WO 88/s0588 PCT/AU87/00368 1 PANEL MOUNTING SYSTEM This invention relates to panel mounting systems and particularly although not exclusively to glazing systems such as glazed roofing systems for skylights. It will be convenient to generally describe the invention with particular reference to glazing although the invention is applicable to other panel mounting systems.
One presently known glazing system for glazing of barrel vaults in which glazing panels are arcuate has a mounting arrangement for the lower edges of the glazing panels around the vault opening which requires considerable expertise and time to assemble. The glazing bars which support the curved edges of the glazing panels and which terminate at the peripheral edges of the vault opening are mounted to specially constructed brackets. These brackets are usually manufactured off site and are expensive to manufacture. On site, the brackets must be precisely mounted in the exact positions where the glazing bars will be located. This mounting arrangement does allow a glazing bar to extend upwardly from the bracket at any angle within a range. This feature is needed because the vault may be a full semi-c-ircle in cross section or may form a shallower arc.
This known glazing system for barrel vaults also attempts to overcome the common problems associated with skylights. These problems include the build-up of moisture from condensation and from moisture penetration as a result of expansion and contraction of components with temperature changes. This known system includes a glazing mullion which is an aluminium alloy extrusion and which forms a structural support at the line of jointing of adjacent glazing panels. The glazing mullion is provided with drainage channels for moisture. In use the adjacent glazing panels overlie the glazing mullion and a four piece gasket assembly is installed over the top of the glazing panel edges to retain the glazing panels to the glazing mullion and also provide weather sealing.
This presently known system above is expensive to manufacture, particularly in labour content of the manufacture. Also the system requires considerable skill and expertise to install and the installation is expensive because of the labour costs.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a panel edge mounting system which can use mass produced items and which can therefore be fabricated from relatively cheap components.
2 It is a further object of the present invention to provide a panel edge mounting system which is relatively simple and quick to install so as to minimise or reduce labour costs.
According to the invention there is provided a panel mounting system for mounting panels to structures in one of a number of possible final positions of the panels, the final position being predetermined for each use of the panel mo~unting system, the mounting system including an anchor piece for fixing to an edge of a panel to be mounted to a structure, the mounting system further including a base member for mounting to the structure, the mounting system including a cooperating tongue and mouth arrangement including a tongue provided by the anchor piece and a mouth provided by the base member or vice versa, the tongue being receivable within the mouth *for a range of angular positions of the panel so that the anchor piece and the base member can be assembled together at one angular 15 position of the panel by insertion of the tongue into the mouth, the :direction of insertion being generally along a line transverse to the S *general line of the edge of the panel, and so that the anchor and base member remain assembled together while the panel is moved towards another angular position being the desired final position of the panel, the tongue being a close fit within the mouth so as to thereby limit relative rocking or vibrating movement between the Ce:. *anchor piece and the base member, and the close fitting assembly of the tongue and mouth providing a mounting of the panel at the edge of the panel when the panel is mounted in its final predetermined position.
The tongue may be arcuate in section and the mouth may be of complementary arcuate shape so that as the tongue is inserted deeper into the mouth, the anchor piece changes its angular position relative to the base member. For example, both the tongue and the complementary mouth in cross section may define respective segments of a circle.
The base member preferably comprises an elongated base member for extending along the line of the panel edge, the mouth or the tongue provided by the base member being elongated and extending along the

The base member may include a downwardly extending skirt integral therewith, the skirt being arranged to overlap a length of flashing for waterproofing purposes.
The anchor piece may include a base support portion for locating and supporting the edge of the panel, the anchor piece further including a side support portion for location at and for overlapping a face of the panel at the edge thereof.
The system may further include an elongated panel edge member for mounting to the panel edge, the edge member having a weather flange 15 extending outwardly therefrom and arranged to cooperate with the base member to form a weather barrier, the weather flange comprising a skirt extending downwardly and arranged to overlap the base member on an outside or exposed side of the base member. In this arrangement, the base member preferably includes a weather-side flange extending up from the base member and arranged to cooperate with the weather skirt of the panel edge member so that water running over the outside of the panel edge member will be inhibited or prevented from penetrating the edge mounting assembly by the weather-side flange.
