Description

[0001] The invention relates to a quick-assembly hall comprising two opposing side walls, each having at least one support device, and at least one roof beam arranged between the opposing support devices, as well as a walkable floor structure.

[0002] Rapidly assembled halls, a defining feature of the industry, are used, for example, as temporary buildings, storage tents, or event halls. They typically consist of modular aluminum or steel structures that are prefabricated, transported, and assembled quickly on-site. These halls are characterized by their relatively lightweight construction, large spans, and rapid assembly times.

[0003] For example, a rapid assembly hall, characterized in particular by its large dimensions, is known from DE 10 2019 133 189 A1. Especially in such rapid assembly halls with domed or arched roof trusses, horizontal force components occur in addition to vertical loads, which must be absorbed by the support structures. Wind loads also act on the entire rapid assembly hall.

[0004] In these types of rapid-assembly halls, the overall structure is typically secured against shifting or lifting by ballast elements in the form of concrete blocks arranged laterally. These ballast elements are positioned next to and outside the actual hall area and are complexly connected to the support structures of the rapid-assembly hall.

[0005] One disadvantage of existing solutions is that the laterally positioned ballast elements require additional installation space and reduce the available usable area for the prefabricated hall. Furthermore, the precise positioning and alignment of the ballast elements is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and requires a level, load-bearing surface. In confined spaces or on uneven ground, assembly can therefore be difficult or insufficiently stable. Additionally, the laterally positioned concrete blocks are visually disruptive and negatively impact the aesthetic appearance of the prefabricated hall.

[0006] The invention is therefore based on the objective of providing a quick-assembly hall that is easier to assemble compared to the prior art and at the same time has improved stability.

[0007] The problem underlying the invention is solved by the combination of features of claim 1. Advantageous further developments are set out in the dependent claims.

[0008] To solve the problem, a rapid assembly hall is proposed, comprising two opposing side walls, each having at least one support structure, and at least one roof truss arranged between the opposing support structures, as well as a walkable floor structure. According to the invention, a ballast device is arranged below the floor structure, which is operatively connected to at least one of the support structures.

[0009] Thanks to the solution according to the invention, a rapid-assembly hall is provided that can be erected with reduced assembly effort and without requiring additional lateral space for adjacent ballast elements. By arranging the ballast system below the floor structure, the entire rapid-assembly hall is designed to be compact and space-saving, thus allowing full utilization of the available open space. Simultaneously, the rapid-assembly hall is stabilized by the ballast system located below, ensuring that the vertical and horizontal forces acting on the support structures are reliably absorbed and transferred into the ground. This results in improved stability of the rapid-assembly hall, even under wind loads. Furthermore, the visually disruptive external ballast is eliminated, significantly improving the appearance of the rapid-assembly hall.Overall, the solution according to the invention thus enables a more compact, stable and aesthetically pleasing design while simultaneously simplifying assembly.

[0010] According to the invention, the ballast system is arranged below the floor structure. This means that, in its assembled state, the ballast system is located between the floor structure of the prefabricated hall and the ground on which the prefabricated hall is erected. The ground can be, for example, natural soil or a prepared foundation. The ballast system is thus located at or directly above the ground surface and preferably forms the lowest structural level of the prefabricated hall. Above the ballast system is the floor structure, which, in its assembled state, forms the walkable floor of the prefabricated hall.

[0011] The walkable floor structure within the meaning of the invention is understood to be that device which, in its assembled state, forms a walkable surface, preferably a walkable level. It preferably serves to support persons and equipment within the rapid assembly hall and to transfer the applied loads preferably to underlying support structures or the ballast system. In other words, the walkable floor structure forms the floor of the rapid assembly hall. The specific design of the floor structure is not limited to a particular material or a specific layer sequence; it can, for example, consist of metal, wood or composite panels, grid elements, or modular panels. The essential point is that the floor structure provides a walkable surface within the rapid assembly hall.

[0012] The quick-assembly hall has at least two opposing side walls. These side walls can be completely open or include cladding elements that provide lateral weather protection. The cladding elements can be flat or sheet-like, or they can have a torsionally rigid structure, such as panels. The design of the side walls can vary depending on the intended use, the span, or the structural requirements.

