Description

Description [0001] The present invention relates to a modular base element, longitudinal member, board and panel with low heat conductivity and improved three-dimensional stability with respect to externally and/or internally acting forces, in particular for the construction of walls and/or flooring of buildings.

[0002] It is known, in the technical sector of the wood building industry that the perimetral constructional components, such as the outer walls, must have various physical and mechanical characteristics in order to meet the various requirements of the sector and in particular: optimum air tightness, static stability, resistance to atmospheric agents and sound-proofing properties, as well as low vapour permeability and heat conductivity and high fire resistance.

[0003] It is also known that the various characteristics of the constructional component influence each other, also in opposition to each other, and must be considered as a whole during the design stage, in particular as regards the through-holes in the external constructional components or the mating points and/or joints with other constructional components.

[0004] At presentthe manufacture of an external wooden wall which meets said requirements is possible only by assembling several constructional layers which perform individual well-defined functions which are directly related to the sought-after effect; examples of these single layers are: static structures, vapour check layers and/or barriers, wind-stopper films, additional heat insulation layers, inner and outer cladding with a cavity for inserting service installations such as electrical connections and/or ventilation/air-conditioning ducts.

[0005] These known technologies, however, result in structurally complex and costly structures and at the same time give rise to constructional defects and resultant damage to the building.

[0006] It is also known that a further major problem affecting constructional components made of solid wood consists in the relatively high heat conductivity of the latter, which has the effect that, in order to construct an external wall made of solid wood for low-energy buildings, high wall thicknesses are required, with the result that the constructional components have a high thickness and weight and are unduly costly; consequently the walls are usually made with the thickness needed to ensure the necessary statics and then completed with the addition of insulation layers.

[0007] A further known problem of all solid-wood structures consists in the shrinkage or swelling of the wood caused by the variations in the moisture content of the wood itself; in greater detail, the wood, and generally the organic materials which are increasingly used as building materials, have special characteristics in that their physical properties are structured differently in the three anatomical directions of the wood, i.e. longitudinal direction (direction of the veining), radial direction (direction of trunk growth) and tangential direction (relative to the annular growth ring), namely as regards both the load-bearing capacity and swelling and shrinkage of the wood resulting from variations in the moisture content thereof; it is also known that, while the influence of said environmental factors is not significant in the direction of the veining of the wood, the same factors instead have a major effect on the variations in the dimensions transverse to the said veining (approximate ratios = 1:10:20), said variations being also distinguishable in terms of direction and type of veining (radial or axial relative to the core of the trunk, which also differ depending on the alburnum or duramen).

[0008] Without having to resort to major constructional measures, there exist substantially two possibilities for limiting the problem of the dimensional variations of the wood in solid-wood constructional components: a) in the case of panels composed of boards which are joined together, it is avoided forming the joint by means of a force-fit of the single boards so as to leave a certain "play" between them and thus allow deformation, without, however, the entire component being subject to a major variation in the dimensions. b) in the case of panels consisting of laminated wood or multi-layer panels, the panel is fixed by joining together sheets which are superimposed alternately so that the fibres intersect each other (multi-layer panels, for example, Kreuzlagenverbundholz).

[0009] Although fulfilling their function these known methods, however, are unable to prevent the wooden component from shrinking or expanding in any case in the third direction (perpendicularly with respect to the panel). This constructional problem arises in particular in the case of angular components (owing to the formation of gaps) and more particularly when there is an increase in the thickness of the board, and therefore especially in the case of high-thickness solid-wood structures.

[0010] Further drawbacks associated with solid-wood constructional components of the known type arise from the fact that the wind, air and moisture permeability characteristics of said components do not always ensure a hermetic seal overtime of the structural joints, especially in the case of systems where each individual component is subject individually to the deformations arising from the natural shrinkage and swelling of the wood.

