Abstract:
1. A pultruded trim structure for a building, comprising: a two-piece pultruded fiber reinforced resin construction cornice assembly including: the first end portion including a wall that folds back upon itself in a generally serpentine manner, and forms both a rearwardly disposed nailing surface and an integrally formed frieze channel that receives a siding, a brick, or a stone veneering, so that upon fastening the frieze to an underlying surface at the nailing surface, and upon insertion of the siding, the brick, or stone veneering, the fastener is concealed from view; the generally vertical member further including a protrusion, the protrusion including a bulbous convex portion and the protrusion is located proximal to the first end portion and extending away from the wall that folds back upon itself in a generally serpentine manner; and wherein the pultruded construction expands and contracts less than the expansion or contraction of steel over a given temperature range; and further wherein the surface of the pultruded construction is resistant to rot, and is resistant to indentation.
