Patent ID: 8176696

Claim:
A wall mold for forming a building comprising: a structural insulating core having an array of support channels extending the full height of the structural insulating core, rigid foam strips positioned against opposing support channel flange faces, wherein the foam strips provide a space into which a fastener extending through the channel flange may project; spacer insulation blocks installed between adjacent support channels of the structural insulating core, the spacer insulation block depth equal to the width of a web of the support channels, the blocks fully extending from a lower beam mold formed at the bottom region of the core to the opposite, top region of the core that forms an upper beam; inner and outer rigid boards attached to flanges located on both sides of the support channels, the boards fully extending between the support channels and longitudinally extending from the bottom of the supports channels to a height below the top of the support channels such that a beam mold is created in a void formed between the top of the wall mold and another wall panel or roof structure located above the wall mold, the boards forming the inner and outer major faces of the wall mold, the spacer insulation blocks positioned between the inner and outer rigid boards, and wherein the inner and outer rigid insulation boards of the upper and lower structural insulating core define the inner and outer major faces of the beam molds; a column mold formed in a void located between adjacent spacer insulation blocks, the void including the support channels, the support channel webs having openings for hardenable material to flow through, wherein the support channel is encompassed by the hardenable material, and the inner and outer rigid boards defining the inner and outer faces of the column mold; the structural insulating core oriented vertically and steel reinforcing installed in the beam and column molds, the steel reinforcing installed in the beam mold passing through the support channel openings, and wherein the structural insulating core is configured to allow hardenable material to be poured thus forming the column and beam molds, the structural insulating core forming the wall mold.
