A skin-panel sub-frame panel having spaced, upper, lower and lateral edges, designed to occupy an upright plane adjacent the outside of a plural-story building frame, with a vertical dimension which is substantially the same as inter-floor story-height in the frame.

A skin-panel sub-frame panel having spaced, upper, lower and lateral edges, designed to occupy an upright plane adjacent the outside of a plural-story building frame, with a vertical dimension which is substantially the same as inter-floor story-height in the frame. The sub-frame includes (a) an elongate beam component defining the sub-frame's upper edge, and (b) plural interconnect-accommodating site structure sets formed in and distributed along the length of that component organized with (1) a first, upwardly facing set, and (2) a second inwardly facing set, which sets define orthogonally intersecting interconnect planes. Each first set accommodates a position-stabilizing, load-transferring inter-sub-frame interconnection between a pair of vertically next-adjacent sub-frames, and each second set accommodates a similar interconnection between a sub-frame and building infrastructure which is located within the mentioned building frame. Elongate lateral extension structures interconnect the panels with poured-in-place floor structure disposed within the associated building frame.

I claim: 1. A generally planar, rectilinear, skin-panel sub-frame having spaced, upper, lower and lateral edges, and designed to occupy, along with other like sub-frames, an upright plane adjacent the outside of a plural-story building frame, and to possess a vertical dimension which is substantial
I claim: 1. A generally planar, rectilinear, skin-panel sub-frame having spaced, upper, lower and lateral edges, and designed to occupy, along with other like sub-frames, an upright plane adjacent the outside of a plural-story building frame, and to possess a vertical dimension which is substantially the same as inter-floor story-height in the frame, and where the frame supports building infrastructure in the form of plural, poured-in-place concrete, vertically spaced floor structures, said sub-frame comprising an elongate beam component defining the sub-frame's upper edge, and plural interconnect-accommodating site structures formed in and distributed along the length of said elongate beam component, including a first, upwardly facing site-structure set, and a second, laterally inwardly facing site-structure set, said first and second site-structure sets defining orthogonally intersecting interconnect planes, said first site-structure set accommodating a first position-stabilizing and load-transferring inter-sub-frame interconnection between a pair of vertically next-adjacent sub-frames, and said second site-structure set including plural bores formed in said elongate beam accommodating a second position-stabilizing and load-transferring interconnection between a sub-frame and a floor structure in the mentioned building infrastructure, and said second position-stabilizing and load-transferring interconnection, for each of said bores, taking the form of an elongate, unitary, generally horizontal load-transfer element in the configuration of a rod having one end affixed to said sub-frame's elongate beam component within a bore therein, and having its opposite end embedded within a floor structure. 2. The sub-frame of claim 1, wherein inter-sub-frame interconnection is established through structure which permits a limited amount of in-plane vertical and horizontal relative movement between vertically next-adjacent sub-frames. 3. The sub-frame of claim 1, wherein each elongate rod is formed of rebar, having one end thereof threaded for threaded fixing within a bore. 4. A plural-story building structure comprising a main frame including laterally spaced, upright columns defining, nominally, an outside, upright, generally planar main frame expanse, plural, poured-in-place concrete, generally evenly vertically spaced, substantially horizontal and planar floor structures operatively supported by said columns and including lateral edges disposed inwardly adjacent said columns, plural, modular, generally planar, skin-panel sub-frames having perimeter edges, and arranged in row-and-column, edge-by-edge, vertical and lateral next-adjacency, each sub-frame possessing a vertical dimension which is substantially the same as an integer multiple of the vertical spacings existing between said floor structures, and including an elongate, overhead, substantially horizontal beam component, said beam component including plural laterally facing bores formed on an interior, relative to said building structure, side thereof, and generally horizontal load-transfer structure including elongate, generally horizontal load-transfer elements anchorably linking, at said bores, said sub-frames and said floor structures generally in the planes of said floor structures, and substantially normal to the planes of said sub-frames, and extending generally normal to the nominal plane of said outside, main-frame expanse, said load-transfer elements each having one end anchored to a sub-frame's said overhead beam component, and its opposite end extending through an edge of, and embedded within, a floor structure. 5. The structure of claim 4, wherein, relative to the interface which exists between vertically next-adjacent sub-frames, there are provided plural, anchoring, connector structures extending vertically between and interconnecting these sub-frames. 6. The structure of claim 5, wherein said anchoring, connector structures engage vertically next-adjacent sub-frames in a manner permitting a limited amount of vertical and horizontal, in-plane relative motion therebetween. 7. The structure of claim 4, wherein said horizontal load-transferring elements includes, for each bore, an elongate rod fixed within said bore and extending into and embedded in said floor structure. 8. The subframe of claim 7, wherein said elongate rod is formed of rebar, having one end thereof threaded for threaded affixing within a bore.
