AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The invention is a new construction system made from structural wooden elements that are easy to assemble, quick to set up, and can be reused or disassembled. The system consists of a central block and two lateral elements that are attached to the central block. The central block has a groove and a tongue that fit perfectly when placed vertically, allowing for easy assembly of other structural elements. The system is cost-effective, lightweight, and can be easily transported and maintained. It can be used for various types of structures, such as L-shaped or T-shaped structures, and can be made from different types of wood. The central block is vertically perforated to allow for the passage of connection and fixation elements of the structural elements. The invention offers a new and innovative solution for construction, providing efficiency and flexibility in construction.

Problems solved by technology

Traditionally, the construction of wooden buildings, especially the construction of second homes or vacation villages in the form of cottages, requires the use of costly species, in which the wooden elements are timbered from large tree trunks.
The use of products coming from smaller and / or curved trunks and low-grade wood species, especially those having a tendency to warp, is very limited; they are used essentially as heating wood or as raw material for paper pulp and for the production of wooden panels.

Abstract

A system of structural wood elements has blocks that have grooves on bases and tongues on tops for superimposing the blocks. A lateral element fixed to one side of the blocks is thinner and longer than the blocks. Opposite ends of the lateral element are fixed to the topmost top and bottommost base of the blocks

Description

AREA OF APPLICATION OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention involves the construction field, more specifically it involves structural wood elements and a corresponding construction system, enabling the construction of buildings, especially walls, partitions, floors, ceilings, etc. DESCRIPTION OF THE PRIOR ART [0002] Traditionally, the construction of wooden buildings, especially the construction of second homes or vacation villages in the form of cottages, requires the use of costly species, in which the wooden elements are timbered from large tree trunks. The produce of the forests has been considerably diminished and there is a genuine need for better utilization of forest resources, a genuine need to exploit raw material which up to now has been scarcely utilized (little added value). The use of products coming from smaller and / or curved trunks and low-grade wood species, especially those having a tendency to warp, is very limited; they are used essentially as heating wood ...