[0013] Each side wall has at least one support structure designed to transfer vertical and / or horizontal forces. These support structures can be, for example, vertically arranged load-bearing elements, columns, struts, or frame elements that absorb the loads of the roof truss and transfer them directly or indirectly to the ballast system. A support structure can be formed from a single component or from several interconnected profile sections. Furthermore, the support structures can be connected to the roof truss via hinged or rigid connections to allow for different structural configurations.

[0014] The at least one roof truss is arranged between the opposing support structures of the prefabricated hall. Preferably, the roof truss connects the opposing support structures, so that in the assembled state, it forms the upper connection between the opposing support structures of the side walls and preferably extends from a support structure of one side wall to the opposite support structure of the other side wall. The roof truss can have a straight, curved, or domed shape and can be composed of one or more individual elements that are connected to each other. An embodiment is also conceivable and possible in which the roof truss forms a ridge that extends above the support structures, preferably parallel to one of the side walls, and divides the roof surfaces of the prefabricated hall into two inclined sections.

[0015] The roof truss can be designed to absorb vertical and horizontal loads and support both the roof covering and, if applicable, additional fixtures, lighting, or ventilation systems. The connection between the roof truss and the support structures can be hinged or rigid to accommodate different load-bearing behaviors and installation situations.

[0016] The phrase "arranged between the opposing support structures" means that the roof truss is geometrically and / or functionally related to the support structures, or related to the flow of forces. In terms of geometric arrangement, this means that the roof truss—viewed horizontally—extends in the area between the outer ends of the support structures. The roof truss may rise diagonally or in an arc from one support structure and then descend again towards the opposite support structure, thus connecting the two. The term "between" also includes embodiments in which the roof truss forms a ridge extending above the support structures.In this case too, the roof truss is arranged between the support structures with respect to the horizontal orientation of the quick-assembly hall, as it extends over the hall cross-section limited by these.

[0017] In a functional sense, the term "between" also describes how the roof truss couples the two support structures in a load-bearing manner by absorbing the acting vertical and horizontal forces and transferring them between or introducing them into the structure.

[0018] In an advantageous further development, the ballast system can be arranged at least at the edge of the prefabricated assembly hall. The edge position is defined as a location in or below those sections of the prefabricated assembly hall where the side walls or the support structure are located. The ballast system can thus be arranged in the immediate vicinity of the support structure, enabling direct force transmission between the support structure and the ballast system. Such an edge arrangement allows the ballast system to absorb or counteract the vertical and horizontal loads transmitted by the side walls over a short force path. This improves the stability of the overall structure, particularly under wind or shear loads.

[0019] In a further advantageous embodiment, the ballast device can have a frame in which at least one ballast body is received. The ballast device can comprise one or more frames, which are preferably connected to one another, in particular screwed together.

[0020] The frame can be designed, for example, as a support structure, mounting frame, or housing structure and serves to hold the ballast securely in position and to enable reliable force transmission between the support device and the ballast. The ballast can be inserted into or filled into the frame. The frame can be equipped with a single ballast or, alternatively, with several ballasts. In particular, it has been shown that the use of an even number of ballasts per frame is advantageous; a frame with two, four, six, eight, ten, or twelve ballasts is especially preferred.

[0021] The ballast body can be designed in various forms. For example, it can be a solid body, preferably made of a high-density material such as concrete, steel, or stone. Concrete slabs measuring 2 meters by 1 meter have proven particularly suitable, as they are relatively easy to handle.

[0022] It is also conceivable and possible to design the ballast body as a fillable container that can be filled with a liquid, such as water, or with a free-flowing or non-predictable material, such as sand or gravel. Using fillable ballast bodies allows the mass of the ballast system to be adapted to the specific requirements and facilitates transport, as filling only takes place at the installation site. The container can be designed as a separate component, or alternatively, the frame of the ballast system can incorporate it.

[0023] The forces acting on the support structure can be transferred via the frame to the ballast body, whose weight counteracts these forces and thus effectively prevents unintentional displacement or lifting of the quick-assembly hall. The use of a frame allows the ballast system to be modularly constructed and adapted to different load requirements. At the same time, assembly is simplified, as the frame can be supplied as a pre-assembled unit.

[0024] In an advantageous embodiment, the frame can have at least one coupling section connected to the support device. The coupling section can be an integral part of the frame or designed as a separate connecting element. The coupling section establishes a force-fit and / or positive-locking connection between the ballast device and the support device. In particular, the coupling section can be designed as a flange, tab, bolt receptacle, or bayonet connection and is preferably detachably connected to the support device.

