Method for forming insulated products and building products formed in accordance therewith

A method for making a heat insulated, reinforced block of building material comprising:

• providing a mold defining a volume equal to a configuration of said block of building material;
• providing a plurality of hardened structures of heat insulating material formed from a composition of ingredients;
• providing at least one rigid reinforcement member, said at least one rigid reinforcement member being an elongate channel including a center portion having sides and two side portions, each side portion connected to the respective sides of the center portion, said elongate channel being filled by said fluid mixture of heat insulating material;
• providing a fluid mixture of heat insulating material formed from said composition of ingredients;
• placing said hardened structures and said at least one reinforced member in said mold with said at least one reinforcement member being disposed between said hardened structures;
• introducing said fluid mixture into said mold to surround said hardened structures and said at least one reinforcement member;
• allowing said fluid mixture to harden within said mold;
• and
• removing said harden fluid mixture from said mold, resulting in a block of reinforced heat insulating building material.

• providing a mold defining a volume equal to a defined configuration of said block of building material;
• providing a fluid mixture of heat insulating material formed from a composition of ingredients;
• providing a plurality of rigid reinforcement members, said plurality of reinforcement members each being an elongate channel including a center portion having sides and two side portions, each side portion connected to the respective sides of the center portion, said elongate channel being filled by said fluid mixture of heat insulating material;
• placing a number of said plurality of reinforcement members in said mold, with said number of reinforcement members forming at least a portion of a first outer surface of said block;
• introducing said fluid mixture into said mold with said number of reinforcement members;
• allowing said fluid mixture to harden within said mold;
• and
• removing said hardened fluid mixture from said mold, resulting in a block of reinforced heat insulating building material.

A method for making a heat insulated, reinforced block of building material comprising:

• providing a mold defining a volume equal to a defined configuration of said block of building material;
• providing a fluid mixture of heat insulating material formed from a composition of the following ingredients in approximately these proportions:
• a.) water glass 32-52% by weight, b.) sodium hydroxide 3-4% by weight, c.) filler 25-36% by weight, d.) iron silicon 20-22% by weight;
• providing at least one rigid reinforcement members, said plurality of reinforcement members each being an elongate channel including a center portion having sides and two side portions, each side portion connected to the respective sides of the center portion, said elongate channel being filled by said fluid mixture of heat insulating material;
• placing a number of said plurality of reinforcement members in said mold, with said number of reinforcement members forming at least a portion of a first outer surface of said block;
• introducing said fluid mixture into said mold with said number of reinforcement members;
• allowing said fluid mixture to harden within said mold;
• and
• removing said hardened fluid mixture from said mold, resulting in a block of reinforced heat insulating building material.
