WALL ARRANGEMENT AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING A WALL ARRANGEMENT

Description

[0001] The invention relates to a wall arrangement of the type specified in the preamble of claim 1 and to a method for manufacturing a wall arrangement.

[0002] A wall arrangement according to the preamble of claim 1 is disclosed in KR 10-2000400 B1. The upper and lower webs are designed as sheet metal angles that are mounted to a load-bearing wall. Subsequently, the vertical struts are guided through the holes in the upper web and arranged in receiving cups on the lower web. Then the perforated area of ​​the wall is bricked up.

[0003] KR 20-2009-0009004 U discloses a stiffening structure for a wall made of bricks, which has a lower web and struts extending through the bricks.

[0004] The KR 20-2014-0005726 U shows a stiffening structure for a wall arrangement made of bricks with an upper and a lower web as well as vertical struts.

[0005] The invention is based on the objective of creating a wall arrangement of the generic type that is easy to manufacture. A further objective of the invention is to provide a simple method for manufacturing a wall arrangement.

[0006] This problem is solved with respect to the wall arrangement by a wall arrangement having the features of claim 1. With respect to the method, the problem is solved by a method having the features of claim 13.

[0007] It has been shown that precisely aligning the stiffening structure with the supporting structure is not always straightforward. If the upper and / or lower beam is not positioned exactly vertically, the joints between the layers of bricks, between which the respective beam is positioned, will be too thick or too thin, negatively impacting the overall appearance of the wall. To avoid this visual impairment, the invention provides that the stiffening structure is connected to the supporting structure via an adjustment device, which allows for the vertical adjustment of at least one web of the stiffening structure relative to the supporting structure.

[0008] Advantageously, the adjustment device allows for the horizontal adjustment of at least one web of the stiffening structure. A simple design is achieved when the adjustment device includes a first locking surface on the stiffening structure that engages with a second locking surface on the support structure. This enables easy adjustment and secure fixing in the vertical and / or horizontal direction.

[0009] It has been shown that the arrangement of the webs and struts in the prior art is comparatively complex. An independent inventive concept relates to the arrangement of the struts and at least the lower web. In order to reduce the complexity of the arrangement of the webs and struts compared to the prior art, according to dependent claim 4, the invention provides that the lower web and all struts are firmly connected to one another, independent of the mortar of the wall, and form a force-absorbing, stable assembly.

[0010] This allows the lower web, together with the struts, to be positioned, fixed, and adjusted as a single unit on the supporting structure. This significantly reduces the effort required to construct the open section of the wall. During wall construction, the lower web and struts can be positioned and fixed as a unit on the supporting structure. The bricks can then be positioned against the struts and bonded to each other and to the struts using mortar. This enables very simple wall construction on site.

[0011] It can be provided that the upper web is connected to all struts via detachable connections, in particular screw connections, which allow for adjustment of the upper web's position relative to the struts in the longitudinal direction of the struts during the construction of the wall assembly. This allows for minor adjustments to the upper web's position, for example, to accommodate variations in joint height, despite prefabrication. Because the upper web is fixed to the struts via detachable connections, the arrangement of the layer(s) of bricks directly below the upper web is also simplified. The upper web can be removed for the arrangement of the layer(s) of bricks directly below it, or it can be attached to the struts only after this layer(s) of bricks have been arranged.This allows these layers or layers of bricks to be easily arranged between adjacent struts, even if the recesses of the bricks extend to the transverse side of the bricks.

[0012] Preferably, at least one strut is connected to at least one web via a welded joint. Particularly preferably, all struts are connected to the lower web via welded joints. This allows the lower web to be assembled together with the struts. It can be advantageous for the struts to be connected to both the upper and lower webs via welded joints. The struts, together with the upper and lower webs, then form a dimensionally stable, load-bearing frame that can be assembled as a unit and adjusted relative to the supporting structure. In this case, the frame defines both the spacing between the upper and lower webs and the grid in which the bricks are to be arranged, thus structurally determining the spacing between adjacent bricks in a course.

[0013] It may be provided that the at least one brace terminates at the upper web. Alternatively, it may be provided that the at least one brace projects beyond the upper web. In this case, the at least one brace can position one or more courses of bricks arranged above the upper web. It may be provided that the at least one brace terminates at the lower web. Alternatively, it may be provided that the at least one brace projects downwards beyond the lower web. In this case, the at least one brace can position one or more courses of bricks arranged below the lower web.

