Definitions
- the present invention relates to a construction element making it possible, for example, to build a wall or a vertical wall.
- the document US3885363 A describes a construction element comprising a preformed insulating insert placed in a cavity of a concrete frame.
- Such construction elements can be used to build a wall by assembling them with mortar for example. This assembly requires precision so that the construction elements are well aligned and time to place the mortar and also because of this precision.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a construction element that is easy and quick to assemble, and does not require the installation of mortar.
- the block when two frames are superimposed so that the cavities are aligned, the upper end of the block can be engaged in the cavity of the frame above while the lower end of the block can be engaged in the cavity of the frame below.
- the block itself serves as a means of fixing and alignment between the construction element and a second element of identical construction. It is therefore not necessary to put mortar between two superimposed construction elements.
- the fixing between two superimposed construction elements is particularly solid. We can consider that the two frames are fitted snugly onto the block.
- each block can be retracted as much as possible into the frame during transport, in order to reduce the transport volume and for the block to be at least partially protected by the frame during transport and on the site, before construction.
- the block remains blocked in the cavity by lateral mechanical compression when it is not subjected to any pressure in a first direction, but it moves relative to the frame when it is subjected to external pressure in the first direction.
- the block is intended to be fitted snugly into the cavity.
- the first direction is preferably a vertical direction.
- the block can for example be made of a compressible material or have a surface structure allowing this movement under pressure and blocking in the absence of pressure.
- the block is such that the action of a force causes it to slide in the cavity, but if it is not subject to forces other than gravity it is stuck immovable in the cavity.
- human force is sufficient to slide the block into the frame.
- external pressure is pressure sufficient to move the block within the cavity.
- the force corresponding to the external pressure is greater than the force of gravity, so that the block remains immobilized by the frame when it is only subjected to the action of gravity.
- the external pressure is preferably a pressure in the first direction.
- the construction element is arranged to weigh less than 20 kg, more preferably less than 15 kg.
- a prototype of a construction element measuring 300 mm x 300 mm x 300 mm in which the frame is made of OSB and the block is made of expanded polystyrene weighs approximately 4 kg.
- the frame is preferably an object formed of a plurality of plane walls parallel to the first direction, so as to delimit the cavity in any direction perpendicular to the first direction.
- Each wall can for example be formed from a panel.
- the frame is preferably free of grooves on its exterior surface.

- the walls of the frame are for example of a thickness between 10 and 30 mm, preferably around 18 mm.
- the frame can for example be cubic.
- One function of the frame is to provide the exterior walls of the wall. It also makes it possible to permanently fix several construction elements together so as to form removable modules in relation to each other. A wall can thus be built by placing modules offset from each other, for example staggered.
- the frame is preferably formed of a thermal insulating material.
- the upper opening of the cavity is located on an upper end of the frame and the lower opening of the cavity is located on a lower end of the frame.
- the upper opening of the cavity is identical to the lower opening of the cavity.
- the block is preferably a solid and solid object.
- the block is preferably formed in a homogeneous and isotropic material.
- the block is thermally insulating.
- the block may for example be made of or include expanded polystyrene, graphitized expanded polystyrene, or polyurethane foam.
- THE block can for example be in one or more material(s) having a Young's modulus greater than 1.0 GPa, preferably between 2.0 and 4.0 GPa, more preferably between 2.5 and 3.5 GPa.
- the block is rigid enough to block the frame when partially engaged in the frame cavity.
- the block is preferably made of a flame-resistant material.

- the width of the block is preferably equal to its depth.
- One function of the block is to form the male part of the arrangement by nesting while the frames form the female parts. Another function of the block is to provide excellent thermal and sound insulation.
- the cavity and the block are such that the block can enter the cavity through its lower opening and exit through its upper opening. Thus, it is possible to completely slide the block completely out of the cavity.

- the absolute value of the difference between the lateral extent of the block and the corresponding lateral extent of the cavity is preferably less than 1% of the lateral extent of the block, more preferably less than 0.5% of the lateral extent of the block.
