Abstract: A prefabricated building system having a variety of structural bearing panels/frames shaped and designed for direct interconnection with one another. Each panel has an upper stud and a lower stud joined by at least one vertical stud. Only one vertical stud is used if the panel is to be joined, along the vertical edge that lacks a vertical stud, to another panel. The vertical edge having a vertical stud may or may not be interconnected to another panel. If the vertical stud is to be joined to the vertical stud of another panel, that stud must be designed for direct connection with that other panel. One such vertical stud is "" or "" shaped, carrying male connection elements for interconnection along the edge of a panel that does not have a vertical stud. The connection elements may also be carried by the upper stud, the lower stud, or by both the upper and the lower stud.

One such vertical stud is "" shaped, carrying male connection elements for interconnection along the edge of a panel that does not have a vertical stud. Another such vertical stud is "" shaped, and typically is used for perpendicular connection with a similarly shaped stud along the converging sides, i.e., the faces of the "V" portion.