[0014] In a particularly preferred embodiment, the circumferential sides of the bricks, to which the recesses extend, are transverse faces of the bricks in at least one course. These transverse faces extend from one flat side of the wall to the other. It can be provided that at least one course, in particular the uppermost course or the uppermost two courses of bricks arranged below the upper web, has at least one recess formed on a longitudinal side of the brick that forms a flat side of the wall. This allows these bricks to be slid laterally against the struts and eliminates the need to tilt them between the struts for positioning. This also makes it possible to assemble the bricks with the upper web fixed to the struts, even with a small distance between the upper web and the course of bricks arranged directly below the uppermost web.

[0015] Advantageously, the supporting structure includes at least one column located outside the wall. Alternatively or additionally, it can be provided that at least one web is fixed in mortar between superimposed layers of bricks outside the breached area. In this case, the supporting structure is formed at least partially by the section of the wall located outside the breached area.

[0016] Preferably, each brick in the perforated area has at least one recess. Advantageously, a strut of the stiffening structure runs through each recess of a brick located in the perforated area. In a preferred embodiment, each brick in the perforated area has two recesses. This allows the bricks in the perforated area to be identical – optionally with the exception of the one to three layers of bricks located below the upper web. The recesses located outside the perforated area are then non-functional.

[0017] The struts are preferably arranged in a uniform grid. However, to achieve a non-uniform structure in the perforated area, the distances between adjacent struts can also vary.

[0018] A method for constructing a wall assembly includes fixing the lower web of the stiffening structure and the struts as a single assembly to the supporting structure and adjusting them relative to the supporting structure at least vertically, and preferably both vertically and horizontally. Subsequently, masonry units are advantageously arranged on the struts. The masonry units are advantageously laid with mortar between them. The masonry units are advantageously fixed to the struts by means of the mortar.

[0019] In one embodiment, the upper web, the lower web, and the stiffening struts are fixed to the supporting structure as a single assembly. In an alternative embodiment, the upper web is fixed to the struts, particularly using bolted connections, after the final course of bricks has been laid below it.

[0020] Exemplary embodiments of the invention are explained below with reference to the drawings. The drawings show: Figs. 1 and 2 are perspective views of a wall arrangement; Fig. 3 is a side view of an inner flat side of the wall arrangement.

[0021] Fig. 1 and Fig. 2Figure 1 shows a perspective view of a wall arrangement 1. The wall arrangement 1 comprises a wall 2. The wall 2 is constructed of bricks 7. The wall 2 includes a perforated section 3 in which openings 4 are formed between adjacent bricks 7 of a course 8. The openings 4 are created by an increased distance a between adjacent bricks 7 of a course 8. The distance a is not filled with mortar. Mortar 23 is provided between sections of bricks 7 arranged directly above and directly next to each other, which is contained in the Figs. 1 and 2 is not shown. Fig. 3 Mortar 23 is shown as an example between some of the wall stones 7.

[0022] The wall arrangement 2 includes a stiffening structure 5 for supporting the wall. The stiffening structure 5 is fixed to a supporting structure 6. The stiffening structure 5 absorbs forces acting perpendicular to the wall 2 and transfers them to the supporting structure 6. Figs. 1 and 2 The stiffening structure 5 is largely concealed by the bricks 7 of the wall 2.

[0023] Wall 2 has an outer flat side 9 and an inner flat side 10. Flat side 9 is the visible side of wall 2. The inner flat side 10 can face the exterior wall of a building and therefore not be visible from the outside. Alternatively, the inner flat side 10 can also be a visible side. In the exemplary embodiment, the supporting structure 6 is arranged adjacent to the inner flat side 10. The supporting structure 6 is barely or not at all visible from the outer flat side 9.

[0024] Each brick 7 has a top 11 and a bottom 12. Each brick 7 has longitudinal sides 13 that run along one of the flat sides 9, 10 of the wall. Each brick 7 has transverse sides 14 that extend from one flat side 9 to the other flat side 10. In the openwork area 3, the transverse sides 14 define the openings 4.

