ROOFING PANELS WITH WATER SHEDDING FEATURES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240035281 titled 'ROOFING PANELS WITH WATER SHEDDING FEATURES
Simplified Explanation
The abstract of this patent application describes roofing panels with water shedding features that can be used as an alternative to traditional roofing materials or as an underlayment for them. These water shedding features can be integrated into the base of the panels, the frame of the panels, or as part of a waterproofing layer applied to the base. The panels can also be installed in overlapping courses along a roof, with water shedding features applied or incorporated along the edges. These features collect and divert water away from the upper surfaces and joints between the panels.
