Building Wall Structure

Abstract

A building wall structure in which pre-hung wall parts ( 1 ) that are provided in the form of slats, boards, or similar elements are joined to a solid substructure ( 3 ) forming the actual wall structure via fasteners ( 2 ). Siding elements ( 4 ) can be fixed to the pre-hung wall parts ( 1 ). At least some of the fasteners ( 2 ) are inserted at an acute angle relative to a horizontal plane (H) and are alternately inclined at least in opposite directions relative to the horizontal plane (H). The pre-hung wall parts ( 1 ) that are provided in the form of slats, boards, or similar elements form a type of truss girder ( 5 ) along with the fasteners ( 2 ) and the substructure ( 3 ).

1 . A wall structure in a building, comprising pre-hung wall parts connected via fasteners to a solid substructure to form the wall structure, on which exterior siding elements can be mounted to the pre-hung wall parts, at least some of the fasteners ( 2 ) are inserted at an acute angle in reference to a horizontal plane (H) and are inclined at least partially alternating in opposite directions in reference to the horizontal plane (H), with the pre-hung wall parts ( 1 ) and the fasteners ( 2 ) and together with the substructure ( 3 ) forming a truss girder ( 5 ). 
   
   
       2 . A wall structure according to  claim 1 , wherein the fasteners ( 2 ) extend alternating upwards and downwards and form acute angles (W 1 , W 2 ) in reference to the horizontal plane (H) and the substructure ( 3 ) and adjacent pairs of the fasteners ( 2 ) form an angle (W 3 ) that is equal to or smaller than 90°. 
   
   
       3 . A wall structure according to  claim 1 , wherein the fasteners ( 2 ) alternately comprise a first group that form an acute angle (W 4  or W 5 ) in reference to the horizontal plane (H), either pointing upwards or downwards from the substructure ( 3 ), and a second group that are located in a horizontal plane (H) so that each adjacent pair of the fasteners ( 2 ) located in a vertical direction forms an acute angle (W 7 ) equal or smaller than 45°. 
   
   
       4 . A wall structure according to  claim 1 , wherein there are a plurality of the truss girders and the fasteners ( 2 ) of each of the truss girders ( 5 ) are inserted aligned extending in a vertical plane. 
   
   
       5 . A wall structure according to  claim 1 , wherein the fasteners ( 2 ) are inserted in vertical planes (VE 1 , VE 2 ) each paired or, extending in an opposite direction, extending at an acute angle in reference to the horizontal plane (H), parallel to and at a distance from each other. 
   
   
       6 . A wall structure according to  claim 1 , wherein the fasteners ( 2 ) are screwed in at an acute angle in reference to the horizontal plane (H) or in a horizontal plane and located in a vertical plane (VE 3 , VE 4 ) forming an acute angle (W 6 ), with two of the vertical planes (VE 3 , VE 4 ) diverging or converging at an area originating from the pre-hung wall parts ( 1 ) in a direction of the substructure. 
   
   
       7 . A wall structure according to  claim 1 , wherein the fasteners ( 2 ) comprise screws, which at least at two end areas thereof are provided with threaded sections ( 8 ,  9 ). 
   
   
       8 . A wall structure according to  claim 7 , wherein the threaded sections ( 8 ,  9 ) at the two end areas of the fasteners ( 2 ) are provided with a different thread pitch. 
   
   
       9 . A wall structure according to  claim 7 , wherein the thread sections ( 8 ,  9 ) at the two end areas of the fasteners ( 2 ) are provided with the same thread pitch. 
   
   
       10 . A wall structure according to  claim 7 , wherein the fasteners ( 2 ) in the form of screws have a head with a tool receiving socket, with an exterior diameter of the head being only slightly larger than an exterior diameter of the thread sections ( 8 ) adjacent thereto. 
   
   
       11 . A wall structure according to  claim 4 , wherein between individual vertically extending ones of the truss girders ( 5 ), insulating plates or mats ( 10 ) are inserted. 
   
   
       12 . A wall structure according to  claim 1 , wherein the exterior siding elements comprise slats, boards, or plates made from wood, wood material, plastic, slate, natural stone, metal, or fiber-enforced materials. 
   
   
       13 . A wall structure according to  claim 1 , wherein plaster support plates are provided as the exterior siding elements ( 4 ). 
   
   
       14 . A wall structure according to  claim 1 , wherein the substructure ( 3 ) comprises massive wood, gluelam, plywood boards, stacked ply wood, or plywood and/or construction parts and combinations of said materials or other wooden materials. 
   
   
       15 . A wall structure according to  claim 1 , wherein the substructure ( 3 ) comprises brick, clinker, or concrete.