[0025] In the exemplary embodiment, the supporting structure 6 comprises two columns 22. A different number of columns 22 can also be provided. The stiffening structure 5 is fixed to the columns 22 via adjustment devices 19. The adjustment devices 19 allow the stiffening structure 5 to be adjusted relative to the supporting structure 6 in the vertical direction. Additionally, adjustment in at least one horizontal direction is also possible. The horizontal adjustment is advantageously an adjustment along the length of the wall 2 and / or an adjustment perpendicular to the wall 2.

[0026] As the Figs. 3 and 6 As shown, the stiffening structure 5 comprises an upper web 16 and a lower web 17. The webs 16 and 17 are designed as flat sheet metal strips. However, other designs, for example as angles or profiles, may also be advantageous. Fig. 3 As shown, in the exemplary embodiment, the webs 16 and 17 are arranged between superimposed layers 8 of masonry units 7. In an alternative embodiment, the webs 16 and / or 17 can define the upper and / or lower boundaries of the wall 2. Struts 18 extend between the webs 16 and 17. In the exemplary embodiment, the struts 18 terminate at the webs 16 and 17. However, it can also be provided that the struts 18 continue upwards over the upper web 16 and / or downwards over the lower web 17, in particular to position further layers 8 of masonry units 7 arranged above the upper web 16 and / or below the lower web 17.

[0027] The struts 18 extend through superimposed layers 8 of bricks 7. The struts 18 are advantageously oriented vertically. In the exemplary embodiment, the struts 18 are arranged at regular intervals c from one another. The interval c is preferably measured in the horizontal direction. Different intervals c between adjacent struts 18 can also be advantageous. In the exemplary embodiment, the struts 18 are rigidly connected to both the upper web 16 and the lower web 17. The webs 16 and 17, together with the struts 18, form a dimensionally stable, rigid frame 21. The frame 21 is dimensioned such that it is at least capable of absorbing the forces acting on the section of the open area 3 enclosed by the frame 21.

[0028] How Fig. 5 and Fig. 6As shown, the webs 16 and 17 lie completely between the flat sides 9 and 10 of the wall 2 and do not project beyond the flat sides 9 and 10. Advantageously, the webs 16 and 17 have a distance d from the flat sides 9 and 10, which is preferably at least partially filled with mortar 23. As a result, the webs 16 and 17 are hardly visible.

[0029] In the exemplary embodiment, fastening tabs 30 are formed on the webs 16 and 17, which project beyond the wall 2 on the inner flat side 10 and with which the stiffening structure 5 is fixed to the supporting structure 6.

[0030] As the Figs. 3 and 5 As shown, the struts 18 project into recesses 20 in superimposed bricks 7. The struts 18 are arranged completely within the wall 2 between the flat sides 9 and 10. The recesses 20 are advantageously filled with mortar 23 after arrangement, so that the struts 18 are not visible in the finished wall 2.

[0031] How Fig. 6 As shown, the supports 22 in the exemplary embodiment are designed as U-profiles. The supports 22 are preferably made of steel. A different design of the supports 22 may also be advantageous. Adjacent struts 18 have a distance c between them. In the exemplary embodiment, the distance c is the same for all struts 18. This results in a regular pattern of bricks 7 and openings 4. Different distances c may also be advantageous.

[0032] The struts 18 together with the upper web 16 and the lower web 17 form a stable frame 21, which is designed to absorb the forces acting perpendicularly on the area of ​​the wall 2 enclosed by the frame 21 ( Fig. 1 ) have an effect, for example wind forces.

[0033] How Fig. 7As shown, the struts 18 are connected to the lower web 17 in the exemplary embodiment via welded joints 26. Corresponding welded joints 26 are advantageously provided between the struts 18 and the upper web 16. This results in a stable design of the frame 21.

