b) behind the plate-shaped wall building elements shutterings for the supporting framework consisting of pillars and/or struts are produced from strips and/or insulating material; c) the shuttered regions for the framework are filled with a load-bearing, curable compound, in particular with concrete, wherein the hardening compound flows around the screws used in step a); d) after step a), at the latest after the curing of the compound, the plate-shaped wall elements are set up, fixed, and aligned; e) installation elements for electrical power, water, heating, etc. are mounted on the outer face of the plate-shaped wall building elements; f) plate-shaped wall building elements are fixed to the outer faces of the pillars and/or struts of the supporting timber-frame construction, frame construction, or post-and-beam structure; g) the remaining spaces between the plate-shaped wall building elements, the elements of the supporting framework, and/or the installation elements for electrical power, water, heating, etc. are filled with a bulk material or an insulating material. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A method for producing an exterior wall of a building having a supporting framework made of at least one pillar, characterized by the following steps: a) providing plate-shaped wall elements comprising an inner surface and an outer surface, wherein a plurality of elongated anchoring screws extend from the outer surface of the plate-shaped wall elements into regions to be occupied by the at least one pillar such that free ends of the plurality of elongated anchoring screws protrude into the regions to be occupied by the at least one pillar; b) providing at least one shuttering element to surround the regions to be occupied by the at least one pillar such that the at least one shuttering element provides a shuttering for the at least one pillar to be formed behind the plate-shaped wall elements; c) forming the at least one pillar by filling regions defined by the at least one shuttering element with a loadbearing, curing compound, such that the curing compound flows around the plurality of elongated anchoring screws used in step a); d) before or after step a), and at latest after curing of the compound poured in step c), the plate-shaped wall elements are set up, fixed, and aligned such that the inner surface of the plate-shaped wall elements face an interior of the building; e) mounting installation elements on the outer surface of the plate-shaped wall elements, such that the installation elements face an exterior of the building; f) mounting façade plates to the at least one pillar such that the façade plates face the exterior of the building, and such that an intermediate space exists between the plate-shaped wall elements and the façade plates; and g) filling the intermediate space between the plate-shaped wall elements, the at least one pillars, the installation elements and the façade plates with a bulk material; h) wherein construction of the exterior wall commences at the plate-shaped wall elements facing the interior of the building; i) wherein after solidification of the curable compound, the plurality of elongated anchoring screws are detachably fixed therein such that the plurality of elongated anchoring screws are configured to be unscrewed from the solidified curable compound by rotational movements. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The method according to claim 1 characterized in that after the solidification of the curable compound the plurality of elongated anchoring screws are fixed in a form-fitting manner therein in relation to vertical tensile stresses. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The method according to claim 1 wherein the exterior wall comprises at least two pillars, and further wherein the exterior wall comprises at least one strut extending between the at least two pillars. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The method according to claim 1 wherein the installation elements comprise at least one selected from the group consisting of power, water and heating. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The method according to claim 1 characterized in that the plurality of elongated anchoring screws comprise a coating, which prevents sticking to the cured compound. ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) The method according to claim 5 wherein the coating comprises a thinly applied oil. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The method according to claim 1, characterized in that the exterior wall is at least one of initially joined together or preassembled lying on a table. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The method according to claim 7, characterized in that the plate-shaped wall elements lie lowermost during a horizontal preassembly. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The method according to claim 1 characterized in that the at least one shuttering element is formed as profiles having a U-shaped cross-section. ### Claim 10 (depends on 9) The method according to claim 9, characterized in that the at least one cross-sectionally U-shaped shuttering element is mounted to the plate-shaped wall elements such that an opening of the U-shape is a groove therein, faces toward the inner surface of the plate-shaped wall elements. ### Claim 11 (depends on 9) The method according to claim 9 characterized in that the at least one cross-sectionally U-shaped shuttering element is mounted to the plate-shaped wall elements such that the at least one cross-sectionally U-shaped shuttering element overlaps one or more of the plurality of elongated anchoring screws. ### Claim 12 (depends on 9) The method according to claim 9 characterized in that each said at least one cross-sectionally U-shaped shuttering element has a channel on longitudinal edges thereof connecting a middle web of the U-shape to one lateral leg in each case, for accommodating edges of façade plates or other construction plates. ### Claim 13 (depends on 9) The method according to claim 9 characterized in that the at least one cross-sectionally U-shaped shuttering element is penetrated by further anchoring parts, which extend from a raised region of a middle web between two channels thereof for accommodating façade plates or other construction plates up into a cavity within the U-shape.
