`So-.in'ter1ocked that it is not effected by Wind and storm and at the same time easily vllaid by the `use of unskilled labor.

vReferring'to ther drawings, 'Figure'l is a fragmentary cross'sectional view vvo'fa-fseries of panelssimulating shingles -fas Ithey Awould appear if laid on theroof.
`AFigure? is 'a longitudinal crosssectional view 'of a'panel, 'taken substantially 'on'the line'2-l2 of FigureB.

A pair of strips I2 and I4 :underlie member I0, :soasto provide a support such'that whenthe panel is laid on the-rafters I6 Without sheeting, vthe'panel's will be supported along three areas, namely, under the strip I2, under the strip Alli and underthe topedge I8.
This base member' Ill is preferably covered with -a ymetallic sheet El] that may be fluted or corrugated, asbest seenin Figure 4,.althoughnot necessarily so fluted or corrugated. The Y.top sheet-.maybe flat or contoured. The lower mar- ,gin isprovided-With a-ange .portion v22 merging .into a'reentrant flange. A suitable -piece `of packing or .insulating material 26 is positioned .in the channel-like portion vformed'betvveen the metallic sheet.2, theiflange 22 andthe reentrant .flange 1`2t.

'The distance "between .the v.flange ;34 and the, flange 138 "is substantially -equaltogthedstance fromthe packing strip-.'26
k.tothelovver edge 42.0f the'base member I0.
Asmaybest beseen .byireferring to Figure 1, .the.reentrantangezfl of zan upper panel hooks runder .the reentriantportion 32 :of a lower panel, :so as to v,causethe yiiange portion 34 to abut the packing or insulating material. A 'tongue 50, `initially extending directly upwardly "from the rafters. It andintegral therewith, is. bentr into the positionm shown in Figure .1 after a panel has -been,laid, so as to overlie-.or engage the terminal viiange 40, to lock the upperedge of the panel in position.
.Tongues ..56 are-struck out from the top Aportion ofthe .raftersand project upwardly from Itherafters. .These tongues 5,6 are used topprevent .the panels from sagging. This has been accomplished 'byllocating 4the tongues 56` between the upper edge A58 .of a' lower nparieland the flange "38 ofthe same panel. Bytliis arrangement'it may readily -be seen lthat iboth the upper-and lower edges of the panels are so interlocked with respect to the rafters and with respect to each other that the panels cannot be dislodged. Furthermore, these panels have been so constructed and arranged that they `may be laid upon the roof without the use of sheeting. For some purposes the width of the panel may be equal to the length of the roof. For other installations, it may be necessary to provide a series of panels along each tier or row. In order to prevent leakage, the metallic sheet 20 may have one side 6B extend beyond the base member I0, so as to overlap the adjacent panel. Caulking compound may be used, if found necessary, to seal the joints between adjacent panels in the same row.
Although the preferred embodiment of the device has been described, it will be understood that within the purview of this invention various changes may be made in the form, details, proportion and arrangement of parts, the combnation thereof and mode of operation, which generally stated consist in a device capable of carrying out the objects set forth, as disclosed and dened in the appended claims.
