Benefits of technology

The present invention provides an environmentally friendly building system that promotes long-term carbon capture and sequestration of roofing and siding using recycled / upcycled, collapsed, preformed, and post-consumer plastic material. The system includes a plurality of interlocking tiles that form overlapping courses of laterally staggered roofing or siding. Each tile has a bottle and cap connector that holds the roofing or siding in place, with the bottle made from recycled / upcycled plastic. The system helps to reduce carbon dioxide emissions and promotes a green building movement.

Problems solved by technology

It has its merits in brooks, bathtubs, and drinking glasses, but in the form of rain and snow and ice it can be demoniacal.
Water driven by wind, icing, or capillary action defies gravity and flows upward, doing damage in hidden places.
Even though these innovations may be suitable for the specific individual purposes to which they address, nevertheless, they differ from the embodiments of the present invention in that they do not teach an environmentally friendly building system for promoting long term carbon capture and sequestration of roofing and siding by utilizing recycled / upcycled, collapsed, preformed, and post consumer plastic material.
Furthermore, even though these innovations may be suitable for the specific individual purposes to which they address, nevertheless, they would not be suitable for the purposes of the embodiments of the present invention as heretofore described, namely, an environmentally friendly building system for promoting long term carbon capture and sequestration of roofing and siding by utilizing recycled / upcycled, collapsed, preformed, and post consumer plastic material.

Abstract

An environmentally friendly building system (20) for promoting long term carbon capture and sequestration of roofing and siding by utilizing recycled / upcycled, collapsed, preformed, and post consumer plastic material (32). The system includes a plurality of tiles (22). The plurality of tiles (22) interlock with each other to form overlapping courses of laterally staggered roofing or siding (24). Each tile (22) includes a bottle (28) and a cap connector (30). The cap connector (30) of each tile (22) caps off the bottle (28) of an associated tile, and hooks into the bottle laying on top thereof so as to hold the overlapping courses of the laterally staggered roofing or siding in place (24). The bottle (28) of each tile (22) is made from recycled / upcycled, collapsed, preformed, and post consumer plastic material (32) for promoting the long term carbon capture and sequestration of the laterally staggered roofing or siding so as to be environmentally friendly.

Description

1. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]A. Field of the Invention[0002]The embodiments of the present invention relate to a roofing and siding system, and more particularly, the embodiments of the present invention relate to an environmentally friendly building system for promoting long term carbon capture and sequestration of roofing and siding by utilizing recycled / upcycled, collapsed, preformed, and post consumer plastic material.[0003]B. Description of the Prior Art[0004]1The greatest enemy of roofs and walls is water. It has its merits in brooks, bathtubs, and drinking glasses, but in the form of rain and snow and ice it can be demoniacal. Pelting water penetrates and infiltrates. Water driven by wind, icing, or capillary action defies gravity and flows upward, doing damage in hidden places. 1Roofs and Siding, William Frankel, Library of Congress catalogue card number 77-090094, Time-Life Books Inc., Chicago, Ill., 1979, Second Printing, Page 7.[0005]Through the ages, ways to build...
