Abstract
Entire or partial end wall or side wall sections of a corrugated metal building can be constructed economically with an integrated solar heating panel which can supply forty to sixty percent of winter heating during daylight hours. The solar heating panel or wall section matches and supplements the appearance of adjacent standard wall surfaces and a virtually unnoticeable transition from standard to solar heating wall surfaces is achieved. Heated air can flow by natural convection or with blower assistance through a plenum in the solar heating wall panel to and from connected ducting. A uniquely formed clip provides the proper stand-off spacing between superposed sheets which make up the solar heating panel and the clips also serve to securely join the several corrugated sheets in proper interfitting relationship with the use of strategically placed self-tapping screws and intervening closure strips which maintain solar plenum integrity.
