Abstract
Abstract Coping and fascia trim for the edge of a building structure is comprised of a pair of elongated interconnectable trim strips each having a continuous anchor flange securable to the roof and a skirt depending to overlie the building facade. The strips are interconnected by a tongue and stirrup at the skirt edges and are dimensioned to provide spacing between the anchor flanges for a roofing layer. Optionally the trim may accommodate fascia insulating board between the skirts and roof insulation board between the anchor flanges.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim
153 words
Coping and fascia trim in combination with the roof edge of a building comprising: a coping strip and a fascia strip, each strip having a roof anchor portion by which it is secured directly to the roof of a building and a skirt portion integrally joined thereto at a juncture and depending from said juncture to overlie the facade of the building below the roof edge; the respective skirts having free edges remote from said juncture; co-operating formations at said free skirt edges forming an interconnection between said coping and fascia strips, and a relatively thick insulating fascia board installed between said skirts and seated at the interconnection formed thereby to insulate the wall of the building adjacent the roof edge; said coping and fascia strips being assembled in superposed relation with their free skirt edges interconnected as aforesaid and their roof anchor portions spaced and disposed to sandwich roofing material between them.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
153 words
Coping and fascia trim in combination with the roof edge of a building comprising: a coping strip and a fascia strip, each strip having a roof anchor portion by which it is secured directly to the roof of a building and a skirt portion integrally joined thereto at a juncture and depending from said juncture to overlie the facade of the building below the roof edge; the respective skirts having free edges remote from said juncture; co-operating formations at said free skirt edges forming an interconnection between said coping and fascia strips, and a relatively thick insulating fascia board installed between said skirts and seated at the interconnection formed thereby to insulate the wall of the building adjacent the roof edge; said coping and fascia strips being assembled in superposed relation with their free skirt edges interconnected as aforesaid and their roof anchor portions spaced and disposed to sandwich roofing material between them.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
34 words
The combination as claimed in claim 1 wherein: said roof anchor portion and said skirt, in each said strip, are each planar and extend continuously in the direction of the length of the strip.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
43 words
The combination as claimed in claim 1 wherein: said juncture between said roof anchor portion and said skirt on the coping strip is contoured to provide a dam for inhibiting flow of liquifiable roofing materials from said roof anchor portion over said skirt.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
45 words
The combination as claimed in claim 1 wherein: said juncture between the roof anchor portion and the skirt on the fascia strip is contoured to provide an abutment to extend above the plane of said roof anchor portion and to form a gravel stop thereupon.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
30 words
The combination as claimed in claim 1 wherein: said strips are relatively proportioned for providing accommodation for insulating board between said roof anchor portions together with the roof material aforesaid.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
39 words
The combination as claimed in claim 5 wherein: said strips are relatively proportioned to provide spacing between said skirts accommodating fascia board therebetween to extend above the level of the said insulating board accommodated between said roof anchor portions.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
34 words
The combination as claimed in claim 5 wherein: said coping strip is perforated at positions locatable adjacent the edges of said insulating board for providing venting of pressurized air entrapped under the roof material.
Claim 9
