Abstract:
A metal building system has multiple spaced building sections connected by inner and outer batten panels. Each building section has two spaced frame elements connected by inner and outer skin panels. The frame elements have two walls and a roof. The batten and skin panels have a metal layer that faces away from the frame elements and an insulation layer that faces the frame elements. The skin panels are seamed to the frame element, and the batten panels are seamed to the skin panels such that there is no metal to metal contact between the frame elements, the skin panels and the batten panels. Each building section can be assembled at ground level, rotated to a final upright position and anchored.

Claim (Index 17):
A metal building system comprising:\n a foundation having a substantially flat floor and two laterally spaced, longitudinally extending sets of spaced base rails that project upwardly relative to said floor, a plurality of longitudinally spaced building sections each having two longitudinally spaced frame elements, inner skin panels and outer skin panels, said frame elements each including two laterally spaced wall portions each having a lower end and an upper end, and two roof portions that each connect to said upper end of one of said wall portions and extend upwardly and inwardly, said roof portions connecting to each other at a roof peak opposite said wall portions, each of said wall and roof portions having an inner frame chord with an inner edge having a shaped inner flange, a spaced outer frame chord with an outer edge having a shaped outer flange and a plurality of struts connecting said inner and outer chords, said wall portions and said inner and outer chords of said wall portions being spaced to receive said base rails at said lower ends, said inner skin panels extending between said wall portions and between said roof portions of said frame elements, said inner skin panels having two spaced side edges, said inner skin panels including a metal layer and an insulation layer attached to and coextensive with said metal layer, said insulation layer facing towards said wall and roof portions, said side edges each having a seam that connects said inner skin panel to said inner flanges of said wall and roof portions of said frame elements with said insulation layer separating and spacing said metal layer from said inner flanges, said outer skin panels extending between said wall portions and between said roof portions of said frame elements, said outer skin panels having two spaced side edges, said outer skin panels including a metal layer and an insulation layer attached to and coextensive with said metal layer, said insulation layer facing towards said wall and roof portions, said side edges each having a seam that connects said outer skin panel to said outer flanges of said wall and roof portions of said frame elements with said insulation layer separating and spacing said metal layer from said outer flanges, inner batten panels extending between said wall portions and between said roof portions of said frame elements of adjacent building sections, said inner batten panels having two spaced side edges, said inner batten panels including a metal layer and an insulation layer attached to and coextensive with said metal layer, said insulation layer facing towards said wall and roof portions, said side edges each having a seam that connects said inner batten panel to said inner flanges of said wall and roof portions of said frame elements with said insulation layer separating and spacing said metal layer from said inner flanges, and outer batten panels extending between said wall portions and between said roof portions of said frame elements of adjacent building sections, said outer batten panels having two spaced side edges, said outer batten panels including a metal layer and an insulation layer attached to and coextensive with said metal layer, said insulation layer facing towards said wall and roof portions, said side edges each having a seam that connects said outer cladding panel to said outer flanges of said wall and roof portions of said frame elements with said insulation layer separating and spacing said metal layer from said outer flanges, whereby said insulation layers on said inner and outer skin and batten panels thermally isolate said inner and outer skin and batten panels from said frame elements, and said inner and outer skin and batten panels create dead-air space for improved resistance to heat transfer.
