ABSTRACT:
A prefabricated section for a building having a concrete slab floor with a concrete rim elevated relative thereto and spaced inboard a relatively short distance of the slab periphery. Walls are provided which are supported by metal beams which extend upwardly from the rim and have adjacent wooden beams. A ceiling member is provided which is supported by girders which are supported, in turn, by the metal beams. The girders also support the roof so that it is spaced a substantial distance above the ceiling. Insulation is provided immediately above the ceiling and against the inner wall sheets, the insulation being spaced from the roof and outer wall sheets. The upper ends of the metal beams have hoist connection members for receiving through closable openings in the roof hoisting cables and hooks for raising and moving the section. The walls, ceiling and roof are composed of materials which are light in weight compared to the concrete slab so that the center of gravity of the section is low. The concrete slab extends under the walls and the metal beams which support the walls are structurally connected to the slab either directly or through horizontal beams so that in hoisting the section via the beams, tension and compression stresses on the section are minimal.
