Abstract

Abstract A cabinet for use with electrical equipment and the like is fabricated as a particularly lightweight and stiff structure and includes a bottom flat frame part and a top flat frame part. Upstanding fastening cleats are rigidly attached to short sides of the frame parts at right angles to the planes of the frame parts. Two box-section end walls having open top and bottom ends are positioned over the cleats and are removably fastened thereto. The sheet material of the fastening cleats is corrugated. The corrugations are directed to right angles to the plane of the frame parts for engagement with the interior and exterior sheets of the end walls.
