Abstract
This invention relates to a building construction and method and a kit therefor wherein preferably a spaced front and back end panels are provided with spaced guide blocks positioned on the end panels for receiving therebetween purlins which extend between the end panels. Preferably a templet is used to determine the silhouette of the panels and the position of the guide blocks. The purlins are attached to each of the end panels and are guided to and supported in the correct position by the guide blocks. This construction is relatively simple and inexpensive by minimizing the requirement of fabrication of subassemblies such as rafter supports and the like.
