BUILDING AND A METHOD FOR ERECTING IT Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: civil engineering. SUBSTANCE: vertical ridges are made in a building in the area of corner joint between external walls along all the height of a row of squared beams of one wall. The adjoined wall has vertical passages made in the form of swallow tail. Each external wall is rigidly held together at least by four rod-type fastening elements and tightened by links in zones of corner butt. The method proposed for erecting buildings lies in concurrent forming vertical ridges, vertical passages, and through holes to install rod- type fastening elements in all squared beams of each external wall, and assembling external walls on a foundation using successive insertion of vertical ridges of proper external walls in corresponding vertical passages of another external walls. EFFECT: high speed erection of buildings. 10 cl, 3 dwg
