Patent attributes
A fully recoverable modular steel footing and beam system that allows installation of the rapidly deployable prefabricated folding building system on a wide variety of substrates, including bare earth, existing asphalt, and existing concrete. The substrate may show deviation from level and still be accommodated. The invention also includes three-part folding haunch and ridge braces allowing braces to ship attached to building panels resulting in minimal handling, reduced weights, and ability to install roof and walls separately. Roof weight is reduced and so can be handled with a forklift or telehandler, as the only heavy equipment needed to erect the building. Flashings are insulated, factory cut, and drilled for bolts, in alignable pattern to bolt-receiving rivets installed in the corrugated siding and roofing. Bolts and bolt installation locations are color coded.
