ABSTRACT:
A method of erecting a weather resistant transportable building enclosure is disclosed. The method includes the steps of assembling a plurality of elements to form a roof ridge, assembling a plurality of panel supporting elements to form girders of a predetermined length extending laterally from the roof ridge and pivotally attaching girders to the roof ridge. The next step is to raise the roof ridge a predetermined amount and to further attach the girders to the roof ridge to rotationally fix the pivotal attachment. At this stage a roof skeleton has been formed. Then panels can be attached onto said roof skeleton to form a load supporting roof. A final step is to simultaneously raise the roof, attach a plurality of elements to form side wall columns, and secure a plurality of panels onto the columns to form side walls for the enclosure. The enclosure is comprised of an internal rigid load supporting framework and an external load supporting surface. The external surface is made from rigid transparent building panels which transmit solar light and heat into the building enclosure. Each panel has a width greater than its height and is supported by the rigid framework along its side edges. The panels also have openings in their lower edge to flexibly retain the adjacent lower panel therein.
