[0013] The building will be described with reference to Figs. 1 to 4. 1 and 2, the building 1 includes a main body 2 and a structure 3 including a floor extending outside the main body 2. The building 1 further includes a room 4 connected to the structure 3 (see FIG. 3).

[0014] Examples of the structure 3 include a balcony 5, a veranda, a terrace, and a deck. The structure 3 may be provided on the first floor of the building 1. The structure 3 may be provided on the second or higher floor of the building 1. In this embodiment, a balcony 5 will be described as an example of the structure 3.

[0015] 3 and 4, the balcony 5 includes a plurality of base members 10, a cross member 16, a base portion 17, a plurality of pedestals 20, a floor support member 25, a floor member 26, and a reinforcing member 27. The balcony 5 may further include a first drainage pipe 31 and a second drainage pipe 32. In the description of the balcony 5, the vertical direction is referred to as the height direction DZ, the direction along the wall of the main body portion 2 is referred to as the horizontal direction DX, and the direction perpendicular to the horizontal direction DX and the height direction DZ is referred to as the vertical direction DY.

[0016] The balcony 5 has a first base material 11, a second base material 12, a third base material 13, and a fourth base material 14 as the base material 10. The first base material 11 to the fourth base material 14 are made of wood or steel. The first base material 11 and the second base material 12 are thicker than the third base material 13 and the fourth base material 14. Specifically, the width of the first base material 11 and the second base material 12 in the height direction DZ is at least twice the width of the third base material 13 and the fourth base material 14 in the height direction DZ. The width of the first base material 11 and the second base material 12 in the direction intersecting the height direction DZ is equal to the width of the third base material 13 and the fourth base material 14 in the direction intersecting the height direction DZ. The first base material 11 constitutes a beam of the main body 2. The second base material 12 is disposed parallel to the first base material 11 at a predetermined distance from the first base material 11 in the horizontal direction. The second substrate 12 is fixed to the first substrate 11 via the third substrate 13 and the fourth substrate 14. The third substrate 13 supports one end of the balcony 5 in the lateral direction DX, and the fourth substrate 14 supports the other end of the balcony 5. The third substrate 13 and the fourth substrate 14 span from the first substrate 11 to the second substrate 12.

[0017] The cross members 16 are provided so as to span across the multiple base materials 10. Specifically, the multiple cross members 16 are provided so as to span from the first base material 11 to the second base material 12. The multiple cross members 16 are disposed between the third base material 13 and the fourth base material 14 and parallel to the third base material 13 and the fourth base material 14. The multiple cross members 16 are disposed so that the mounting height decreases in sequence from the end toward the center in the horizontal direction DX.

[0018] The base portion 17 is supported by the cross members 16. The base portion 17 is attached to the cross members 16 so as to span across a plurality of the cross members 16. The base portion 17 is inclined. Specifically, the base portion 17 is inclined so as to descend from the end of the balcony 5 toward the center of the balcony 5.

[0019] In one example, the base portion 17 has a foundation layer 18 and a waterproof layer 19 provided on the foundation layer 18. The foundation layer 18 is composed of a plurality of plate members. The plurality of plate members are individually arranged on the cross members 16. The foundation layer 18 is formed by laying the plate members over the entire surface of the balcony 5. The waterproof layer 19 is composed of a waterproof sheet. The waterproof sheet covers the entire foundation layer 18.

[0020] The pedestal 20 is disposed on the base portion 17. The pedestal 20 has a base 21, a shaft portion 22 movably provided on the base 21, and an installation portion 23 on which a floor support 25 is placed. The shaft portion 22 moves in the height direction DZ relative to the base 21. For example, a screw is provided on the peripheral surface of the shaft portion 22. The rotation of the shaft portion 22 causes the shaft portion 22 to move up and down. The movement of the shaft portion 22 changes the length from the bottom surface of the base 21 to the upper end surface of the shaft portion 22. The installation portion 23 is attached to the upper end surface of the shaft portion 22.

[0021] The upper open end of the first drain pipe 31 is connected to the lowest part of the base 17. The lower open end of the first drain pipe 31 is connected to the drainage channel 33. The upper open end of the second drain pipe 32 is connected to a part of the base 17 that is higher than the part to which the first drain pipe 31 is connected. The lower open end of the second drain pipe 32 is connected to the drainage channel 33.

[0022] At least one of the multiple pedestals 20 is disposed on the cross member 16 via a base portion 17. Preferably, each of the multiple pedestals 20 is disposed on the cross member 16 via a base portion 17. One or more pedestals 20 are disposed on one cross member 16. In one example, the multiple pedestals 20 are aligned in the vertical direction DY. The shaft portions 22 of the multiple pedestals 20 are adjusted in position in the height direction DZ so that the installation portions 23 are flush with each other.

[0023] The floor support 25 is made of, for example, wood or resin. The floor support 25 is placed on the installation portions 23 of the multiple pedestals 20 that are aligned in a row in the vertical direction DY. The multiple floor support members 25 are aligned parallel to the horizontal direction DX. In one example, the multiple floor support members 25 are aligned at equal intervals in the horizontal direction DX.

[0024] The floor material 26 is made of, for example, wood, resin, or ceramic-based material. In one example, the floor material 26 is placed on the floor support material 25 so as to intersect with the floor support material 25. The multiple floor materials 26 are arranged in the vertical direction DY.

