COUPLING SYSTEM INTENDED FOR USE BETWEEN CLADDING AND STRUCTURAL ELEMENTS SUPPORTING SAME

摘要

The invention relates to a coupling system for use between cladding and structural elements supporting same, said cladding comprising thin sheets (3) of alloys or composite materials. The facing surfaces of the sheets (3) and the structural elements (1 and 2) bear means for coupling said sheets and structural elements, which means are formed by male (6) and female (7) tongue-and-groove configurations provided along the length of at least part of the contact areas between the sheets and the structural elements.
