Claim 13

The invention of claim 1 and including thermobreaks provided within the wall structure to function as an insulation against the transmission of temperatures from exteriorly to interiorly of the building structured wall.

Claim 14

The invention of claim 7 and including a series of piers for the building structure, the lowermost stacked wall form resting upon said piers and functioning as a base footing for the assembled building.

Claim 15

In a polymer building or other structured wall form wherein forms prefabricated of polymer and the like are constructed and assembled as wall forms, and braced into position for reception of concrete therein for creation of such a composite wall, the improvement which comprises, each wall form fabricated of an extensibly sized pair of sheets of polymer and spaced apart in the constructed wall a predetermined distance for forming a location for pouring of a quantity of concrete therein, each sheet of the pair having an inner surface, each inner surface being shaped to provide one-half of the configuration of an I-beam structure for any concrete poured therein, a series of spacer means disposed between each of the arranged sheets, and with said spacer means being connected for extending from the inner face of said sheets to provide a spacing therebetween for pouring of said concrete, said spacer means being located at predetermined distances from each other so as to provide in the wall form construction a latticework of communicating voids into which concrete may be deposited therearound to form a monolithic wall constructed of concrete and the polymer wall forms, the constructed wall incorporating therein a latticework of formed concrete for reinforcement of said formed wall and providing it with a degree of strength to function as a building wall, and for supporting of a roof or other structure thereon, said combination of the concrete latticework and the arranged polymer sheets and spacer means being integrally constructed into the formed wall for enhancement of its insulation, each spacer means comprising a spool-shaped means, and each spacer means formed of a spool having an inner core, a pair of flanges connecting to each end of the core, and said flanges being secured to the shaped inner surfaces of the inner and outer walls forming a wall form, adhesive means securing the outer surface of each spool flange to the inner surface of each liner of a wall form, said adhesive means comprising a double faced pressure sensitive adhesive applied to the outer surface of each flange of a spool means and arranged for connecting to the inner surface of each inner and outer liner of a wall form.
