Figure 1 illustrates the cross-sectional profile of a cladding/eave lining sheet
(hereinafter "eave lining sheet") according to one preferred embodiment. The eave
lining sheet 10 comprises a profile defined by a series of substantially parallel grooves
2, 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d provided along a length of the eave lining sheet. As illustrated in
Figures 3 and 4, the eave lining sheet 10 is configured to be fastened to a supporting
structure 12 of a building at a base portion 3 of at least one groove 2. Preferably, the
eave lining sheet is fastened to the supporting structure via a plurality (or all) of the
grooves 2 of the sheet 10.
For succinctness, the following examples describe the cladding/eave lining
sheet 10 used to line an eave of a building. However, it should be appreciated that the
sheet 10 could be used to line other surfaces of the building, eg a wall or a ceiling of
the building. In further embodiments, the cladding sheet 10 could be used to line a roof
of the building.
The base portion 3 of the at least one groove 2 may be provided with an
aperture (not shown) for receiving a fastener 8. In preferred embodiments, the fastener
is a screw; however, alternative fastening means such as nails, staples, adhesive, etc
may be used. The term "base portion" is used to define the region 3 of the groove 2 via
which the eave lining sheet 10 is fastened to the building; however, it will be understood
that this "base portion" will in fact be inverted so as to be positioned at the top of the
sheet when installed (eg as shown in Figures 3 and 4).
The eave lining sheet 10 is preferably manufactured of a metallic alloy. In
one example, the alloy is a steel, such as sold under the trade name COLORBOND®.
Alternative metallic alloys, such as zinc aluminum, may be used.
At least one surface 6 of the sheet may be finished with a protective paint
or coating for improved aesthetics and weather resistance. Preferably, at least the
surface of the sheet 10 that will be exposed once installed comprises the protective
finish.
In one embodiment, each groove 2 of the eave lining sheet 10 is trapezoidal
in profile. The base of each groove 2 is about 20mm wide and the opening of each
groove 2 is about 30mm wide. The eave lining sheet 10 is substantially planar between
grooves 2 and the distance between grooves 2 may be about 120mm. In alternative
embodiments, the corrugated profile and dimensions of the eave lining sheet 10 may
vary, but the sheet preferably comprises a plurality of grooves via which the sheet is
fastened to the support structure of the building. At one end of the eave lining sheet,
there may be provided a fold 4 for attaching to a fascia of the building. Each groove has
a depth of about 3mm. In other embodiments, the groove may have a depth of between
about 2mm and 5mm inclusive.
An eave lining system according to one preferred embodiment comprises a
plurality of the eave lining sheets 10. The eave lining sheets 10 are joined together to
cover a length and/or width of the eave of the building by overlapping a portion of the
adjacent sheets. As illustrated in Figures 7 and 8, the overlapping portion may comprise
one or more grooves 2 from each eave lining sheet, which grooves are superimposed
or nested in one another where they overlap.
The eave lining system may further comprising a flashing 14 such as
illustrated in Figure 5 to line the building where the eave 20 intersects with the wall of
the building. The flashing 14 may be manufactured of the same material as the eave
lining sheet 10. At least one surface 18 of the flashing may be finished with a protective
paint or coating for improved aesthetics and weather resistance. The opposite surface
or both surfaces may be finished with a protective paint or coating.
Edge fold 16 of flashing 14 has been found to increase the strength of the
flashing 14, and to reduce scratching or damage to the eave lining sheet 10 that may
be caused by repositioning of the flashing during installation. That is, when the flashing
14 is positioned on the eave sheet 10, there is only a small contact area between the
flashing (being the internal surface of the edge fold 16) and the eave sheet 10, such
that if flashing 14 is slid along the edge of the eave 20 when repositioning it during
installation, there will be minimal (if any) cosmetic damage to the underlying eave
sheet.
Transverse fold 22 of flashing 14 is positioned flush against the wall of the
building and provides a neater finish for mitre joints around corners of the building.
