ABSTRACT:
A strong, light-weight foamed weight bearing structural member having insulating properties and withstanding atmospheric erosion is formed by introducing a plurality of hollow bodies with shells thereabout into a molten mass of refractory material as a foaming agent and freezing the hollow bodies in place. These shells provide color, strength and texture characteristics to the structural member and may be steered non-uniformly such as near the outer surface to provide toughness, texture, or color, preferably by electrically charging the bodies and establishing an electric field in the molten mass of refractory material.
