ABSTRACT:
An improved standing seam floating roof and method for fabricating a standing seam floating roof with a plurality of panels is provided wherein the panels are interconnected via a female connecting assembly formed along at least a substantial portion of one side of each panel and a male connecting assembly formed along at least a substantial portion of the other side of each of the panels. The female connecting assembly, which defines a male assembly receiving cavity, is provided with a lip member extending across a portion of the male assembly receiving cavity to partially close off the opening to the male assembly receiving cavity. The male connecting assembly is provided with a lip engaging member such that upon positioning the male connecting assembly into the male assembly receiving cavity of the female connecting assembly, the lip engaging member of the male connecting assembly lockingly engages the lip member of the female connecting assembly to resist disengagement of the joint. A resilient sealant is disposed in an upper or apex portion of the male assembly receiving cavity of the female connecting assembly so that upon positioning and forcing the male connecting assembly upwardly into the male assembly receiving cavity, the male and female connecting assemblies cooperate to substantially uniformly compress the resilient sealant disposed in the upper portion of the male assembly receiving cavity of the female connecting assembly.
