Abstract
A painting structure for use as, by way of example, a paint spray booth or paint baking or drying oven, utilizes a trapezoidal cross-section, instead of the conventional rectangular/square or rectangular-gabled cross-section. The painting structure of the present invention provides inherent rigidity without the need for special framing, and provides more uniform air flow than a gabled roof structure, as air swirls in air pockets beneath the gables are eliminated. Due to the simplified construction, the trapezoidal cross-sectional booth of the present invention is less expensive to make and install and more easily erected.
