Separating membrane of plastic material, made up of a bossed and waterproof sheet which is coupled with a permeable base layer. The bosses are of the cylindrical type with a double diameter and have such a shape and arrangement as to feature improved adhesion on both faces. The gripping of the adhesive is increased in order to obtain greater tear strength, on the upper face, and at the same time increases the area of contact with the base layer for a greater resistance to delamination on the lower face. In particular, inside each chamber there is an internal crown, which divides it like a necking into two superimposed compartments having the same diameter, wherein the first compartment has a depth amounting to at least ⅓ of the total. A production process for obtaining the membrane is also disclosed.

Roof covering (I) for flat roofs, comprises (A) a polymeric sealing layer and (C) a self-adhesive layer, separated by a soft elastomeric intermediate layer (B).

Described herein is a building panel comprising a body comprising a first fibrous material comprising inorganic fiber, a non-woven scrim coupled to the body; and wherein the non-woven scrim has a thickness ranging from about 8 mils to about 20 mils.

A structural insulated panel, SIP, (101) for a building (100) in which the SIP is attachable to another such SIP (101) to provide a structure of the building (100). The SIP (101) comprises a frame (200), a first board (208) attached to a first face of the frame (200), a second board (209) attached to a second face of the frame (200) and an insulating layer (401) bounded by the frame (200) and the first (208) and second boards (209). The frame (200) is fibre-reinforced plastic, FRP. The frame (200) has a joining surface that faces away from the centroid of the SIP (101) so as to be mateable with a joining surface of a frame of another such SIP (101).

A portable shelter with electromagnetic interference (EMI) protection includes a plurality of walls that define an interior space. The walls can be fixed or movable. An EMI protected edge connector joins at least two of the walls together. The EMI protected edge connector assembly can be fixed or hinged. The edge connector can include a metallic outer edge member with two legs and a separate metallic inner edge member with two legs to define an edge channel therebetween with: (i) the first outer leg and the first inner leg are arranged parallel and spaced-apart relative to each other; and (ii) the second outer leg and the second inner leg arranged parallel and spaced-apart relative to each other. The shelter walls can include an inner surface covered by a metallic foil inner layer. A first wall panel is received in a first portion of the edge channel with its metallic foil inner layer contacting the inner edge member and a second wall panel is received in a second portion of the edge channel with it metallic foil inner layer contacting the inner edge member.

The panel includes a water resistant barrier layer secured atop its outward facing surface. The water resistant barrier layer includes a skid resistant surface. The panels are made of lignocellulosic material. The water resistant and skid resistant surface may include indicia for aligning strips of tape or for aligning fasteners. A method for manufacturing the water resistant building panels is also disclosed and includes the steps of feeding paper onto a forming belt, depositing lignocellulosic material and the binding agent onto the forming belt so as to form a lignocellulosic mat, applying heat and pressure so as to impart the skid resistant surface on the paper, and cutting panels to predetermined sizes.

One aspect of the disclosure is a siding panel having a front face, a rear face, a top edge, a bottom edge, a first side, and a second side, the top edge being folded over to create two layers of material. The siding panel further includes a first locking mechanism disposed on the front face adjacent the top edge configured to interlock with a second locking mechanism of a second siding panel, the first locking mechanism having a generally S-shaped portion. The siding panel also includes a second locking mechanism disposed on the rear face of the siding panel having a generally U-shaped portion including a curved section, and the second locking mechanism being configured to interlock with a first locking mechanism of a third siding panel. The first locking mechanism and the second locking mechanism facilitate both locking and unlocking of the siding panel from the third siding panel.