[0025] The coupling section allows the forces acting on the support structure to be transferred to the ballast system. This improves the overall stability of the quick-assembly hall, as the support structure is braced in the area of ​​force application, effectively preventing the side wall from swinging upwards or tipping over. Furthermore, the coupling section enables a defined force transmission and can be designed to accommodate movement due to settling or thermal expansion without loosening the connection. A detachable connection between the coupling section and the support structure also facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the quick-assembly hall.

[0026] In a further advantageous embodiment, the frame can be formed from several beams connected to each other by fasteners. The beams can be straight, curved, or angled and, when assembled, form a closed or partially closed receiving structure for the ballast body(ies). Fasteners such as screws, plugs, bolts, or clamps can be used to create a detachable connection between the beams.

[0027] By constructing the frame from multiple beams, the ballast system can be built modularly, which significantly simplifies manufacturing, transport, and assembly. Individual beams can be assembled on-site to form the frame, resulting in improved transport characteristics, as the bulky frames do not need to be transported as a single unit. At the same time, the frame can be adapted to different geometric constraints or load situations by combining beams with varying lengths or cross-sectional areas.

[0028] In an advantageous embodiment, the frame can include an L-shaped beam in cross-section that supports the ballast body. Such a beam can have two legs offset from each other at an angle, one of which serves as a horizontal support surface for the ballast body, while the other leg can provide lateral support or guidance. The L-shaped beam can preferably be designed as a double-T beam with an L-shaped retaining section, resulting in an overall L-shaped cross-section. One or more stiffening rails can be provided to reinforce the beam.

[0029] By using an L-shaped cross-section support, a stable yet material-efficient base for the ballast can be created. The horizontal leg ensures even load distribution, while the vertical leg prevents the ballast from slipping laterally. Furthermore, the L-shaped support is easy to manufacture, transport, and assemble, and its shape makes it particularly well-suited for integration into modular frames.

[0030] In an advantageous embodiment, an internal support structure can be provided, which is connected to the ballast structure. The internal support structure supports an intermediate floor spaced apart from the floor structure and / or supports the roof truss. The internal support structure can be designed as a vertically arranged load-bearing element, for example, in the form of a column, a frame, or a strut structure. It can rest directly on the ballast structure or be coupled to it via connecting elements, ensuring a safe transfer of forces into the ballast structure. The intermediate floor can extend above the accessible floor structure and can be designed, for example, as a platform, gallery, or mezzanine level.

[0031] By installing an internal support structure, the load distribution within the rapid assembly hall can be specifically influenced and optimized. This allows both vertical roof loads and loads from an intermediate floor to be transferred via the internal support structure into the ballast system. This enables a greater span for the roof trusses, a reduction in lateral support moments, and more flexible use of the interior space. Furthermore, the internal support structure can contribute to additional stabilization of the overall structure against horizontal loads, such as those caused by wind.

[0032] In an advantageous further development, the floor structure may include floor slabs, with the floor slabs resting directly or indirectly on the ballast system in the area of ​​the ballast system, and resting on a supporting structure in areas without a ballast system. The floor slabs may be designed, for example, as modular panels, panel elements, or composite panels, which together form the walkable floor surface of the rapid assembly hall. Direct contact of the floor slabs with the ballast system is possible, for example, when the ballast system provides a flat bearing surface. In the case of indirect contact, an intermediate layer may be provided between the ballast system and the floor slabs, such as spacer profiles, elastic damping elements, or leveling layers, to compensate for unevenness and / or dampen vibrations.

[0033] In areas without ballast, the floor slabs can be supported by a separate load-bearing structure, such as substructure beams, crossbeams, support frames, or height-adjustable columns. This combination allows for a continuous, level floor surface, even if the ballast is only located in sections beneath the building. Simultaneously, it achieves an even load distribution, thereby improving stability and walking comfort. The modular design of the floor slabs and the load-bearing structure also allows for flexible adaptation to different floor plans, terrain features, and load requirements. Areas without ballast are those sections of the floor structure where no ballast is located beneath the floor.

