Benefits of technology

[0026] Yet another object of the present invention is to provide studs and joists that enhance the structural integrity of the structure in case of fire.
[0027] It is another general object of the invention to provide a ultra-lite building system that is suitable to construct a house of reinforced foam components that is both light weight and ex

Problems solved by technology

Further, U.S. Pat. No. 5,448,862 discloses a prefabricated formed plastic staircase where vertical slots are provided for the insertion of reinforcing steel rods meant for embedment in concrete beams below the surface to provide stiffening for the overall structure but no assistance to the function loading on the tread surfaces.
And while such diaphragm rigidity may have been accomplished, the end product results are limited to purposes of rigid building enclosure rather than as the main building stru

Embodiment Construction

[0044] Turning now to the drawings wherein like references refer to like parts, FIG. 1 discloses an axonometric view (partially broken away to disclose internal detail) of a building structure 10 fabricated in accordance with the ultra-lite building system.

[0045] In a preferred embodiment the building structure 10 is constructed upon conventional foundation of concrete pad 12. First a perimeter course of base plates 14 are positioned about the perimeter of the concrete pad. These base plates can be bolted to the concrete pad in a conventional manner. Each of the base plates 14 includes a plurality of upstanding stub columns 16 which are preferably circular in cross section but may be manufactured with other geometrical configurations such as elliptical, square, triangular, etc. as desired.

[0046] Mounted above the base plates are a plurality of wall panels 18. these wall panels 18 are generally composed from plastic columns 20 which are interconnected by spacer plates 22 as will be...
