ABSTRACT:
This application discloses a system of construction that uses as its main component, a flat panel member similar to a standard 2.times.8 timber with both edges beveled at a 45.degree. angle in opposite directions with an interlocking female recess in one of the 45.degree. sections and an interlocking male extrusion on the opposing 45.degree. section. These components may be assembled to provide: (1) a straight narrow wall by reversing adjacent panels and sliding male extrusions and female recesses together, (2) assembly of two adjacent panels to form an angle by sliding male extrusion and female recess together without reversing the sections, (3) forming a U channel by sliding three sections together in a similar manner, (4) sliding four sections together in a similar manner to form a square, hollow beam section. For beam assembly purposes, identical matching female type grooves are provided in the outer face of the basic panel toward either edge of the outer face so that the beams, when assembled together, may be locked in alignment by double male splines which are inserted in the adjacent female grooves at assembly. Walls, floors, ceiling and roofs of a building as well as interior walls and drape walls, may thus be fabricated from a single component and the double male spline insert. Horizontal beam section will be used at header and footer levels of vertical wall sections for post stressing and chases for wiring harnesses and plumbing assemblies. Insulated thru wall ducting is provided throughout the structure.
