Abstract
This application relates to the field of reveal architectural panel assemblies. The apparatus replaces prior art assembly methods and fasteners with a particular mounting structure to facilitate assembly. The frame extrusions are modified to facilitate assembly with adhesive sealants and removal of mechanical fasteners and increase ease in adaptation and installation.
Claims10
An architectural panel assembly configured to be attached to a building surface, the panel assembly comprising:
- a first outer panel comprising a first face panel, a first side panel, wherein the first face panel, the first side panel, are a unitary structure, the first side panel, formed by bending the first face panel;
- a first frame member fixed to the first outer panel;
- the first frame member having a laterally extending portion configured to be mounted directly to the building surface;
- a second outer panel comprising a second face panel, a second side panel, wherein the second face panel, the second side panel, are a unitary structure, the second side panel, formed by bending the second face panel;
- the laterally extending portion of the first frame member protruding laterally beyond the first side panel;
- a second frame member fixed to the second outer panel;
- the second frame member having a protrusion configured to laterally engage a surface defining a receiver in the first frame member;
- the protrusion of the second frame member offset from the laterally extending portion of the first frame member, forming a gap therebetween;
- and
- the protrusion of the second frame member extends laterally beyond the second side panel.
