Structural cladding members.

摘要

A cladding member for structures comprises a panel (10) and a frame (11) of interconnected metal members (21,22,23) to which the panel (10) is connected. The connection is such to allow relative movement between the frame and the panel in order to accommodate differential expansion. Where the panel is of concrete, this can allow the use of frames to support the concrete panel, so reducing the volume of concrete needed and making the panels lighter and easier to handle. <IMAGE>