[0034] In an advantageous embodiment, at least one of the floor slabs in the area of ​​the ballast system can have a higher density than one of the floor slabs in the area without ballast. This can be achieved, for example, by manufacturing the floor slabs in the area of ​​the ballast system from a higher-density material or by additionally providing them with inserts, reinforcements, or fillers. It is also conceivable that the floor slabs in this area are thicker or that cavities are filled with a heavier medium, such as sand, concrete, or granules. Particularly preferably, the floor slabs in the area of ​​the ballast system are made of concrete.

[0035] Increasing the density of the floor slabs in the area of ​​the ballast system further improves the stability of the prefabricated hall without requiring additional external ballast elements. Furthermore, denser floor slabs can reduce vibrations, which is particularly advantageous for larger spans or movement-sensitive structures within the prefabricated hall.

[0036] In a further advantageous design, each of the side walls can be assigned to a ballast system. This means that a separate ballast system is provided on each side of the quick-assembly hall, which is operatively connected to the support structure(s) of the corresponding side wall. The two ballast systems can be designed independently of each other or coupled to each other via frame elements or connecting beams to enable a common force transmission.

[0037] By assigning a separate ballast system to each side wall, a symmetrical load distribution can be achieved, thus improving the stability of the prefabricated hall, especially under asymmetrical loads such as wind pressure or one-sided use. This design also simplifies assembly, as each side wall can be pre-assembled together with its ballast system before the prefabricated hall is completed. Separate ballasting of both side walls also allows for better adaptation to uneven or varying ground conditions.

[0038] In an advantageous further development, the roof truss can be designed as a curved roof truss that spans the entire distance between the opposing support structures.

[0039] The arched roof truss can have an arc-shaped, segmented, or dome-shaped form and preferably constitutes a continuous, self-supporting structure. The curvature can be uniform or segmented and can be designed to form a raised apex or ridge. The roof truss can be constructed as a single piece or from several interconnected segments that are assembled on site.

[0040] The curvature improves force distribution, as it allows for better transfer of forces to the lateral support structures. Simultaneously, the arched shape enables greater usable interior height in the central area of ​​the hall. Furthermore, the arched geometry contributes to increased inherent stability of the roof, allowing the prefabricated hall to be constructed with a smaller profile cross-section or over larger spans.

[0041] In a further advantageous development, the load-bearing structures of the rapid assembly hall, such as the support structures, roof trusses, or frame elements of the ballast system, can be color-coded or color-coded. Different color coding of the components facilitates their identification during assembly and reduces the risk of confusion. The color coding can be permanently applied or in the form of removable markings, such as stickers. This enables a more efficient assembly sequence and improves the clarity of the rapid assembly hall's structure.

[0042] Furthermore, a procedure for the assembly of a rapid assembly hall is proposed, comprising the following steps: • Provide a ballast system, • Providing a soil structure that is placed on the ballast device, • Providing at least two opposing support structures and connecting the support structures to the ballast system, • Completing the rapid assembly hall by providing and arranging at least one roof truss between the support structures.

[0043] This method enables particularly simple and structured assembly of the quick-assembly hall. First, the ballast system is provided and positioned as the lowest structural unit, creating a stable base for the subsequent assembly steps. The ballast system can preferably be aligned on a prepared surface, ideally using suitable supports to ensure a horizontal position, and in particular, a substantially level alignment. This ensures that the floor structure subsequently placed on top rests flat and that the loads are distributed evenly.

[0044] The walkable floor structure is then positioned on the ballast system. Next, the support structures are connected to the ballast system. Following this, the roof truss is positioned between the opposing support structures. Finally, the side walls can be completed.

[0045] Alternatively, the following procedure can be chosen for assembling the quick-assembly hall: First, the ballast system is provided and positioned as the lowest structural unit, thus creating a stable base for the subsequent assembly steps. The ballast system can preferably be aligned on a prepared installation surface, ideally using suitable supports to ensure a horizontal position, particularly a substantially level alignment. This ensures that the subsequent floor structure rests flat and the loads are distributed evenly.

[0046] The side walls can then be erected with the support structures and connected to the ballast system, ensuring sufficient stability even at this early stage of assembly. Further completion is achieved by installing the walkable floor structure, which rests on the ballast system, and by positioning the roof truss between the opposing support structures. The sequence of these two steps may vary depending on the structural conditions or the available assembly aids.

[0047] The modular design of the components allows the process to be adapted for both smaller and larger rapid assembly halls. Overall, the proposed assembly sequence enables rapid construction with high positional accuracy, improved stability, and reduced assembly effort.

