Abstract
A modular wall panel for manufacturing an exterior wall is made from a substantially flat rectangular insulating foam core having two opposite surfaces, two opposite side edges, a width defined by the opposite side edges, opposite top and bottom edges, and a length defined by the top and bottom edges. The panel also has at least one elongated longitudinal support stud and at least one elongated transverse stud, each mounted to the foam core. The first side edge of the panel has a first face extending between the opposite surfaces and the second side edge has a second face extending between the opposite surfaces. Each face defines an elongated first channel when the first face of one panel is abutted against the second face of an adjacent panel and the first channel has an elongated first cavity and an opening extending to the first surface of the panels.
