Patent ID: 8863463

Claim:
An insulating building system for a building structure, said system comprising: an assembly having a first side and a second side opposite of said first side, wherein said assembly comprises a plurality of self supporting insulation panels each made of a mineral fiber wool material having a density between 50-125 kg/m 3 and a compression elasticity modulus of at least 500 kPa, when measured parallel to the width of said insulation panel, each insulation panel having joining profile contact sides; at least one frame profile; a plurality of spaced apart joining profiles extending from at least one of said at least one frame profile, said plurality of joining profiles each having a first and second side surface which are abutted by a first and a second joining profile contact side, respectively, of insulating panels which are disposed on each side of said plurality of joining profiles, wherein said first and second joining profile contact sides of said insulation panels are provided with a shape matching the respective first and second side surfaces of said plurality of joining profiles, such that the insulation panels are retained between two of said plurality of joining profiles; and wherein the insulation panels provide lateral support to the joining profiles such that the bending amplitude and the buckling length of the joining profile are reduced; whereby the assembly provides a self-supporting and load bearing building structure.
