A lightweight composite building module capable of being readily attached to other correspondingly shaped modules for providing a wall of a building. The module includes a pair of spaced elongated wooden side boards joined by a wooden top board. The side boards have right angle cutouts removed from the inside corners thereof producing upper and lower horizontally extending ledges. Polyurethane foam is provided in the cavity defined by the side boards and top boards with said foam extending below the lower horizontally extending ledges. Elongated wooden bolts extend between the top boards of adjacent stacked modules drawing said modules tightly together under compression so that the top board of the next lower module compresses the foam extending below the lower horizontally extending ledges of the module carried directly therebelow producing a rigid sealed joint therebetween.