[0011] Although in the case of solid-wood, glued, multilayer constructional components the impermeability of the individual components is ensured, the shrinkage and swelling have a significant influence on the dimensions of the entire component, transversely with respect to the veining. The joints which are formed between the single constructional components which are subject to deformation must consequently be properly sealed, in view of the significant movements of the single components rel- ative to each other. There exist on the market various solid-wood board systems for walls and floor components made using a multi-layer construction system, such as Kreuzlagenholz (KLH), Dickholz (Finnforest-Merk), Tho-ma-Massivholzwand, MassivHolzMauer (MHM); these are formed by several layers of solid-wood boards such that the wood veining of the single layers or all the layers of the boards are arranged diagonally or orthogonally relative to each other and the layers are joined together by means of joining elements (glue, wooden plugs, metal elements) such that the elements are constrained in both directions of the board with the effect of minimizing shrinking and swelling of the wood.

[0012] Also known in the sector are solid-wood components formed as boards or monobloc structures (Blockbauweise) in which the wood veining of the single layers (planks, beams, boards or battens) is arranged in a single direction perpendicular to the direction of the boards.

[0013] The single wooden elements are joined together by means of glue, plugs, wooden plugs and/or wooden elements.

[0014] As regards the problem of shrinkage and swelling of the wood, in such cases constructional measures for the building must be adopted (such as the so-called block building system forglued laminated board and laminated wood structures) or the constructional components must be assembled so that they cannot be force-fitted together and each component manages to absorb the resultant deformations, while keeping the total length and width of the wooden component in question more or less stable.

[0015] This effect is achieved with additional barrier layers or elements having plugs arranged in a particular manner, metal elements or plastic elements, etc.

[0016] A special variant is the composite laminated wood structure Holzlagenverbundplatte) described in EP 1 734 200 B1 (Reinverbund) and composed of several layers of boards which are arranged in parallel and together with flashing battens). In this case also shrinkage and swelling of the wall orfloor constructional component widthwise or lengthwise are avoided, while allowing the single boards to expand freely owing to their associated bilateral joining channels which permit a certain degree of movement and a certain dimensional variation of the single boards.

[0017] Usually the wooden-block components described above have heat insulation properties which are similar to those of solid wood. Improved values are obtained if the joints are notformed using glue: for example the solid-wood walls (Thoma-Massivholzwande) described in DE-20208773U1 achieve better values of the heat insulation properties by means of the provision of superficial grooves in the wooden components.

[0018] Another example of embodiment is proposed in EP 1 288 386 A1 (Walch) involving the assembly of various layers of boards, some of which have cavities and/or grooves which should allow improved heat insulation. Al so known from EP-1 715 114A2 in the name of the same inventor is another solid-wood component (laminated wooden board component) in which the wall has internal air chambers which should achieve improved temperature gradients of said wall.

[0019] A further type of construction has been described in WO 2011/000120 in which structured wooden components used for the insulation of pillar structures (Holzstanderbauweise) are composed of laminated elements with grooves.+ [0020] WO 00/77319 A1 discloses a structural base element according to the preamble of claim 1.

[0021] The technical problem which is posed, therefore, is that of providing a building component made of material which is substantially anisotropic with respect to a longitudinal "veining" direction, preferably wood, for external walls, and is able to provide the following characteristics: -) low deformation of the building component due to shrinkage and swelling of the wood compared to solid wood, such that there are no weak points in the joints; -) in the ideal case, all the necessary physical characteristics such as: heat insulation, structural strength, sound-proofing, hermetic seal can be achieved using a few uniform constructional components; -) a substantially low heat conductivity coefficient compared to solid-wood components, namely improved resistance to heat conductivity; -) suitability for ensuring correct natural convention of water vapour.

[0022] In connection with this problem it is also required that the wooden building component should be: -) able to be produced using wooden components which are low-weight and low-thickness, so as to allow easier handling and low-cost transportation, and which may be easily dried and are suitable for low-cost industrial processing; -) suitable for easy finishing if required; -) able to ensure formation of the external façade surface and inner surface adaptable as far as possible to the external finish, leaving the end user with the possibility of choosing whether to leave the wood visible, whether to apply cladding of any type, whether to paint the wall, or the like.

[0023] These results are obtained according to the present invention by a modular base element made of wood or the like according to the characteristic features of Claim 1.

[0024] The present invention relates furthermore to a longitudinal member for building structures according to the characteristic features of Claim 14 and to a composite panel according to the characteristicfeatures of Claim 18.

