BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to new method of moving up an entire house or building. Employing current invention, an engineered pick up and lifting assembly apparatus and supporting devices.
The end product results and benefits of current invention will be reflected in millions of existing older houses or dwellings getting an innovation by a process as revealed in this application.
This current invention will generate millions of jobs nationwide in the home innovation sector and revive economic activities in the construction industry.
Implementing current invention will results in increase or double the floor area of existing house by moving to temporary relocation with in property. Build on vacated lot similar size new house walls and partitions only on concrete slab. When desired improvements are done. A mobile Crane to lift up the older house to move over on top of newly built first floor. A mix newly built two story house, when final completion look new includes ground works.
Innovation projects will provide local and state government increase real estate assessment and results in increase in real estate taxes.
The success of implementation current invention is possible with the help of the building supporting devices incorporated as part of the invention which give strength & stability of the structure in the move up operation. Also current invention provide update of old house to new building code. Significant in providing house protection for storm-seismic activities and roof also wall stability. The devices added will make the house stronger and provide longer life span to the building.
Prior Art mentioned about prefabricated or manufactured homes transport problems resolved. Another talks about adding a room in the second floor of a house. This is a complex problems that accomplish little. The current invention addresses more beneficial issues that will result in converting old houses to new uses. Provide more values and productivity to the properties.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF INVENTION
To describe briefly in accordance with Apparatus Embodiments. The embodiment with sliding adjustable joint is adoptable for smaller houses or buildings. Whereas the apparatus with the expandable and extendable embodiment is adoptable for heavier and larger houses or buildings. Other apparatus configuration can be set up using combinations of both embodiments as shown on FIG. 8 item # 17 a frame joint connector device.
Configuration on FIG. 8 item # 17 called Multi Unit joint Connection can be modified with their corresponding attachments to be used in Pipeline or Cable laying operations. Also it can be use with modified attachments in Environmental Clean up operations in waterways; rivers and streams other recovery operations.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
There are eight drawing sheets submitted:
FIG. 1 Perspective view of the sliding Joint frame embodiments
FIG. 2 Perspective view of expandable and extendable frame embodiments
FIG. 3 Detail drawings of sliding joint connections item # 2 element holds the pick up points for lifting the house and serve to join and hold together the frames.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Consists of (4) Frames and Supporting Devices
FIG. 1 is showing a pick up frame consists of beams item #3 and item # 4 and a sliding joint connector item # 2 that holds the frame together with hooks at pick up pointing upwards together with cables #1 to tie to the mobile Crane boom. The connector is capable of sliding and braking at pre-determine spot to fit & secure the house to be move up.
FIG. 2 Another pick up frame consists of extendable & expandable beams item # 29, items # 32 and item # 31 with multiple hook up points items # 30 both frame members.
Beam item #33 has two pin holes to coincide with pin holes at item beam # 32 pins serves locking device to hold beams. At beam item # 29 are provided with downward hooks. At beam item # 31 has two hooks pointing upward serves as pick up points for the frame to meet cables going to the Crane boom hook up.
FIG. 3 Lifting frames serves both FIG. 1 & FIG. 2 in different capacities, Lifting frame FIG. 1 consists of beam items # 7 & beam item # 27 and indirectly metal corner bracket item # 10 & item # 9 the two serve well in the stability during move up operation by securing house from movement and collapse during the move up operations. Lifting elements are served by item # 6 the metal wire mesh harness that provide cable attachment to tie cable on pick up hooks pointing downward at pick up points at item # 2 the connector. Critical of the lifting operations are the supporting devices on item #27 & item #34 on FIG. 1 and items #37 & items # 34 on FIG. 2 and all multiple locations to supporting the the girders from fulling apart during lifting, they are also supported by items # shown FIG. 6, the Floor-Girder, Floor supports and Tie down items at multiple locations under the house or building for move up operations.
Either embodiments are detachable capable of reconfiguration useful for other pick up lifting objectives. Works underdevelopments to use in pipeline, cable operations and also for environmental clean up operations and recovery. FIG. 8 item #17 Multi unit Joint Connection for current objectives on multiple combination use.
FIG. 4 Storm-Seismic Structural Frame consists of:
- a) Wall hold down item #16FIG. 8 is a metal angle strap with nail holes multiple locations at top and bottom of old building walls, where anchor rods passes through to act as vertical member of the frame. Structural nails use to tie wall and metal rod.
- b) Anchor tie rod item # 18FIG. 8 (prior art) located at corners of building or house. This rods are embedded inside wall frames and runs continues top of the corner of wall.
- c) Square metal washer with closing nut, where anchor rods end located at corners top of walls see item # 19FIG. 1
- d) Turnbucle (prior art) item # 20 connecting anchor bolt item #22 metal rod item # 18
All elements, parts and devices associated with lifting operation will conform to the rigging manual of the Crane Institute of America procedure & specifications. Including all Prior Arts mentioned in my application.
