ABSTRACT:
A fully-adjustable coping assembly capable of conforming to a wide variety of parapets, walls, and other structures is disclosed. Embodiments of the assembly comprise two toothed, interconnected elements which not only telescope as necessary but, when connected, form an internal gutter as well. The elements may be made of PVC or other non-metal if desired to facilitate on-site cutting and fitting. Complementary cover and splice plates also are disclosed for coupling discrete sections of the coping assembly. The cover and splice plates themselves can be interconnected to seal the entire assembly and provide another internal gutter for redirecting fluid away from the protected surface.