- the block may be sufficiently compressible laterally so that its lateral extent decreases when it is engaged, at least partially, in the cavity.
- the difference, in absolute value, between the width of the cavity and the width of the block measured when the block is outside the cavity is less than 3 mm, preferably less than 2 mm, more preferably less than 1 mm and/or the difference, in absolute value, between the depth of the cavity and the depth of the block measured when the block is outside the cavity is less than 3 mm, preferably less than 2 mm, more preferably less than 1 mm.
- the upper end of the block is chamfered and/or corners of the upper end of the block are rounded.
- This chamfer makes it possible to reduce the width and/or depth of the block at its upper end in order to be able to easily enter the block into the cavity through the lower opening of the frame, particularly if the lateral dimension of the block outside the cavity is close to the corresponding lateral dimension of the cavity.
- the chamfer can, for example, be approximately 1 cm.

Description
La présente invention concerne un élément de construction permettant par exemple de construire un mur ou une paroi verticale.The present invention relates to a construction element making it possible, for example, to build a wall or a vertical wall.
Le document
Un objet de la présente invention est de fournir un élément de construction facile et rapide à assembler, et ne nécessitant pas de pose de mortier.An object of the present invention is to provide a construction element that is easy and quick to assemble, and does not require the installation of mortar.
L'invention propose un élément de construction comprenant :
- un cadre comprenant une cavité débouchant par une ouverture supérieure et une ouverture inférieure, et
- un bloc agencé pour se mouvoir selon une première direction dans la cavité sous l'action d'une pression extérieure et à rester bloqué au moins partiellement dans la cavité en l'absence de pression extérieure,
- a frame comprising a cavity opening through an upper opening and a lower opening, and
- a block arranged to move in a first direction in the cavity under the action of an external pressure and to remain blocked at least partially in the cavity in the absence of external pressure,
Dans la présente invention, lorsque deux cadres sont superposés de façon à ce que les cavités soient alignées, l'extrémité supérieure du bloc peut être engagée dans la cavité du cadre du dessus tandis que l'extrémité inférieure du bloc peut être engagée dans la cavité du cadre du dessous. Ainsi, le bloc lui-même sert de moyen de fixation et d'alignement entre l'élément de construction et un deuxième élément de construction identique. Il n'est donc pas nécessaire de mettre du mortier entre deux éléments de construction superposés.In the present invention, when two frames are superimposed so that the cavities are aligned, the upper end of the block can be engaged in the cavity of the frame above while the lower end of the block can be engaged in the cavity of the frame below. Thus, the block itself serves as a means of fixing and alignment between the construction element and a second element of identical construction. It is therefore not necessary to put mortar between two superimposed construction elements.
Comme le bloc est bloqué dans la cavité lorsqu'aucune force autre que la gravité ne s'exerce dessus, la fixation entre deux éléments de construction superposés est particulièrement solide. On peut considérer que les deux cadres sont emboîtés de façon ajustée sur le bloc.As the block is blocked in the cavity when no force other than gravity is exerted on it, the fixing between two superimposed construction elements is particularly solid. We can consider that the two frames are fitted snugly onto the block.
Le fait que le bloc puisse être déplacé dans le cadre donne de la flexibilité sur la position relative du bloc par rapport au cadre. En outre, cela permet que chaque bloc soit rentré au maximum dans le cadre lors du transport, afin de diminuer le volume de transport et que le bloc soit au moins partiellement protégé par le cadre lors du transport et sur le chantier, avant la construction.The fact that the block can be moved within the frame gives flexibility on the relative position of the block in relation to the frame. In addition, this allows each block to be retracted as much as possible into the frame during transport, in order to reduce the transport volume and for the block to be at least partially protected by the frame during transport and on the site, before construction.