[0034] Fig. 8Figure 1 shows an enlarged embodiment of one of the adjustment devices 19. The other adjustment devices 19 are advantageously designed accordingly. Preferably, adjustment devices 19 are provided for both the lower web 17 and the upper web 16. A first locking surface 27 is formed on the support 22, which is formed by horizontally extending locking projections. In the exemplary embodiment, the locking surface 27 is formed on a first locking plate 37 that is fixedly connected to the support 22. A second locking surface 28 engages in the first locking surface 27 and is connected in the vertical direction to the mounting tab 30. The second locking surface 28 is attached to a second locking plate 38 ( Fig. 10 ) formed. In the exemplary embodiment, a fastening screw 32 is provided which protrudes through the second locking plate 38. The fastening screw 32 is screwed into a fastening nut 33, as well as Fig. 9shows. In the first resting area 27 and the support 22 there is a Fig. 8 A schematically depicted vertical elongated hole 29 is provided. Fig. 9 The elongated hole 29 is visible in the support 22. The vertical elongated hole 29 allows movement of the fastening screw 32, the fastening tab 30 and the first locking plate 37 relative to the support 22, and thus an adjustment of the fastening tab 30 and the stiffening structure 5 in the vertical direction relative to the support 22.

[0035] Advantageously, the fastening tab 30 has a horizontal elongated hole 31, which can be used, for example, in Fig. 10 The horizontal elongated hole 31 allows for adjustment in the horizontal direction, parallel to the longitudinal direction of the wall 2.

[0036] In the exemplary embodiment according to Figs. 8 and 9The mounting bracket 30 is designed in two parts. The mounting bracket comprises a horizontal extension 39 on the associated web 16 and an angle 40, which is slidable relative to the horizontal extension 39 in a horizontal direction perpendicular to the plane of the wall 2 via elongated holes 41 and can be fixed by means of a fastening screw 42. This allows for adjustment in a direction perpendicular to the wall 2.

[0037] In the exemplary embodiment according to Fig. 10 The fastening tab 30 is formed in one piece with the associated web 16 and is angled. No adjustment is provided here in the direction perpendicular to the plane of the wall 2. With regard to the elongated holes 29 and 31 and the detent surfaces 27 and 28, the embodiment corresponds to [reference to relevant example]. Fig. 10 according to the exemplary embodiment Figs. 8 and 9 .

[0038] Due to the detent surfaces 27 and 28, easy adjustment is possible, as the fastening screw 32 only needs to be slightly tightened in the fastening nut 33 until a preliminary adjustment is achieved. The detent surfaces 27 and 28 provide a preliminary locking position even with minimal tightening.

[0039] As the Figs. 11 to 17 As shown, in the exemplary embodiment, the fastening tabs 30 on the upper web 16 project downwards, and the fastening tabs 30 on the lower web 17 project upwards. In this exemplary embodiment, the frame 21 is bounded above by the upper web 16 and below by the lower web 17. No part of the stiffening structure 5 projects beyond the upper web 16 and the lower web 17. A different orientation of the fastening tabs 30 may also be advantageous.

[0040] As the Figs. 14 to 17 As shown, the fastening tabs 30 in the illustrated embodiment are designed as one-piece angles. Fig. 16As shown, the upper web 16 and the lower web 17 have a distance b between them. The distance b can be fixed by design if the upper web 16 is permanently connected to the struts 18. However, it can also be provided that the distance b is adjustable. For this purpose, advantageously adjustable connections between the struts 18 and the upper web 16 are provided, as shown below. Fig. 23 is described.

[0041] A different design of the adjustment devices 19 may also be advantageous.

[0042] The Figs. 19 to 21The lower web 17 is shown as a separate component before being fixed to the struts 18. The upper web 16 can advantageously be designed identically. In the exemplary embodiment, the lower web 17 has openings 36 for the struts 18. This predetermines the position of the struts 18 on the respective web 16, 17. During the manufacture of the frame 21, the struts 18 are positioned on the webs 16, 17 and then preferably welded in place.

[0043] Fig. 22 shows an alternative design for a supporting structure. In the exemplary embodiment according to Fig. 22 forms wall 2 ( Fig. 1) the supporting structure. An anchoring section 34 is arranged on the upper web 16, projecting laterally from the perforated area 3 of the wall 2 into the area of ​​the wall 2 where no openings 4 are formed between adjacent masonry units 7. The anchoring section 34 has openings 35 into which mortar can penetrate. The anchoring section 34 is fixed by the mortar in the area of ​​the wall 2 without openings 4. It may be possible to anchor the upper web 16 and / or the lower web 17 on one or both sides, instead of to supports 22, between superimposed layers of masonry units of the wall 2 by means of anchoring sections 34.

