An attachment means for mounting a building component onto a building structure 4, comprising a structure mountable portion 3 removably attachable to component portion, e.g. window facia 2, wherein in use the component portion entirely covers the mountable portion in use. The fastening means comprise complementary interlocking formations which may be integrally formed with each portion. The structure mountable portion 3 may have a U-shaped channel (5, Fig. 2) with integral hook portions 10 for sliding engagement with corresponding engagement portions on the base 14 of a complementary U-shaped channel 13 of the component portion. Alternatively the interlocking formations may be in the form of snap-fit type clip formations 20 with restraining arms 21, 22 formed on respective portions (See Fig.s 9-11). The structure mountable portion may be attached by a fastening 9, e.g. a screw, to the building 4. The attachment means may be glass fibre or carbon fibre reinforced plastic. There is a separate independent claim for an attachment means with a resiliently deformable clip connector. |