[0026] For the purposes of the present invention the following definitions will be used: MODULAR BASE ELEMENT = modular base element made of a material, for example wood, substantially anisotropic in a longitudinal direction obtained preferably from a plant; below also referred to as "base element"; LONGITUDINAL MEMBER = module formed by the joining together of several base elements extending in the longitudinal direction (X-X); [0027] PANEL = supporting element (such as a wall, ceiling or roof) of a structure, made of wood or different material substantially anisotropic in a longitudinal direction and provided with cavities extending in the longitudinal direction.

[0028] BOARD = modularelementformed from regular and/or irregular cuts of a panel design and suitable for the formation of panels.

[0029] It is understood that, for the purposes of the invention, the terms "formed by the joining together of and "comprising" are to be understood in either a physical or geometrical sense.

[0030] As shown in Fig. 1, a wooden modular base element 10 is obtained from a trunk 1 with veining 1a which is visible also on the base element itself; below, for easier description and without a limiting meaning, a set of three reference axes will be assumed, said axes having given directions, irrespective of the orientation of the figures, namely: a longitudinal direction X-X, parallel to the direction of the veining 1a, or anisotropy, of the base element; transverse direction Y-Y, perpendicular to the said veining and corresponding to the width of the base element 10; and vertical direction Z-Z perpendicular to the plane of the other two axes. The base element 10, after suitable machining, in a first embodiment will have (Fig. 2): FIGS. 2+3 [0031] -) a first flange 11, an outer surface 11a of which is flat and the other, inner, surface 11b of which, situated opposite the first surface, has a web 12 extending outwards and forming the element for joining with the inner surface 13b of a second flange 13 parallel to the firstflange 11 and with an associated flat outer surface 13a.

[0032] As shown in Fig. 2b, the first flange 11 and the second flange 13 have their respective free edges 11c, 13c projecting, in the transverse direction (Y-Y) perpendicular to the veining direction and contained within the plane, beyond the end bounded by the web 12 of the otherflange 13,11 and in opposite directions to each other, by a suitable amount (D), preferably, but not necessarily the same for both he flanges.

[0033] In its zones respectively adjacent to the flanges 11 and 13, the web 12 is hollowed out internally so as to form, respectively, a first recess 12a and a second recess 12b extending in the transverse direction Y-Y and open in both senses towards the outside.

[0034] The geometrical form of the base element is therefore such as to define an inclined theoretical web (indicated by broken lines), resulting in a cross-section of the base element extending in a substantially Z-shaped manner; the inclination of the web 12 is defined by a first angle a relative to the upper flange 11 and by a second angle ß relative to the second flange 13, which are preferably, but not necessarily, equal to each other.

[0035] As shown in Figs. 3a,3b, the different depth (Y-Y) and height (Z-Z) of the recesses 12a,12b determine different shapes - which are qualitatively equivalent - of the base element. FIGS. 4+5 [0036] Figs. 4a,4b show a further variation of embodiment of the base element 210 which has in this case: a first flange 11 and a second flange 13 as in the preceding example; the two flanges have, formed between them, a joining web 212, projecting from the inner surface 11 b of the first flange from one of the two end edges thereof and inclined towards the second flange 13 to which it is connected at its end edge.

[0037] In this case also, the opposite free end edges 11 c and 13c of the two flanges 11 and 13 extend by an amount "D" beyond the opposite corners connecting together the web and the two flanges.

[0038] This configuration results in the formation of: a first recess 212a lying between the first flange 11 and the web 212; a second recess 212b lying between the said web 212 and the second flange 13.

[0039] Preferably the inclination of the theoretical webs 12 and 212 relative to the two flanges 11 and 13 has angles a and ß which are smaller than 90°, preferably ranging between 15° and 75° and even more preferably ranging between 40° and 60°.

[0040] Fig. 5 shows variations of exemplary embodiments with different chamfering of the geometrical form of the base element shown in Fig. 4; the variations in shape are not described in detail since they have the same characteristics which are common to all the base elements according to the invention, as may be established by the person skilled in the art. FIGS. 6+7 [0041] In a further variation of embodiment derived from the embodiment shown in Fig. 4a, the base element 310 has: -) a first spoiler 311 connected to the first flange 11 at its free end 11c and facing the second flange 13; the spoiler 311 has an outer surface 311a parallel to the vertical direction Z-Z and inner surface 311b inclined parallel to the first web 212; -) a second spoiler 313 with a substantially triangular cross-section, having a base 313a joined to the free edge of the second flange 13; the outer side 313a of the spoiler 313 is parallel to the vertical direction Z-Z and the inclined side 313b is substantially parallel to the web 212.

