ABSTRACT:
An arrangement for interconnecting and supporting a pair of hexagonal building structures includes a pair of common support columns each having a hexagonal shaped connector tube mounted to an upper end thereof. Each connector tube includes apertures in each of the six lateral walls thereof which are adapted for receiving a nut and bolt combination for coupling the tube to the eave beams and roof trusses of two hexagonal building structures. The nut and bolt combinations are hidden from view within the connector tube and adjacent beams to provide a clean, attractive appearance and are not exposed to the elements. The use of common support columns and a common eave beam for adjacent hexagonal building structures simplifies assembly, reduces the number of structural components and building cost, and integrates two or more of such building structure for increased structural strength.
