Abstract
Abstract The invention relates to a building structure of a number of construction elements each comprising two plate-like side parts (2) which are mutually connected at a distance parallel to each other by at least one connecting part (3) which protrudes partially outside the periphery of these side parts (2) and fitting between side parts of an adjoining construction element (1). The connecting part (3) extends between the side parts over a distance in the order of magnitude of half the width of the side parts and over a substantially equal distance outside the side parts. The connecting parts (3) of adjoining construction elements (1) preferably leave spaces between each other so that the building structure substantially has one continuous interspace. The interspace can be filled with curing material.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim
131 words
Building structure of a number of construction elements each comprising two plate-like side parts having dimensions defining an outer perimeter, which are mutually connected at a distance parallel to each other by at least one connecting part which protrudes partially outside the outer perimeter of these side parts in a certain direction and fits between side parts of an adjoining construction element, characterized in that said connecting part extends between said side parts over a distance in said certain direction of substantially half the dimension of said side parts and over a substantially equal distance outside said side parts, and said connecting parts of adjoining construction elements having spaces between each other so that the structure substantially has a plurality of mutually connected interspaces defining one continuous interspace within the structure.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
131 words
Building structure of a number of construction elements each comprising two plate-like side parts having dimensions defining an outer perimeter, which are mutually connected at a distance parallel to each other by at least one connecting part which protrudes partially outside the outer perimeter of these side parts in a certain direction and fits between side parts of an adjoining construction element, characterized in that said connecting part extends between said side parts over a distance in said certain direction of substantially half the dimension of said side parts and over a substantially equal distance outside said side parts, and said connecting parts of adjoining construction elements having spaces between each other so that the structure substantially has a plurality of mutually connected interspaces defining one continuous interspace within the structure.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
31 words
The building structure of claim 1 wherein said connecting part extends between said side parts over a distance in said certain direction greater than half the dimension of said side parts.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
31 words
The building structure of claim 1 wherein said connecting part extends between said side parts over a distance in said certain direction less than half the dimension of said side parts.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
15 words
Building structure as claimed in claim 1, wherein the interspace is filled with curing material.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
16 words
Building structure as claimed in claim 1, wherein the construction elements are manufactured from aerated material.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
24 words
