Abstract
A structural component for use in building construction including a first support material member, a second support material member, an insulating material, and a first securing member. The first support material member may have a first length and a first edge. The second support material member may have a second length and a second edge and may oppose the first support material member. The insulating material may be disposed between the first support material member and the second support material member. The first securing member may be adapted to contact the first edge and the second edge.
Claims20
A structural component for use in building construction comprising:
- a first support material member having a first length and a first edge;
- a second support material member having a second length and a second edge, wherein the second support material member opposes the first support material member;
- an insulating material disposed between the first support material member and the second support material member;
- and
- a first securing member adapted to contact the first edge and the second edge.
A structural component comprising:
- a first support material member having a first edge;
- a second support material member, having a first edge, opposing the first structural member;
- an insulating material disposed between the first support material member and the second support material member;
- a first channel disposed on the first support material member and adapted to receive the insulating material;
- a second channel disposed on the second support material member and adapted to receive the insulating material;
- and
- a securing member adapted to contact the first edge of the first support material member and the first edge of the second support material member.
A structural component comprising:
- a first support material member having a first edge and a first length;
- a second support material member, having a second edge and a second length equal to the first length, opposing the first structural member;
- an insulating material disposed between and extending along an entirety of the first length of the first support material member and the second length of second support material member;
- a first channel disposed on the first support material member and adapted to receive the insulating material;
- a second channel disposed on the second support material member and adapted to receive the insulating material;
- a first securing member having a length equal to the first length and welded to the first edge of the first support material member and the second edge of the second support material member and extending along an entirety of the first edge of the first support material member and the second edge of the second support material member;
- a first routing passageway located through the entirety of a thickness of the insulating material;
- a second routing passageway located through an entirety of a thickness of the first securing member and positioned to align with the first routing passageway;
- a removable insert removably carried by the first routing passageway;
- and
- a second securing member adapted to contact a third edge of the first support material member and a fourth edge of the second support material member.
