A multi-storey building frame is constructed by manufacturing portal frames off site and transporting them to the site and erecting them to form a high precision building frame in an accurate manner. The method involves placing a series in a longitudinal direction of portal base frames, the base frames each having a pair of opposed wall frames, a structural ceiling frame, and a lower tie or structural frame spanning the wall frames at or near ground level. Sheeting is secured across the tops of the base frames. A series of portal top storey frames is placed over the sheeting to form a frame for a top storey and a roof, each said top storey frame comprising: a pair of opposed wall frames, a roof truss, and a lower tie or structural frame.

A building truss including a structural floor element, a vertical support on each side of the structural floor element, rafters spanning the vertical supports, a structural horizontal tie which interconnects the rafters, and a roof peak on the horizontal tie. A building is constructed by erecting multiple trusses parallel to each other in sequence in a longitudinal direction spanning one gable end to the opposed gable end. Each building truss defines the full room and roof spaces and provides the required structural strength. Each truss defines a 2D envelope; the floor element spanning in the horizontal direction, vertical supports for the vertical direction, and a roof assembly joining the two vertical supports. Each truss is unitary and constructing the multiple trusses parallel to each other provides a 3D structural building envelope.
