A stud panel and method of making a stud panel where interior sheathing
may be a temporary piece of transparent plastic or a permanent panel of
sheet rock so as to retain insulation in place and minimize scarfing. The
stud panel may include studs having through holes extending in a length
direction of the stud panel such that insulation in adjacent inner
regions separated by such studs interlock with each other and contribute
to a structural integrity of the stud panel. The stud panel may include a
space between inner studs and one of the exterior and interior sheathing
so as to provide a thermal and sound break between the exterior and inner
sheathing so as to minimize heat, air and sound transfer between the
exterior and interior sheathing. A method of making the stud panel is
further disclosed, where such a method may include the step of
incrementally introducing insulation from a closed end of an inner region
to an open end of an inner region and may further include the step of
automatically introducing insulation into the inner regions of the stud
panel.