[0048] In an advantageous further development, the quick-assembly hall can be designed according to the advantageous further developments presented above and assembled using the disclosed method.

[0049] Further advantages and features of the quick-assembly hall according to the invention will become apparent from the following exemplary embodiments, which are explained in more detail with reference to the figures (Fig.).

[0050] These show: Fig. 1: A quick-assembly hall according to the invention in a schematic perspective view, Fig. 2: a schematic sectional view through the rapid assembly hall according to the invention Fig. 1; Fig. 3: A schematic, perspective detail view of the floor structure, the support structure, and the ballast system of the quick-assembly hall according to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2; Fig. 4: A perspective view of a frame with ballast bodies of the ballast system of the quick-assembly hall according to the Fig. 1 to 3; Fig. 5: a perspective view and a cross-section of the L-shaped support of the frame according to Fig. 4.

[0051] In the various figures, identical parts are always marked with the same reference symbols and are therefore usually only named or mentioned once.

[0052] Fig. Figure 1 shows a schematic perspective view of a rapid assembly hall 1 according to the invention, whereby this view allows a view through the structure, since individual components are not shown over their full length or are only indicated by way of example. The rapid assembly hall 1 comprises two opposing side walls 2. Each of the side walls 2 has several spaced-apart support structures 20, which are designed in the form of columns. A curved roof truss 3 extends between the opposing support structures 20 of the side walls 2. The roof trusses 3 form the roof structure of the rapid assembly hall 1, being arched and spanning the entire distance between the opposing support structures 20, thereby creating a large-area, column-free roof. As shown in the Fig. As indicated in Figure 1, several roof trusses 3 are arranged one behind the other at intervals. Depending on the desired length of the quick-assembly hall 1, the number of support structures 20 and roof trusses 3 can be adjusted, thus providing modularity. The roof membrane 31 is placed over the roof trusses 3 and attached to them, forming a continuous curved roof surface when assembled.

[0053] Openings 41 are provided on the end walls 4 of the rapid assembly hall 1. These openings are designed as doors or transparent elements to provide access to and illumination of the interior of the rapid assembly hall. The side walls 2 are fitted with cladding elements that offer weather protection. Furthermore, the rapid assembly hall 1 includes a walkable floor structure 5 on which people can move around and equipment can be moved or stored.

[0054] The one in Fig. The embodiment shown in Figure 1 serves to illustrate the basic structure of the quick-assembly hall according to the invention. Individual features, such as the number of roof trusses or the design of the side walls, may differ and be adapted to the relevant requirements.

[0055] The Fig. Figure 2 shows a schematic cross-sectional view through the quick-assembly hall 1 according to the invention. Fig. Figure 1, where, due to its symmetrical shape, only the left half of the quick-assembly hall 1 according to the invention is shown. The quick-assembly hall 1 has two opposing side walls 2, which encompass the support structure 20. The support structure 20 has a flange 22. The roof truss 3 is arranged between the opposing support structures 20. Furthermore, the quick-assembly hall 1 includes the walkable floor structure 5. A ballast device 6 is arranged below the floor structure 5, which is operatively connected to the support structures 20, i.e., connected to the flange 22 of the support structure 20 by means of detachable fasteners in the form of screws.

[0056] The ballast system 6 is located at an edge position R of the quick-assembly hall 1, while no ballast system is provided in the central position M of the quick-assembly hall 1. The edge position R is the area located laterally in the outer section, relative to an imaginary central axis (here the axis of symmetry) of the quick-assembly hall 1. The quick-assembly hall 1 typically has two opposing edge positions R – a left and a right – which are separated from each other by the central position M located between them. In this embodiment, the central position M forms the area without a ballast system.

[0057] According to the invention, the ballast device 6 is arranged below the ground structure 5, the ground structure 5 being supported on the ballast device 6 in the area of ​​the ballast device 6 by means of intermediate elements 71. In other words, the ground structure 5 is supported by the ballast device 6 in this area. The spacer or leveling elements designed as intermediate elements 71 ensure a uniform load distribution and can also compensate for any unevenness in the subsoil 9 on which the ballast device 6 rests.

[0058] In the central position M, the floor structure 5 is supported by a load-bearing structure 72 in the form of a substructure. This ensures that the floor structure 5 forms a continuous, level floor surface, the loads of which are safely transferred into the subsoil 9 via both the ballast system 6 and the load-bearing structure 72.