Le bloc reste bloqué dans la cavité par compression mécanique latérale lorsqu'il n'est soumis à aucune pression selon une première direction, mais il se déplace par rapport au cadre lorsqu'il est soumis à une pression extérieure selon la première direction. Le bloc est prévu pour être inséré de façon ajustée dans la cavité. Lorsque qu'un mur est construit avec l'élément de construction, la première direction est de préférence une direction verticale.The block remains blocked in the cavity by lateral mechanical compression when it is not subjected to any pressure in a first direction, but it moves relative to the frame when it is subjected to external pressure in the first direction. The block is intended to be fitted snugly into the cavity. When a wall is constructed with the construction element, the first direction is preferably a vertical direction.
Le bloc peut par exemple être dans un matériau compressible ou avoir une structure de surface permettant ce mouvement sous pression et blocage en l'absence de pression.The block can for example be made of a compressible material or have a surface structure allowing this movement under pressure and blocking in the absence of pressure.
Le bloc est tel que l'action d'une force le fait coulisser dans la cavité, mais s'il ne subit d'autres forces que la gravité il est coincé de façon immobile dans la cavité. De préférence, la force humaine est suffisante pour faire coulisser le bloc dans le cadre.The block is such that the action of a force causes it to slide in the cavity, but if it is not subject to forces other than gravity it is stuck immovable in the cavity. Preferably, human force is sufficient to slide the block into the frame.
Dans le cadre du présent document, une « pression extérieure » est une pression suffisante pour déplacer le bloc dans la cavité. La force correspondant à la pression extérieure est supérieure à la force de gravité, de façon à ce que le bloc reste immobilisé par le cadre quand il n'est soumis qu'à la seule action de la gravité. La pression extérieure est préférentiellement une pression selon la première direction.For the purposes of this document, "external pressure" is pressure sufficient to move the block within the cavity. The force corresponding to the external pressure is greater than the force of gravity, so that the block remains immobilized by the frame when it is only subjected to the action of gravity. The external pressure is preferably a pressure in the first direction.
De préférence, l'élément de construction est agencé pour peser moins de 20 kg, plus préférentiellement moins de 15 kg. Par exemple, un prototype d'un élément de construction faisant 300 mm x 300 mm x 300 mm dans lequel le cadre est en OSB et le bloc en polystyrène expansé, fait environ 4 kg.Preferably, the construction element is arranged to weigh less than 20 kg, more preferably less than 15 kg. For example, a prototype of a construction element measuring 300 mm x 300 mm x 300 mm in which the frame is made of OSB and the block is made of expanded polystyrene, weighs approximately 4 kg.
Le cadre est de préférence un objet formé d'une pluralité de parois planes parallèles à la première direction, de façon à délimiter la cavité dans toute direction perpendiculaire à la première direction. Chaque paroi peut par exemple être formée d'un panneau. Le cadre est de préférences dénué de rainures sur sa surface extérieure.The frame is preferably an object formed of a plurality of plane walls parallel to the first direction, so as to delimit the cavity in any direction perpendicular to the first direction. Each wall can for example be formed from a panel. The frame is preferably free of grooves on its exterior surface.

Le cadre peut par exemple faire entre 100 et 800 mm de profondeur, préférentiellement environ 300 mm. Le cadre peut par exemple faire entre 100 et 800 mm de largeur, préférentiellement environ 300 mm. Les parois du cadre sont par exemple d'une épaisseur entre 10 et 30 mm, préférentiellement environ 18 mm. Le cadre peut par exemple être cubique.The frame can for example be between 100 and 800 mm in height, preferably around 300 mm. The frame can for example be between 100 and 800 mm deep, preferably around 300 mm. The frame can for example be between 100 and 800 mm wide, preferably around 300 mm. The walls of the frame are for example of a thickness between 10 and 30 mm, preferably around 18 mm. The frame can for example be cubic.
