ABSTRACT:
In a building construction having adjacent wall panel sections which are joined together at an exterior angle exceeding 180 degrees, an improved means is provided for supporting and joining the wall sections. A metallic channel member forms a portion of the joining edge of each wall section. Each channel member has one side wall which is bent inwardly towards its base section, and this inwardly bent side wall is secured underneath the exterior panel member so that the base section of the channel member in cooperation with the joining edge of the exterior panel member forms a substantially continuous joining surface.