Figure 6 illustrates the flashing 14 installed over the eave lining sheet 10 according to
one embodiment. The flashing 14 may be attached using any suitable fasteners 19,
such as screws. Apertures may be provided in the flashing 14 for receiving such
fasteners. The flashing 14 may be trimmed to size as required during installation. As
illustrated in Figure 6, for corner installations, edge portions of two pieces of flashing
14 may be overlapped for simpler and quicker installation, and a neat, weather-tight
finish.
A method of lining an eave 20 of a building according to a preferred
embodiment comprises providing at least two like eave lining sheets as described above
and attaching the first eave lining sheet 10a to a supporting structure 12 of the eave 20
of the building by fastening via the base portion 3 of the at least one groove 2 of the
first eave lining sheet 10a. The second eave lining sheet 10b is then positioned such
that a portion of the second eave lining sheet 10b overlaps with a portion of the first
eave lining sheet 10a. The second eave lining sheet 10b is attached to the supporting
structure 12 by fastening via the base portion 3 of the at least one groove 2 of the
second eave lining sheet 10b. As illustrated more clearly in Figure 8, the overlapping
portions 11 of the sheets 10a, 10b may each comprise one or more grooves 2, which
are aligned with each other/nest within each other when installed. Further eave lining
sheets 10 may be provided and installed as necessary to line the entire width and/or
length of the eave. The sheets 10 may be trimmed to size prior to installation, if
required.
Embodiments of the present system and method eliminate the need for
separate "joining strips" or "joining trims", which are a necessary component of prior
art systems (in order to join prior art eave sheets together). Accordingly, the present
system and method reduces the number of components required, and thereby reduces
cost, time and effort required for installation of eave liners. Instead, by overlapping one
of more grooves of each sheet, the sheets may be securely and easily installed to
provide a clean finish. The corrugated profile of the present eave lining sheets 10
according to preferred embodiments also facilitates accurate trimming of the sheet to
size (if required) and easy aligning of overlapping sheets with each other. Additionally,
the corrugated profile improves the strength of the sheet 10, so that larger lengths and
widths of the sheets may be provided, further reducing cost, time and effort during
installation, manufacture, storage and transport of the sheets.
Another embodiment of the cladding sheet 100 is illustrated in Figures 9 to
16. The cladding sheet 100 comprises a profile defining at least one groove 102
extending along a length 104 of the cladding sheet. While the drawings illustrate that
the cladding sheet 100 comprises a single groove 102, it should be appreciated that a
plurality of grooves may be provided, spaced apart from each other along the width of
the sheet, each groove extending the length 104 of the sheet.
The cladding sheet 100 comprises a first edge 106 extending along the
length 104 of the cladding sheet, and a second edge 108 opposite the first edge and
extending along the length of the cladding sheet. The groove 102 extends parallel to
and adjacent the first edge 106. The first edge 106 may be defined by a flange 107 bent
at an angle (eg 90 degrees) relative to the plane of the rest of the sheet, for convenient
positioning of that edge against a wall of a building (particularly where the cladding
sheet 100 is used to line an eave of the building). The second edge 108 may comprise
a fold 105 for attaching to a fascia of the building.
As illustrated in Figure 10A, the cladding sheet 100 may be fastened to a
supporting structure of a building at a base portion 103 of the least one groove 102.
Additionally or alternatively, as illustrated in Figure 10B, the cladding sheet 100 may be
fastened to a supporting structure 112 of a building or to another cladding sheet
adjacent the groove 102. The fastening means may comprise a screw and the cladding
sheet 100 may be provided with one or more apertures for receiving the fastening
means.
As illustrated in Figures 11 to 14, the cladding sheet 100 is configured to be
joined with a like cladding sheet 100', wherein the joint 110 between the cladding sheets
is adjacent the at least one groove 102 of cladding sheet 100. In preferred
embodiments, the joint 110 is formed via pop riveting, although other suitable means
of fastening the two sheets 100, 100' together may additionally or alternatively be
utilized.