Preferably the weather skirt of the panel edge member is arcuate in cross section and the weather-side flange is complementary so that the weather skirt closely overlaps the weather-side flange for a range of angular positions of the panel member relative to the base member so as to thereby provide weather sealing for a range of angular positions of the panel edge relative to the base member, A barrier strip may be provided asa barrier against penetration of weather/insects/debris, the barrier strip comprising a perforated strip mounted to the base member and extending outwardly therefrom and in use pressing against the inner surface of the weather skirt of the panel edge member.

A seal retaining channel preferably extends aong each panel support and panel retainer and facing the anel edge, the seal retaining channel being provided with a r tricted mouth facing the panel edge, the sealing gasket bein rovided with a retaining bead extending lengthwise along the sket, the retaining bead being received within the channe with the restricted channel mouth resisting disengagement the bead from the channel. One or each panel support and anel retainer may include a drainage channel outside of the sealing gaskets relative to a general direction transverse o the longitudinal direction of the mullions, the draina channel facing towards the panel edge whereby any moisture co densing or penetrating and reaching the mullion assembly can ct in the drainage channel and bo draind therfrom.
Possible and preferred features of the present invention will now be described with particular reference to the accompanying drawings.
However it is to be understood that the features illustrated in and described with reference to the drawings are not to be construed as limiting on the scope of the invention. In the drawings: Fig. 1 is a side sectional view of a possible arrangement of base member mounted to a perimeter curb, say around a skylight opening to be covered by a barrel vault, Fig. 2 is a side sectional view showing an anchor member being assembled with the base member of Fig. 1, Fig. 3 is a side sectional view showing the anchor member generally in desired final position and a glazing mullion positioned preparatory to fastening, Fig. 4 is a side sectional view showing the final panel edge mounting assembly, Fig. 5 is a perspective view showing an anchor member assembled with the base member, Fig. 6 is a side sectional view showing an alternative base member in an assembly allowing ventilation through the assembly, Fig. 7 is a cross sectional view of a support mullion and a cover ,,llion before assembly, 0l i i- WO 88/03588 PCT/AU87/00368 Fig. 8 shows a glazing mullion assembly using the mullions of Fig. 7, Fig. 9 shows the preferred mullion assembly in use with say 6mm glazing panels, Fig. 10 shows the preferred glazing assembly with a 10mm glazing panel and a 0.6mm sheet metal panel, Fig. 11 shows the preferred glazing assembly with double glazing and an angled glazing panel, Fig. 12 shows the preferred glazing assembly with a barrel vault end arrangement and say a thick insulating panel, Fig. 13 is the preferred glazing assembly with a strengthening channel secured thereto for flat sheet glazing, Fig. 14 is the preferred glazing assembly fixed to a wall by a concealed fixing bracket.
The panel edge mounting system illustrated in Figs 1 to 6 is for mounting a panel 11 to a structure 10. An anchor piece 12 is for fixing to an edge of the panel 11. A base member 13 is mounted to a structural frame member 14. The mounting system includes a tongue 16 provided by the anchor piece 12 and a mouth 17 provided by the base member 13, the tongue 16 being receivable within the mouth 17 for a range of angular positions of the panel 11 so that the anchor piece 12 and the base member 13 can be assembled together at one angular position of the panel 11 and remain assembled together while the panel 11 is moved towards another angular position being the desired final position of the panel 11.
Although the tongue 16 is shown provided by the anchor pieco 12 and the mouth 17 by the base member 13, the reciprocal arrangement is also possible.
