A liquid resistant containment membrane and which is durable enough to remain in place during the drilling and fracking phases to eliminate the delay and cost of replacement or can be relocated from site to site, has a slip resistant top surface, is a flexible membrane, and/or which top portion of the containment membrane does not absorb liquids. The containment membrane comprises a polymer waterproof layer and a reinforcement layer. The reinforcement layer is connected to a bottom side of the polymer waterproof layer.

Containment membrane

An anchoring clip system that includes an anchoring clip that has a top flange portion and a base flange that can be connect to a substructure, and a cap member designed to be inserted over a portion of the roof panels so as to secure the roof panels to the anchoring clip. The anchoring clip system can optionally be designed to allow for fluid flow through or on one or more components of the anchoring clip system. The anchoring clip system can optionally include a locking crown that improves the wind uplift resistance of the panels.

Anchoring system for a roof panel system

A roofing system formed of a plurality of support members secured to a load bearing roof deck. A plurality of roofing panels are positioned on the support members and are oriented to form overlapping joints between the panels. Sealant is positioned within the overlapping joints of the panels. A compression bar is positioned over the overlapping joints and is secured to the overlapping joints and support member by a fastener arrangement.

Roofing system

A light-weight structural system is provided by a panel system having at least one pair of adjacent panels ( ) and a clip ( ) positioned between the adjacent panels. A groove or channel ( ) in each panel receives an outwardly-extending tongue or tab ( ) on the clip. Built-up gussets ( ) on the panels above and below the groove or channel provide structural strength. Upwardly-extending support members ( ) on the clip bear weight from the panels. A base section ( ) of the clip allows the clip to be fixed to a roof or wall substructure. The panels can be formed from thermosetting or thermoplastic polymers, especially fiber-reinforced polymers.