[0042] Fig. 7 shows exemplary embodiments with variations in the geometrical form of the base element shown in Fig. 6; the embodiments are not described in detail since they have the same characteristics which are common to all the base elements according to the invention, as may be established by the person skilled in the art.

LONGITUDINAL MEMBER

[0043] As shown in Fig. 8 it is possible to provide longitudinal members 500a-500n extending in the longitudinal direction X-X of veining 1 a and formed by the joining together of base elements 10,210,310 identical to each other (500a-5001 ), but also different (500m,500n), these being joined along the outer surface 11a, 13a of the respective base flanges 11,13 and/or the free edges parallel to the vertical direction Z-Z and in the following manner: a first pair (not necessarily formed by two identical modular base elements) joined in a mirror-image arrangement along a first direction perpendicular to the direction X-X, a second pair (not necessarily formed by two identical modular base elements and not necessarily identical to the first pair) joined along the same first direction perpendicular to the direction X-X, the two pairs being joined together in a mirror-image arrangement along the other direction perpendicular to the veining so as to form a longitudinal cavity 501 a-501 n containing four angles between flanges and theoretical webs such as to define inclined theoretical webs inclined and converging towards the centre of the cavity.

[0044] It is understood that the combinations shown are non-exhaustive exemplary embodiments of the various possibilities.

[0045] The common element which characterizes the longitudinal members 500 consists of the said internal cavity 501a-501n extending in the longitudinal direction X-X and formed by the joining together of the recesses 12a-12b; 212a-212b; 312a-312b of the different base elements 10,210,310.

[0046] The cross-section of the longitudinal cavity is approximately in the form of an hour-glass, X-shaped, I-shaped or with irregular shapes, but all of these being such as to maintain a structure with theoretical inclination webs always directed inwardly and converging towards the centre of the said cavity and designed to ensure special dynamic behavioural responses, as will be described more fully below. PANEL FIGS. 9-14 [0047] Fig. 9 shows an example of a panel 1001 according to the invention which comprises longitudinal members arranged alongside each other in one direction Y-Y of the two directions Y-Y;Z-Z perpendicular to the longitudinal direction X-X and which has X-shaped cavities 1501 extending in the longitudinal direction X-X of the veining 1a.

[0048] It is understood that the smallest size panel will comprise only two longitudinal members arranged alongside each other in one or the other of the transverse direction Y-Y or vertical direction Z-Z perpendicular to the longitudinal direction X-X of the veining 1a.

[0049] The panel will generally comprise several rows of longitudinal members arranged alongside each other, thus defining panels according to the invention with cavities arranged aligned in rows or columns along one of the two directions perpendicular to the direction X-X, each row or column being staggered, by half a cavity in the other direction perpendicular to the direction X-X, with respect to the adjacent row or column.

[0050] Fig. 10showsafurtherexampleofapanel,similar to that of Fig. 9, but completed with closing surfaces 201 applied to the opposite free surfaces 11a and 13a of the flanges 11 and 13 so as to provide a surface finish. According to preferred embodiments, these closing surfaces 201 may also be designed to function as a barrier layer/element in a direction perpendicular to the direction X-X, as will be described more fully below, or also as a layer for improving the static resistance.

[0051] Fig. 11 shows a further embodiment of a panel according to the invention with closing surfaces 201 and ducts 1251 for the air flow and/or for housing service installations such as electrical connections 1251a.

[0052] Fig. 12 shows a further embodiment of a panel with longitudinal cavities in the form of an hour-glass.

[0053] In addition to the special arrangement of the cavities it is also envisaged using a barrier element arranged perpendicularly to only one of the directions transverse to the direction of the veining 1a of the wood; by means of the barrier element and the particular cavity and web structure of the panel dimensional variations of the latter are blocked in both the senses transverse to the direction of the wood veining, as will become clearer below.