In the drawings the base member 13 comprises an elongated base member 13 for extending along the line of the panel edge. The mouth 17 provided by the base member 13 is therefore elongated and extends along the base member 13 so that the tongue 16 of the anchor piece 12 can be inserted into the mouth 17 at any longitudinal position. The elongated base member 13 comprises a metal section such as an aluminium alloy extrusion. The elongated mouth 17 opens generally upwardly, when the base section 13 is being used at the peripheral edge of a skylight opening e.g. for covering with a barrel vault, enabling the tongue 16 to be inserted into the mouth 17 from above after the base section 13 has been installed at the edge of the
ILA
Wi,o 88/0)3588 PCT/AU87/00368 opening to be spanned by the vault.
The base section 13 includes a base web 20 arranged to overlie the structural frame member 14 shown as a perimeter curb provided around the opening spanned by the vault. The base web 20 includes an evaporation tray 21 for enabling evaporation of any moisture penetrating the edge assembly or condensate collected between inner wall 22 at the inner edge of the base web 20 and a wall 23 of the mouth 17. The outer edge of the base member 13 is provided with a downwardly extending skirt 25 arranged to overlap a length of flashing 26 or the like for water proofing purposes, The anchor piece 12 comprise a length of metal section such as an aluminium alloy extrusion. Any desired length of anchoring section 12 may be used depending for example on the strength of the anchoring force required. In the case of barrel vaults, anchoring section lengths of say 10cm may be used at approximately every metre of panel edge length.
The anchor piece 12 in the illustrated embodiment includes a base support portion 27 for locating and/or supporting the edge of the panel 11. The anchoring section 12 also includes a side support portion 28 for location at and overlapping a face of the panel 11 at the edge, The base and side support portions 27, 28 are comprised by two flanges, the flanges being arranged at substantially 90' to each other. The tongue 16 of the anchor piece 12 extends from the flanges 27,28 on the opposite side to the V shaped notch 29 defined by the flanges 27, 28.
In the illustrated embodiment the tongue 16 is arcuate in section, and the mouth 17 is of complementary arcuate shape so that as the tongue 16 is inserted deeper into the mouth 17, the anchor I piece 12 changes its angular position relative to the base member 13. The tongue 16 and complementary mouth 17 define in cross-section respective segments of a circle. Preferably the tongue 16 is a close fit within the mouth 17 to limit relative rocking or vibrating movement. The centre of curvature 30 of the part circular mouth 17 is preferably the same centre of curvature of the tongue 16 when the anchor piece 12 and base members 13 are assembled together.
The panel edge mounting system further includes an elongated panel edge member 35 for mounting to the panel edge, the edge member having a weather flange 36 extending outwardly therefrom and arranged to co-operate with the base member 13 to form a weather WO 88/03588 barrier.

In the preferred embodiment rt 36 extends downwardly to overlap the skirt 25 of the base 13 which in turn in use overlaps the flashing The base 13 includes a weather-side flange 37 standing up from the base 13 and arranged to co-operate with the weather skirt 36 so ter running down the panel 11 and over the outside of the dge member 35 will be inhibited or prevented from penetrating e mounting assembly by the weather-side flange 37. The skirt 36 is arcuate in cross section and the weather-side 37 is complementary so that the weather skirt 36 closely the weather-side flange 37 for a range of angular positions of the panel edge member 35 relative to the base member 13. This will enable the proper weather sealing to be achieved regardless of the angular position of the panel 11.
The panel edge member 35 comprises a panel bead in the form of a channel section 39, e.g. an extruded aluminium alloy section, the channel *section 39 being arranged to receive therein the edge of the panel 11 such as a glazing panel 11. The edge of the panel 11 received within the channel section 39 is retained and sealed along its edge by means of a U-shaped sealing gasket 40 which is a tight frictional fit in the channel section 39 and receives the edge of the panel 11 therein. The gasket may be of neoprene or rubber or other suitable material and removal of the gasket 40 from the channel section 39 is inhibited by serrations 41 on the inside surfaces of the channel 39.
