Method of constructing a reinforced concrete dwelling

Abstract

A method is disclosed for the method of building a structure. The method includes laying a foundation; running tubing within a column form; pouring the concrete into the column form; and forming walls so as to define the structure. The walls are formed from concrete columns separated by foam. The concrete attaches to the insulation as the concrete sets. A roof is also included and formed from a plurality of sections. The roof is placed in communication with the walls.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method for building a structure, comprising:
 laying a foundation;   forming a wall structure by:
 orienting a section of insulation along the foundation; 
 creating forms for a plurality of pillars, the pillars located on opposing ends of the insulation, the insulation forming a portion of the form; 
 running tubing within at least one of the forms for the passage of at least one of electrical wiring and water; and 
 pouring concrete into the pillar form, the concrete attaching to the insulation so as to minimize air gaps there between; 
   forming a roof structure and coupling it to the wall structure by:
 orienting a section of roof insulation between a plurality of forms for rafters, the roof insulation forming part of the rafter form, the roof insulation and the rafters being assembled on top of the wall structure; and 
 pouring concrete into the rafter forms. 
   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 locating a tie relative to the foundation, the tie being secured to the foundation and configured to extend above a foundation surface.   
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein the tie is formed within the concrete as the concrete sets. 
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein the tie is coupled to the concrete after the concrete has set. 
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 applying an interior surface treatment to at least one of the wall structure and the roof structure.   
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 5 , wherein the interior surface treatment is a combined layer of mesh and concrete. 
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 6 , wherein the concrete is sprayed over the mesh. 
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 applying an exterior surface treatment to at least one of the wall structure and the roof structure.   
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 8 , wherein the exterior surface treatment is brick. 
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 8 , wherein the exterior surface treatment is stucco. 
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a sub layer between the wall structure and an exterior surface treatment.   
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 an attachment member configured to secure an interior surface treatment to the wall structure.
