Abstract: A coping system for parapet is comprised of three separate components, a plurality of cleats, a plurality of chairs and a plurality of caps. The cleats are secured to the parapet at spaced intervals and each cleat supports a corresponding chair. Each cap extends between at least two cleats and chairs. Adjacent caps are spaced from each other forming a gap between the caps with the gap being located directly above the chair. The chair forms a gutter for routing water away from the top of the parapet. The chair biases the cap away from the parapet to maintain the engagement between the cap and the cleat. All three components are made entirely of metal providing a sealed joint between adjacent caps without the use of organic compounds.

Abstract: A roofing system having preferred metallic roofing panels overlying a roof structure or a substrate (such as a waterproof membrane) includes a mat of loosely-woven ventilation mesh material between the panels and the roof structure or substrate in order to provide proper ventilation, thus minimizing corrosion resulting from condensed moisture. The mesh is preferably composed of an extruded thermosetting plastic material.

Abstract: An assembly is provided for sealing and capping an edge construction on a building structure wherein a facing, composed of masonry or other materials, is placed along a back wall, generally in a face-to-face relationship. The edge sealing or coping assembly seals and caps the interface and joint or space between the facing and the back wall and accommodates variances in the facing depth and/or the spacing between the facing and the back wall along the perimeter of the building.

Abstract: A reglet or flashing assembly includes a termination bar member with a snap-on resilient flashing and accommodates longitudinal expansion without leakage at longitudinally-adjacent joints, as well as providing for such a snap-on flashing or skirt component that only requires installation forces that are directed toward the wall, thus avoiding adverse effects on sealants, water-proof membranes, or other wall surface panels or structures. In at least one version, the reglet assembly also accommodates irregularities along the surface of the wall, such as high or low points or recesses resulting from masonry mortar joints.

Abstract: A sheet material assembly for forming a fascia assembly, raised roof edge assembly, coping assembly, or other such building component assembly, is disclosed. Such assembly includes at least a longitudinally-extending generally vertical outer face member, and frequently a longitudinally-extending, generally vertical inner face member spaced laterally away from the outer face member with an intermediate member disposed between the spaced-apart inner and outer face members to interconnect the inner and outer face members. Preferably, both or at least one of the face members has a flange portion located generally at an upper edge, with the intermediate member or an adjacent portion of the face member being secured to the flange portion. Such an assembly facilitates the forming of an angulated configuration, or a curved arcuate configuration, in order to form a "corner" portion of the assembly.

Abstract: An assembly is disclosed for forming a raised roof edge on a building structure that preferably has a generally horizontal roof and a geneally vertical outer face. The assembly includes a dam member for forming a water dam or gravel stop and a fascia member. Preferably, the dam member is a one-piece structure, including a clamping and retention portion and a vertical intermediate portion, and biases and secures the fascia member into a relatively tight and rattle-free interlocking installation on the dam member. Preferably, a roofing material is gripped and held against the dam member as a result of the biasing forces of the clamping and retention portion and the intermediate dam portion. The roof edge assembly thereby provides an improved water dam or gravel stop structure that securely retains the roofing material on the roof of the building structure without penetrating the roofing material, at least along the roof surface.

Abstract: An assembly is disclosed for forming a raised roof edge on a building structure that preferably has a generally horizontal roof and a generally vertical outer face. The assembly includes a dam member for forming a water dam or gravel stop, a fascia member, and a separate clip member interposed therebetween for resiliently biasing the fascia member into a relatively tight and rattle-free interlocking installation on the dam member. Preferably, a roofing material is interposed between the clip member and the dam member and is frictionally secured and anchored therebetween as a result of the resilient snap-on engagement of the fascia member on the clip member and the dam member. The roof edge assembly thereby provides an improved water dam or gravel stop structure that securely retains and protects the roofing material on the roof of the building structure.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to a roof edge assembly for use in forming a raised edge or gravel stop on a roof. The disclosure also relates to a framing structure useful for framing windows and doors; and to a mounting assembly for securing building panels, curtain walls, partitions, siding and the like to building surfaces. The nailerless roof edge of the present invention eliminates the need for the piece of wood or nailer which is normally bolted to the top of a cement block wall for the purpose of fastening metal roof edges. The present roof edge assembly comprises a tab strip member which is adapted to be secured adjacent the edge of a roof using adhesive or other attaching means and which has special tab means thereon. The assembly further comprises a cant member having slot means therein adapted to mate with the tab means to secure the cant member to the tab strip member, and a fascia member which is adapted to be mounted on the cant member.

Abstract: A roof edge assembly includes a resilient member secured to the roof structure of a building. The resilient member has at least one sloping portion protruding upwardly and inwardly and serves to mount and support a fascia member on the edge of the roof structure. The assembly also functions to anchor the periphery of a sheet-like roofing material as well as acting as a gravel stop or barrier preventing water and other substances from falling off the edge of the roof.

Abstract: A retainer clamp membrane fastening system is disclosed particularly adapted for retaining elastomeric membrane materials in position on a building roof. Various embodiments are described which may be attached to an upwardly projecting wall around the roof or which may be mounted directly to the roof perimeter. Each of the retainer clamp assemblies includes a core member which is fastened to the roof or wall surface. The core member has a pair of outwardly projecting arm portions. The membrane material is placed over the core member and a retainer clip is clipped over the membrane. The retainer clip includes leg sections having converging and diverging sections. The converging section conforms with the shape of a portion of the core member arms; the diverging sections engage with teeth of a clamping piece which fits over the entire assembly. The retainer clamp assembly according to this invention is inexpensive, attractive and reliable in preventing wind and water leakage of the roof.
