WALL CONSTRUCTION.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented. Dec. 6, 1921.
Application filed July 30, 1920. Serial No. 400,028.
To all whom it may concern):
Be it known that I, ISRAEL F. RAUDA- BAUGH, a citizen of the United States, residing at-Celina, in the county of Mercer and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in all Constructions, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to wall construction and has for an object the use of a skeleton wall made from small blocks of lumber which are usually considered waste.
A further object of the invention resides in positioning these blocks in a manner that will provide series of apertures in each tier of the skeleton wall to receive the plastic materials used on both sides of the wall to bond the latter as a unit and permit its uniform expansion and contraction thereby eliminating cracking and disintegration.
The above and other objects of my invention will be in part described and in part understood from the following description of the present embodiment of my invention as illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein:
Figure 1, is a fragmentary perspective view of a building embodying my invention.
Fig. 2, is a detail fragmentary side elevational view of a wall constructed in accordance with my invention, and
Fig. 3, is a vertical sectional view taken on the line 3-3 of Fig. 2, and looking in the direction of he arrow.
In using a wall constructed in accordance with my invention, best results will be obtained by first laying a concrete or other solid foundation 4, the top of which is in the sameplane with the suriace of the earth.
The wall per 86 consists or" a plurality of blocks 5 arranged in end to end spaced re lation. The blocks are placed in superimposed relation to provide tiers, the blocks being secured by nails *6 or other suitable securing means. t will be observed that the blocks in one tier are arranged over the terminals of the adjacent blocks in the subjacent tier. Consequently is securing the blocks with the nails 6, the latter are preferably driven at an inclination adjacent the terminals thereof so that in one instance, as indicated by the block X in Fig. 2, the nails will be driven into the two subjacent blocks Y. Correspondingly the nails are driven through the bloc *s Y adjacent their proximate terminals to engage the next lower block Z. This staggered arrangement of blocks provides periodical apertures 7 in each tier.
A plastic material, as indicated at 8, is engaged with the outside of the skeleton wall provided by the arrangement of blocks above described and may constitute stucco or any other suitable material. Gn the inside, as indicated at 9, plaster or the like may be used. These materials will merge in the apertures 7 thereby providing a bond between the inner and outer walls, reducing possibility of their cracking or disintegrat ing to a minimum.
I desire to be understood thatthe blocks comprising the skeleton wall used in my invention are of such a size that they may be conveniently made up from waste wood, al though if desired they can be made. from straw, wood fiber, or any other suitable materials. The specific arrangement of the blocks is an important embodiment of the invention because of the provision of a uniformly apertured wall which receives the plastic composition.
What- I claim is:
A wall including a skeleton comprising relatively small locks arranged in horizon tal rows with the blocks of each row spaced a substantial distance apart, the blocks of one horizontal row contacting with the blocks of adjacent horizontal rows and extending across the spaces between the blocks oi adjacent horizontal rows.
In testimony whereof I aiiiX my signature in presence or two witnesses.
ISRAEL F. RAUDABAUGH.