[0044] Fig. 23 shows an alternative design for attaching the upper web 16 to the struts 18. In the embodiment according to Fig. 23The upper web 16 is fixed to the struts 18 via screw connections 24. For this purpose, a nut 25 is screwed onto a thread formed on the strut 18 both above and below the upper web 16. By fixing the upper web 16 via detachable connections, in this embodiment via screw connections 24, the upper web 16 can be fixed to the struts 18 below the upper web 16 after the uppermost layer of bricks 7 has been arranged. This simplifies the production of the uppermost layer(s) below the upper web 16.

[0045] The Figs. 24 to 26 The figures show the design of the wall stones 7 in detail. Preferably, all wall stones 7 that project into the openwork area 3 are identical. Other designs of individual wall stones 7, preferably of individual layers 8 of wall stones 7, can also be advantageous.

[0046] Fig. 24Figure 11 shows the top surface, a long side 13 and a transverse side 14 of the brick 7. Fig. 24 The recesses 20 of the brick 7 are also clearly visible. Fig. 25 shows a top view of the upper surface 11 and Fig. 26 a side view of a long side 13. How the Figs. 24 to 26 As shown, two recesses 20 are provided on the opposite transverse sides 14 of the wall stone 7. For wall stones 7 that only project into the perforated area 3 with one side, a design with only one recess 20 may also be provided.

[0047] The recesses 20 are open to a circumferential side of the brick running between the top 11 and the bottom 12. The brick 8 can be slid over a strut 18 via this circumferential side and mortared there with mortar 23 ( Fig. 3 ) are fixed. If the recesses 20 are open to opposite transverse sides 14, the brick 7 can be tilted to this effect.

[0048] In Fig. 25 An alternative design for the recesses 20 is shown with a dashed line. The recesses 20 indicated by the dashed line open onto a common longitudinal side 13 and are closed on the transverse sides 14. This design of the recesses 20 allows a brick 7 to be slid horizontally onto two struts 18, starting from one flat side, preferably the outer flat side 9. This also makes it possible to arrange bricks 7 directly below the upper web 16.

[0049] The recesses 20, which open onto the transverse sides 14, necessitate that the longitudinal sides 13 be completely closed. This results in an attractive appearance of the wall 2 in the openwork area 3.

[0050] To construct the wall 2, it is provided that at least the lower web 17 and the struts 18, which are rigidly connected to the lower web 17, are first mounted on the supporting structure 6 and adjusted relative to the supporting structure and, if applicable, relative to layers 8 of masonry units 7 arranged below the lower web 17. It may be provided that the upper web 16, together with the lower web 17 and the struts 18, forms a dimensionally stable frame 21, and that the entire frame 21 is mounted and adjusted on the supporting structure 6. However, it may also be provided that the upper web 16 is only mounted after the layer 8 of masonry units 7 arranged directly below the upper web 16 has been laid. If one or more layers 8 of masonry units 7 are provided below the lower web 17, as in the exemplary embodiment, then preferably this lowest layer 8 or these lowest layers 8 of masonry units 7 are constructed first.This layer or layers 8 of masonry units 7 arranged below the lower web 17 may have openings 4. However, it may also be provided that this layer or layers 8 of masonry units 7 are manufactured without openings 4.

[0051] After the lower web 17 with the struts 18 has been arranged and adjusted, the bricks 7 are positioned layer by layer in the grid provided by the struts 18 and fixed with mortar 23. If both recesses 20 extend to the transverse sides 14 of the bricks 7, the bricks 7 can be tilted to position them against the struts 18.

[0052] After reaching the upper web 16, another section of wall 2 can be created above the upper web 16, whereby this further section of wall 2 may have openings 4 or may be created without openings 4.

[0053] If the upper web 16 was not positioned and fixed together with the lower web 17, then after the last course 8 of bricks 7 has been laid below the upper web 16, the upper web 16 is positioned and fixed to the struts 18. The upper web 16 is advantageously secured using detachable connections, for example, via the ones shown in Fig. 23 The screw connections 24 shown are connected to the struts 18. A connection via welded connections 26 can also be advantageous. The upper web 16 is adjusted relative to the supporting structure 6 and connected to it.
