1. A modular building system comprising:
a plurality of rigid connectors; a plurality of prefabricated exterior panels; wherein each of the rigid connectors is fixedly attached to one or more of the prefabricated exterior panels; plural fasteners for fixedly attaching the rigid connectors to the prefabricated exterior panels by passing one or more of the fasteners through at least one of the rigid connectors and the prefabricated exterior panels; wherein the prefabricated exterior panels comprise prefabricated exterior wall panels and prefabricated roof panels; wherein the plurality of rigid connectors comprise rigid footing to exterior wall connectors interconnecting footings to the prefabricated exterior wall panels, rigid wall to roof connectors for connecting the prefabricated exterior wall panels to the prefabricated roof panels, and roof ridge connectors for connecting two of the prefabricated roof panels; wherein a plurality of the angled wall to roof connectors are connected to the prefabricated exterior wall panels and the prefabricated roof panels, and the roof ridge connectors are connected to the roof panels to form a rigid roof truss, with the prefabricated exterior walls giving support to said roof truss; wherein the exterior wall panels are connected to the roof truss to form a continuous rigid structure that serves as the support structure of a building, wherein the roof ridge connector comprises two channel-shaped beams which receive and within which channels fit upper edges of the prefabricated roof panels, the two channel-shaped beams having contacting lower corners welded together and having a top flat strap welded between upper corners of the channel-shaped beams. |