[0054] Fig. 13 shows a panel 1101, similar to the panel 1001 shown in Fig. 9, to which two barrier layers 1050 have been applied, on the opposite outer surfaces of the flanges 1011a and 1013b; in the preferred example of Fig. 13 the barrier layers are also composed of panels similar to those described in Fig. 9; it can be noted how the barrier layers 1050 are applied in directions of the veining 1051a perpendicular to the directions of the longitudinal veining 1a of the panel.

[0055] Fig. 14showsapanelwithinternalbarrierlayers 1150, namely parallel to the vertical direction Z-Z.

WALLS

[0056] Figure 15 shows an example of a building structure where the walls are made with panels 1000 according to the invention having continuous cavities extending parallel to the direction of the veining 1a and arranged rotated so as to position said cavities so that they are open in the vertical direction Z-Z; it is envisaged however also being able to provide cavities open in the horizontal direction of said wall, if required for statics-related reasons, for example in the case of floor structures.

[0057] This configuration of the panel 1000 produces therefore an important technical effect with regard to the heat conduction of the walls of the building structure: in fact, leaving aside the heat passage through the cavities, the heat flow which passes through the cross-section of the wood in the transverse direction Y-Y perpendicular to the longitudinal direction X-X of the veining (in Figure 15 corresponding to the vertical direction Z-Z) and to the joining direction of the longitudinal members, diminishes considerably since it is forced to follow a long path only across the flanges 11,13 and associated connecting webs 12,212,312.

[0058] With this configuration the heat flow from the outside to the inside and vice versa is therefore forced mainly along only the solid parts of the panel, thus being reduced and favouring an increased insulation capacity.

DEFORMATIONS

[0059] A fundamental feature of the panels according to the invention consists in the fact that the cavity and inclined web sequences give rise to a dimensional variation which is always uniform in both directions, i.e. transverse direction Y-Y and vertical direction Z-Z, perpendicular to the longitudinal direction X-X of the veining.

[0060] The webs and their joining points form within the cross-section a bar system which is highly undefined from the point of view of statics, being prone to deform when subject to the action offerees.

[0061] Leaving aside the compression orelongation of the webs under pressure due to application of an external force and allowing resilient rotation of the webs relative to each other in the nodes formed by the intersection between two consecutive inclined webs and the flange included between them, the panel and its joining points behave as follows and as illustrated in Figs. 16-18: -) based on the static situation shown in Fig. 16a in which the angle β, a and the length (a) of the flanges and the length (b) of the webs are indicated, the following occurs: ·) the influx of a transverse external force (pressure) Y-Y applied perpendicularly with respect to the veining 1 a, for example on the superficial closing side of the panel, causes not only compression of the panel in the direction of the force, but also a simultaneous compression of the panel perpendicularly with respect to the plane which contains both the force and the longitudinal direction of the veining; i.e. deformations dz and dy occur along both the respective directions Z-Z and Y-Y perpendicular to the veining, due to the modification of the angles between flanges and webs, caused by the external force.

[0062] A similar simultaneous deformation behaviour dy,dz occurs both along Y-Y and along Z-Z (Fig. 17) in the case of internal forces caused by the swelling/shrink-age of the panel due to the variations in the moisture content affecting it (or also the thermal expansion in the case of a variation in temperature); however, in this case, the flanges and webs deform simultaneously, leaving unvaried the angle Q between them (Fig. 17).

[0063] On the other hand, it may be said that, based on the fact that each web of the wooden element, in the event of shrinkage or swelling due to variations in environmental factors, shrinks or expands in a uniform manner, blocking of the movement of the wooden element in one of the directions described, perpendicular to the direction of the veining, causes in turn complete or partial blocking also in the direction (Fig. 18b), this making the entire element stable.

[0064] This also occurs even if only some parts of this wooden element are subject to varying conditions, as for example in the case where, following local infiltrations, not all the wall, but only part of it becomes damp as a result of being subject to a greater degree of moisture.