Une fonction du cadre est de fournir les parois extérieures du mur. Il permet aussi de fixer durablement plusieurs éléments de construction ensemble de façon à former des modules amovibles les uns par rapport aux autres. Un mur peut ainsi être construit en plaçant des modules en décalage les uns par rapport aux autres, par exemple en quinconce.One function of the frame is to provide the exterior walls of the wall. It also makes it possible to permanently fix several construction elements together so as to form removable modules in relation to each other. A wall can thus be built by placing modules offset from each other, for example staggered.
Le cadre est préférentiellement formé d'un matériau isolant thermique.The frame is preferably formed of a thermal insulating material.
De préférence, l'ouverture supérieure de la cavité est située sur une extrémité supérieure du cadre et l'ouverture inférieure de la cavité est située sur une extrémité inférieure du cadre. De préférence, l'ouverture supérieure de la cavité et identique à l'ouverture inférieure de la cavité.Preferably, the upper opening of the cavity is located on an upper end of the frame and the lower opening of the cavity is located on a lower end of the frame. Preferably, the upper opening of the cavity is identical to the lower opening of the cavity.

Le bloc est de préférence dans un matériau résistants aux flammes.The block is preferably a solid and solid object. The block is preferably formed in a homogeneous and isotropic material. The block is thermally insulating. The block may for example be made of or include expanded polystyrene, graphitized expanded polystyrene, or polyurethane foam. THE block can for example be in one or more material(s) having a Young's modulus greater than 1.0 GPa, preferably between 2.0 and 4.0 GPa, more preferably between 2.5 and 3.5 GPa. The block is rigid enough to block the frame when partially engaged in the frame cavity. The block is preferably made of a flame-resistant material.
Le bloc s'étend préférentiellement entre toutes les parois latérales du cadre, de façon à être en contact avec celles-ci. Lorsqu'il est logé partiellement dans deux cadres superposés, le bloc est préférentiellement tel qu'il s'étend entre toutes les parois latérales des deux cadres, de façon à être en contact avec celles-ci.The block preferably extends between all the side walls of the frame, so as to be in contact with them. When it is partially housed in two superimposed frames, the block is preferably such that it extends between all the side walls of the two frames, so as to be in contact with them.
De préférence, la hauteur du bloc est égale à la hauteur du cadre.Preferably, the height of the block is equal to the height of the frame.
De préférence, le bloc s'étend latéralement entre plusieurs parties de surfaces formant un triangle, un rectangle ou un carré. Ces parties de surfaces comprennent de préférence une partie plane prévue pour être en contact avec la surface intérieure de la cavité et une partie en renfoncement de façon à former un chanfrein à l'extrémité supérieure du bloc.Preferably, the block extends laterally between several parts of surfaces forming a triangle, a rectangle or a square. These surface parts preferably comprise a flat part intended to be in contact with the interior surface of the cavity and a recessed part so as to form a chamfer at the upper end of the block.
Le bloc peut par exemple faire entre 100 et 800 mm de hauteur, préférentiellement environ 300 mm. Le bloc peut par exemple faire entre 100 et 800 mm de profondeur, préférentiellement environ 263 mm. Le bloc peut par exemple faire entre 100 et 800 mm de largeur, préférentiellement environ 263 mm. La largeur du bloc est préférentiellement égale à sa profondeur.The block can for example be between 100 and 800 mm in height, preferably around 300 mm. The block can for example be between 100 and 800 mm deep, preferably around 263 mm. The block can for example be between 100 and 800 mm wide, preferably around 263 mm. The width of the block is preferably equal to its depth.
Une fonction du bloc est de former la partie mâle de l'agencement par emboîtement alors que les cadres forment des parties femelles. Une autre fonction du bloc est de fournir une excellente isolation thermique et phonique.One function of the block is to form the male part of the arrangement by nesting while the frames form the female parts. Another function of the block is to provide excellent thermal and sound insulation.
Dans un mode de réalisation de l'invention, la cavité et le bloc sont tels que le bloc peut entrer dans la cavité par son ouverture inférieure et en sortir par son ouverture supérieure.
