ABSTRACT:
A portable building system of variable size (20) consisting of a series of individually collapsing web beam frames (22) which serve simultaneously as a support structure for the exterior covering material (30) and as a support structure for a highly adaptable interior furnishing system. Individual web beam frames (22) are comprised of multiple segments including vertically oriented outer segments (32) which have a width measured horizontally in the plane of their span sufficient to support furnishing components 26 substantially within an area directly between a pair of consecutive outer frame segments 32 in a strong and convenient manner. Additional overhead segments (34) are joined to each other and to outer segments (32) with corresponding mortise (36) and tenon (38) like surfaces for a fast and positive assembly. Purlins (24) attach to the frames, joining them in sequence. Individual bays are formed between the wide vertical outer segments (32) of any two sequential frames (22) and these bays are then easily customized with the desired interior furnishing components (26) such as desks, counters, shelves, benches, bunks, and tables. Horizontal furnishing components (26) may be optionally installed at various heights between the opposing surfaces of the wide outer segments (32) of any two consecutive web beam frames. The furnishing components (26) once installed thereby become integral to the overall structure of the building. The purlins (24) also provide support for optionally used insulating liners (44) which are independent of the primary exterior cover.
