Description
A HYBRID SUPPORT STRUCTURE
The present invention relates to a hybrid support structure and in particular to a hybrid lintel.
Support structures are used in all forms of constructions from buildings to vehicles such as ships and airplanes. A common form of support structure used above a door or window opening in a wall is a lintel. The support structure is required to take the weight of the material above the aperture to provide structural support to the wall to avoid this material collapsing into the aperture. Traditionally, lintels have been manufactured from the likes of reinforced concrete and steel. Lintels have been provided in a multitude of configurations from traditional unitary components to multiple components coupled together with insulation there between. Additionally, where at least a portion of the lintel is exposed to the elements steel lintels are galvanized to avoid rusting of the exposed portion of the lintel maintaining the structural integrity of the lintel.
Unitary reinforced concrete lintels are heavy often requiring specialist lifting equipment on site when they exceed a certain weight. Steel lintels are becoming increasingly expensive because of the recent industrial revolutions in rapidly developing regions such as China, Brazil and India. Furthermore, the requirement to galvanize steel to prevent corrosion by inclement weather conditions adds significantly to the manufacturing complexity and overall production cost.
It is an object of the present invention to obviate or mitigate the problems associated with prior art support structures such as lintels outlined above.
Accordingly, the present invention provides an elongate hybrid lintel comprising a first outer elongate member mountable on the outer leaf of a cavity wall so that at least a portion of the elongate outer member is in contact with the atmosphere and a second inner elongate member mountable on the inner leaf of the cavity wall and being mechanically coupled to the first outer elongate member so that the second inner elongate member is protectable from the atmosphere in use, the outer elongate member is a composite member having a polymeric matrix reinforced with fibres and the inner elongate member is a metal or metal alloy reinforcing member attached thereto, the reinforcing member is mechanically coupled to an external portion of the elongate composite member, this coupling reducing the web buckling effect of both members, the first outer elongate member having a low thermal conductivity value compared to the thermal conductivity value of the inner elongate member to act as a thermal barrier to the ingress of cold, the elongate hybrid lintel acts as a barrier to a major pathway for thermal conductivity between the outside atmosphere and the inside of the cavity wall incorporating the elongate hybrid lintel and the inner elongate reinforcing member provides additional structural support to the elongate composite member and provides the hybrid lintel with the required resistance to web buckling.
Advantageously, the elongate hybrid support structure acts as a barrier to a major pathway for thermal conductivity between the outside atmosphere and the inside of a structure incorporating the elongate hybrid support structure.
Ideally, the second inner elongate member is mechanically coupled to the first outer elongate member in a back to back configuration.
Preferably, the elongate outer member has an open profile cross section.
Ideally, the elongate outer member comprises a plurality of integral planar elements. Preferably, the elongate outer member is extruded, pultruded, moulded or folded. Preferably, the elongate inner member comprises an open profile cross section.
Preferably, the elongate inner member comprises a plurality of integral planar elements.
Ideally, the thermal conductivity of the outer elongate member is less than 1 W/mK. Preferably, the thermal conductivity of the outer elongate member is less than 0.5 W/mK.
Ideally, the inner elongate member is produced from steel. Advantageously, steel provides additional structural support to the elongate outer member.
Ideally, the inner elongate member is provided by an elongate L-shaped plate mechanically coupled to an external portion of the elongate outer member. Advantageously, this coupling reduces web buckling effect of both members.
Ideally, the elongate inner steel member and the outer composite elongate member are mechanically coupled together in a back to back arrangement. Advantageously, the elongate composite outer member is exposable to the elements in use whereas the elongate inner steel member is protected from the elements. In this configuration, it is not necessary to galvanise an elongate member manufactured from steel reducing the overall manufacturing complexity and cost.
It is known in the prior art to use steel lintels separately and their major technical drawbacks are well documented namely corrosion and cold bridging as steel has a high thermal conductivity value. The major technical advantages of steel lintels is their strength under loading and their resistance to web bucking in elongate support structures. GRP lintels are also known in the prior art and the disadvantages associated with GRP lintels are the associated costs of manufacture and their perceived lack of strength under loading and non resistance to web buckling. The present hybrid lintel comprises an inner leaf of steel being mechanically coupled to an outer composite elongate member such as reinforced plastic. The inner leaf of steel is protected from the environment in use to avoid the step of galvanizing the lintel reducing the cost of the manufacturing process whilst providing the hybrid lintel with good loading strength and the required resistance to web buckling. The outer composite elongate member provides the resistance to corrosion and also provides a thermal barrier to the ingress of cold. In this way, the hybrid lintel takes the advantages of both types of material and removes their weakest features by the configuration of the two elongate members in a back to back arrangement.
Ideally, the elongate composite member is provided by fiber-reinforced polymers, FRPs, carbon-fiber reinforced plastic CFRP or glass-reinforced plastic GRP. Preferably, the matrix is provided by a thermoplastic composite.
Ideally, the thermoplastic composite is a short fiber thermoplastics, a long fiber thermoplastics or a long fiber-reinforced thermoplastics.
