ABSTRACT:
A structural framing member having a base and two opposing side walls projecting from the base in a direction approximately perpendicular to the base. Each side wall has an intermediate flange which is approximately parallel to the base and which divides each corresponding side wall into a lower portion and an upper portion. The lower portion is offset from the upper portion by a distance equal to the width of the intermediate flange. A distance between the lower portions of the side wall is greater than a distance between the upper portions of the side wall. Each side wall has an upper flange directed inward toward each other. Each upper flange has a terminal end portion which is angled downward toward the base and is approximately perpendicular to the upper flange. The terminal end portions are spaced apart from each other thereby defining a continuous slot along a longitudinal axis of the structural framing member. Two structural framing members are positioned on opposing sides of a panel. The panel is supported by and secured to the two opposing structural framing members to form a prefabricated panel structure.
