured, thus avoiding the need for further covering or treatment of the edge and vertical face.
A method of fixing a glass balustrade to the floor structure of a building according to an embodiment of the invention will now he described with reference to the bracket 1 and balustrade 4 shown in Figure 3.
When the concrete slab 2 making up the floor structure of the building is laid, an MIS fixing bolt 22 is cast vertically into the top of the concrete slab a predetermined distance from the edge of the slab 2 to which the balustrade is to be mounted.
Separately (arid this can have been done well in advance of the laying of the concrete slab 2, or shortly before the installation of the balustrade), the sheet glass of the balustrade 4 is fitted to the bracket by screwing two M1O screws 27 with powder coated disc caps 29 through pre-drihed holes in the sheet glass and into the nyloc nuts 28.
Typically at least two brackets 1 are attached to each panel of glass balustrade 4. Th.e separation between the brackets I can be chosen depending on a number of factors such as the size and weight of the balustrade and the capability of the brackets. In typical situations, there is a 500-650mm separation between th.e brackets.
Once the concrete slab 2 has set, the bracket 1 and balustrade 4 can be attached. The bracket 1 is placed onto a 6mm thick stainless steel spreader plate 3 which is laid on top of the slab 2.
The bracket I is then secured to the slab 2 using the fixing bolt 22 which engages with the central through-hole 12 in the first arm 10 of the bracket I and is secured in place with a nut 24 The nut 24 may bear directly against the lower portion 12b of the through-hole 12 or may bear against a washer 25 which bears against the lower portion 12a of the through-hole 12. Packing may be added (instead of or in addition to the spreader plate 3) to position the bracket 1 (and therefore the balustrade 4) to a set datum height above the slab 2.
Either side of the central bolt 22 two M12 adjusting scre'Ns 23 pass through the respective adjustment through-holes 13 and bear against the spreader plate 3. These adjusting screws 23 and the corresponding nuts 26 can be used to adjust the level of the bracket I (and therefore the vertical orientation of the attached balustrade) by allowing for approximately 10mm of vertical movement of the bracket 1 in each direction.
Once instaUed, a suspended floorS is typicaUy provided above the structural concrete slab.
This suspended floor 5 allows for the installation of services (electricity, water, etc.) as well as covering fixings such as the bracket 1.
A fixing device 1' according to a further embodiment of the present invention s shown in Figures 4 and 5. The fixing device 1' is substantially the same as the fixing device 1 shown in Figures 1-3 and simfiar components are indicated with the same reference numerals but with a prime attached. However, the fixing device 1' is arranged to be fixed to the concrete slab 2 in the opposite configuration such that the second arm 11' extends substantially vertically upwards away from the slab 2', as shown in Figure 6. The mountng of the fixing device in this orientation allows the balustrade 4' to be mounted on top of the slab 2', and either aligned with or set back from the edge of the slab 2'.
As shown in Figure 4, this bracket 1' and balustrade can he mounted in situations where the concrete slab 2' abuts an adjacent structural element 6 of the building. In these circumstances, the fixings 27', 28' of the balustrade 4' to the bracket 1' may not be visible and so, instead of caps 29, the balustrade 4' may be secured to the bracket 1' by a clamp plate 41 which spans the pre-drilled holes in the balustrade.
The fixing device 1' o this embodiment is attached to the concrete slab 2' in a slightly different manner. The bolt 22' extends all the way through the first arm 10' of the lixing device 1' and the fixing device is secured by a washer and nut 24' which bear against the top of the first arm 10'.
Wriile the invention has been described in conjunction with the exemplary embodiments described above, many equivalent modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art when given this disclosure. Accordingly, the exemplary embodiments of the invention set forth above are considered to be illustrative and not limiting. Various changes to the described embodiments may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
