Definitions
- ABSTRACT A panel for the constructing of a building exterior comprising facing material secured to a sheathing so as to be contiguous with one end edge of the sheathing and to approach the opposite end edge of the sheathing in spaced relation to provide a blank space.
- Such panels are joined in end-to-end overlapping relation with the sheathing of one panel disposed in the blank space provided at the opposite end edge of the other panel over the sheathings of the other panel and with the facing material contiguous with the one edge of the one panel disposed in the blank space provided at the opposite end edge of the other panel and in sideby-side relation with the facing material of the other panel.
- the present invention relates in general to panels for the construction of a building exterior, and more particularly to panels for the construction-of a building exterior employing an overlap joint between adjacent end edges of the panels.
- the sheathings were disposed in endto-end abutting relation with facing material disposed in the space adjacent to and over the joined end edges.
- This arrangement did not provide the ultimate in waterproofing seals or structural strength. It has been found that abutting end edge joints were rather difficult to seal against water seepage.
- the strength of the roof was determined by the strength of the facing material. The shutter shake overlying the abutting end edges had rough under-surfaces and coupled with the space between the contiguous end edges, rain was able to seep into the structure.
- a panel for the construction of a building exterior in which each panel comprises a layer of facing material secured to a sheathing strip adjacent one end edge thereof and approaching an opposite end edge thereof in spaced relation to provide a blank space and in which panels to be joined are disposed in end-to-end overlapping relation with the sheathing strip of one panel disposed over the sheathing of the other panel in the blank space of the other panel and with the facing material of the one panel that is adjacent to the one end edge of the one panel adjacent to the facing material of the other panel that is spaced from the opposite end edge of the other panel.
- an improved weatherproofing or waterproofing joint is provided. With overlapping of sheathing over sheathing, there are two relatively smooth surfaces confronting one another as distinguished from a shutter shake surface confronting a sheathing surface. As a consequence thereof, water seepage through the panels is reduced.
- FIG. 1 is a plan view of a panel for the construction of a building exterior embodying the present invention.
- FIG. 2 is a plan view of a sheathing employed in the panel shown in FIG. 1.

- FIG. 9 is a side elevation view of the end-to-end overlapping panels shown in FIG. 8.
- prefabricated panels 20 and 20a of the present invention are joined together for the construction of a building exterior. It is to be understood that in the exemplary embodiment, the prefabricated panels 20 and 20a and panels similar thereto are joined in a horizontal overlapping relation for the construction of a building exterior in the manner described in the aforementioned U.S. Pat. No. 3,440,777 (Reissue 27,502) or in the manner described in the aforementioned application, Ser. No. 236,259, after the sheathing strips of the panels have been joined in an end-to-end overlapping relation to form a series of horizontal extending panels.
- the panels 20 and 20a are similar in construction and function. Hence, the panel 20 will be described in detail with like parts of the panel 20a designated with a suffix a.”
- the panel 20 comprises a waterproof sheathing strip 21, which in the exemplary embodiment, may be a sheet of plywood weather treated for waterproofing by glue, a plaster coating or the like.
- the sheathing strip 21 is a relatively thin sheet of plywood in the neighborhood of 3/8 inch or 5/16 inch plywood to provide sufficient flexibility in the panels during the installation thereof to form a building exterior.
- the facing material 25 may comprise one of the following facing materials: shingles, shakes, tiles, peeler strips, veneer, asbestos composition and the like.
- the facing material 25 has the upper edges thereof spaced downwardly a selected distance from the upper edge of the sheathing strip 21, such as 2 inches-3 inches, and has the lower edge thereof extending beyond the lower edge of the sheathing strip 21 a selected distance, such as 6inches-8inches.
- the facing material 25 has an end edge disposed contiguous to or adjacent to an end edge X ofthe sheathing strip and continues therefrom to approach in spaced relation the end edge Y of the sheathing strip 21, thereby providing a blank space BS between the corresponding end of the layer of facing material and the end edge Y.
- the width of the blank space BS shown by the arrows in FIG. 3 is in the neighborhood of 3 inches.
- the panel 20a is joined to the panel 20 by end-to-end overlapping of the sheathing strips (FIGS. 3 and 4).
- the end edge Xa of the sheathing 21a of the panel 200 is disposed on the sheathing strip 21 of the panel 20 in the blank space BS so that the sheathing strip 21a overlaps the sheathing 2].
- the end edge Xa of the panel 21a is adjacent the last unit of the layer of facing material 25 of the panel 20 so that the first unit of the layer of facing material 25a is disposed to overlie the blank space BS of the panel 20.
- prefabricated panels 40 and 400 which are modifications of the panels 20 and 20a previously described.
- the ends of the adjacent panels 40 and 400 are joined together in overlapping relation for the construction ofa building exterior.
- the prefabricated panels 40 and 40a and other panels similar thereto are also joined in a horizontal overlapping relation for the construction of a building exterior in the manner described in the aforementioned U.S. Pat. No. 3,440,777 (Reissue 27,502) or in the manner described in the aforementioned application Ser. No. 236,259, after the panels are joined in an end-to-end overlapping relation as disclosed in the present application to form a series of horizontally extending panels.
- the panels 40 and 40a are similar in construction and function. Hence, the panel 40 will be described in detail with like parts of the panel 40a designated with a suffix a.
