DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

(7) The embodiments described below are intended to illustrate the disclosed building envelope of the present invention, but not to limit the scope of the present invention. Therein, since the steel-structure building envelope is huge in volume, features are presented in local, close-up views for explicitness.

(8) In an embodiment of the present invention, a steel-structure building envelope comprises a building body A, floor slabs B and external walls C.

(9) Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the building body A is first constructed. The building body A comprises H beams 1 and decks 2. The decks 2 are assembled onto the H beams 1.

(10) After the building body A is assembled, the floor slabs B are constructed. The floor slabs B comprises RC slabs 3 laid on the decks 2 so that the decks 2 and the RC slabs 3 jointly act as the floor slabs B. A reinforcing bar structure 31 and a pre-embedded reinforcing steel bar are laid in each of the RC slabs 3. In the present embodiment, the pre-embedded reinforcing steel bar is a corrugated reinforcing steel bar 32 with an imperial bar size of number 3 (#3). The corrugated reinforcing steel bar 32 extends out of the corresponding RC slab 3 to be wound around a scaffold 4, serving as a first fastening means for fastening the scaffold 4. In order to ensure that the scaffold 4 is stable and conforms to the required strength of the regulations, the corrugated reinforcing steel bar 32 is wound around the scaffold 4 at least three and a half times. If the pre-embedded reinforcing steel bar is in a different size, such as a corrugated reinforcing steel bar with an imperial bar size of number 4 (#4), it is wound around the scaffold 4 according to the requirements of the regulations.

(11) Referring to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, after the construction of the floor slabs B is completed and the scaffold 4 is fastened by the first fastening means, the construction of the external walls C can be performed. In the present embodiment, the external walls C have a two-layer structure. An RC curb 5 is formed on the RC slab 3 by means of casting. After that, locking parts 7 for locking wall connecting rods 6 are embedded into the RC slab 3 at intervals. A transverse aluminum extrusion 8 is disposed on the outside of the RC slab 3. The wall connecting rods 6 each have one end passing through the transverse aluminum extrusion 8 and locked to the corresponding locking part 7. In the present embodiment, the locking part 7 is an expansion screw. The wall connecting rod 6 is locked to the locking part 7 with a bolt, and can carry a load of 2 tons after testing. The other end of the wall connecting rod 6 is configured to lock the scaffold 4, serving as a second fastening means for fastening the scaffold 4 after the corrugated reinforcing steel bar 32 is removed from the scaffold 4. After removing the corrugated reinforcing steel bar 32 from the scaffold 4, the part of the corrugated reinforcing steel bar 32, exposed on the RC slab 3, can be cut off.

(12) Next, one steel C profile 9 is installed on the RC curb 5 with an opening thereof facing upward, and another steel C profile 9 is mounted on the deck 2 with an opening thereof facing downward. An outer wall panel 101 and an inner wall panel 102 are attached to opposite sides of the RC curb 5 and the two steel C profiles 9, so that a hollow space S is formed between the outer wall panel 101 and the inner wall panel 102. Thereby, the external wall C has a two-layer structure and is affixed directly to the floor slab B. With the configuration, the floor slab B can completely separate the space of the upper story from the space of the lower story by providing good water cut-off and acoustic/thermal insulation between the upper and lower stories. The outer wall panel 101 is installed between the floor slabs B from the outside, and the adjacent outer wall panels 101 are separated by the transverse aluminum extrusion 8. Additionally, elastic cement may be filled in assembly gaps between the adjacent outer wall panels 101, so as to enhance waterproofing between the indoor side and the outdoor side of the building. In the present embodiment, a sound insulation material 20 is attached to each of the two steel C profiles 9, and partially received in the hollow space S. The sound insulation material 20 extends along the height of the external wall C. For example, the hollow space S is filled with rockwool. Thereby, with the hollow space S and the sound insulation material 20 inlaid in the two-layer structure of the external wall C, acoustic/thermal insulation between the indoor side and the outdoor side of the building is enhanced. Then, silicone 30 is injected between the transverse aluminum extrusion 8 and the two outer wall panels 101. As compared to traditional integrated curtain walls that tend to break due to resonance when receiving force or shocks, the structure of the present invention has the adjacent outer wall panels 101 separated by the transverse aluminum extrusions 8 so as to reduce the risk of force-based breakage of the outer wall panels 101. The external walls C include the transverse aluminum extrusions 8 at inter-story seams as physical caulking, so the use of silicone 30 can be reduced, thereby facilitating maintenance and saving costs.

(13) Referring to FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, when the external walls C are completed, the wall connecting rods 6 are disassembled one by one so as to remove the scaffold 4. (As to the wall connecting rods 6 and the scaffold 4, please refer to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4). After the wall connecting rods 6 are disassembled, the locking parts 7 are locked with nuts 40, or are stuffed with silicone and then sealed with paint. In the present invention, since the assembled outer wall panels 101 are level and flush to each other, instead of further tiling, the external walls C can be easily finished by covering the outer wall panels 101 across the surface of the building with waterproof coating and natural paint successively.

(14) Construction of the present embodiment is implemented as below, with details identical or similar to those known by people skilled in the art of SS construction omitted in the description and left out from the drawings for not blurring characteristics of the present embodiment.
