ABSTRACT:
An insulated bar or panel, usable in walls, ceilings-floors or roofs, including new or used cans of metal, glass or plastic, preferably having lengths less than twelve times their diameters, containing insulation (preferably inexpensive insulation such as loose earth, pumice or crushed lava, tanbark, small lumps of pine or other bark, slightly charred sawdust, bits of charcoal or coke, preferably preservative treated cottonseed or rice hulls or the like, cotton linters or bolls, tufts of cotton or rockwool, or vermiculite). The cans, which for example may be of paint-containing or coffee-containing type, are end-joined in a line. They are imbedded in a shape-holding matrix of plastic material (preferably porous, foamed plastic or porous concrete of portland, epoxy or other cement, mixed with lightweight aggregate, thus forming a strong, elongated bar or panel. Each adjacent pair of the can-end caps are fastened together -- preferably by a band of adhesive tape encompassing the rims of the can ends, but optionally by solder, epoxy putty or other bonding material. Optionally, the cans may be in two sizes, with an end cap of each smaller can epoxy-glued or soldered in the end recess of an end cap of a larger can. The invention includes a wall (upright wall, ceiling, floor or roof) of the construction elements, laid with mortar between them, and stuccoed, plastered or painted on one or both sides, and a method of making it and the can-containing element.
