SIDING OR ROOFING PANEL SYSTEM

摘要

A panel for attachment to a mounting surface includes a plurality of raised faces formed and extending between an upper edge and a lower edge of the panel, and a plurality of recessed keyways defined between each of the raised faces. The panel may have a recessed base at the lower edge of the keyways defining a fold lip adjacent the mounting surface, and a full base formed at the lower edge of the raised faces and extending beyond the recessed base. The fold lip provides a reaction point for an under lap extending from the lower edge toward the upper edge. The panel may include a lock flange formed at the upper edge. The lock flange defines a lock slot between layers of the panel, and closes the lock slot to substantially zero depth at a first touch point and a second touch point.

1. A panel configured for attachment to a mounting surface, comprising:
a plurality of raised faces formed and extending between a lock edge and a butt edge of the panel; a plurality of recessed keyways defined between each of the raised faces, such that the raised faces and the keyways define a plurality of elements spaced at an average element distance; a recessed base formed at the keyways adjacent the butt edge, wherein the recessed base defines a fold lip adjacent the mounting surface; a full base formed at the raised faces adjacent the butt edge, wherein the full base extends further than the recessed base; and an under lap extending from the full base toward the lock edge, wherein the fold lip is configured to provide a reaction point for the under lap.
