Abstract
Abstract A prefabricated balcony platform including attachment members to fasten the platform to the wall of a building, and apertures to secure a parapet to the platform. The balcony platform consists of a load-carrying beam frame of a corrosion-resistant metal, such as aluminium, a bottom slab of refractory material attached to the lower face of the beam frame and a top slab attached to the upper face of the beam frame and consisting of a material having heat-transfer properties, preferably aluminium. In the beam frame intermediate the two slabs is provided a layer of sound-proof, refractory material, such as mineral wool.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
156 words
An improved prefabricated balcony platform adapted to be affixed to a building wall between vertically spaced windows or the like for assisting in the prevention of upward transmission of fire, said platform including attachment members for affixing said platform to the wall of a building, a parapet, and apertures in said platform to pass fastening means for securing said parapet to said balcony platform, the improvement comprising a load-supported generally open beam frame of a corrosion-resistant, heat conductive metal affixed to said attachment members, a bottom slab of refractory material detachably attached to the lower face of said beam frame and in heat transfer relation therewith, a top slab attached to the upper face of said beam frame in heat transfer relation thereto and consisting of a material having high heat-transfer properties, and an intermediate layer of sound-proof refractory material positioned in the opening of said beam frame and interposed between said top and bottom layers.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim

An improved prefabricated balcony platform adapted to be affixed to a building wall between vertically spaced windows or the like for assisting in the prevention of upward transmission of fire, said platform including attachment members for affixing said platform to the wall of a building, a parapet, and apertures in said platform to pass fastening means for securing said parapet to said balcony platform, the improvement comprising a load-supported generally open beam frame of a corrosion-resistant, heat conductive metal affixed to said attachment members, a bottom slab of refractory material detachably attached to the lower face of said beam frame and in heat transfer relation therewith, a top slab attached to the upper face of said beam frame in heat transfer relation thereto and consisting of a material having high heat-transfer properties, and an intermediate layer of sound-proof refractory material positioned in the opening of said beam frame and interposed between said top and bottom layers.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
91 words
An improved prefabricated balcony platform as claimed in claim 1, comprising a first L-shaped edge rib fixed relative to said beam frame, said rib extending from an external face of said beam frame to the underneath face of said bottom slab so as to cover the edge of said slab, and a second similarly shaped edge rib affixed to each beam frame, said rib extending from an external face of said beam frame to the upperside face of said top slab so as to cover the edge of said top slab.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
24 words
An improved prefabricated balcony platform as claimed in claim 1, wherein the top surface of said top slab is provided with an anti-slip surface.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
90 words
An improved prefabricated platform as claimed in claim 1, comprising a fastening means positioned in the constructional parts of said building, said attachment members providing the means for fastening said balcony platform to said building, said fastening means comprising two parallel tube sections, stays fixed between and interconnecting said parallel tube sections and serving to maintain said tube sections in fixed interrelationship as regards their mutual spacings and angular positions, said fastening means arranged to be cast into the joists of said building at right angles to the facade thereof.
