Abstract:
A building system comprising: multiple cement foundation blocks; multiple steel girders; multiple steel floor joist assemblies; multiple steel pier posts; multiple steel wall frame assemblies; multiple steel gable end roof trusses; multiple steel intermediate roof trusses; multiple insulated floor panels; multiple insulated wall panels; and multiple insulated ceiling panels; said cement foundation blocks being equally spaced apart from each other and positioned at predetermined locations on an excavated ground surface, said steel girders being equally spaced apart from each other and positioned on top of said cement foundation blocks, said cement foundation blocks and said steel girders having a spanning relationship, said steel floor joist assemblies being aligned side-by-side and positioned on top of said steel girders, said pier posts each having a top end and a bottom end, said top end of each said pier posts having an attachment bracket for fixedly attaching each said pier posts to one of said steel girders, said bottom end of each said pier posts being embedded into a hole within said ground surface with said hole being filled with cement, said steel wall frame assemblies having attachment means for fixedly attaching said steel wall assemblies to said floor joist assemblies, said steel wall assemblies having attachment means for fixedly attaching said steel wall assemblies together, said steel gable end roof trusses having attachment means for fixedly attaching said steel gable end roof trusses to said steel wall assemblies, said steel intermediate roof trusses having attachment means for fixedly attaching said steel intermediate roof trusses to said steel wall assemblies, said insulated floor panels being adapted to be slidably positioned, fixedly attached and supported upon said steel floor joist assemblies, said insulated wall panels being adapted to be slidably positioned, fixedly attached and supported upon said steel wall frame assemblies, said insulated ceiling panels being adapted to be slidably positioned, fixedly attached and supported upon said trusses; whereby:said pier posts provide support for said steel girders, said steel floor joist assemblies, said steel wall frame assemblies and said trusses, thus allowing workers to continuously assemble said building while said cement is curing.
