Modular complete thermal break foundation, wall and roof assemblies for buildings

Abstract

Prefabricated, modular, completely like-constructed foundation, wall and roof assemblies are used to build inexpensively energy efficient houses and commercial buildings therefrom with a panel of preform weather resistant exterior skin. Being pre-built horizontally, above and away from the skin are suspended an array of parallel studs. Partially around the studs, between the studs and between the studs and skin is an expanding poured foam layer that is introduced forming a complete rigid thermal break. Apertures or openings in the unexposed stud portions provide for the mounting of conduiting, wiring and internal fixtures. Internal wall treatments, such as sheet rock, are then secured to the studs.

What is claimed: 
     
         1 . Prefabricated, modular, foundation, wall and roof assemblies are used to build inexpensively energy efficient houses and commercial buildings, the assemblies comprising:
 a.) a panel of preform weather resistant exterior skin;   b.) above and away from the skin are suspended an array of parallel studs; and   c.) between the studs, between the studs and skin and partially around the studs is an expanding poured foam layer forming a complete rigid thermal break between the skin and the stud.   
     
     
         2 . The assemblies of  claim 1 , further comprising apertures in the stud portion not covered with foam to provide for the mounting of wiring through the studs.
