A building construction unit and a method of constructing a building using wall and ceiling panel assemblies that are made up of traditional framing materials, such as studs and interior walls, coated with insulating foam, except that the typical exterior sheathing is optional. Because the panel assembly is structurally sound and thermally insulated, the only reason to install an exterior sheath or additional roofing material is for aesthetic or practical purposes.

1. A method for erecting a structure, comprising: providing first studs, the first studs each having an interior side and an exterior side;attaching first standoffs to the interior side of each of the first studs;providing a first panel, the first panel having a first end, a second end, an interior face and an exterior face;providing second studs, the second studs each having an interior side and an exterior side;attaching second standoffs to the interior side of each of the second studs;providing a second panel, the second panel having a first end, a second end, an interior face and an exterior face;providing a first panel assembly by connecting the exterior face of the first panel to the first standoffs to define spaces between the exterior face of the first panel and the interior sides of the first studs;providing a second panel assembly by connecting the exterior face of the second panel to the second standoffs to define spaces between the exterior face of the second panel and the interior sides of the second studs;adjoining the first panel assembly to the second panel assembly, comprising the steps of: placing the first end of the first panel directly adjacent to the first end of the second panel to define a first juncture;covering with the layer of insulating foam the exterior face of the first panel and covering the exterior face of the second panel;filling with the layer of insulating foam the spaces defined between the exterior face of the first panel and the interior sides of the first studs, and filling the spaces defined between the exterior face of the second panel and the interior sides of the second studs; andwrapping the layer of insulating foam over the first end of the first panel and over the first end of the second panel to cover the first juncture to join the first panel directly to the second panel; andallowing to cure the layer of insulating foam, whereby a sealing envelope of insulating foam coats and connects the first panel assembly to the second panel assembly; andapplying continuously a layer of insulating foam to the adjoined panel assemblies; wherein applying continuously the layer of insulating foam comprises: covering the exterior face of one of the panels, covering the top of a sole plate; and covering the face of a concrete or concrete masonry unit foundation stem wall; thereby to seal a connection between one of the panel assemblies and a foundation. 2. A method for erecting a construction unit, comprising: providing first studs, the first studs each having an interior side and an exterior side;attaching first standoffs to the interior side of each of the first studs;providing a first panel, the first panel having a first end, a second end, an interior face and an exterior face;providing second studs, the second studs each having an interior side and an exterior side;attaching second standoffs to the interior side of each of the second studs;providing a second panel, the second panel having a first end, a second end, an interior face and an exterior face;providing a first panel assembly by connecting the exterior face of the first panel to the first standoffs to define spaces between the exterior face of the first panel and the interior sides of the first studs;providing a second panel assembly by connecting the exterior face of the second panel to the second standoffs to define spaces between the exterior face of the second panel and the interior sides of the second studs;placing the first end of the first panel directly adjacent to the first end of the second panel to define a first juncture; andapplying continuously a layer of insulating foam, comprising: covering the exterior face of one of the panels, covering the top of a sole plate; and covering the face of a concrete or concrete masonry unit foundation stem wall; thereby to seal a connection between one of the panel assemblies and a foundation;covering the exterior face of the first panel and covering the exterior face of the second panel;filling the spaces defined between the exterior face of the first panel and the interior sides of the first studs, and filling the spaces defined between the exterior face of the second panel and the interior sides of the second studs; andwrapping the layer of insulating foam over the first end of the first panel and over the first end of the second panel to cover the first juncture to join the first panel directly to the second panel; whereby a sealing envelope of foam coats the first panel assembly and the second panel assembly. 3. The method of claim 2 further comprising: providing third studs, the third studs each having an interior side and an exterior side;attaching third standoffs to the interior side of each of the third studs;providing a third panel, the third panel having a first end, a second end, an interior face and an exterior face;providing a third panel assembly by connecting the exterior face of the third panel to the third standoffs to define spaces between the exterior face of the third panel and the interior sides of the third studs; andplacing the first end of the third panel adjacent to the second end of the second panel to define a second juncture; wherein the step of applying continuously a layer of insulating foam further comprises: covering the exterior face of the third panel;filling the spaces defined between the exterior face of the third panel and the interior sides of the third studs; andwrapping the layer of insulating foam over the first end of the third panel and over the second end of the second panel to cover the second juncture; whereby a sealing envelope of foam covers the first panel assembly, the second panel assembly, and the third panel assembly. 4. A method for erecting a construction unit, comprising: providing first studs, the first studs each having an interior side and an exterior side;attaching first standoffs to the interior side of each of the first studs;providing a first panel, the first panel having a first end, a second end, an interior face and an exterior face;providing second studs, the second studs each having an interior side and an exterior side;attaching second standoffs to the interior side of each of the second studs;providing a second panel, the second panel having a first end, a top end, an interior face and an exterior face;providing a first wall by assembling a first panel assembly by connecting the exterior face of the first panel to the first standoffs to define spaces between the exterior face of the first panel and the interior sides of the first studs;providing a second wall by assembling a second panel assembly by connecting the exterior face of the second panel to the second standoffs to define spaces between the exterior face of the second panel and the interior sides of the second studs;placing the first end of the first panel directly adjacent to the first end of the second panel to define a first juncture;installing a foundation comprising reinforced concrete;situating the first and second panel assemblies on the foundation; andapplying continuously a layer of insulating foam, comprising: covering the exterior face of one of the panels, covering the top of a sole plate; and covering the face of a concrete or concrete masonry unit foundation stem wall; thereby to seal a connection between one of the panel assemblies and the foundation;covering the exterior face of the first panel and covering the exterior face of the second panel;filling the spaces defined between the exterior face of the first panel and the interior sides of the first studs, and filling the spaces defined between the exterior face of the second panel and the interior sides of the second studs; andwrapping the layer of insulating foam over the first end of the first panel and over the first end of the second panel to cover the first juncture to join the first panel directly to the second panel; whereby a sealing envelope of foam coats the first panel assembly and the second panel assembly. 5.
