ABSTRACT:
A contruction member, usable in exterior or interior walls, ceilings or floors, including: a stiff, planar, can-supporting panel or board; cylindrical or otherwise non-rectangular, parallel-axes cans having end covers fixed to the panel or board, these cans being preferably of metal but optionally of dense, strong plastic or glass, of the new or used type, having lengths that are less than twelve times their diameters; optional insulation inside the cans; large-mesh metal or plastic fencing, fixed to can ends; and porous, insulating, strength-providing adhesive material around portions of the can sidewalls, bonding and bracing the cans together into a bar, panel or block, part of this material being in layers within recesses of the can-end covers that are spaced from the panel or board. The cans may be sealed or opened at one end; and the gaseous material in them may be air or other gas, or mixed gas and insulation, such as low-cost cinders or ashes, preservative treated bits of cotton or linters, charred sawdust, tanbark, bits of bark sold as mulch, vermiculite, foamed plastic, bits of rockwool, or the like. The porous, adhesive, insulating material around the cans may be poured thru the large mesh of the fence-type fabric into the spaces between portions of the can sidewalls. The part of it that lodges in the porous, insulating, stucco-holding layers in recesses of the upper can-end covers may be leveled off by a tool with an elongated straight edge. The portion of this material which lies between can-sidewall portions has a depth less than the lengths of the cans, so that after it has set and the construction member is removed from the mold it may be transported to a building site, and there joined with other, similar articles in a wall comprising wall-finishing material; for example stucco may be troweled or sprayed onto it, penetrating spaces between can sidewalls in tongues and adhering to the layers of porous material that are in recesses of can-end covers. The invention comprises a method of making the contruction members.
