Abstract
method of assembling, in the construction of a timber frame building, a building structure in which a first structural component, in the form of a truss, is connected to a second structural component such that the first structural component is supported by the second structural component in the building structure, the method comprising: when the second structural component is in situ, positioning the first component relative to the second component whereby an exposed tip of at least one fastener which has been pre-applied to one of the components before installation penetrates a timber member which the other component comprises, so as to be received into a surface of the other component, the surface being defined by said member, to preclude translational displacement of the first component in a plane parallel to the surface; and thereafter driving the or each fastener into the said other component to fix the components together.
Claims (31)
1. A method of assembling, in the construction of a timber frame building, a building structure in which a first structural component, in the form of a truss, is connected to a second structural component such that the first structural component is supported by the second structural component in the building structure, the method comprising: when the second structural component is in situ, positioning the first component relative to the second component whereby an exposed tip of at least one fastener which has been pre-applied to one of the components before installation penetrates a timber member which the other component comprises, so as to be received into a surface of the other component, the surface being defined by said member, to preclude translational displacement of the first component in a plane parallel to the surface; and thereafter driving the or each fastener into the said other component to fix the components together.
2. A method according to claim 1, wherein the positioning of the first component comprises lowering the first component and the or each tip is arranged so as to project from the first component in a direction having a downward component or to project from the second component in a direction having an upward component, so as to be received into the surface as a result of the lowering.
3. A method according to claim 1 or claim 2, wherein the positioning of the first component comprises moving it sideways and the or each tip is arranged so as to project in a direction having a sideways component, so as to be received into said surface as a result of the sideways movement of the first component.
4. A method according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the positioning of the first component comprises tilting or rotation of the first component whereby the receipt of the or each tip into said surface is effected.
5. A method according to claim 4, wherein the tilting or rotation of the first component is about a generally horizontal axis.
6. A method according to claim 4 or claim 5, wherein the first component rests against the second component during the tilting or rotation thereof.
7. A method according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the or each fastener is applied to said one of the components in a manner such that it passes through said one of the components.
8. A method according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the or each fastener is threaded and the driving thereof into said other component comprises screwing it into said other component.
9. A method according to claim 8, wherein the or each fastener taps the other component during screwing thereof into said other component.
10. A method according to claim 9, wherein the fastener is a self-tapping screw.
11. A method according to any one of claims 8 to 10, wherein the driving of the or each fastener comprises, before the screwing thereof, knocking or hammering it such that the tip thereof is at least partially embedded in said other component.
12. A method according to any one of claims 1 to 7, wherein the or each fastener comprises a nail and the driving thereof into said other component comprises knocking it into said other component.
13. A method according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein said one component comprises a timber member from which the tip of the or each fastener projects.
14. A method according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the or each fastener is applied to said one of the components such that the tip thereof protrudes from a surface of said one of the components which is to abut said surface of said other component in the building structure.
15. A method according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the truss is a roof truss.
16. A method according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the or each fastener is applied to the first component whereby said surface is a surface of the second component.
17. A method according to any one of claims 1 to 16, wherein the or each fastener is applied to the second component whereby said surface is a surface of the first component.
18. A method according to claim 17, wherein said timber member defining the surface into which the tip of the at least one fastener is received is a bottom chord or a top chord of the first component.
19. A method according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the first component comprises a hip, jack or creeper truss.
20. A method according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the second component comprises a wall structure.
21. A method according to claim 20, wherein the wall structure defines part of an internal wall in the building structure.
22. A method according to claim 20, wherein the wall structure defines part of an external wall in the building structure.
23. A method according to any one of claims 20 to 22, wherein the wall structure comprises a frame having a top plate defining said surface.
24. A method according to any one of claims 1 to 19, wherein the second component comprises a truss.
25. A method according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein, after the tip of the or each fastener is received in said surface, the first member is moved such that said tip of the or each fastener contacts said other member at a location where said fastener is to be driven into said other member to fix the members together, and thence so driven.
26. A method according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the or each fastener comprises a shaft, which is driven into said other component when the components are fixed together, and a narrow leading end portion, on which said tip is defined, which is narrower than said shaft and which is received into the surface when said tip is received into the surface, the narrow leading end portion having an exterior face extending around it which is generally parallel to a longitudinal axis of the fastener, whereby, when said portion has been received into the surface, loading on the fastener which is perpendicular to said axis forces said exterior face against material in said other component such that there is little or no force component parallel to the axis exerted on the fastener or other component resulting from the loading.
27. A method according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein said tip is pointy, or convergent in a direction from a trailing end of the fastener to a leading end of the fastener, whereby receipt thereof into the surface is facilitated.
28. A method according to any one of the preceding claims, including positioning the first component whereby, at a location remote from said fastener(s), an exposed tip of at least one further fastener applied to one of the first component and another structural component which is to form part of the building structure is received into a surface of the other of those two components or into a recess in that surface, such that it precludes translational displacement of the first component in a plane parallel to that surface, and thereafter driving the or each fastener into said other of said two components to fix said two components together.
29. A method according to claim 28, wherein said other structural component is said second component.
30. The building structure formed via a method according to any one of the preceding claims.
31. A method according to claim 1, the method being substantially as hereinbefore described with reference to
