Solid structure

Abstract

A prefabricated solid structure provided with a frame including struts arranged in a rectangular shape as viewed on a plane, side beams and upper side beams horizontally extending to couple the struts together, and inner side beams coupling the side beams. The frame is constituted by detachably fastening the struts, side beams and upper side beams, and side beams and inner side beams together all by using bolts and internally threaded members.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention is concerned with a solid structure that can be used as an office, a working place, a temporary house, a lodging house, a store, a warehouse, a factory, or as a structure of which the upper part can be used as internal space (e.g., office, domicile, working place) and the lower part can be used as external space such as garage, and for many other purposes. [0003] 2. Description of the Related Art [0004] There has heretofore been proposed a solid structure (for example, a solid parking lot) by arranging assembly elements for corners, assembly elements for sides and assembly elements for centers, which are the poles, at required positions, coupling beams across the upper ends of these assembly elements, and coupling braces among the lower ends thereof (see Japanese Examined Patent Publication (Kokoku) No. 06-015786 and U.S. Pat. No. 4,800,694). This solid structure has excellent characteristics i...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0006] It is an object of the present invention to provide a novel solid structure which makes it possible to easily and quickly carry out the assembling operation on the site of assembly, to shorten the period for assembling, and to decrease the total cost.

[0007] Another object of the present invention is to provide a novel solid structure which makes it possible to easily and quickly carry out the disassembling operation on the site of assembly, and to shorten the period for disassembling and removal.

[0008] A further object of the present invention is to provide a novel solid structure of which the individual constituent elements and the whole constitution are relatively light in weight and are simple yet maintaining a sufficiently large strength.

[0009] A still further object of the present invention is to provide a novel solid structure of which the entire constituent elements can be assembled by using bolts and internally threaded members.

[0010] A yet further object of the present invention is to provide a novel solid structure which requires a reduced space for storage and a decreased cost for storage.

[0011] A further object of the present invention is to provide a novel solid structure which can be easily transported to the site of assembly decreasing the cost of transportation.

Problems solved by technology

In the above solid structure, however, the assembly elements for corners, assembly elements for sides and assembly elements for centers are still relatively heavy, requiring relatively laborious assembling operation.

Therefore, the above solid structure has been improved over its preceding structures in regard to the assembling period and total cost, which, however, is not still satisfactory enough.

Besides, in addition to relatively heavy assembly elements, the structures of the individual elements are not simple arousing problems such as large space is required for storage, cost of storage becomes high, transportation to the site of assembly involves difficulty and increased cost.
