MicroHouse Interior Walls
These are extensible to exterior walls and due to Product Service System design, we can extend the requirement to include both cases.
Requirement
- Main challenge resolved - integration into spaces where the modules do not have an exact fit. Solution requirement:
- Make it fit initially to the most lax tolerance
- Utilize a wrapper - an interface piece that can be adjusted in size readily. Follows Extreme Manufacturing principles.
- Need a wrapper for sides, flat ceiling, inclined ceiling, and adjacent modules
- Test-driven Contract-First Requirement
- flat surface for meeting with other wall or brick sections
- flat surface for stacking for thickness. Base width is that of a 2x6. Therefore doubled up, it is 2x12 exuivalent.
- Usable as exterior walls - upon doubling and extending with plywood.
- Usable with any size window of 42"x90" or smaller frame
- Usable as a wall unit (exterior or interior), bookshelf, window, or door unit
- 3/8" plywood face, painted on outside
- Detachable with exposed fasteners that can be accessed for deconstruction
- Caulked at right angle seams if necessary
- Fully insulated air tight when joining adjacent panels
- Allow for slanted sections under roof
- Uses R19 fiberglass batts - ex [1]
- Uses 2"x6" lumber, integrating with 2"x6" being used for all other structural components.
- Layers 2 framed sections to achieve any width necessary, such as 15" for exterior wall.
- Fittable with brick interior
- Standard panel size of 4'x8', though 4'x7" in the present case due to lower ceiling height
- Integrate with outer wood walls in that outer walls involve doubling + spacing of inner wall panels
- Applicable in nature to inner and outer walls.
- Integrated via flat face to window and door panels.
- One side is finished and painted upon install. Insulation inside, and second side is open. Closing panel is pre-painted.
- Straightness is enforced via plywood edge
- Extensible in thickness via spacing and larger plywood
- Stackable in height
- Extensiblle in lenght via layering
- Allow for ready addition of modules without having to redo surface finish - by having a flat edge surface, and creating a flat face.
