Internally Braced Insulated Wall and Method of Constructing Same

A method of constructing a high thermal resistance wall having a top and a bottom onto a base foundation having a length comprising:

• (a) stacking a base run of ICFs onto the base foundation wherein said ICFs comprise spaced apart panel members having interior and exterior surfaces with said interior surfaces defining an interior wall space;
• (b) disposing a plurality of bracing ladders supported at spaced apart locations on the base foundation within said interior wall space extending to the top of the wall;
• (c) disposing in said base run of ICFs at spaced apart locations along the length of the base foundation a lower spar set comprising a plurality of spar members spanning said interior wall space and having spar ends that are disposed outside of said interior wall space adjacent said exterior panel surfaces;
• and
• (d) injecting close cell polyurethane foam forming liquids into said interior wall space in which said foam forming liquids expand to fill the space between said ICF panels and surround said bracing ladders and portions of said spar sets within said interior wall space with close cell polyurethane foam.
