Benefits of technology

[0011] The subject invention relates to an improved building construction panel used to protect the outside surfaces of a building from all forms of weather related damage. The subject panel is treated to be moisture proof, weather resistant, fire resistant, not attractive to insets, fungus and / or mold and uses only environmentally friendly materials. The construction of the subject panel promotes the rebounding of objects striking its outer surface without damage to the panel.

Embodiment Construction

[0015] Referring now to the drawings, FIG. 1 is a section through a building panel 10 constructed in accordance with the principles of the present invention. The panel is formed as a laminate by a first corrugated member 12, an intermediate foil layer 14, a second corrugated member 16, and outer foil layers 18, 20. The corrugated members 12 and 16 are formed of preferably double walled composition material, paper, or plastics material treated to have water repelling characteristics, fire retardant characteristics, anti-fungal and anti-mold characteristics. Most importantly for the present invention, the outer foils provide rebound characteristics for objects striking the panel.

[0016] Preferably the subject panel 10 will be made with one member 12 or 16 of test “B” fluting (corrugations ⅛″ apart, or 8 per inch) and the other member 12 or 16 of test “C” fluting (corrugations {fraction (5 / 32)}″ apart or 5 per inch). Each of these members would have a bursting strength of approximately...

Abstract

An improved building construction panel used to protect the outside surfaces of a building from all forms of weather related damage is formed from two layers of corrugated members bonded to either side of an intermediate insulative sheet. The subject panel is treated to be moisture proof, weather resistant, fire resistant, not attractive to insets, fungus and / or mold and uses only environmentally friendly materials. The construction of the subject panel promotes the rebounding of objects striking its outer surface without damage to the panel.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. The Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention pertains to an improved building cladding panel for use on roofs and / or walls of buildings to provide an outer surface substantially impervious to any form of weather related damage, including rain, sleet, snow, and hail. [0003] 2. The Prior Art [0004] There has been a long-standing problem in the roofing industry of providing roofing materials which not only have a substantial life time, but which will be resistant to damage from all forms of weather, such as hail. The annual damage to roofs by hail storms is significant and costs the insurance industry a great amount of money in roof repairs and / or replacements. What is needed is a building panel which not only provides the required water resistance, but which will also provide protection for the roof, and other external surfaces of the building, from damage from other weather causes, such as hail and wind blown debris.
