Can you identify this building system?
(OP)
Hi guys.
This building was constructed in the mid 80s and I'd like to find out what the system is called. It basically consists of what looks like double wall insulated gauge metal panels that snap together for the roof and walls. There is a grid of 2.5"x2.5"x0.25" angle at ceiling level with 3/8" rod x-bracing each bay. The same angle is used to form props along the ridgeline every 12 feet or so. There is no other structural steel in the system. This building is in Alberta Canada.
Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure just how much money you save using a system like shown above, but I don't like the result so it would have to be a particularly massive savings to make it worth it.