As shown in Fig. 6 a barrier strip 43 provides a barrier against penetration of weather/insects/debris. The barrier strip 43 is operatively located in use between the base member 13 and the panel edge member 35. Preferably the barrier strip 43 is located between the weather skirt 36 of the panel edge member 35 and the base member 13. In this arrangement the base member 13 may not be provided with the weather-side flange 37. The barrier strip 43 may comprise a perforated strip mounted to the base member 13 and extending outwardly therefrom and in use pressing against the inner surface of the weather skirt 36 of the panel edge member 35. The perforated V strip 43 for example may be riveted at its inner edge to the base Sember 13 or may be fitted into a pocket 44 formed on the outer side i I WO 88/03588 PCT/AU87/00368 of the base member 13. The outer wall of the pocket 44 may be deformed inwardly to clanlp the perforated strip 43 and retain it against removal. With the provision of a perforated barrier strip 43, ventilation can be deliberately permitted through the mounting system in use as shown by arrows C.
In Figs. 1 to 4 the steps of assembling one possible embodiment of a panel edge mounting system are shown in sequence. In Fig. 1 the elongated base section 13 is laid over and secured by a bolt 50 to the perimeter curb 14 p:'ovided around the opening to be spanned by a barrel vault. A conventional flashing strip 26 is provided which the downwardly extending skirt 25 of the base section 13 overlaps to provide for water runoff. The evaporation tray 21 is defined between the inner wall 22 and wall 23 defining one side of the mouth 17, the other side of the mouth 17 is defined by the generally S-section wall 51 so that the mouth 17 is of part circular cross section, the centre of the circle being shown by an The highest part of the base section 13 is the top edge 52 of the inner wall 23 of the mouth 17 so that condensation or other moisture reaching any part of the section to the outside of that highest point will preferentially flow to the outside of the assembly, Base 'members 13 may be arranged around the entire perimeter of an opening to be spanned by a vault with the ends of the base members 13 along each side of the opening being mitred together.
The anchor piece 12 in Fig. 2 has a part circular section tongue 16 together with a base support flange 27 and side support.flange 28 defining a right angled notch 29. As shown in Fig. 2 the anchor piece 12 may be first arranged so that the tip of the tongue 16 is located at the opening to the mouth 17. The anchor piece 12 can then be -otated in the direction of arrow A to the position shown in Fig.
3. In this position the tongue 16 is penetrating the mouth 17 and will inhibit disassembly of the anchor piece 12 from the base section 13 except by reversal of the rotational movement back to the position shown in Fig. 2. The anchor piece 12 in Fig. 3 can adopt any desired angular position relative to the base section 13 as exemplified by the range of possible positions indicated with the arrow B in Fig.
3, This allows the panel edge to project vertically upwardly from the anchor piece 12 (as shown in Fig. 4) or the panel 11 can extend from the anchor piece 12 at an angle to the horizontal.
WO 88/03588 PCT/AU87/00368 The panel edge mounting system of Figs. 1 to 6 can be used with the panel joining system described later in relation to Figs. 7 to 14. In assembling a barrel vault using the mounting system of Figs.
1 to 6 and the mullion assembly described later in relation to Figs 7 to 14, the support mullion 60 can be placed generally in position with the bottom end of the support mullion being located against the base and side support flanges 27, 28 of the anchor piece 12 (Fig.
The support mullion has laterally projecting flanges to which the anchor piece 12 can be secured, e.g, by passing screws through the side support flange 28 into the flanges of the support mullion In the base support flange 27 there is formed a drainage channel 53 so that water running down the support mullii 60 (which is provided with drainage channels for condensate) can collect in the drainage channel 53 of the anchor piece 12, the water from there falling onto the base member 13 to the outside of the highest point provided at the top edge 52 of the inner wall 23 of the mouth 17.
