A method of constructing a building having at least two storeys using building panels each comprising a low density core contained within a surrounding support cage. The method comprises the following steps: i) preparing a foundation; ii) erecting vertical first storey columns at spaced apart locations around the foundation; iii) constructing vertical walls from building panels located between said vertical columns and a horizontal ceiling from building panels extending from adjacent top edges of the vertical walls; iv) rendering the wall panels and ceiling panels to form a rigid structure; v) fitting vertical second storey columns to the tops of said first storey columns; and vi) repeating steps (iii) and (iv) to complete the second storey. |
