Definitions

  • This invention relates to construction systems and more particularly for systems for attachment of curtain wall perimeters to multi-level residential building developments including arrangements for attachment of brick cladding to the curtain wall.
  • typical construction methods provide a concrete or a steel structure which supports the floors that are stacked to form the multi level or high rise building.
  • the perimeter portion of the building is enclosed by a curtain wall which attaches to the structure to form a "weather screen".
  • the construction methods heretofore employed provide for a framing arrangement, floor to floor supported by the structure, with a shelf angle attached to the structure at each floor to support the brick cladding extending around the perimeter of the building.
  • the framing provided in residential high rise buildings includes light- gauge-metal (LGM) studs which extend between the floor and the ceiling of each level of the structure.
  • LGM light- gauge-metal
  • the stud framing forms a cavity between the interior and exterior surfaces defined by the framing to receive insulation and accommodate any electrical wiring that is provided in the perimeter of the building.
  • an interior finish such as drywall is applied and on the exterior surface of the framing, insulation, a wind barrier and weatherproof material such as brick is applied.
  • Window assemblies are subsequently incorporated into the wall to provide a source of natural light and ventilation into the residential units of the building.
  • Brick ties are installed in two parts, the inner portion of which, is screwed into the web of the framing studs and protrudes through the subsequently applied exterior insulation and wind barrier.
  • the exterior portion of the wall is finished by applying a weather resistant brick surface that is supported by a shelf angle attached directly to the structure at each floor and retained in its vertical plane by attachment of the second portion of the brick ties.
  • the brick ties extending from the framing can, and frequently do, cause head and eye injury to personnel working on the scaffolding to prepare for, and lay the brick.
  • the conventional system of building cladding results in a hazard to brick layers, insulators and others working on the scaffolds.
  • the conventional cladding process also causes thermal bridging between the framing and the brick. The perforation of the insulation and wind barrier by the brick ties, even with subsequent caulking, will compromise the value of both energy conservation products.
  • the floors and supporting columns of the structure are first constructed. Where concrete construction is used, the floors are poured sequentially, one after the other, until all of the floors of the structure are constructed. While the floors are being poured, the curtain wall framing can proceed on lower floors that have cured sufficiently through passage of time. Generally, however, the exterior surface of the curtain wall is not applied until all of the floors of the building have been completed as a safety measure to protect workers on the exterior of the building while forming, steel setting and concrete pouring is in process overhead.
  • the construction systems heretofore employed have a number of shortcomings. For example with conventional construction techniques, commencement of building cladding is not started until all of the floors of the superstructure have been completed.
  • the present invention provides a construction system for use with multi-unit residential buildings that extend over several floors to provide the perimeter enclosure portion, or curtain wall, of the building.
  • perimeter wall sections are constructed for attachment to the structure of the building.
  • the perimeter walls sections are provided in wall panel assemblies that inter-fit to form the building perimeter wall.
  • the wall panel assemblies are supported on the building by attachment to shelf angles that extend around the perimeter of each building floor slab.
  • the shelf angles are attached to anchors provided in the edge portion of the building floor slabs.
  • the preferred manner of attachment of the shelf angles to the anchors includes adjustment means to provide precise alignment of the shelf angles to horizontal and true straight lines to accommodate construction tolerances.
  • the upper portion of each wall panel assembly is connected or attached to an upper shelf angle using a pin that extends between the shelf angle and the wall panel that is installed after the wall panel is aligned.
  • the lower portion of the wall panel rests on the shelf angle of the lower floor, which is also attached to the upper portion of the wall panel of the lower floor.
  • a preferred manner of installing the curtain wall sections is to hoist a curtain wall section and it's associated upper shelf angle, to which the curtain wall section is preliminarily attached, up to the location of the building where it will be installed. Preliminary attachment of the curtain wall section to the upper shelf angle allows limited relative movement between the curtain wall section and the upper shelf angle.
  • the curtain wall section When the curtain wall section is initially positioned on the building, its lower portion will rest on the shelf angle of the floor below. The upper shelf angle is then attached to anchors provided on the perimeter of the building. Once the upper shelf angle is installed, the lower portion of the just positioned wall panel section will be installed on or attached to the lower shelf angle that it is resting on.
  • the preferred manner of installation of the lower portion of the just positioned wall panel is effected by providing oversized holes in the bottom surface or track that are positioned over the bolts holding the lower wall panel section in place.
  • the just positioned wall panel section is aligned and mated with its adjacent wall panel section and a horseshoe washer is placed over the oversized holes in the lower track and those bolts are tightened to install and secure the lower portion of the just positioned wall panel section.
  • the just positioned wall panel section is plumbed and its upper portion is permanently installed or secured to the upper shelf angle.
  • Permanent installation to the upper shelf angle is accomplished by providing threaded holes in the upper shelf angle through which threaded pins that extend to engage mating holes in the upper track.

Consequently, providing longitudinally extending apertures in the shelf angle will permit alignment of the attachment bolts to each corresponding aperture and overall alignment of each curtain wall section to an adjacent section, including alignment at the exterior corners of the building. As will be understood, the number of slot and bolt assemblies 32, 30 that are provided to attach a curtain wall section 20 to the slab will vary depending on the weight and width of the curtain wall section. Once shelf angle 18 is properly aligned and leveled, the nuts 34 are tightened to fix the shelf angle to the slab.
  • the anchor assemblies 16 may not all extend in an exactly straight line.

Abstract

L'invention concerne une construction de panneau mural et un système d'attache des parties d'un mur rideau à une structure de construction. Les parties du mur rideau s'emboîtent les unes dans les autres pour former une enceinte étanche résistant aux intempéries d'un bâtiment. Les panneaux du mur rideau se fixent aux bord périmétriques des parties du plancher du bâtiment, au moyen de cornières de support. Des moyens de réglage reliant les panneaux du mur rideau aux cornières de support facilitent l'alignement et le positionnement des parties du mur rideau. Une configuration de panneau de mur rideau préférée consiste en une liaison mâle-femelle des parties du mur rideau. Un système de placage de briques constituant une structure de support et d'attache permettant la pose d'un placage en briques autour du mur rideau est également décrit. Ce système utilise un rail de support conçu pour supporter un rang de briques et un canal d'agrafes à brique sur l'extérieur du bâtiment sur lequel des agrafes à brique séparées sont montées lors de la pose des briques.
