ABSTRACT:
Composite panels, each having a rigid board facing, made from gypsum, concrete, wood, or fibrous material, backed by a layer of foamed plastic insulating material whose reverse face is protected by a highly reflective, flame-retardant, moisture-vapor-proof material applied thereto, are held together edge-face to edge-face in building construction by special retaining clips which secure the panels to supporting structure, such as exterior, load-bearing walls, roof, or ceiling, and also serve to guide installation of the panels so that flush registry is assured without time consuming care in installing an additional panel relative to one already in place. The clip has flanges extending perpendicularly from lateral edges of a web strip whose width depends upon the use intended and the panel thickness. A flange along one edge of the web strip is adapted to be secured directly to the supporting structure. Flanges extending mutually oppositely along the other edge of the web strip are adapted to respectively penetrate the interfaces between insulating material and rigid board facings of mutually adjoining panels received by the clip. The outer extremity of the securement flange is formed as a ramp for deflecting a to-be-installed one of the mutually adjacent panels into proper flush position with respect to the one already installed. As an optional feature, the underside of the securement flange can also be provided with projections adapted to serve as spacers with respect to the structure against and to which it is secured.