Fig, 4 shows a glazing panel mounted in position, The bottom edge of the glazing panel 11 has a panel edge member 35 in the form of a metal section. The edge 35 section has a weather flange or skirt 36 which extends downwardly and overlaps the weather-side flange 37 standing up from the outside of the base section 13, As shown, both the weather skirt 36 and the weather-side flange 37 are sections of a circle having the same centre of curvature as the tongue 16 and mouth 17, thus enabling close everlapping of the weather skirt 36 and weather-side flange 37 regardless of the angular position of the panel edge within its range of possible positions, The panel edge section 35 has a U-shaped channel 39 in which the glazing panel 11 edge is received together with the U-shaped sealing gasket. The panel edge member'35 may be secured to the anchor piece 12 by a rivet 54 or other fastener. The cover mullion 70 is shown as it would be finally assembled over the side edge of the glazing panel 11., Drainage holes 55 (Fig. 3) can be provided at intervals along the length of the base section 13, the drainage holes 55 being provided through both the bottom edge of the weather-side flange 37 and into the mouth 17 so that any moisture collecting in these low points can be drained to the outside of the assembly, WO 88/03S88 PCT/AU87/00368 Fig. 5 shows a perspective view of a length of base section 13 with a short length of say 10cm of anchor section 12 assembled therewith. The support mullion could then be brought downwardly into position against the anchor piece 12. The exact position of the anchor piece 12 lengthwise of the base section 13 is not critical.
The line of sight from inside the assembly shown in Fig. 6 by the broken line and indicated by the letter is the "horizon" line for people within a building provided with the glazed vault. Keeping the height of the side support flange 28 of the anchor piece 12 at or below that line will ensure that the anchor piece does not visibly project upwardly from the assembly and possibly spoil the aesthetic finish.
The preferred embodiment of the panel edge mounting system illustrated in Figs 1 to 6is easy to assembly on site and is therefore believed will result in substantial labour savings. The base section 13, anchor piece 12 and panel edge section 35 can all be extrusions which can be readily manufactured in continuous lengths and cut to size either in the factory or on site. The panel edge sections 35 can be cut to size first in a factory, namely cut to the widths of the glazing panels 11, and the glazing bars or mullion sections Will fit together without the need for very close tolerances to be observed. It may only be necessary to cut on site the last one of a number of panel edge sections 35 along a long extent of a vault. The preferred mounting assembly illustrated and described enables all water or condensing moisture to drain to the outside of the assembly. If there is any moisture that penetrates or reaches the inside of the highest point 52 of the base section 13, the evaporation tray 21 is operative to collect and allow evaporation of such moisture.
Referring now to Figs. 7 to 14, the panel mounting system includes an elongated support mullion 60 which in section includes a body portion 61 and two panel supports 62 extending laterally, on opposite sides of the body portions 61, each of the panel supports 62 being capable in use of supporting the edge of a panel 11. The system includes an elongated cover mullion 70 which in section comprises a mounting portion 71 for mounting of the cover mullion to the body portion 61 of the support mullion 60. The cover mullion includes two panel retainers 72 extending laterally on opposite sides of the mounting portion 71, the panel retainers 72 being WO 88/03588 PCT/AU87/00368 a-II arranged so that in use each opposes a respective panel support 62 in spaced relationship thereto with the edge of a panel 11 located between the opposed panel retainer 72 and respective panel support 62.
The designations "support mullion" and "cover mullion" are not to be understood as restricting the invention to an arrangement in use in which the "support mullion" lies below or inside of the cover mullion or which the "support mullion" provides exclusively a supporting function for the cover mullion and/or the panel.
The support mullion 60 and cover mullion 70 both contribute structural strength to the mullion assembly. For this purpose both the support and cover mullions 60, 70 are made of metal such as for use in a curved skylight, such as barrel vault shaped skylight, the mullions 60, 70 are curved along their lengths and are of the same ra-ius of curvature as the associated panels 11 which in this case would be glazing panels. The mullions 60, 70 extend across the entire span of the vault so as to be in cpmpression and.to constitute .structural support for the vault. The mullions 60, 70 may be curved to the general radius required as part of the manufacturing thereof or may be curved on site.
