The invention provides pre-fabricated self-contained building panels, including a panel incorporating a truss structure (600, 666, 700, 722, 850) as a part thereof, and combinations thereof. The panels include skeletal assembly (10A) comprising generally an array of plural structural steel channels (16), rigid sheeting (32) proximate to said channels, support members (34) adjacent the rigid sheeting, the channels supported between suitable base plates (18, 20), angles (30, 24) for defining portions of said skeletal assembly and a forming structure (10B) as a part of said skeletal assembly, said skeletal assembly and forming structure being oriented horizontally on a planar surface. A self-hardening material, such as concrete, clay, etc. is introduced to the forming structure for embedding at least a portion of said skeletal assembly. The forming structure becomes an integral part of the completed building panel and is not disassembled therefrom. Angles are included as a part of the skeletal assembly for defining receiving chambers for self-hardening material such as concrete, clay and the like. A building truss (600) including a pair of double-angle struts (608, 610) and a web-reinforcement bar (618) threaded therealong, as well as rigid sheeting (618) arranged to define a receiving chamber for the self-hardening material, is provided and combined as a part of the above mentioned building panels. A moulding (549) and means to enable press-seating thereof in a wet concrete wall are disclosed as is a flexible brick facing (536) also pressed into a wet concrete wall. A water-stop (101 and 101') is provided for cooperation with said building wall panels. The skeletal structures function as permanent molds for the panels and truss structures. |
