An assembly for erecting a building structure on a floor comprising: a floor for a building comprising a plurality of floor joists and a plurality of floor plates thereon; a front section for fastening to one end of said floor; a back section for fastening to the opposite end of said floor; a plurality of intermediate sections for fastening to said floor each of said plurality of intermediate sections including a pair of wall sections and a roof section, said roof section joined to each of said pair of wall sections to form an A-shaped rigid intermediate section for assembling into a building structure, each of said intermediate sections having a side for joining with another intermediate section, said side of said intermediate section having a filler member thereon to provide spacing between adjacent intermediate sections so that when said intermediate sections are joined together they coact to provide a raceway for conduits, said intermediate sections having a bottom plate and a side member, said side member extending past said bottom plate to engage one of said floor joists when said intermediate section is in an erected position on said floor; means for holding said floor joists and said side member which are in engagement with one another in an integral relationship to thereby form a rigid connection between said floor joists and said intermediate section side member so that said floor and said intermediate section form an integral structure; said intermediate sections, said front section and said back section coacting to provide an enclosure over said floor, each of said intermediate sections having a stud framework with a sheet of material extending partially along said framework so that said stud framework intermediate section is exposed for access, said sheet of material extending sideways past said stud framework so that when said intermediate sections are assembled to each other said sheet of material overlaps an adjacent intermediate section to prevent gaps between adjacent intermediate sections.
