Definitions

  • My present invention relates to an improved structural assembly for the erection of polygonal structural units having, for example, vertices defining between them angles of, say, 60 as more generally described in my copending application mentioned above.
  • the triangular plates can be grouped into square, rectangular or hexagonal subunits which, in turn, can be disposed contiguously to expand the structure in rectangular, hexagonal or modified configuration.
  • triangular slabs whose Vertices include angles which are aliquot parts of 180, such as isosceles right triangles or equilateral triangles.
  • the slabs are rigidly joined to associate upright members such as walls, columns or other supports with the aid of frames or brackets matingly engaging suitably profiled peripheral portions of the polygonal plates.
  • Special connectors are secured to the slabs for holding their plates together, e.g.
  • floor and roof structures can be formed of polygonal outline with wall means rigid with the floor and/or roof structure extending along edges of the polygonal slabs.
  • Another object of this invention is to provide a column or post structure for prefabricated units which will facilitate the building-block-type erection of a multi-unit structure with ease and at low cost.
  • a composite column of at least partially closed cross-section made up of a plurality of angularly adjoining contiguous members extending the :full length of the column and having connecting formations including angles of substantially 60 with one another, bolts, rive-ts, or other fastening means being provided to secure the members rigidly together.
  • At least some of the angularly adjoining members making up each column are provided, in accordance with the present invention, with means-which may include the aforementioned connecting formationsfor .afiixing horizontal elements to the columns at upper and lower portions thereof so as to constitute therewith frames for panels or wall means, or supports for floor or ceiling slab structures, as set forth in my copending application mentioned above, with the walls including cor-responding angles with one another.
  • the horizontal traverses or beams may be constituted by metal profile bars or the slab arrangements of copending application Ser. No. 309,777 and, in the latter case, a column in accordance with the present invention will be provided at each of the vertices of a triangular slab structure.
  • the columns are advantageously disposed at the vertices of an equilateral triangle with the profiles extending along the sides thereof. It has been found that the 60 included angle between the connecting formations of each column and the traverses spanning the columns While including corrsponding angles between them form a triangular unit which can be nested with other units or otherwise combined therewith to produce a grid-like arrangement characterized by great static strength. In a 60 grid in accordance with the present invention it has been found possible to span distances of up to 9 meters in two of the three dimensions of the grid While the third dimension is substantially unlimited.
  • the horizontal traverses are profiles which lie in the plane of slab-type floor and ceiling arrangements with the profiles completely embedded in the horizontal slabs.
  • the profiles may be cast around with concrete or may serve as connecting members between triangular preformed slabs which, along their junction, files; the connecting formations at the upper and lower ends of the column likewise are concealed in the floor or roof structures and, thus are not visible from within the structural unit.
  • each or some of the vertical columns are of completely closed cross-section and are formed from six iangularly adjoining and gene-rally similar profiled members of channel construction whereby the arms of the channel members can be connected together with the members lying along sides of a hexagon.
  • the triangular plates can be equilateral triangles disposed about a column of this nature in hexagonal configuration so that corresponding vertices of the triangular'plates bear centrally upon respective faces or channel members of the vertical column.
  • a hearing member e.g. of hexagonal cross section
  • the column itself may,
  • the center-bearing member may correspond in configuration to the column and indeed may be a column section whose con necting formations are secured to the traverse members and the triangular slab to tie them together in a star configuration at the center of the subgroup. In this manner, selective columns may be omitted in assembling the structure so that the floor and ceiling slabs can span relatively large distances without intervening uprights.
  • the horizontal traverses and the profile members secured together to constitute the columns preferably are formed from aluminum or coated sheet or band steel (e.g.
  • the arms of the channel-shaped column members may diverge from one another with an apex angle of substantially 60 and a half-angle of 30 while being connected together in contiguous manner such that the joined-together arms form connecting formations or flanges extending outwardly from the tubular core of the column.
  • the arms of the channel members converge away from their bight portions with included angles of 60 and the channel members are connected along their adjoining arms to form inwardly directed flanges enclosed by the column-shell.
  • these inwardly directed flanges can constitute the connecting members for the horizontal traverses even though they are concealed by the: shell of the column formed by the closed array of the bights or webs of the channels.
  • the bight portions I or webs may be cut away to receive the horizontal traverses at the upper and lower ends of the columns or at an intermediate location therealong so as to form windows through which the horizontal traverses can be flanged orlapped against the fianges' of the column.
  • the column should include at least two members whose connecting formations include an angle of 60 between them but may have one or more channel members or profiles whose connecting formations define complementary angles to a formation of another profiled column member whereby the two members can be joined together at right angles to support walls joining one another at 90.
  • a right-angle adapter can be formed by one type of profile member and have a flange or arm
  • the web of the channel members making up a hexagonal-section column can have a width of about 10 cm. whereby the column can be used to support walls andpanel systems of such thickness that conventional '4 7 a door structures, windowsfshelves and cupboards can be maintained therein. 7
  • This arrangement permits the rapid assembly from pre fabricated elements which: can be modified on the construction site of structures for industrial and dwelling purposes with respect to both the outer shell and the interior 'wall arrangements.
  • pre fabricated elements which: can be modified on the construction site of structures for industrial and dwelling purposes with respect to both the outer shell and the interior 'wall arrangements.
  • columns and horizontal traverses form the basic elements while the construction of the columns enables adaptation of the system to particular needs. All of the parts are standardized and can be interfitted as will be apparent hereinafter to enable rapid assembly of the system.

  • the column produced .by joining the arms 3 of the profiles Ba at their connecting formations 4, thus con 1 stitutes a hexagonal shell (defined by the adjoining webs 2 and illustrated at S), this tubular shellconstituting a duct or the like for utility purposes as illustrated in my' copending application identified earlier.
  • a plurality of angularly equispaced flanges F defined by joining the juxtaposed arms 3 running the full length of the column, extend radially to the corners of a hexagon and serve to support horizontal traverses (e.g. profiled beams or triangular concrete slabs) as will be apparent hereinafter.
  • the profile members Bi making up the column have webs 7 which define a closed unit and lie. along sides of a hexagon.
  • the arms 6 of the channel-shaped profile members include with one another angles a of 60 and have respective half-angles B of 30".
  • the arms converge toward the center of the hexagon and are juxtaposed with the arms of adjoining profile members Bi while having connecting formations in the form of registering bores 8 through which rivets 8a or bolt assemblies 817 can be inserted.
  • the column 5 thus is of hexagonal section with a substantially larger enclosed area than that of FIG. 1 and can also serve as a duct for utility purposes.
  • the six profile members Bi extending the full length of the column 5 are generally of U section with the arms or shanks of the U turned inwardly toward one another so that the arms and web of each member Bi lie along three sides of a trapezoid. It will be apparent that the webs 7 form a shell S which completely encloses and conceals the flanges F formed by connecting the juxtaposed arms 6 of adjoining members Bi.
  • the column 7 can be used in the interior of a structure and has no unsightly formations to interfere with the esthetic effect.
  • FIG. 3 there is shown a modified column 9 whose six profile members Bw have juxtaposed arms 10 extending the full length of the column.
  • the juxtaposed arms 10 have aligned connecting bores 13 by means of which the members Bw may be joined together via rivets or bolt arrangements as previously described and which form flanges F to which the horizontal traverses and cross members may be connected.
  • the arms 10 of each of the profile members Bw include angles a of, say, 60 with inwardly extending arms 12.
  • the arms 12 of adjoining profile members Bw are juxtaposed with one another and are formed with bores 13' through which bolt and rivet assemblies may be inserted.