[0025] In one example, the height of the floor surface 26a formed by the floor material 26 is equal to the height of the floor surface 4a of the room 4. The floor surface 26a formed by the floor material 26 may be lower than the floor surface 4a of the room 4. For example, the floor surface 26a formed by the floor material 26 is lower than the floor surface 4a of the room 4 by a predetermined height. The predetermined height is set in the range of 5 mm or more and 15 mm or less.

[0026] The reinforcing member 27 is made of, for example, wood or steel. The reinforcing member 27 reinforces the balcony 5. The reinforcing member 27 is disposed at a position lower than the base portion 17. The reinforcing member 27 is provided so as to span a plurality of substrates 10. Specifically, the reinforcing member 27 is provided so as to span the first substrate 11 and the second substrate 12. One end face of the reinforcing member 27 abuts against the side face of the first substrate 11, and the other end face of the reinforcing member 27 abuts against the side face of the second substrate 12. The reinforcing member 27 is thinner than the first substrate 11 and the second substrate 12. The reinforcing member 27 may be the same thickness as the third substrate 13 and the fourth substrate 14, or may be thicker than the third substrate 13 and the fourth substrate 14. The reinforcing member 27 is fixed to the first substrate 11 and the second substrate 12 at a position lower than the third substrate 13 and the fourth substrate 14.

[0027] The operation of this embodiment will now be described. The balcony 5 is supported by the first base material 11 to the fourth base material 14. Furthermore, the balcony 5 is reinforced by a reinforcing member 27 provided across the first base material 11 and the second base material 12. The balcony 5 supported by the first base material 11 to the fourth base material 14 is reinforced by the reinforcing member 27, and therefore has a strong structure.

[0028] In this embodiment, the second substrate 12 is disposed at a distance from the first substrate 11 in the vertical direction DY. The second substrate 12 is fixed to the first substrate 11 via the third substrate 13 and the fourth substrate 14. A plurality of cross members 16 are disposed between the third substrate 13 and the fourth substrate 14. The plurality of cross members 16 are disposed so as to span the first substrate 11 and the second substrate 12. The space above the cross members 16 is configured as a drainage space. Therefore, if a reinforcing member 27 is disposed in this space, the reinforcing member 27 will be wetted with rainwater. The reinforcing member 27 is disposed below the base portion 17. The reinforcing member 27 is fixed to the first substrate 11 and the second substrate 12 at a position lower than the third substrate 13 and the fourth substrate 14.

[0029] In this way, the balcony 5 comprises the first base material 11 to the fourth base material 14, the multiple cross members 16, and the reinforcing material 27. This makes the balcony 5 strong overall. Furthermore, the reinforcing material 27 is fixed to the first base material 11 and the second base material 12 at a position lower than the third base material 13 and the fourth base material 14, making the balcony 5 less likely to twist. Furthermore, the reinforcing material 27 is disposed at a position lower than the base portion 17, which inhibits corrosion of the reinforcing material 27.

[0030] The effects of this embodiment will be described. (1) Building 1 comprises a structural body 3 including a floor that protrudes outward. An example of structural body 3 is a balcony 5. Structural body 3 comprises a plurality of base members 10, cross members 16, a base portion 17 supported by cross members 16, a plurality of pedestals 20, a floor material 26 supported by pedestals 20, and a reinforcing member 27 that reinforces structural body 3. Reinforcing member 27 is disposed at a position lower than base portion 17 and is provided so as to span across the plurality of base members 10. This configuration can increase the strength of structural body 3 including the floor that protrudes outward.

[0031] (2) At least one of the multiple pedestals 20 is disposed on the cross member 16 via the base portion 17. According to this configuration, the floor material 26 is supported by the cross member 16 via the pedestal 20. This makes it possible to suppress bending of the floor material 26 in the up-down direction.

[0032] (3) The height of the floor surface 26a formed by the floor material 26 in the structure 3 is equal to the height of the floor surface 4a of the room 4. With this configuration, it is possible to smoothly move from the room 4 to the floor that protrudes to the outside.

[0033] (4) The base portion 17 has the foundation layer 18 and the waterproof layer 19 provided on the foundation layer 18. With this configuration, decay of the base portion 17 can be suppressed.

[0034] (5) The base portion 17 is inclined. With this configuration, water can be drained quickly. For example, rainwater leaking through gaps in the floor material 26 is received by the base portion 17. The inclined base portion 17 quickly guides the rainwater to the first drain pipe 31.

[0035] (6) The structure 3 further includes a first drain pipe 31 and a second drain pipe 32. The first drain pipe 31 is connected to the lowest part of the base portion 17, and the second drain pipe 32 is connected to a part of the base portion 17 that is higher than the part to which the first drain pipe 31 is connected. This configuration makes it possible to prevent water from overflowing onto the floor surface 26a.

[0036] <Modification> The above embodiment is an example of a form that the building 1 can take, and is not intended to limit the form. The building 1 can take a form different from the form exemplified in the embodiment. One example is a form in which part of the configuration of the embodiment is replaced, changed, or omitted, or a form in which a new configuration is added to the embodiment. An example of a modified embodiment is shown below.

[0037] There is no limitation on the type of building 1. The building 1 may be a house, a villa, a factory, an office building, or a public facility such as a school.

[0038] In this embodiment, the floor material 26 is disposed on the base 20 via the floor support material 25, but the floor material 26 may be disposed directly on the base 20.

[0039] The structure 3 may have any shape in a plan view. In this embodiment, the balcony 5 has a rectangular shape in a plan view, but the balcony 5 may have a triangular shape or a pentagonal shape. [Explanation of symbols]
