Abstract

An insulated structural building panel and header system, comprising a rectangular panel body molded of a rigid foam material and a plurality of elongated, channel-shaped framing members oriented parallel to each other and embedded during molding in each first and second face of the panel body. Each framing member is retained in place in the panel body by return lips formed into first and second edges of an open side of the framing members without the use of adhesive or mechanical fasteners. The panels may include utility recesses formed in one face of the panel and mortised edges for keying the panels securely together. The panels may be formed with alternate framing member spacings. Auxiliary framing members are disclosed having T and L shaped cross sections for joining panels together or reinforcing the panels to support greater loads.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE

[0001] The present U.S. patent application claims priority from earlier filed U.S. Provisional Patent Applications Ser. No. 60 / 549,587 filed Mar. 3, 2004 and entitled “Improved Foam Insulated Building Panel And System,” and Ser. No. 60 / 555,985 filed Mar. 24, 2004 and entitled “Foam Insulated Building Panel And Utility System.”BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] 1. Field of the Invention

[0003] The present invention generally relates to insulated structural building panels and, more particularly, to advances in the design of the building panels enabling significantly reduced costs of manufacturing the panels and of constructing buildings using the panels.

[0004] 2. Background of the Invention

[0005] Insulated building panels having both structural and insulating properties have long been available in several forms. Among the better known types are structural insulated panels (“SIP”), which typically comprise a solid core of insulating material, such as expanded polysty...
