Benefits of technology

[0002]Buildings comprising a steel frame on which pre-formed panels are mounted may be erected quickly and more cheaply than buildings with brick or block facades.

Problems solved by technology

One of the problems with buildings constructed from pre-formed panels is that such panels can often be uninteresting aesthetically.

Embodiment Construction

[0031]Referring to the drawings there is illustrated a composite cladding panel 1 according to the invention. The panel 1 comprises a steel skin or backing tray 2 and an external steel skin 3 with a layer of foam insulation material 4 such as a phenolic or polyurethane based foam material therebetween. The panel may be of any suitable type such as that described in our UK2325678A, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference.

[0032]One of the skins, in this case the external skin 3 has a plurality of tongue and mortise blocks 5 such as those available from Novabrick fastened to the panel 1 by fasteners 12. Each fastener 12 in this case is a clamping fastener and comprises a peel rivet having a mandrel, a stress plate, and a main body. We have found that such a clamping fastener is particularly efficient in fastening such blocks to the panel.

[0033]Pilot holes 13 are first drilled through the blocks 5 and the rivet 12 is inserted. On operation of a rivet gun the ma...

Abstract

A composite cladding panel 1 comprises a backing tray 2 and an external skin 3 with a layer of foam insulation material 4 such as a phenolic or polyurethane based foam material therebetween. One of the skins, in this case the external skin 3 has a plurality of tongue and mortise blocks 5 fastened to the panel 1 by fasteners 12. Each fastener 12 comprises a peel rivet having a mandrel, a stress plate, and a main body. Pilot holes 13 are first drilled through the blocks 5 and the rivet 12 is inserted. On operation of a rivet gun the main body curls up 22 and is clamped against the inside surface of the external skin 3. The blocks 5 are thereby efficiently and effectively clamped to the external skin 3. A composite insulating panel with an integrated high performance brick cladding is provided.

Description

INTRODUCTION[0001]The invention relates to a composite cladding panel of the type comprising an inner skin and an external skin with insulation foam material therebetween.[0002]Buildings comprising a steel frame on which pre-formed panels are mounted may be erected quickly and more cheaply than buildings with brick or block facades.[0003]One of the problems with buildings constructed from pre-formed panels is that such panels can often be uninteresting aesthetically. It is known to form such panels with various profiles and in various colours, however, there is still a need to provide an aesthetically different façade in some cases.[0004]This invention is directed towards providing a panel system which will address this need.STATEMENTS OF INVENTION[0005]According to the invention there is provided a composite cladding panel comprising an internal skin and an external skin with insulation material therebetween, one of the skins having a plurality of tongue and mortise blocks mounted ...