Ainsi, il est possible de totalement faire glisser le bloc totalement hors de la cavité.In one embodiment of the invention, the cavity and the block are such that the block can enter the cavity through its lower opening and exit through its upper opening.
Thus, it is possible to completely slide the block completely out of the cavity.
Dans un mode de réalisation de l'invention, la différence, prise en valeur absolue, entre au moins une étendue latérale de la cavité et une étendue latérale correspondante du bloc mesurée quand le bloc est hors de la cavité est de moins de 3 mm, préférentiellement moins de 2 mm, plus préférentiellement moins de 1 mm.In one embodiment of the invention, the difference, taken as an absolute value, between at least one lateral extent of the cavity and a corresponding lateral extent of the block measured when the block is outside the cavity is less than 3 mm, preferably less than 2 mm, more preferably less than 1 mm.
En d'autres termes, l'étendue latérale du bloc peut être inférieure, supérieure ou égale à l'étendue latérale de la cavité, mais la différence entre ces deux étendues est préférentiellement inférieure à 3 mm, 2 mm ou 1 mm.In other words, the lateral extent of the block may be less, greater than or equal to the lateral extent of the cavity, but the difference between these two extents is preferably less than 3 mm, 2 mm or 1 mm.
Ainsi, le bloc est prévu pour être inséré de façon particulièrement ajustée dans la cavité.Thus, the block is designed to be inserted particularly closely into the cavity.
Dans le cadre du présent document, une « étendue latérale » d'un élément peut être par exemple sa longueur, sa largeur, sa profondeur. Comme le bloc est prévu pour être au moins partiellement engagé dans la cavité, une étendue latérale du bloc correspond généralement à une étendu latérale de la cavité : par exemple la largeur du bloc correspond à la largeur de la cavité et la profondeur du bloc correspond à la profondeur de la cavité.In the context of this document, a “lateral extent” of an element can be for example its length, its width, its depth. As the block is intended to be at least partially engaged in the cavity, a lateral extent of the block generally corresponds to a lateral extent of the cavity: for example the width of the block corresponds to the width of the cavity and the depth of the block corresponds to the depth of the cavity.
La valeur absolue de la différence entre l'étendue latérale du bloc et l'étendu latérale correspondante de la cavité est préférentiellement inférieure à 1% de l'étendue latérale du bloc, plus préférentiellement inférieur à 0,5% de l'étendue latérale du bloc.The absolute value of the difference between the lateral extent of the block and the corresponding lateral extent of the cavity is preferably less than 1% of the lateral extent of the block, more preferably less than 0.5% of the lateral extent of the block.
Le bloc peut être suffisamment compressible latéralement pour que son étendue latérale diminue lorsqu'il est engagé, au moins partiellement, dans la cavité.The block may be sufficiently compressible laterally so that its lateral extent decreases when it is engaged, at least partially, in the cavity.
Dans un mode de réalisation de l'invention, la différence, en valeur absolue, entre la largeur de la cavité et la largeur du bloc mesurée quand le bloc est hors de la cavité est de moins de 3 mm, préférentiellement moins de 2 mm, plus préférentiellement moins de 1 mm et/ou la différence, en valeur absolue, entre la profondeur de la cavité et la profondeur du bloc mesurée quand le bloc est hors de la cavité est de moins de 3 mm, préférentiellement moins de 2 mm, plus préférentiellement moins de 1 mm.In one embodiment of the invention, the difference, in absolute value, between the width of the cavity and the width of the block measured when the block is outside the cavity is less than 3 mm, preferably less than 2 mm, more preferably less than 1 mm and/or the difference, in absolute value, between the depth of the cavity and the depth of the block measured when the block is outside the cavity is less than 3 mm, preferably less than 2 mm, more preferably less than 1 mm.
Dans un mode de réalisation de l'invention, l'extrémité supérieure du bloc est chanfreinée et/ou des coins de l'extrémité supérieure du bloc sont arrondis.In one embodiment of the invention, the upper end of the block is chamfered and/or corners of the upper end of the block are rounded.
