Abstract
A prefabricated construction wall assembly comprising: a frame structure having a first thermal expansion coefficient; and a panel configured for covering at least a majority of the a face of the frame structure, said panel having a second thermal expansion coefficient different from the first thermal expansion coefficient, and a solid-surface exterior face exposed to an exterior of the wall assembly and an interior face connected to the face of the frame structure so as to withstand the thermal structural differences between the frame structure and the exterior face.
Claims18
A prefabricated construction wall assembly comprising:
- a frame structure having a first face, a second face and a frame wall extending therebetween and including an outermost frame edge at least partially lying in a frame reference plane which is perpendicular to the first face and to the second face;
- and
- a panel configured for covering at least a majority of the second face of the frame structure, having a solid-surface exterior face, an interior face connected to the second face of the frame structure and a panel wall extending therebetween and including an outermost panel edge facing the frame reference plane, said panel edge being spaced from the frame reference plane thereby creating a side gap;
- said panel being expandable towards the frame reference plane, so that at least the panel edge is displaced into at least some of said side gap,
- wherein said second face of the frame structure comprises a sub portion facing the side gap and configured for being mounted to a frame structure of another prefabricated construction wall assembly.
A prefabricated construction wall assembly comprising:
- a frame structure having a first face, a second face and a frame wall extending therebetween and including an outermost frame edge at least partially lying in a frame reference plane which is perpendicular to the first face and to the second face;
- and
- a panel configured for covering at least a majority of the second face of the frame structure, having a solid-surface exterior face, an interior face connected to the second face of the frame structure and a panel wall extending therebetween and including an outermost panel edge facing the frame reference plane, said panel edge being spaced from the frame reference plane thereby creating a side gap;
- said panel being expandable towards the frame reference plane, so that at least the panel edge being displaced into at least some of said side gap, and
- a detachably attachable plate having a solid-surface exterior face and an interior face comprising at least one magnet or a metal plate having ferromagnetic characteristics, configured to be detachably attached to the frame structure.
