Abstract
An unitized monocoque enclosure for housing electronic equipment, as in a communications system central office, has side, top and bottom panels of corrugated metal. The panels comprise a continuous envelope for the structure and themselves constitute the structural support for electronic equipment shelves and the electronic equipment mounted thereby, which shelves are supported by screw members directly into a corrugation of the side panels. No additional, uprights, frame supports or braces are utilized. The resultant structure is both simple to fabricate and achieves improved earthquake resistance.