[0059] Furthermore, the quick-assembly hall 1 has an internal support structure 21, which is located inside the hall and extends from and is supported by the ballast structure 6. The internal support structure 21 is designed as a vertical column and serves to support an intermediate floor 51 and to additionally transfer roof loads, since the internal support structure 21 is connected to the beam 3.

[0060] In an embodiment not shown, it may be provided that a ballast device is also arranged in the central position M.

[0061] Fig. Figure 3 shows a schematic perspective detail view of the floor structure 5, the support structure 20, and the ballast system 6 of the quick-assembly hall 1 according to the invention. In this illustration, the floor structure 5 is partially omitted so that the ballast system 6 and its position below the floor structure 5 are clearly visible.

[0062] The connection between the ballast unit 6 and the support unit 20 is made via a coupling section 61, which is arranged on the upper side of the ballast unit 6. This coupling section 61 is designed as a flange, through which the forces acting on the support can be reliably transferred into the ballast unit 6, and the ballast unit 6 can counteract the forces in the support unit 20. The ballast unit 6 comprises several frames 60, each of which accommodates several ballast bodies 62. The ballast bodies 62 are designed as concrete slabs, with eight ballast bodies provided per frame.

[0063] The floor structure 5 comprises floor plates 52 and 53, with the floor plates 52 at the outer edge of the floor structure, i.e., those in the area of ​​the ballast system 6, having a higher density than the other floor plates 53, such as those in the ballast-free area, which can also be referred to as the middle layer M. In other words, the floor plates 52 at the outer edge have a higher mass than the other floor plates 53 of the floor structure 5.

[0064] Fig. Figure 4 shows a perspective view of one of the frames 60 of the ballast system 6 of the quick-assembly hall 1. The frame 60 is designed as an essentially rectangular supporting structure and includes a surrounding frame enclosure in which several ballast bodies 62 are accommodated. The ballast bodies 62 are designed as concrete slabs and are completely embedded within the frame enclosure.

[0065] A central section 63 is provided in the middle of the frame 60, extending longitudinally along the frame and comprising three parallel beams. This central section 63 connects the transverse frame sections and increases the stiffness of the entire ballast assembly 6. The coupling sections 61 and 65 are formed within the central section 63. The coupling section 61 of the frame 60 is connected to the associated support structure 20 of the side wall 2. The coupling section 65 is connected to the associated internal support structure 21. The coupling sections 61 and 65 are each designed as flanges and are rigidly connected to the central section 63. The coupling section 61 is effectively and releasably connected to the flange 22 of the support structure by means of a bolted connection.

[0066] The arrangement of the ballast bodies 62 within the frame 60 and the design of the central section 63 ensure a uniform mass distribution and high structural stability of the ballast system 6. At the same time, the coupling sections 61, 65 enable the safe transfer of the forces acting on the support structure 20 into the frame 60. A total of eight ballast bodies 62 are provided per frame 60, with one ballast system 6 comprising several frames 60 with corresponding ballast bodies 62.

[0067] To increase corrosion resistance, the frames 60 and all other load-bearing structures such as the roof support 3 or the support devices 20 can have a corrosion protection layer, for example in the form of a powder coating, electroplating or the like.

[0068] In the Fig. Figure 5 shows a perspective view (left) of the L-shaped beam 64 and a cross-section (right) through the beam 64. The ballast body 62 is indicated by a dashed line in the cross-section. The L-shaped beam 64 is designed as a double-T beam, which is provided with an L-shaped support section in the form of the transverse elements 68, resulting in an overall L-shaped cross-section. The horizontal leg serves to support and brace the ballast bodies 62, while the vertical leg forms a lateral boundary.

[0069] To increase structural stiffness, a stiffening rail 66 is arranged on the vertical leg of the transverse elements 68. This rail extends over part of the length of the beam 64 and supports the ballast body 62. The stiffening rail 66 is L-shaped and contributes to increased bending stiffness and uniform load distribution. Fastening holes 67 are provided on the end faces of the beam 64, allowing it to be connected to adjacent frame sections of the frame 60 of the ballast system 6.

[0070] The in the Fig. The quick-assembly hall 1 shown in figures 1 to 5, and its assemblies and individual parts, can be easily, quickly and simply assembled using the described method.
