ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to methods of interlocking panels as well as panels and paneling kits useful in working those methods. The complete interlocked panel assembly resulting from working these methods exhibits a horizontal pattern, excellent wind uplift resistance and water tightness. Concealed fastening devices for panel-to-substrate affixation add to the water proofing and aesthetic qualities of the finished panel assemblies of the present invention. The self-interlocking panels of the present invention are easy to install, especially in that no external clips or other fasteners are necessary for panel-to-panel affixation. The interlocking panels of the present invention may be installed from the top of the underlying structure downward.
