SLAB CONSTRUCTION SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONSTRUCTING MULTI-STORY BUILDINGS USING PRE-MANUFACTURED STRUCTURES

摘要

The present invention integrates the use of pre-manufactured structures with minimal on-site installation and lift-slab construction to achieve the construction of multi-story buildings. The pre-manufactured structures are designed to be readily integrated with both horizontal and vertically adjacent building components, including lift-slab components, so that multiple building stories may be readily and securely stacked, one on top of the other. The present invention advantageously permits top-down lift-slab construction for multi-story buildings. The present invention also provides for the development of flexible design plans for institutional, residential, office and other types of buildings. The present invention advantageously provides for easier, more efficient, faster, cheaper, safer, higher quality and more consistent, environmentally advantaged, energy-efficient, easier to maintain, intelligently designed, and customizable multi-story building construction.

1. A method of constructing a multi-story building comprising:
preparing a foundation at a building site; installing load-bearing structural framing around the perimeter of the foundation; preparing a roof slab and one or more floor slabs; hoisting the roof slab into place using a jack system supported by the load-bearing structural framing; securing the roof slab; installing one or more pre-manufactured non-weight bearing walls onto a floor slab; hoisting the floor slab into place using a jack system supported by the load-bearing structural framing; and securing the floor slab.
