Claim 1
Independent Claim
152 words
An improvement in an exterior load bearing wall construction having horizontally spaced vertically stand-ing studding and outer and inner wall portions supported thereon, said improvement comprising the formation of said outer wall portion consisting of at least two layers of insulating board and at least one layer of insulating batting and an exterior surfacing material, a plurality of closely spaced scallops formed in the inner surfaces of said studding to form narrow transverse areas therebetween, said inner wall portion comprising dry wall and the like positioned against said narrow transverse portions of said studding, upper and lower plates positioned on the upper and lower ends of said studding, said outer wall portion extend-ing only partially into areas of said wall construction between said studding so as to provide air spaces between said outer wall portion and said inner wall portion and openings in said inner wall portion for ventilating said air spaces.
