Description
FACIA SYSTEM
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a facia system for buildings.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The facia is that part of a building where the roof terminates. Typically, most residences and relatively small commercial or industrial establishments utilise a sloping roof. The roof structure includes a plurality of rafters upon which a solid material such as plywood or the like is placed. Subsequently, the weatherproofing component is applied on top thereof, the weatherproofing component typically being asphalt tiles although sheet metal, shakes, other types of tiles, and composite materials are also utilised.
At the point where the rafters terminate, a facia is installed and extends along the ends of the rafters. Typically, the facia may comprise a wooden member and/or a metal member secured thereto. Typically, the metal member comprises an L-shaped member which extends along the facia and inward towards the soffit portion of the eaves.
One of the problems which is frequently encountered is the finishing arrangement such that water will not run back underneath the shingles or other material at the end of the roof. As a result, specially designed drip edges are frequently installed;
however, many of these drip edges do not function properly. Thus, it is well known by installers of gutters or eaves troughs that there is almost inevitably some water leakage between the back wall of the gutter and the facia.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
It is an object of the present invention to provide a facia arrangement wherein the problem with an effective drip edge is obviated.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a facia system wherein a facia member has an adjustable height.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a facia system which is aesthetic and easily installed.
According to one embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a facia system comprising a first member and a second member. The first member has an upper section designed for securement to a roof, and a drip edge formed at an extremity of the upper section. A second lower section includes a generally vertically extending portion, the generally vertically extending portion having first cooperative locking means associated therewith. The second member comprises a facia member having second cooperating locking means at an upper portion thereof, the first and second cooperative locking means being designed such that first cooperative locking means hold the facia member in position. The second member has a generally planer central portion and an inwardly extending flange arrangement at a bottom end of the generally planer portion which abut an adjoining soffit.
According to a further aspect of the present invention, there is provided in a building having a roof structure including a plurality of sloping rafters extending beyond an adjacent wall structure and which sloping rafters terminate in a facia, and wherein the rafters are covered by a roofing material, the improvement comprising a facia system, the facia system comprising a first member and a second member, the first member having an upper section secured to the rafters under the roofing material; a drip edge formed at an extremity of the upper section; a second lower section which includes a generally vertically extending portion, the generally vertically extending portion having first
