Abstract
An insulated sheathing panel comprises an insulating member and a facing. The insulating member has two adjacent edges formed by a portion of its thickness extending beyond two corresponding adjacent edges of said facing. Two other adjacent edges of said insulating member in the said relative thickness portion are recessed within two corresponding edges of said facing. When the panels are applied to a stud wall, their edges are ship-lapped, with edges of the facings in abutted relation so there is not thermal break at the panel seam. “Z”-shaped clips or elongated bars are used to secure panels to the stud wall. The panel facings are finished and no vapor barrier is required. Methods are included.

-
an insulating member having a thickness, two sides and a plurality of edges;
a mesh reinforced cementitious facing adhered to one of said sides of said insulating member, and having a plurality of edges;
one edge of said insulating member defined by a flange comprising a portion of said thickness spaced from said facing and extending outwardly beyond an edge of said facing, and another edge of said insulating member defined by a recess in the same portion of said thickness beneath and spaced from said facing. - View Dependent Claims (11)

12. A method of erecting a stud wall with a plurality of sheathing panels comprising an insulating member and a facing with respective insulating member extensions and recesses along panel edges, said method comprising the step of:
-
applying one sheathing panel to a stud wall; and
applying a second sheathing panel to said stud wall adjacent said one sheathing panel such that portions of an insulating member of one of said panels overlaps portions of an insulating member of another of said panels, while adjacent edges of said panels are disposed in abutting relation. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
