PRELOADED STANDARDIZED WALL SECTIONS ASSEMBLED WITH SHEET METAL MEMBERS

摘要

Wall sections fabricated from sheet metal components are preloaded in a press by an amount of pressure equivalent to that which the wall section will be subjected when used in constructing weight-bearing walls in a building structure. Sheet metal load distribution members (7, 8) having "C", "L", or "Z"-profiles may be used in conjunction with the wall sections in wall construction.
