  • Patent number: 4486993
    Abstract: The invention is comprised of a plurality of stud members positioned in a spaced-apart and generally parallel fashion with respect to each other at the building site. A plurality of blocks are positioned between adjacent stud members. A plurality of rods are wedged between the stud members and blocks so as to extend between stud members to form a lattice assembly. The blocks are held within the lattice assembly by the rods and studs. The entire lattice assembly is surfaced with a layer of concrete, plaster, or other suitable building material to provide a load bearing building structure. Providing that the surface material can withstand the abuses of weather, the building structure of the invention may be used for exterior walls and roofs. In a specific embodiment in which the blocks are of a foamed polystyrene insulating material the invention provides a better insulated building structure than conventional construction.