Ce chanfrein permet de réduire la largeur et/ou la profondeur du bloc au niveau de son extrémité supérieure afin de pouvoir facilement faire entrer le bloc dans la cavité par l'ouverture inférieure du cadre, notamment si la dimension latérale du bloc hors de la cavité est proche de la dimension latérale correspondante de la cavité. Le chanfrein peut par exemple faire environ 1 cm.This chamfer makes it possible to reduce the width and/or depth of the block at its upper end in order to be able to easily enter the block into the cavity through the lower opening of the frame, particularly if the lateral dimension of the block outside the cavity is close to the corresponding lateral dimension of the cavity. The chamfer can, for example, be approximately 1 cm.
Dans un mode de réalisation de l'invention, le cadre comprend des parois latérales délimitant la cavité latéralement, et le bloc est prévu pour être en contact mécanique avec toutes les parois latérales du cadre lorsqu'il est bloqué, au moins partiellement, dans la cavité.In one embodiment of the invention, the frame comprises side walls delimiting the cavity laterally, and the block is provided to be in mechanical contact with all the side walls of the frame when it is blocked, at least partially, in the cavity.
Cela permet d'assurer un blocage particulièrement fort et une isolation thermique particulièrement bonne puisque l'effet d'isolation thermique du bloc se fait sur toute la largeur et la profondeur de l'élément de construction. De préférence, le bloc est en contact mécanique avec toutes la parois latérales sur au moins 50% ou 80% de la hauteur du bloc qui est dans la cavité.This ensures particularly strong blocking and particularly good thermal insulation since the thermal insulation effect of the block is over the entire width and depth of the construction element. Preferably, the block is in mechanical contact with all the side walls over at least 50% or 80% of the height of the block which is in the cavity.
Dans un mode de réalisation de l'invention, la hauteur du cadre est sensiblement égale à la hauteur du bloc. Dans le cadre de la présente invention, une « hauteur » d'un objet est de préférence la distance maximale entre l'extrémité inférieure et l'extrémité supérieure de l'objet.In one embodiment of the invention, the height of the frame is substantially equal to the height of the block. In the context of the present invention, a "height" of an object is preferably the maximum distance between the lower end and the upper end of the object.
Dans un mode de réalisation de l'invention, le cadre et le bloc ont une section polygonale, hexagonale, rectangulaire, triangulaire ou carrée dans un plan perpendiculaire à la première direction. La section horizontale du cadre et celle du bloc sont préférentiellement rectangulaires, plus préférentiellement carrées.In one embodiment of the invention, the frame and the block have a polygonal, hexagonal, rectangular, triangular or square section in a plane perpendicular to the first direction. The horizontal section of the frame and that of the block are preferably rectangular, more preferably square.
Dans un mode de réalisation de l'invention, la cavité est délimitée par des surfaces planes parallèles à la première direction.In one embodiment of the invention, the cavity is delimited by flat surfaces parallel to the first direction.
Ainsi, les surfaces planes qui délimitent la cavité ne sont pas inclinées par rapport à la première direction. Cela évite notamment tout rétrécissement de la cavité vers le haut ou le bas.Thus, the flat surfaces which delimit the cavity are not inclined relative to the first direction. This notably avoids any shrinkage of the cavity upwards or downwards.
Dans un mode de réalisation de l'invention, le cadre est au moins partiellement en bois et/ou en polymère.In one embodiment of the invention, the frame is at least partially made of wood and/or polymer.
Le cadre peut être dans tout matériau comprenant du bois. Il peut par exemple être fait de panneaux à copeau orienté appelés, qui sont parfois connus sont le nom de panneaux OSB. Le MDF est aussi possible. Le cadre peut aussi être fait d'un polymère.The frame can be made of any material including wood. For example, it can be made from called oriented strand board, which is sometimes known as OSB. MDF is also possible. The frame can also be made of a polymer.
