  • Current insulated building walls are generally built by cutting and erecting the structural framework to provide suitable load carrying characteristics. Next, sheathing is applied to the outside. The builder may also have been supplied with twisted or out of square material that may then be used improperly or be discarded. Thus, constructing insulated building wall is labor intensive, costing time and money, and may entail wasted material and added work.
  • As can be seen, there is a need for a more efficient method of constructing insulated walls.
  • SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

  • DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
  • The following detailed description is of the best currently contemplated modes of carrying out exemplary embodiments of the invention. The description is not to be taken in a limiting sense, but is made merely for the purpose of illustrating the general principles of the invention, since the scope of the invention is best defined by the appended claims.
  • Various inventive features are described below that can each be used independently of one another or in combination with other features.
  • Broadly, an embodiment of the present invention generally provides a prefabricated structural wall system 10 for use in the construction of buildings.
  • As illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 3, an embodiment of the wall system 10 of the present invention may include prefabricated panels 12, 14, 16 that may be assembled together to form the walls of a building on a substructure 18. Each panel 12, 14, 16, may be fabricated from a molded composited material 20 and include spaced-apart framing, generally identified in the FIGs. as 22, with sheathing 24 attached to the framing 22. The sheathing 24 may be fabricated from composite flake board, plywood, or other laminated or molded product about ¼ inch to about one inch thick. The outside surface of the sheathing 24 may be left plain or may be embossed at the factory with any desirable texture, pattern, or design 28, such as brick, stone, wood, or the like. A press may be used to form inside and outside designs 28 in the exposed surfaces of the sheathing 24. The outside surface may also be coated with a water repellant paint in any desirable color. The sheathing 24 may have standard dimensions, such as about four feet wide by about eight to nine feet high.
  • As part of the framing 22, studs 22A, 22B, 22C, 22D may also have standard cross-sectional dimensions, such as about 2×4 inches (nominal) or about 2×6 inches (nominal) and be about 94⅛ inches long. The studs 22A, 22B, 22C, 22D may be integrally molded with the sheathing 24 parallel to the long dimension (height) of the sheathing 24 and provide a load-bearing framework. The studs 22A, 22B, 22C, 22D may be manufactured with a series of holes 30 running horizontally at correct heights to meet code for electrical, plumbing, and other runs.
  • As illustrated in FIG. 6, a straight wall panel 12 may include an outer stud 22A molded to one of the outer edges of the sheathing 24 and extending laterally beyond the edge of the sheathing by about ½ of the width of the outer stud 22A. Additional inner studs 22B may be located parallel to the outer stud 22A, such as on 16-inch centers as in conventional construction. The top of each stud 22A, 22B may be located about three inches from the top edge of the sheathing 24 to allow for a horizontal seal plate across the tops of the studs 22A, 22B to be added by the builder on the construction site. Also part of the framing 22, horizontal bottom seal plates may join the studs 22A, 22B and have corner blend radii 32 at the joints.
  • Left and right inside corner panels 14 (FIG. 8) and outside corner wall panels 16 (FIG. 9) may also be fabricated. For an inside corner panel 14, one side of the sheathing 24 may have the equivalent of four conventional finished 2×4 or 2×6 studs 22C. Three studs may be positioned side by side at one end, making a 6×4 or 8×6, and a fourth may be attached to the back of the sheathing of the panel 14 and to the other three studs, extending laterally away from the inside wall at approximately 90 degrees. The outside corner of the fourth stud may turn laterally inwards to the inside wall. Additional inner studs 22B may be secured to the sheath as with a straight wall panel 12. An outside corner panel 16 may be fabricated in a similar fashion the equivalent of four conventional finished 2×4 or 2×6 studs 22D but with the fourth stud extending laterally away from the outside wall at approximately 90 degrees.
  • Horizontal under slung sheathing 26 may be part of the sheathing 24 or be attached to the bottom of the framing 22. As illustrated in FIG. 6, one edge of the sheathing 24 and under slung sheathing 26 may begin short of the opposite outer edge of the first stud 22A by about ½ of the stud's width. The opposite outer edge of the sheathing 24 and under slug sheathing 26 may be left without any studding to permit each panel to partially overlap the first stud 22A of the previous panel and be secured together.
  • To assemble the wall system 10, a builder may begin by placing an inside corner panel 14 or an outer corner panel 16 on a building's substructure 18. If the substructure is wooden, panels with under slung sheathing 26 may be used to cover the ends of the floor joist and seal plate. Additional panels 12, 14, 16 may then be installed to overlap at the interlocking vertical ends of the previously installed panels 12, 14, 16 with the bottom seal plate of each panel 12, 14, 16 resting on the existing sub-structure 18. Each panel 12, 14, 16 may be secured by nailing, screwing, or gluing at the overlaps and bottom plates.
  • It will be appreciated that the dimensions of the sheathing 24 and framing 22 may be adjusted to accommodate any building situation and any building code, including residential, commercial, office, sheds, metric-based, and foreign. The dimensions may also be adjusted to account for different ceiling heights, longer horizontal runs, and other structural requirements. Further, by changing the molding patterns, panels 12, 14, 16 may be fabricated for installation as roof, ceiling, or floor panels as well as interior or exterior walls panels, providing straight, square, and uniform studs 22A, 22B, 22C, 22D that are made from cheaper and more available material and with less labor. The panels 12, 14, 16 may also be fabricated with openings for doors and windows.
  • It should be understood, of course, that the foregoing relates to exemplary embodiments of the invention and that modifications may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as set forth in the following claims.
