<p>A saddle 20 comprising two spaced apart pockets, the first pocket 21 for engaging a wall and the second 7 for engaging and supporting a planar component, preferably an insulation panel (14, fig 3). Preferably, the saddle is a plastics moulding or formed of wire. Also claimed is a building system comprising at least one T-beam (11, fig 3) spanning two walls, wherein each end of the T-beam is supported on a load bearing thermally insulating component (30, fig 3) between the underside of the T-beam and the wall beneath the T-beam, and a plurality of saddles with first pockets situated between the T-beam and the wall. Preferably, the first pockets lie between the thermally insulating component and the wall. Also claimed is a saddle (1, fig 1) for supporting a beam, the saddle comprising a thermally insulating pad (2, fig 1) including a downwardly projecting element (4, fig 1) for engaging a structural element and an upwardly projecting element (3, fig 1) for engaging a supported beam.</p> |
