Wall and wall part

Abstract

An upright-wall, ceiling or roof made of panels fastened together along contacting panel edges. Each panel is made of a can-supporting planar element (a sheet of plywood, masonite, plastic or the like), reinforcing bars defining outer edges of the panel, cans between the reinforcing bars, wide-mesh wire or plastic panel-reinforcing network on the cans, and molded matrix material (foamed, cellular, polyolefin plastic, or concrete of portland or other cement and sand or porous aggregate -- for example, cinders, vermiculite, pumice, charred sawdust or the like) on the cans. The can-supporting element is placed in a mold, cans are put on this element optionally parallel to it but with their axes preferably perpendicular to it, the wide-mesh network is placed on the cans, and the moldable plastic material in fluent form is poured or injected into the mold thru the wide mesh of the network around the cans and on the network. Each panel preferably includes attachment flanges that are integral with the reinforcing network and fastened to the panel-reinforcing bars. The wall preferably includes a wall plate (preferably of wooden material -- for example a sawed lumber plank or bar of masonite) fastened to tops of the panels, and includes wall-finishing material of bricks, concrete blocks, elongated bars or stucco, fixed to surfaces of the panels by mortar or the like.
