Abstract

Abstract A conservatory roofing system comprises a ridge, eaves and glazing bars supporting glazing material between the ridge and eaves. The ridge, eaves and glazing bars are made of structural aluminium components (14) with visible surfaces covered with plastics cladding members (202). Onto internal surfaces on the plastics cladding members are mounted timber components (250) to give an appearance from the inside that the conservatory is made of timber.