BARRIER LAYER

[0065] As a result of that mentioned above as well as the special arrangement of the cavities, the use of a barrier element applied to the panel perpendicularly with respect to only one of the directions transverse to the longitudinal direction of anisotropy or veining of the wood, as shown with reference to Figs. 10, 13 and 14 ensures that, via the barrier element and the particular recess and web structure of the panel, externally detectable dimensional variations of the structure due to shrinkage and swelling are prevented in both senses transverse to the direction of the wood veining or generally direction of anisotropy of the material.

[0066] It has also been determined that the internal structure absorbs most of the forces which are generated on the panel as a result of shrinkage and/or swelling of the wood, thus allowing the barrier element to absorb a limited force in order to keep the element stable.

[0067] Fixing of the barrier element may be performed using different methods, externally by means of combined force-fitting together with stable strapping; or internally by joining together elements using glued through-plugs made of wood or other material; it is also possible to perform pre-tensioning (with a zero or higher pre-ten-sioning force) of the elements using bars (which may also be threaded) of different types and made of different material, or using other joining means pre-tensioned transversely with respect to the direction of the veining.

[0068] The advantage of the proposed structure is that the force which acts on the barrier element is m uch smaller than that which the cross-section of the wood would lead one to assume; the element is in fact able to deform internally, without causing significant differences in the external dimensions; consequently, in order to prevent gaps or the formation of constructional gaps, a much smaller force, and no longer the total force generated by shrinkage and swelling, has to be absorbed by means of the barrier element.

[0069] By assembling several panels having the characteristics described, if necessary with a smaller thickness, rotating them so that the veining (or the direction of the webs) is arranged perpendicularly with respect to the other layers, one of more of these panels may be used as a barrier layer, further barrier layers (Fig. 13) with a different configuration thus no longer being needed. It is also possible for the surfaces to have different characteristics and be able to withstand different external agents. It is thus possible, by means of a varying surface composition and structure, to obtain reactions which may adapt to the different forces involved.

[0070] In those cases where the elements are force-fitted together with other building/constructional components which may perform the blocking orbarrierfunction, barrier layers for the panels according to the invention may be dispensed with, in view of the minimum forces acting on them. This is the case for example of panels according to the invention which are installed as wall elements with the height of one storey and which are force-fitted along their whole width together with the floor slab and floor structure.

BOARDS

[0071] As shown in Figs. 19-27 it is envisaged that, where wooden materials or similarly machinable materials are used, it is possible to obtain the panels according to the invention from boards 418-422.

[0072] A plurality of boards 419-426, arranged opposite each other in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of extension of the veining, form the panels according to the present invention, wherein the boards constitute the longitudinal joining elements for forming the longitudinal members or directly the finished panels.

[0073] According to preferred embodiments of these boards, shown in Figs. 19-27, said boards comprise several base elements 10,110,210, or suitable cut designs thereof, which are joined together along the respective outer surfaces 11a, 13a of the flanges 11,13. Figs. 19-27 also show the different machined designs obtained using cutting tools such as saws, milling cutters and the like in order to obtain the desired configurations of the boards and therefore the simple production of the panels according to the invention in the case of wood materials or similarly machinable materials.

[0074] Although notshown it is also envisaged that the joining together of several base elements 10,210,310 results in the formation of boards 419-426 which have alternating flanges 11,13 and recesses 12a,12b mutually staggered with respect to the direction perpendicular to that of the veining 1a and the opposite ends of which have a board finishing surface 201 with the function of providing static resistance to the loads, in particular perpendicular loads.

[0075] It will therefore be possible to obtain panels 1000 formed by the joining together of a plurality of boards joined together in one of the two directions which are perpendicular (transverse or vertical) relative to the veining direction so as to form panels 1000 which have rows of cavities 1021,1022, the extension of which in the transverse direction Y-Y is equal to the sum of a first and a second recess and which are staggered by half a unit with respect to the two adjacent rows, so as to form the longitudinal cavities having a cross-section which is in the form of an hour-glass, X-shaped or l-shaped.

[0076] In the case instead of materials which may be softened, it is envisaged that the panels may be made using different technologies such as extrusion along the longitudinal direction X-X and subsequent cutting and addition so as to form different sections which determine the various shapes of the panels and the associated lon gitudinal webs and recesses.

[0077] In this case it will also be possible to obtain boards from the design of a panel and by means of regular and/or irregular cutting of this design; the boards are thus still suitable for the formation of panels of varying shape.

