CA 2403408

A corner of a timber building frame (10) having spaced studs (11), top plates (12) and bottom plates (13). Bottom plates (13) are located in this case on an on-ground slab (14), noggings (15) retain the studs (11) in their proper spaced relation. To prevent the frames from moving in response to wind while the frame is under construction and also afterwards to resist movement in the event of earthquakes or high winds, bracing panels (16) comprise an elongated panel dimensioned for location between adjacent vertical studs (11) and between the top and bottom plates (12) and (13), each panel has opposed ends (17 and 18) and opposed sides (19 and 20) and an intermediate portion between the sides shown generally at (21), the intermediate portion includes diamond shaped strengthening sections (22) displaced laterally out of the plane of the panel.

Cette invention a trait à un coin de bâti de construction en bois (10) possédant des montants séparés (11), des plaques supérieures (12) et des plaques d'assise (13). Ces dernières (13) se trouvent sur une dalle au sol (14) et des hourdages (15) maintiennent séparés les montants (11), afin d'empêcher que les bâtis ne se déplacent du fait du vent, lors de leur construction, et de faire en sorte, par la suite, qu'ils restent immobiles en cas de tremblement de terre ou de vents forts. Les panneaux de renforcement (16) comportent un panneau allongé dont les dimensions leur permettent de se placer entre les montants verticaux adjacents (11) ainsi qu'entre les plaques supérieures (12) et les plaques d'assise (13), chaque panneau ayant des extrémités (17 et 18) et des côtés opposés (19 et 20) ainsi qu'une partie intermédiaire située entre les côtés, montrés généralement en 21. Cette partie intermédiaire comporte des pièces de renfort en forme de diamant (22) déplacées latéralement par rapport au plan du panneau.
