Description

A COVERING FOR A BUILDING COMPONENT The present invention relates to a covering for a building component and in particular to an adhesively attachable covering for a lintel.
When constructing a building it is desirable in certain circumstances to include ornate or interesting feature pieces which add to the overall effect of the building or conform the building io the architectural style of those around it. These details are often associated with windows or doors in a building and may take the form of arches or surrounds. Such details were traditionally constructed on site and using traditional brick construction methods which is both time consuming and requires a high degree of skill and craftsmanship. Modern approaches to forming such feature elements involve the installation of a suitably shaped lintel onto which brick or other masonry coverings are attached to provide a finished effect which is aesthetically composed of masonry relevant to the building and conforms to the shape of the lintel therebehind.
Most commonly, these masonry coverings come in the form of brick slips which are relatively thin brick components fitted to a lintel to provide the required shape and aesthetic. Brick slips can be adhesively bonded to the lintel via a suitable adhesive and current solutions also provide cut-outs in the lintel. This allows a portion of the adhesive to pass there through and form a mechanical gripping formation on the backside of the lintel, further enhancing the grip the adhesive has on the lintel. While this addresses the grip with respect to the bond between the lintel and the adhesive, the bond between the brick slip and the adhesive is often just dictated by the interface of the adhesive and the brick slip which can sometimes be inadequate due to a surface which may be too smooth, too polished, or too powdery. This then becomes the weakest link in the assembly.
It is an object of the present invention to obviate or mitigate the problem of providing a masonry slip for attachment to a building component by and adhesive which has sufficient grip at the interface between the adhesive and the masonry slip.
