A non-load bearing exterior cladding panel for securement to a building structure, preferably a prefabricated building module. The panel, preferably produced from glass reinforced concrete, includes a body having an exterior surface with a predetermined characteristic thereacross and an interior surface. An inturned flange section is located at an upper end of the body, whereby a plurality of adjacent panels will define a parapet around an upper portion of the building structure to which they are secured. A plurality of longitudinal reinforcing ribs are provided along the interior surface of the panel body with peripheral ribs for certain panels having a thickened medial portion. The panels further have connector bolts or the like secured thereto and extending outwardly from the interior surface for securement of same to a building structure. The reinforcing ribs permit a ventilating passageway to be provided along the full length of the panel when installed. Panels may also be provided that define openings therewithin for receipt of window units, door units, air conditioning units or the like with inturned flange sections surrounding the opening. For such particular panels, the peripheral ribs would not necessarily include thickened medial portions. Connector means may also be provided for securement of adjacent panels.