The body portion 61 of the support mullion 60 and the central mounting portion 71 of the cover mullion 70 are of gene-'.lly complementary shape and are arranged to directly fit with each other in assembly. The body portion 61 and .the mounting portion 71 fit together and are held together in use without the use of penetrating fasteners. For this purpose the body portion 61 and mounting portion 71 form a tight frictional fit or a snap fit together.
In the illustrated embodiment where the body portion 61 and mounting portion 71 snap fit together, there are provided complementary retaining barbs 73 and retaining shoulders 63 on the respective mullions 70, 60 so that the cover mullion 70 which in the illustrated arrangement in provided with the barbs 73 is in use resiliently deformed until each barb 73 reaches the respective shoulder 63 whereupon each of the barbs 73 returns resiliently back towards its original position and the barbs 73 engage with the shoulders 63 to resist separation of the two mullions 60, 70. The barbs 73 are provided at the ends of respective ones of the two spaced webs 74 which extend from the cover mullion 70 towards the 11 0 Q Wo 88/03588 PCT/A U87/00368 support mullion 60. The two outwardly facing shoulders 63 are provided on the support mullion 60 and these snap fit with the barbs 73 when the two mullions 60, 70 are pressed together. The shoulder 63 are provided on opposite sides of the central body portion 61.
The thickness of each web 74 is relatively thin so as to enable the webs 74 to resiliently flex away from each other when the cover mullion 70 is being pressed into engagement with the support mullion The ends of the barbs 73 are provided with ramp surfaces which engage with diverging outer faces 65 of the central body portion 61 when the two mullions 60, 70 are being pressed together.
The body portion 61 is shown as an enlarged body facing and extending towards the cover mullion 70. The body portion 61 has a continuously curved outer face 65, shown as a semi-circular outer face in cross-section. A complementary concave inner face 76 is provided by the central mounting portion 71 of the cover mullion Sealing means 80 is provided between each panel support 62 and adjacent edge of a panel II and between each panel retainer 72 and the adjacent panel edge. The sealing means 80 is shown in Figs. 9 to 12 as sealing gaskets 81, 82, 83 extending along the opposite faces of the edge of the panel 11. The gaskets 81, 82, 83 are made of a resilient 'material such as a rubber or plastics material so as to provide an effective weather sealing at the panel edges while at the same time allowing thermal expansion and contraction. Each sealing gasket 81, 82, 83 includes a main body portion 85 contacting che edge of the panel 11 and having an outer portion 86 contacting the panel support 62 or panel retainer 72.
The sealing means 80 includes a seal retaining means 90 which comprises a retaining channel 91 extending along the panel support 62 or panel retainer 72 and facing the panel edge in use. The seal retaining channel 91 is provided with a restricted mouth 92 facing the panel edge and the sealing gasket 81, 82, 83 for use with this channel 91 is provided with a retaining bead 93 extending lengthwise along the gasket 81, 82, 83, the retaining bead 93 being in use received within the channel 91 with the restricted channel mouth 92 resisting disengagement of the bead 93 from the channel 91.
Different sealing gaskets 81, 82, 83 are particularly constructed for the different kinds of panels 11 to be used. For example in Fig.
9 the sealing gaskets 81 on either side of the edge of the panel 11 are identical with each other so that the panel 11 will be centred i I .YL~ WO 88/03588 PCT/AU87/00368 between the panel support 62 and the panel retainer 72. In Fig. at the right, the sealing gasket 82 has a larger main body so that the panel la, which for example may be a thin metal sheet, will be supported closer to either the panel support 62 or panel retainer 72. As shown at the right of Fig. 11, the sealing gaskets 81 may be resiliently deformable or may be shaped to enable a panel llb to extend at an acute angle to the general line extending parallel to and midway between the facing panel support 62 and panel retainer 72. Also as shown in Fig. 11, for double glazing, there may be provided an intermediate gasket 87 between the two panels llc, lid, the intermediate gasket 87 both sealing and providing a spacing member between the panels lIc, lld.
