Abstract

There is provided a roof cladding consisting of elements (10) of recycled plastics, material comprising a body portion (11), a batten engagement porti on (12) located at the leading edge (14) of the body portion (11) and a batten back stop (13) being a transverse rib located on the underside of the body portion (11) at a spacing from the batten engagement means (12) determined b y the pitch or spacing of the roofing battens (15). The batten engagement portion (12) comprises a downward depending web (16) adapted to bear on the up- slope face of the roofing batten (15), and a lower web (17) extending therefrom to lay adjacent the under surface of the batten (15) in use. The edge of the lower web (17) toward the leading edge (14) is provided with a locking lug (20) in the form of a ridge adapted to pass the batten (15) against the resilient bias of the downward depending web (16) and the lower web (17), to engage the leading face of the roof batten (15). The clearance between the body portion (11) and the lower web (17) is such that the space accommodates the trailing edge (21) of an adjacent roofing element (10) to trap the trailing edge (21) between the underside of the body portion (11) a nd the batten (15). Further installed security is provided by the backstop (13) engaging the upper leadingedge of the adjacent batten (15).

Claims (17)

1. A cladding method including the steps of:
installing spaced, substantially horizontal battens on a structure to be clad;
installing a cladding member having a body portion having an inner and an outer surface and extending from a leading edge to a trailing edge between opposed side edges, and a batten engagement portion disposed on said inner surface toward said leading edge and adapted to retain said body portion against leading and outward movement relative to a leading batten engaged thereby; and a batten stop portion associated with said inner surface toward the trailing edge thereof and adapted to bear on a leading face of an adjacent trailing batten, the batten engagement portion and body portion adjacent said leading edge being mutually configured to retain the trailing edge portion of an adjacent cladding member to said leading batten; and progressively installing further said cladding members to clad said structure.
2. Cladding method of claim 1, wherein the structure is selected from an internal or external wall, a roof or a ceiling.
3. Cladding apparatus including:
a body portion having an inner and an outer surface and extending from a leading edge to a trailing edge between opposed side edges;
a batten engagement portion disposed on said inner surface toward said leading edge and adapted to retain said body portion against leading and outward movement relative to a leading batten engaged thereby; and a batten stop portion associated with said inner surface toward the trailing edge thereof and adapted to bear on a leading face of an adjacent trailing batten, the batten engagement portion and body portion adjacent said leading edge being mutually configured to retain the trailing edge portion of an adjacent cladding member to said leading batten.
4. Cladding apparatus according to claim 3, wherein said body portion is in the form of discrete elements selected from roof tiles or sheet, board-like cladding members, or shingles, or a continuous roll or strip element.
5. Cladding apparatus according to claim 3, wherein said body portion is of a form selected from generally planar, corrugated or profiled.
6. Cladding apparatus according to claim 5, wherein said body portion is profiled in a manner that permits stacking of the roofing elements for transport.
7. Cladding apparatus according to claim 4, wherein said body portion is in the form of discrete elements having side edges being mutually configured to permit overlap between adjacent elements across the pitch of a roof or width of a wall.
8. Cladding apparatus according to any one of claims 3 to 7, and formed of a moldable or extrudable plastics material.
9. Cladding apparatus according to claim 8, wherein said plastics material is selected from stabilized recycled plastic.
10. Cladding apparatus according to claim 3, wherein said batten engagement portion and batten abutment means each extend substantially across the underside of the cladding member body portion.
11. Cladding apparatus according to claim 10, wherein said batten engagement portion is interrupted to allow the installation of the element about the battens between the wall studs or roof truss elements.
12. Cladding apparatus according to claim 10, wherein said batten engagement portion is configured to provide for mutual interengagement with a correspondingly configured batten.
13 13. Cladding apparatus according to claim 12, wherein said mutual interengagement is provided by providing a batten including a recess formed on the intended trailing edge thereof, and wherein the batten engagement portion includes a projection in the leading direction that is adapted in use the engage the recess.
14. Cladding apparatus according to claim 13, wherein said recess comprises an elongate slot into which an elongate projection may be forced against the resilient bias of the material of the batten about the slot, the inner end of the slot being provided with an enlarged cross section into which a correspondingly formed edge of the elongate projection may clip.
15. Cladding apparatus according to claim 13, wherein said elongate projection and the elongate recess are mutually configured whereby the cladding member may be slid laterally into engagement with the batten member.
16. A roofing method comprising the steps of:
providing a plurality of gutter elements which each include a roofing body having an integral gutter portion at a leading portion of the body, the body having batten engagement means defining a recess opening toward said leading portion and adapted to locate behind and under a roof batten and a locking lug adapted to engage a leading face of said batten under resilient bias thereof installing said plurality of gutter elements in laterally overlapping relation along a first roofing batten by engagement of said batten engagement means with said first roofing batten and extending to overlay a second roofing batten;
providing a plurality of roofing bodies each having a leading edge, batten engagement means defining a recess opening toward said leading edge and adapted to locate behind and under said second roof batten and the trailing edge of a said gutter element, and a locking lug formed on said batten engagement means and adapted to engage a leading face of said second batten under resilient bias thereof;

installing said plurality of roofing bodies in laterally overlapping relation on said second rooting batten; and continuing to install said roofing bodies on subsequent roofing battens in tike manner to complete a roofing surface.
17. A roofing member including;
a roofing body having a leading edge;
batten engagement means defining a recess opening toward said leading edge and adapted to locate behind and under a roof batten and the trailing edge of an adjacent roofing tile overlaying said batten; and a locking lug formed on said batten engagement means and adapted to engage a leading face of said batten under resilient bias thereof.
