ABSTRACT:
A vaulted skylight apparatus provides modular skylight panel having a pair of first and second spaced apart, generally parallel, sheets of flexible material with an insulating air space therebetween. The modular panel can be curved by cold forming so that the panels can conform to a network of structural tubing, forming a quarter round vault, a half round vault, a structural barrel vault, or the like. The sheets are supported peripherally by a frame which includes first and second frame members that are affixed respectively to the first and second panels forming a seal therewith. The first and second frame members are movably connected, holding the first and second frame members together during simultaneous cold forming of the first and second sheets into the desired curved vaulted position as aforedescribed.
