Zusammenfassung:The present invention is directed to improved composite action walls having an insulation wythe (70) sandwiched between structural wythes (60, 80). The structural wythes provide the load-bearing function and prevent the collapse of the wall under high wind loads. The structural wythes demonstrate composite action existing between the structural wythes such that an improved, stronger and less expensive wall may be constructed. The present invention is also directed to an insulation wythe, which is useful in the composite action wall of the present invention, having grooves (72) formed therein such that the material of the structural wythes flow into the groove to form a mechanical bond between the structural wythes and the insulation wythe. The walls of the present invention are simple to manufacture and provide a verifiable and consistent composite action between about 50 % to about 100 % composite action.