De préférence, le cadre ne comprend pas de béton. En effet, des parois en béton devraient être beaucoup plus épaisses que des parois en bois et/ou en polymère, ce qui rendrait l'élément de construction lourd.Preferably, the frame does not include concrete. Indeed, concrete walls would have to be much thicker than wood and/or polymer walls, which would make the construction element heavy.
L'invention propose en outre un assemblage comprenant un premier et un deuxième éléments de construction, dans lequel le cadre du deuxième élément de construction est posé sur le cadre du premier élément de construction et le bloc du premier élément de construction est bloqué mécaniquement dans la cavité du cadre du premier élément de construction et dans la cavité du cadre du deuxième élément de construction. De préférence, cet assemblage ne comprend pas de moyen de collage entre le cadre du premier élément de construction et le cadre du deuxième élément de construction.The invention further proposes an assembly comprising a first and a second construction element, in which the frame of the second construction element is placed on the frame of the first construction element and the block of the first construction element is mechanically blocked in the cavity of the frame of the first construction element and in the cavity of the frame of the second construction element. Preferably, this assembly does not include any bonding means between the frame of the first construction element and the frame of the second construction element.
L'invention propose en outre un module de construction comprenant un premier et un deuxième éléments de construction selon un mode quelconque de réalisation de l'invention, et dans lequel le cadre du premier élément de construction est fixé latéralement, par exemple par vissage et/ou collage, au cadre du deuxième élément de construction. Les différents éléments de construction d'un module sont de préférence identiques.The invention further proposes a construction module comprising a first and a second construction element according to any embodiment of the invention, and in which the frame of the first construction element is fixed laterally, for example by screwing and/or or bonding, to the frame of the second construction element. The different construction elements of a module are preferably identical.
Dans un mode de réalisation de l'invention, le module de construction comprend en outre un troisième élément de construction selon un mode quelconque de réalisation de l'invention fixé latéralement au cadre du deuxième élément de construction. De préférence, les trois éléments de construction du module sont alignés ou disposés en coin.In one embodiment of the invention, the construction module further comprises a third construction element according to any embodiment of the invention fixed laterally to the frame of the second construction element. Preferably, the three construction elements of the module are aligned or arranged in a corner.
L'invention propose en outre un mur comprenant au moins trois modules de constructions selon un mode quelconque de réalisation de l'invention, au moins un premier des modules de constructions comprenant :
- un premier bloc situé d'une part dans une première cavité du premier module de construction et d'autre part dans une cavité d'un deuxième des modules de constructions, et
- un deuxième bloc situé d'une part dans une deuxième cavité du premier module de construction et d'autre part dans une cavité d'un troisième des modules de constructions.

- a second block located on the one hand in a second cavity of the first construction module and on the other hand in a cavity of a third of the construction modules.
Les modules sont ainsi disposés en décalages les uns par rapport aux autres de façon à obtenir un mur particulièrement solide. Le mur peut comprendre en outre en outre des montants fixés à plusieurs modules de construction. Cela permet de renforcer la stabilité du murThe modules are thus arranged offset from each other so as to obtain a particularly solid wall. The wall may further include in addition amounts attached to several building modules. This helps reinforce the stability of the wall
Le mur peut en outre comprendre une planche sur laquelle sont fixés certains des éléments de construction, le cadre des éléments de construction fixés à la planche comportant une découpe inférieure recevant au moins une partie supérieure de la planche. La planche peut être appelée sablière.The wall may further comprise a board on which some of the construction elements are fixed, the frame of the construction elements fixed to the board comprising a lower cutout receiving at least an upper part of the board. The board can be called a sandboard.
L'invention propose en outre un bâtiment comprenant au moins un élément de construction selon un mode quelconque de réalisation de l'invention, ou un module selon un mode quelconque de réalisation de l'invention, ou un mur selon un mode quelconque de réalisation de l'invention.The invention further proposes a building comprising at least one construction element according to any embodiment of the invention, or a module according to any embodiment of the invention, or a wall according to any embodiment of the invention.
