SET OF SECTIONS FOR EXTERNAL TRANSLUCENT BUILDING ENVELOPES Russian patent published in 2000 - IPC

FIELD: construction engineering. SUBSTANCE: set of sections used for building structures, including vertical outdoor translucent ones, vertical elevations, inclined roofs, pool roofs, sports complexes, green-houses, indoor partitions etc. has box- or open-section bearing post. Longitudinal ledges are installed on one or two adjacent faces of bearing post and have slots to receive packings. Longitudinal closed section is made between ledges; its projecting lateral faces form U- shaped section to accommodate fastenings and thermal inserts. The latter are placed inside bearing posts to improve their stiffness and strength. There is girth rail of box or open section with perpendicular edges. It has longitudinal U-shaped section with notches on its inner surfaces to receive fastenings and to mount thermal inserts. Longitudinal ledges with packing accommodating slots are installed on each side of U-shaped section. External and internal box-shaped sections of window casing and window leaf are joined by means of polymeric heat-insulating insert. Plastic spacer and glass pack support are placed between glass pack flank, external and internal sections of window leaf. Moisture drain holes are made in external section walls of window-frame and in long tab of window-casing external section. EFFECT: enlarged functional capabilities. 52 dwg
