ABSTRACT:
A load bearing pre-fabricated building construction panel comprises a main body portion of length "L", a thickness "T", and a width "W". A sheet metal outer skin is disposed substantially at the exterior of the main body portion and has opposed front and back portions adjoined by first and second side portions to form a substantially hollow core, with an insulative material disposed within the substantially hollow core. The building construction panels are connected one to a next substantially similarly oriented one in first side to second side relation. In a first embodiment, a first substantially rigid overlapping securing flange extends outwardly from the front portion of the construction panel past the first side portion, for fastening in overlapping relation to a first adjacent construction panel of similar orientation. A second substantially rigid overlapping securing flange extends outwardly from the back portion of the construction panel past the second side portion, for fastening in overlapping relation to a second adjacent construction panel of similar orientation. The building construction panel, including the first and second substantially rigid overlapping securing flanges, has an overall width "W.sub.o ". In a second embodiment, a rib member is secured to each of the front and back portions of the sheet metal outer skin so as to span therebetween in bracing relation, and extends substantially the length of the main body portion.
