ABSTRACT:
A pair of identically formed facing sheets are joined along opposite side edges and include a fiberglass core therebetween. Each of the facing sheets includes a central web section, a side wall extending inwardly from each side edge thereof, a first flange extending inwardly from the free edge of one of the side walls and a second flange extending outwardly from the free edge of the other of said side walls. Both flanges are substantially parallel to the central web section. The pair of facing sheets are positioned opposite each other and with the first flange of each sheet adjacent the second flange of the opposite sheet. A support member is inserted in the space formed by the inwardly extending flange, adjoining side wall, and opposite section of the central web. Finally, the flanges are joined with fasteners, with a strip of heat non-conducting, material inserted between the adjoining flanges of the facing sheets when assembled to minimize transfer of heat and/or prevent flow of current from one facing sheet to the other.
In joining one of the aforementioned building panels to an adjacent panel, the panels are positioned together with a side edge of one in overlapped relationship with the corresponding edge of the other. A plastic nonadherent force absorbing member or rod is inserted between the adjoining side walls of the adjacent panels along the inside and outside juxtaposed surfaces. The force absorbing member is then covered with a silicon base, cementitious material which forms an elastomeric joint, uniting the two panels together. The elastomeric joint allows expansion and contraction due to temperature change without shearing of the silicon cementitious material.
