The surfaces of the building elements forming the interior and exterior surfaces of the finished wall are preferably reinforced along one such surface thereof. During the formation of the wall structure, horizontally and vertically aligned grooves are provided in the completed wall to facilitate the location at which severing should occur as well as to facilitate the severing of the reinforcing members to permit selected sections of the wall to be simply, readily and inexpensively removed. In one embodiment, the reinforcing members may be steel plates while in another alternative embodiment, the reinforcing members may be comprised of horizontally and vertically oriented elongated reinforcing rods.