[0078] It is also envisaged that multiple variants may be introduced during the practical implementation of the various component parts forming the subject of the present invention, e.g.: -) the recesses in the wooden elements may be separated by means of interruptions along the veining of said element, in order to prevent undesirable internal circulation of the air; similarly improved static characteristics may be obtained in the support zone by means of interruptions along the edges. By means of a partial interruption of the cavities it is possible to improve in a specific manner the static characteristics of wooden board elements for roofs or floor structures. -) the cavities in the panels may be filled entirely or partially with suitable insulating material or with the shavings resulting from the machining for forming the recesses, so as to allow an improvement in the heat insulation and fire behaviour properties; -) barrier layer with direction of the veining arranged transversely or diagonally with respect to the veining of the boards may also be inserted between said boards for example after each third or after each tenth, preferably after each fifth to seventh board; this results not only in a greater precision in the required measurements, but also a substantially greater load-bearing capacity of the elements; -) the panels may also be used as wall elements in which the boards of the self-supporting multi-layer panel are arranged horizontally; in this case the barrier layers are designed as vertical or diagonal load-bearing elements. These may be applied or inserted in the form of sheets with vertical or diagonal veining, battens or boards or other cut wood sections and force-fitted together with the panel itself. For the formation of load-bearing boards this layer may act as a ventilated-cavity surface and/or installation surface; -) the design structure of base elements, longitudinal members, boards and panels according to the invention may also be applied to natural and synthetic materials with different characteristics in one or more sizes, i.e. which are for example anisotropic with respect to the static load, shrinkage and swelling behaviour, thermal behaviour or other physical characteristics which are typical of the building sector; the boards and panels may in this case be produced using folded or corrugated boards which may be joined together by means of webs which may be made of materials differentfrom those of the boards. The production of board elements or profiled elements according to the invention in this case may also be obtained using different materials obtained by means of the extrusion technique; -) it is possible to achieve the characteristics of the elements, as described, for shrinkage and swelling of the wooden body without force-fitting together the single planks or the single boards using adhesives. In this case the elements must be compressed and consequently subjected to pre-tensioning in one of the directions transverse to the veining (implicitly causing, owing to the characteristic feature of the invention, pre-tensioning in the other direction transverse to the veining) so that, after application of the barrier layers, said layers are subject to pressure at all times and in all conditions; alternatively it is possible to reduce the moisture content of the wood of the elements by means of controlled drying so that the general conditions of the atmospheric agents, at any moment and in any condition, are defined by limited swelling compared to the assembly condition, with the result that the element is in turn subject to continuous compressive stressing; -) the joining together of the single elements by means of interlocking pressure joints, for example a series of tongues and grooves or a tenon and mortise joint, together with the tendency of the elements to relax and the dimensions to expand in both directions relative to the direction transverse to the veining following keying together of the tongues ortenons, are such that the single elements are joined together as a single combined element by means of tensile and compressive force. The wooden constructional elements thus produced behave in accordance with the principle forming the basis of the invention without the need for glued joints resistant to tensile stress.

[0079] In addition the material machining methods are of a conventional nature and performed using sawing or milling tools.

[0080] It is therefore clear how the base elements, the longitudinal members and the panels according to the invention have heat insulation, structural strength, soundproofing and heat conductivity characteristics which are substantially better than those of solid elements.

[0081] In addition, the special l-shaped, X-shaped or hour-glass like form and the arrangement of the cavities aligned in one of the two directions perpendicular to the veining of the wood and staggered relative to each other in the other perpendiculardirection, togetherwith the use of a barrier element in one of the directions transverse to the direction of the wood veining, have the effect that the shrinkage and swelling of the wood are compensated for in both directions transverse to the direction of the wood veining, with the wood shrinkage and swelling forces being mainly absorbed by the single element, thus resulting in the barrier element having to absorb less force in order to keep the element in a stable form.

[0082] In the case of panels made of wooden materials or the like preferred embodiments envisage providing cavities having a width smaller than 5 mm, preferably between 2 mm and 5 mm, flange and web thicknesses greater than about 4 cm, depending also on the type of wood, and solid-void ratios preferably of between 70%:30% and 50%:50%.
