A building is constructed substantially entirely from flat panel modules including a plurality of planar wall modules supported on a base and having at least one vertical load bearing member internal thereto extending from a bottom portion of the wall module to a top portion of the wall module in order to transmit the weight of a load above the module to the base. The load bearing member includes a conduit strut positioned between inner and outer surface members and free-standing conduit struts joining adjacent wall modules. The floor, ceiling and roof are each defined by a plurality of generally horizontal modules, each of which has either an upper or lower surface member, which is appropriately finished and at least one generally horizontal beam extending substantially the entire length of one module edge and positioned to support an unsupported edge of the adjacent module. A unique supporting system is provided for supporting the ceiling module and the roof rafters including a rafter bracket fastened to an end of each roof rafter, which is supported by a ridge bracket straddling a ridge beam, a compression strut between a central portion of each roof rafter and a portion of the subjacent ceiling rafter and a flexible tension member extending between the ceiling rafter and ridge bracket.
