Definitions

  • This invention relates to an improved multi-storied building construction that is characterized by the use of a plurality of parallel, vertically-spaced horizontal truss means that extend longitudinally through the central portion of the building and are supported inter-mediate their ends by vertical central core pillar means.
  • the building includes a plurality of vertically-spaced reinforced concrete fioor slabs successive ones of which are connected at their longitudinal central portions with the upper and lower chords of the main truss means, respectively, whereby the lateral free ends of the floor slabs extend laterally outwardly from opposite sides of the main truss means in a cantilevered manner.
  • a primary object of the invention is to provide a building construction having central pillar means which support the various floor slabs by means of horizontal main trusses that extend in the longitudinal direction of the building. Successive floor slabs are carriedin a centrally-supported cantilevered manner-by the upper and lower chords, respectively, of the horizontal main trusses with the result that additional support-free usable space is provided between alternate stories of the building.
  • the successive floors may have different ceiling heights and/ or floor breadths, thus permitting customizing of the building to the needs of the tenant.
  • the central core pillar construction makes it possible to successively form the respective reinforced concrete floor slabs from the top of the building downward. Consequently, upon formation of the upper floor slabs, construction of the lower floor slabs may proceed regardless of weather conditions.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a building structure having large-span floors the longitudinal central portions of which are supported solely by horizontal main truss means connected with vertical central pillar means, whereby the use of additional supporting columns arranged outside the core pillars is avoided, thus affording a maximum support-free usable floor area.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a multistoried building construction of non-circular symmetrical configuration and including a framework structure having the greatest horizontal rigidity in that direction in which the greatest horizontal forces (wind pressure forces, for example) are developed. Consequently, the need for additional stiffening structural members such as windbracings or the like, .is avoided.

  • FIGURE 2 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional view taken along line 2--2 of FIGURE 1;
  • FIGURE 3 is an enlarged fragmentary side elevational view of the components shown in FIGURE 2;
  • FIGURES 4 and 5 are sectional views taken along lines 4-4 and 5-5, respectively, of FIGURE 1;
  • FIGURE 6 is an enlarged fragmentary detailed sectional view taken along line 66 of FIGURE 5;
  • FIGURE 7 is a somewhat schematic horizontal sectional view similar to FIGURE 5 of another embodiment of building construction having single central pillar means;
  • FIGURES 8 and 9 are somewhat schematic horizontal sectional views of two embodiments of multi-pillar constructions.
  • FIGURE 10 is a detailed perspective view of the upper portion of the building construction of FIGURE 1.
  • the building framework includes central core pillar means including a .pair of spaced vertical pillars 2, 2' that are secured at their lower ends in the building foundation.
  • central core pillar means including a .pair of spaced vertical pillars 2, 2' that are secured at their lower ends in the building foundation.
  • a plurality of parallel, vertically spaced main truss means that extend longitudinally through the central portion of the building.
  • Each of the main truss means comprises a pair of parallel, horizontally spaced trusses 3, 3' having heights that correspond with the respective ceiling heights of the various floors.
  • the main trusses 3, 3' are secured to the pillars 2, 2, respectively, and include upper and lower chords.
  • Pairs of floor slabs 1 and 1' are connected at their central portions with the upper and lower chords, respectively, of the main truss pairs.
  • the main trusses have level upper and lower surfaces and are preferably formed from profile steel, steel tubes, sheet metal, or reinforced concrete. If desired they may be prefabricated prior to connection with the pillars.
  • the upper and lower floor slabs 1 and 1' include, respectively, body portions 5 and 5 (that may be formed of reinforced concrete) and floor trusses 6 and 6 (that may be formed as solid webs, if desired).
  • Slab 1 is rigidly connected at its center with the upper chords 3a, 3a of the main trusses 3 and 3', respectively, and slab 1' is rigidly connected with the lower chords 3b and 3b.
  • the floor trusses 6 and 6' have horizontal upper surfaces upon which the floor is laid.
  • the lateral extremities of body portions 5 and 5 and the lower surfaces of the floor trusses are upwardly inclined relative to the horizontal. Consequently, at each side the floor slabs overhang the main trusses 3, 3', and the slab loads are transferred to the central pillars 2, 2' via the main trusses.
  • the pillars 2, 2' which preferably consist of sections 2a, 2b and 2a, 2b of reinforced concrete construction formed by conventional sliding or climbing mold techniques, are provided at their adjacent and remote surfaces with lateral extensions 7 for supporting the horizon? tal main trusses 3, 3' and the edge beams 8, respectively.
  • the web thicknesses of the pillars are so selected that through proper reinforcing of the floor slabs, the development of rupturing shearing stresses in the pillars is avoided.
  • the support means 7 for supporting the edge beams 8 may be in the form of vertical ribs the arrangement of which corresponds with the greatest wall stresses.
  • the horizontal main trusses 3, 3 and the edge beams 8 are supported in openings in, or protecting flanges on, the pillar walls.
  • pillars 2, 2 of trapezoidal cross-section the smaller dimensions of which are arranged outermost as shown in FIGURES 4 and 5.
  • the pillars support horizontal edge beams 8 (of optional height) adjacent the free ends of the floor slabs.
  • these beams are formed of steel or reinforced concrete and are hollow.
  • the respective edge beams may be raised (by suitable lifting means such as hydraulic jacks), from their supports on the pillars to positions in which they support the molds within which the floor slabs are cast.
  • the edge beams Upon hardening of the slabs, the edge beams are lowered to their illustrated positions.
  • the beams may then be permanently secured in place for use as functional building elements (for example, as heating or air conditioning conduits).
  • these edge beams may be designed to receive non-symmetrical loads from the floor slabs so that torsional stresses in the main trusses are diminished or avoided.
  • the pillars 80, 80 support the horizontal main trusses 81, 81' and the angularly arranged edge beams 82.
  • the end beams 83 are supported by the beams 82 and the trusses 81, 81'.
  • a plurality of pillars 91, 91, 92, 92', 93 and 93' are so arranged that the respective main trusses 94, 94' and the edge beams 95 carried thereby are colinear and spaced via expansion joint means.
  • the main trusses 101, 101' and the edge beams 102 are continuous and are supported by a series of pillars 103, 103, 104, 104', 105 and 105'.
  • the floor slabs may be formed from the top of the building downward by progressive lowering of the floor slab molds. Simultaneous casting of floor slabs at various levels of the building may also be accomplished if desired. As shown in FIGURE 1, each of the slabs is support-free at its ends. Consequently, an appreciable amount of Window space may be provided in the building outer shell. Furthermore, the main trusses 3 and 3' extend only between alternate pairs of floors, thus providing additional useful space between the remaining floors. It is apparent that by the construction of the present invention, the various stories may be given arbitrary ceiling heights and the floors may be given differing breadths in accordance with the needs of the tenant.