It will be appreciated that where a plurality of cladding sheets 100 are joined
to each other, the resulting structure will comprise a plurality of grooves 102 running
parallel to each other. That is, the resulting combination will be similar in structure,
and may be similar in appearance, to the cladding sheet/eave liner embodiment of
Figures 1 to 8. The provision, in this embodiment, of a plurality of cladding sheets to
make up the final structure allows for more flexibility when combining the sheets to
allow for variation in length and appearance of the final structure.
Specifically, the joint 110 between the cladding sheets 100, 100' may be
such that the second edge 108' of the second/further cladding sheet 100' is between
the groove 102 and the first edge 106 of the first/underlying cladding sheet 100, as
illustrated in Figure 12. Multiple grooves 102, 102' will therefore be visible in the
resulting structure, similar to the embodiment of Figures 1 to 8.
In another embodiment, the joint 110 between the cladding sheets 100, 100'
is such that the second edge 108' of the second/further cladding sheet 100' is between
the groove 102 and the second edge 108 of the first/underlying cladding sheet 100, as
illustrated in Figure 13. This results in an overlapped finish, and a shorter overall length.
The cladding sheets may be joined at one or both sides adjacent the groove 102 of the
underlying cladding sheet 100.
In a third embodiment, the joint 110 between the cladding sheets 100, 100'
is such that the second edge 108' of the second/further cladding sheet 100' lies along
the groove 102 of the first/underlying cladding sheet. In the example where the second
edge 108' abuts the edge 114 of the 102, a flush finish is provided, as illustrated in
Figures 11 and 16.
The cladding sheet 100 is manufactured of a suitably durable, weather
resistant material such as a metallic alloy or a plastics material. In one example, the
alloy is a steel, such as sold under the trade name COLORBOND®. Alternative metallic
alloys, such as zinc aluminum, may be used. In addition to lining eaves, it is envisaged
that the cladding sheet 100 could also be used to line other building structures, such as
walls and ceilings. The cladding sheet 100 could also be used to line a roof of the
building.
In one example, the cladding sheets 100 are used in an eave lining system.
The system comprises a plurality of cladding sheets joined together widthwise to line
the width 118 of the eave and a plurality of cladding sheets joined together lengthwise
to line the length of the eave.
The present disclosure also relates to a method of lining along a width 118
of an eave using a plurality of cladding sheets, the method comprising:
a) fastening a first/underlying cladding sheet 100 to a supporting structure 112
of the eave at a base portion 103 of the at least one groove 102;
b) joining a second/further cladding sheet 100' to the first cladding sheet 100
along the width 118 of the eave, such that the second/further cladding sheet overlaps
the first edge 106 of the first/underlying cladding sheet, with the second edge 108' of
the second/further cladding sheet at or adjacent the at least one groove 102 of the
first/underlying cladding sheet; and
c) repeating step (b) with further cladding sheets as necessary to line the entire
width 118 of the eave. The method may further comprise installing a flashing at the
intersection between the cladding sheet and the wall of the building.
In addition to lining the width of the eave, a plurality of cladding sheets may
be joined lengthwise to line the length of the eave. Similarly to the embodiment
described above in relation Figure 8, the grooves 102 of the adjacent cladding sheets
may be aligned with each other/nest within each other when installed, with at least the
underlying cladding sheets fastened to the supporting structure of the building at the
base of the groove 102. Accordingly, embodiments of this system and method likewise
eliminate the need for separate "joining strips" or "joining trims". By overlapping the
grooves 102 of the underlying sheets when joining them lengthwise, the sheets may be
securely and easily installed to provide a clean finish.

above, it should be understood that they have been presented by way of example only,
and not by way of limitation. It will be apparent to a person skilled in the relevant art
that various changes in form and detail can be made therein without departing from the
spirit and scope of the invention. Thus, the present invention should not be limited by
any of the above described exemplary embodiments.
The reference in this specification to any prior publication (or information
derived from it), or to any matter which is known, is not, and should not be taken as an
acknowledgment or admission or any form of suggestion that that prior publication (or
information derived from it) or known matter forms part of the common general
