ABSTRACT:
A conservatory framework has an eaves structure from which the roof is supported, at least one comer and/or in-line joint in the eaves structure being two connector parts which are angularly adjustable relative to one another. The first and second elongate frame members, e.g. a hip bar and jack rafter, are coupled together in angular relation relative to one another by a coupling arrangement. The coupling arrangement includes a plate with an upstanding pivot post, a channel associated with and extending longitudinally of the first frame member for receiving the plate and maintaining it captive against separation from the first member in a direction generally transverse to its elongation, and an arm adapted to be coupled to the pivot post and to the second frame member. A roofing structure has a support structure, e.g. an eaves beam or the central support structure of a valley region of the roof, glazing bars supported on the eaves structure, one or more roofing panels supported by the glazing bars and two part end fittings. Each fitting has a first portion underlying one end of the roofing panel and coupled to the eaves structure and a second portion connectable to the first portion in overlying relation with the panel. The first and second portions are adjustably connected together so as to accommodate panels of different thicknesses.
