ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a ridge fitting for rapidly and securely connecting adjacent roof panels of a modular building together at an angle to one another. The ridge fitting comprises a thin wall having panel receiving channels on opposite sides thereof. The section of thin wall between opposite channels is formed of a suitable light transmitting polymer such that the thin wall serves as a sunroof, allowing sunlight to pass therethrough to provide illumination of the interior of the building. The material selected for the thin wall of the ridge fitting also provides flexibility to allow the angle between the adjacent roof panels to be varied to suit the specific requirements of a particular application.
