Abstract

A building system includes a plurality of building panels which are connected together to form a wall structure and are then connected to roof panels to form a roof structure. Each of the panels is formed by rotational molding to form a hollow body. The hollow body can be filled with a foamed insulation material. Side edges of the hollow body include either a projection or a correspondingly shaped recess which has a web and a bulbous part of increased width on the outer end of the web so that the panels can be connected only by longitudinal sliding movement. Metal plates are embedded in the top and bottom surfaces for connection to metal plates in the roof panels and to a footing respectively. A rib on the front surface of the panel has a width of the order of one third of the width of the panel and extend from the front surface of the panel substantially equal to the thickness of the panel so as to provide sufficient longitudinal strength in the panel that the weight of the roof can be supported wholly upon the panels. Corner, window and door panels are provided to complete the system.
