Abstract
A building side panel assembly, roof panel assembly, and roof beam are provided for modular construction wherein the panel assemblies may be inter-connected by an interlocking means which are located on each of the edges of the panel assemblies. The side panel assemblies are assembled in an edgewise relationship to form a structural barrier such as a wall. The panel assemblies are formed with a hemmed and a non-hemmed leg, wherein the non-hemmed leg of one panel assembly is configured to interlock with a hemmed leg of another panel assembly.
