Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to a precast building material which is applicable for construction.


Description of the Prior Art

A conventional building is built from reinforced concrete to achieve reinforcement and fire resistance. However, it is required to provide foundation and beams, erect steel bars, set ganged forms and have grouting, thus causing building inconvenience and difficulty, high construction cost, and long building time.


To overcome above-mentioned problems, a modular house has been developed in three types as follows:


1. The modular house is made of wood materials to obtain thermal insulation, sound absorption, moisture absorption, and natural environmental protection in a green technology. But the wood materials have to be shipped to a construction site and are cut, connected, and nailed, thus having troublesome assembly, fragile disassembly, no recycling, poor reinforcement, security and fire resistance, short service life, and danger.


2. When the modular house is a container house, it is easy to construct and connect with the other containers. Yet, it is easy to cause corrosion and rust, so coating anti-rust paints is required. Moreover, the container house has poor appearance and air circulation.


3. When the modular house is a metal-sheet house, it is built quickly. Nevertheless, it is broken easily because of typhoon, wind, and heavy rain. In addition, the metal-sheet house absorbs heat easily and dissipates heat slowly to cause a high temperature. Also, the metal-sheet house is rusty and to discolor the coating paint easily, thus repeatedly coating paint is inevitable.


The present invention has arisen to mitigate and/or obviate the afore-described disadvantages.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The primary objective of the present invention is to provide a precast building material which is pre-casting formed in a factory and is moved to a construction site so as to build a house easily at a low construction cost, thus accelerating construction time, applying for various houses, and recycling the precast building material.


Another objective of the present invention is to provide a precast building material which reinforces the house and facilitates security, fire and heat resistance, noise isolation, and seismic performance.


To achieve above-mentioned objectives, a precast building material provided by the present invention contains: a substrate, a peripheral frame, a metal reinforcement unit, and a concrete layer.


The substrate is formed in a parallelogram shape and is detachable.


The peripheral frame is mounted around a peripheral side of the substrate so that an accommodation chamber is defined between the peripheral frame and the substrate. The peripheral frame includes multiple first connection rails, and a respective first connection rail has at least one first slot defined thereon. At least two sides of the peripheral frame are screwed with multiple second connection rails, and a respective second rail has at least one second slot defined thereon, the peripheral frame includes multiple convex engagement portions fixed on the at least two sides thereof and multiple concave engagement portions. A respective concave engagement portion mates with a respective convex engagement portion, the respective first connection rail has multiple first locking orifices defined thereon, and the respective second connection rail has multiple second locking orifices formed thereon.


The metal reinforcement unit is accommodated in the accommodation chamber and is welded with an inner wall of the accommodation chamber, the metal reinforcement unit includes multiple rebars, and the multiple rebars are intersected with one another.


The concrete layer is filled with the accommodation chamber to cover the metal reinforcement unit, such that the concrete layer is connected with the peripheral frame and the metal reinforcement unit and is removable from the substrate.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

The present invention will be clearer from the following description when viewed together with the accompanying drawings, which show, for purpose of illustrations only, a preferred embodiment in accordance with the present invention.


With reference to FIGS. 1-3, a precast building material 1 according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention comprises: a substrate 10, a peripheral frame 20, a metal reinforcement unit 30, and a concrete layer 40.


The substrate 10 is formed in a parallelogram shape and is detachable, wherein the substrate 10 is made of metal, for example, the substrate 10 is formed in a rectangle shape and is made of steel or plastic aluminum.


The peripheral frame 20 is mounted around a peripheral side of the substrate 10 so that an accommodation chamber A0 is defined between the peripheral frame 20 and the substrate 10, wherein the peripheral frame 20 includes multiple first connection rails 21, and a respective first connection rail 21 has at least one first slot 211 defined thereon, wherein at least two sides of the peripheral frame 20 are screwed with multiple second connection rails 22 by using multiple screw bolts 50 and multiple nuts 60, wherein the multiple second connection rails 22 are not opposite to each other, and a respective second rail 22 has at least one second slot 221 defined thereon, and the peripheral frame 20 includes multiple first engagement portions 23 fixed on the at least two sides thereof and multiple second engagement portions 24, wherein a respective second engagement portion 24 mates with a respective first engagement portion 23. The respective first connection rail 21 has multiple first locking orifices 212 defined thereon, and the respective second connection rail 22 has multiple second locking orifices 222 formed thereon. In this embodiment, two opposite sides of the peripheral frame 20 and two second connection rails 22 are parallelly connected to the substrate 10 by ways of the multiple screw bolts 50 and the multiple nuts 60, and two first engagement portions 23 and two second engagement portions 24 are engaged with one another and are fixed with the two opposite sides of the peripheral frame 20 parallel to the substrate 10 respectively, wherein a cross section of a connection of the respective first engagement portion 23 and the respective second engagement portion 24 is in an H shape, a U shape or other shapes.


The metal reinforcement unit 30 is accommodated in the accommodation chamber A0 and is welded with an inner wall of the accommodation chamber A0, wherein the metal reinforcement unit 30 includes multiple rebars 31, and the multiple rebars 31 are intersected with one another.


The concrete layer 40 is made of a mixture of cements, sands, stones, and waters and paves the accommodation chamber A0 to cover the metal reinforcement unit 30, such that the concrete layer 40 is connected with the peripheral frame 20 and the metal reinforcement unit 30 and is removable from the substrate 10.

With reference to FIGS. 15 and 16, in another embodiment, respective first connection rail 21 of a respective peripheral frame 20 has a coupling sheet 26 extending outward therefrom, and the coupling sheet 26 has at least one securing hole 261 defined thereon and configured to connect the coupling sheet 26 on a support rack 70, thus fixing the respective precast building material 1 on the support rack 70.


Therefore, the precast building material of the present invention has advantages as follows:


1. The precast building material 1 is pre-casting formed in a factory and is moved to a construction site so as to build the house easily at a low construction cost, thus accelerating construction time, applying for various houses, and recycling the precast building material.


2. The precast building material 1 reinforces the house and facilitates security, fire and heat resistance, noise isolation, and seismic performance.


While various embodiments in accordance with the present invention have been shown and described, it is clear to those skilled in the art that further embodiments may be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.
