ABSTRACT:
A building frame construction for a light metal building. The frame utilizes a series of transverse sub-frame assemblies forming side wall columns and main roof beams. Purlins and girts extend longitudinally between and are attached to the sub-frames to provide support for the side wall and rool panels; end wall columns and girts are provided to support the end wall covering. Each sub-frame comprises a plurality of modular truss units which are interconnected to form the unitary assembly of the sub-frame. Each truss unit comprises two main beams interconnected by struts and braces; the main beams are each formed from two angles aligned in a facing relation with a slot down the middle to permit attachment of any number of purlins or girts at any point along the beam.
