I just visited a resturant building that is an aluminum framed structure. It was reportedly constructed originally by a company called Aluminum Structures, Inc., from Deptford, NJ. Does anybody have information on these buidings such as copies of original plans or specs?

It is a simple structure, but there are no collar supports, and I'm wondering how it is still standing. It is at least 30 years old.
