Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a way to create a strong and moisture-resistant interior wall. The system uses a wall framing system that automatically separates the interior wall from the exterior wall, reducing the likelihood of moisture contact. The framing system is made from materials that are resistant to moisture damage and do not support the growth of microorganisms. This results in a more durable and healthy interior wall.

Problems solved by technology

Additionally, the wall framing system of the present invention is manufactured from materials which are resistant to moisture degradation, and are not supportive of the growth of microorganisms such as mold or mildew.

Abstract

A wall framing system for supporting an interior wall in spaced proximity to an exterior wall includes one or more stud members extending between upper and lower frame channel members, which are configured to self-locate in relation to the exterior wall in a manner which establishes a moisture and air barrier between the exterior wall and the interior wall supported by the wall framing system. The interior wall supported by the wall framing system is resistant to moisture degradation, and maintains desired R-value insulation properties throughout the wall.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 61 / 608,911, filed on Mar. 9, 2012 and entitled “WALL FRAMING SYSTEM”, the content of which being incorporated herein in its entirety.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to wall construction generally, and more particularly to systems and methods for constructing insulated interior walls or wall sections in a manner which minimizes moisture accumulation and damage to the interior wall as a result of condensation or other moisture intrusion pathways.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]Improvements in construction materials, construction methods, and more stringent local and state building codes have contributed to improved energy efficiency in new building construction and remodeled insulated wall structures for homes and buildings.[0004]Conventional construction techniques employed to obtain relatively high insulation values involve a wall f...