Each of the mullions 60, 70 is provided with drainage means in the form of drainage channels 95 provided in the panel supports 62 and panel retainers 72 at the outer ends thereof, i.e. outside of the sealing means 80. The drainage channels 95 face inwardly towards the associated panel 11 so that any moisture condensing or penetrating and reaching the mullion assembly will collect in a drainage channel and run along the channel under gravity, e.g. to the opposite edges of the barrel vault.
The mounting system is principally designed for use with a curved glazing structure. However the system is also usable with the flat glazing assembly such as a flat skylight. In this case the mullions 70 may be subject to a bending force or may be in tension as a result of wind forces and particularly if the glazing panels are horizontal or other than vertical. To provide strength in this situation, the system may include an elongated strengthening piece 100 (Fig. 13) for securing to one of the mullions 60, 70 so as to extend along that mullion and strengthen the assembly in use. The strengthening piece 100 comprises a strengthening strip 101 having an elongated web 102 which extends away from the associated mullion and which in use is secured to the mullion 60 at points along the length thereof. The strip 101 is shown as being a generally U-shaped channel having in cross-section two opposed legs 102, 103 which extend away from the mullion 60 and a connecting web 104 at the base of the channel shape, the connecting web 104 in use being secured to the mullion 60, e.g. to the central body portion 61 of the support mullion 60. This securing is shown as including self tapping screws 7 WO 88J03588 PCT/AU87/00368 106 or the like which pass through the web 104 and into the body portion 61.
Other components may be included in the system according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention in order to make the system usable in different environments. For example, where the system is to be used in a barrel vault structure, for the opposite ends of the barrel vault there may be provided an inwardly facing channel 110 (Fig. 12), i.e. a channel facing towards the general centre of curvature of the barrel vault, the channel 110 being adapted in use to receive an end panel 111 of the barrel vault. This channel 110 may be secured to the inner mullion which is shown as the support mullion 60. The channel 110 is shown as connected to the outer end of the panel support 62, e.g. by fastening rivets 112 or the like passing through the base web 113 of the channel 110 and through the outer end of the panel support 62. A closure strip 114 in the general form of a part annular gasket is provided for fitting within the facing panel support 62 and panel retainer 72 at the outer end of the barrel vault. This closure strip 114 serves aesthetic purposes as well as sealing against ingress of moisture, dirt and pests.
In Fig. 14 there is shown another accessory that the system may include. In this drawing there is a wall fixing bracket 120 for enabling the mullion assembly in use to abut against a flat wall 121. The fixing bracket 120 comprises either a plurality of individual brackets of relatively short length or a continuous bracket strip arranged to be secured to the wall 121. Each bracket or bracket strip includes a flange 122 which extends outwardly from the wall 121 and is arranged to fit within the recess defined between the facing panel support 62 and panel retainer 72. The flange 122 closely overlies either the panel retainer 72 or, as illustrated, the panel support 62 enabling fastening elements (not shown) such as rivets to be passed through the support 62 into the flange 122 to retain the assembly to the wall 121. With thisarrangement the wall fixing bracket 120 is substantially concealed from view.
The mullion assembly described and illustrated in relation Figs.
7 to 14 can be seen to be relatively simple to use and install. The components can be manufactured relatively cheaply since the complex gasket assembly of the prior known system described has been eliminated. Both support and cover mullions 60, 70 serve structural

WO 88/03588 PCT/AU87/00368 purposes and each can be of lighter construction than the glazing mullion used in the prior system. Furthermore the system can be sufficiently versatile to be used in most skylights or other such glazed structures and in use the assembly can be aesthetically pleasing with no or few visible fasteners or the like.
It is to be understood that various alterations, modifications and/or additions may be made to the features of the possible and preferred embodiment(s) of the invention as herein described without departing from the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
