The kit came with some reinforcing strips that are intended to be glued along the inside at the bottom of each of the walls. As I was building a unique structure out of this kit, there was not enough for the whole building but I did use them along most of the walls except for the back wall that had been made from the roof material.
When I purchased the 24 inch long .040 sheet styrene for the roof, I also picked up some .250 x .250 styrene strip that was 24 inches long. This was used to provide reinforce the back wall along the bottom. This was also used to provide something for the roof to rest on along the back wall.
This .250 x .250 strip material was also used to support the roof and columns were added in the middle of each horizontal beam. From the photo below, these strips can be seen on other areas as well.
