A building panel constituting a prefabricated module for attachment to adjacent studs of a building wall. When used in substitution for conventional stucco construction, the metal frame of the panel is filled with cement stucco. Tabs on the sides of each panel include inwardly projecting legs nailable to the sides of the adjacent studs for concealed attachment. The legs are all laterally offset from the panel sides in the same direction, for nailing from the same direction, and they are also longitudinally or vertically offset so that like panels can be successively butted together at their side edges without interference between the legs of the respective tabs. The panel can also be provided with connection brackets for attachment to the top or bottom plates of a building wall. In normal use the panels are vertically oriented, but they are adapted for transverse mounting to the building wall studs and headers in certain situations.
