ABSTRACT:
A conjoint facia, hood and water dam is provided having dam and first engagable means affording dam means with ridge structure, and first engagable means. Sheet roofing leading onto the dam means is clamped to the ridge structure by clamp means subsequently to be covered by a facia and hood member, the latter having hood structure and facia means with second engagable means extending from the facia means. The first and second engagable means together form restraining means to be engaged for maintaining the facia means horizontally laterally restrained and the first engagable means includes detaining means for detaining the facia and hood member against upward movement relatively to the dam and first engagable means with the restraining means being engaged. The restraining means are aligned to be engaged after downward movement of the facia and hood member relatively to the dam and first engagable means, against biasing means interposed along with the clamp means between the hood structure of the facia and hood member and the ridge structure of the dam means, and upward movement of the facia and hood member relatively to the dam and first engagable means is detained by the detaining means with the restraining means being engaged, this with the biasing means reactively biasing the facia and hood member to move in an upward direction while the hood structure still covers the ridge structure and the clamp and biasing means.
