Definitions

  • a wall of a cellar is formed from sheet aluminum sections with interlocking vertical edge folds resting against a framework of columns and joists, rising from a concrete foundation, under pressure of soil material piled up outside the wall.
  • This invention relates to a cellar-wall construction which permits erection without the use of building equipment, except for earth-moving work, in a time-saving manner.
  • the cellar-wall construction according to the invention has an outer wall consisting of aluminum wall elements with vertical rib-like connecting and reinforcing folds.
  • FIG. 1 is a vertical cross-section through a cellar wall according to my invention along a junction between two outside wall elements;
  • FIG. 2 is a horizontal section taken on the line II--II of FIG. 1 on a smaller scale;
  • FIG. 3 is a part-sectional view taken on the line III- III of FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 4 is a horizontal section taken on the line IV-IV of FIG. 1 on a smaller scale.
  • FIG. 5 shows the profile of the aluminum wall elements on a larger scale.
  • the cellar-wall construction according to my invention shown has aluminum wall elements or sections 1 which are for instance 2.5 meters high and 1 meter wide. They are made of aluminum sheet 3 to 4 mm. thick and have at their vertical longitudinal edges interlocking folds 2 and 3 which project outwardly and are of a Z-shaped cross-section. A rib-like median fold 4 of substantially U-shaped or dovetail cross-section is located between successive joints 2, 3 and also projects outwardly. Edge folds 2 have a somewhat larger span than the mating formations 3 and grip the latter with reentrant flanges 2. The overlapping of edge folds 3 by edge folds 2, 2' holds the wall elements together in a horizontal direction parallel to the plane of the Wall. As is apparent from FIG. 5, folds 3 can easily be slid into folds 2, 2'.
  • the wall elements are supported at their bottom ends on a ledge 5' of a rabbet (FIGS. 1 and 4) of the foundation platform 6.
  • Supporting columns 7, placed at intervals of about 5 meters, are concreted into foundation 6 close to rabbet, flush with the vertical shoulder 5 thereof, and are interconnected at a height of about 2.5 meters by longitudinal wall joists *8.
  • the latter rest on brackets 9 welded to columns 7 and are bolted thereto.
  • the top ends of wall elements 1 lie against the longitudinal wall joists 8.
  • the aluminum wall thus assembled is held in place against an upright framework, composed of abutments 5, 6, 7, 8, by soil material 14 heaped against its outside surface, such as gravel.
  • the outer surfaces of wall elements 1 are provided with a bitumen coating and, at least on the outside, with a polyvinyl-chloride coating about 2. mm. thick, whereby their corrosion resistance is 3,557,502 Patented Jan. 26, 1971 considerably increased; part of this composite protective coating has been diagrammatically illustrated at 15 in FIG. 5.
  • Transverse wall joists 10 are laid on the longitudinal wall joists 8 at intervals of about 1 meter in such a way that a transverse joist 10 comes to lie over each joint 2, 3 between two wall elements 1. These transverse joists 10 serve as a support for the cellar ceiling 11, for a dead fioor 12 and for the ground-level flooring 13 (FIG. 3).
  • the cross-section of transverse joists 10 has three supporting shoulders 11', 12' and 13' for this purpose; it also forms a horizontal duct 16 open toward the upper end of a vertical channel 17 defined by an aligned junction 2, 3.
  • Columns and joists 7, 8, 10 may also be of standardized length, corresponding to a certain grid, for assembly with wall elements 1, and thus matched to the wall elements.
  • a wall structure for a cellar of a building comprising a foundation, a framework rising from said foundation, and a plurality of coplanar sheet-metal wall sections with interlocking pairs of outwardly directed vertical edge formations resting on said foundation while bearing from without upon said framework under pressure of soil material piled up along their outer surfaces, said edge formations having substantially the shape of Z-profiles with one of the Zs of a pair having an outer flange terminating in a lip bent back toward its own web and bearing upon the web of the other Z, said webs being closely spaced in the vicinity of said framework and diverging outwardly toward said flange.
  • said framework further includes floor-supporting transverse joists resting on said longitudinal joists in line with respective junctions between adjoining sections formed by said interlocking formations.
  • each of said sections is provided with a single median fold forming a vertical rib separating said flat surface portions thereof.
