  • Patent number: 3950900
    Abstract: An eave strut clip for installation of roof insulation in metal building structures to prevent leaking of moisture from the eave strut back along the insulation. The clip comprises an elongated flexible metal strip having an outwardly extending flange at each end thereof for use in conjunction with an eave strut having a cross-sectional C-shape. The edge of the insulation is pulled into the open space of the eave strut, the clip being bent to conform to the inside surface of the eave strut and held in place by the resilient force of the clip thereby gripping and holding the edge of the insulation between the clip and the inside surface of the eave strut.

  • Patent number: 3945158
    Abstract: An eave strut clamp assembly for installation of roof insulation material in metal building structures to prevent leaking of moisture from the eave strut back along the insulation. The assembly comprises an elongated bar for fastening the insulation material to the inside surface of an eave strut having a cross-sectional C-shape and a plurality of elongated flexible clip members for holding the elongated bar in place. The edge of the insulation is pulled into the open space of the eave strut, the bar is placed against the insulation and the clip is bent to conform to the inside surface of the eave strut, the upper edge of the clip being in contact with the elongated bar for holding the bar in place, which in turn secures the edge of the insulation to the inside surface of the eave strut.
