ABSTRACT:
Panel joining means that include a pair of identical elongated edge connectors secured along one edge of each panel to be joined and a bridge for attachment between the connectors. The edge connectors are cut from a single extrusion, are positioned to face each other, and are dimensioned so they can be secured to the panel before the finish lamina is applied by rollers or presses. The bridge is an extrusion that is symmetrical in cross section. It has continuous flanges along each side that register with complementary flanges on the connectors to complete positioning of the panels for joining. Changing configuration of only the bridge web will change the angle between adjoining panels.
