The wall panel includes a snap joint which permits hidden attachment of the wall panel to another wall panel. The joint permits the panel to be attached to building supports from inside or outside and permits easy attachment of liner panels, insulation, or the like. A projection on one panel abuts an angled leg of another panel to provide a secure snap engagement between the panels.

Wall panel

The amount of building heating, cooling and daylighting is controlled by at least one pair of solar energy passing panels, with each panel of the pair of panels being exposed to a separate direction of sun incidence. A shutter-shade combination is associated with each pair of panels and the shutter is connected to the shade so that rectilinear movement of the shutter causes pivotal movement of the shade.

Corrugation end stop for roofs

An element for sealing end voids of corrugated roof panels. The element is shaped and sized to correspond to the shape and size of the corrugated panel end void, and comprises a flexible body having a flange thereon. The flange is grooved for mastic application. An alignment prong cooperates with alignment means in a building structural element so that the element is properly oriented in the end void, and stiffening ribs produce the desired amount of rigidity for the element.
