Structural components

Abstract

The present invention relates to building elements (A) for building of framings of joists or walls. Each building element consists of trapezoid thin sheet here called profile plate ( 1 ) completed by wooden bars ( 2 ), see FIG. Ia. Alternatively the wooden bars ( 2 ) may be replaced by any other corresponding material. In this application the wooden bars ( 2 ) or when these have been replaced for the purpose by any other material are called connectors (D). In FIGS. Ib, Ic, 2 b , 2 c and 4 b , 4 c the connectors (D) consist of metal bars ( 2′ ) respectively metal plates ( 2 ″) in stead of wooden bars ( 2 ). The object of the building elements (A) is to form support for fastening of layer materials ( 3 ) according to FIG. 5 b , alternatively bars ( 4 ) according to FIG. 5 c , alternatively boards ( 5 ) according to FIG. 5 a or in combination of these ( 3, 4, 5 ) e g according to FIG. 5 d in order to form a frame for load support perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the profile plates ( 1 ), see FIGS. 4 a, 4 b ,4 c , coinciding with load support in the longitudinal direction of the profile plates ( 1 ). This means that framings of joists and walls designed as mentioned above by frame-action carries perpendicularly to the longitudinal direction of the profile plates ( 1 ) at the same time as load support occurs along the strengthened profile plates ( 1 ). In this way a framing of joists or wall with load support in two perpendicular main directions is achieved at a four side support of the framing of joists/wall.

1 . Structural component including building elements for the building of framing of joists and walls, comprising trapezoid profile plates connected by connectors placed on the outer side of the flanges of the profile plates and coinciding with their length, wherein the building element, when joined at its outer sides between its connectors and layer materials, alternatively bars, alternatively boards, or a combination of these forms frames perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the profile plates for supporting loads in this direction and at the same time supports loads in the longitudinal direction of the profile plates, strengthened by the connectors, when a load is placed on framing of joists or walls designed as above. 
   
   
       2 . Structural component according to  claim 1 , wherein the connectors are arranged in the longitudinal direction of the profile plate for strengthening the profile plate in this direction. 
   
   
       3 . Structural component according to  claim 1 , wherein the profile plate and its respective connectors are connected by glue. 
   
   
       4 . Structural component according to  claim 1 , wherein the profile plate and its respective connectors are connected by screws. 
   
   
       5 . Structural component according to  claim 1 , wherein the profile plate and its respective connectors are connected by nails. 
   
   
       6 . Structural component according to  claim 1 , wherein the profile plate and its respective connectors are connected by welding. 
   
   
       7 . Structural component according to  claim 1 , wherein the profile plate and its respective connectors are connected by rivets. 
   
   
       8 . Structural component according to  claim 1 , wherein the connectors comprise wooden bars. 
   
   
       9 . Structural component according to  claim 1 , wherein the connectors comprise metal bars, or some other material suitable for the purpose. 
   
   
       10 . Structural component according to  claim 1 , wherein hollow chambers between the profile plate and the layer material, bars or boards, respectively, contain sewage pipes, water pipes or electrical lines. 
   
   
       11 . Structural component according to  claim 1 , wherein hollow chambers between the profile plate and the layer material, bars or boards, respectively, contain filling for sound, fire, or heat insulation. 
   
   
       12 . Method of providing a structural component according to  claim 1 , comprising connecting layer material, bars or boards to the connectors of the building element, so that a frame is formed transversely to the longitudinal direction of the profile plates, for supporting loads in this direction. 
   
   
       13 . Method according to  claim 12 , comprising placing installations, such as sewage pipes, water pipes or electrical lines in hollow chambers between the building element and the layer material, bars or boards comprised in the framing of joists. 
   
   
       14 . Method according to  claim 12 , comprising providing insulation filling in the hollow chambers between the building element and the layer material, bars or boards, included in the framing of joists, to improve sound, fire or heat insulation.
