Abstract:
1. A construction module for building a planar structure, said construction module comprising: (a) first and second parallel plate-shaped wall sections; (b) an intervening module core disposed between the wall sections; and (c) a plurality of spacing timbers disposed between the wall sections; wherein each wall section has a plurality of solid squared timbers set on end and connected to one another by self-tapping screws disposed transversely to a longitudinal direction of the squared timbers and extending in a plane of the respective wall section, so that each wall section forms a panel; wherein the plurality of spacing timbers are disposed parallel to one another and mutually offset in the longitudinal direction of the squared timbers; wherein a first spacing timber of the plurality of spacing timbers is disposed at a first lateral longitudinal side of the wall sections and projects beyond the first lateral longitudinal side of the wall sections and a second spacing timber of the plurality of spacing timbers is disposed at a second lateral longitudinal side of the wall sections opposite the first lateral longitudinal side and is set back into the module core, so that the construction module can interlock with an adjacent construction module in the manner of a tongue and groove joint; and wherein said squared timbers have rectangular cross sections with a broad side of the cross section being parallel to the plane of the respective wall section.
