Abstract
Abstract An outer heat insulating structure on a building roof comprises a plurality of covering layer panels provided with a heat insulating layer and female screw members secured at corner portions in the covering layer panel in alignment with through-apertures provided therein with threaded rods capable of being threadedly engaged with the female screw members. Rubbery elastic members are arranged on a waterproof layer provided on the building roof and members which are secured to the rubbery elastic members and support rotatably lower ends of the threaded rods. A heat insulating layer is defined between the covering layer panel and the waterproof layer.
