Wall insulation systems and stanchion

摘要

Disclosed is a wall system and a method of fabricating that wall. The system uses a stanchion, or bracket. The bracket is installed between the outer flanges of the structural girts that make up the wall and a wall panel. The tabs create space between the girt and panel that enables insulation to be spread out into the additional space created. This reduces heat losses in the wall.

主权项

1. A wall system comprising:
a plurality of horizontal support members; a wall panel having at least one inwardly-extending channel; a plurality of stanchion brackets disposed between the horizontal support members and the wall panel, and laterally spaced apart along each of the horizontal support members, wherein each stanchion bracket comprising a laterally extending support bar and a tab extending outwardly from the support bar, the support bar having at least one opening configured to secure the stanchion bracket to the wall panel, the tab having an opening that is offset from the at least one opening of the support bar and is configured to secure the stanchion bracket to a respective one of the horizontal support members; a blanket of insulation disposed over the horizontal support members, portions of which are compressed between the horizontal support members and the support bar of each of the stanchion brackets; and wherein the horizontal support members and the inwardly-extending channel are displaced with respect to each other by at least the length of the tab and wherein the length of the tab is sufficient to allow a thickness of the blanket of insulation to be compressed between the horizontal support members and the inwardly extending channel.
