Patent ID: 8793966

Claim:
A fiber-reinforced polymeric budding panel, said building panel having a top and a bottom, defined when said budding panel is in an upright orientation, said building panel further having a height between the top and the bottom, a length, and a thickness, said building panel comprising: (a) an outer fiber-reinforced polymeric layer, said outer layer defining a first outermost surface of said building panel: (b) an inner fiber-reinforced polymeric layer, said inner layer generally defining a second outermost surface ( 25 ) of said building panel; (c) thermal insulation in a space between said inner layer and said outer layer; and (d) a plurality of studs extending from said second outermost layer, away from said first outermost layer, to stud end panels at distal ends of said studs, one of the top and the bottom of said building panel defining a draft angle of 0.25 degree to 25 degrees extending, from the inner layer, across a said stud to at least proximate the distal end panel of said stud, the draft angle being based on a base line perpendicular to said outer layer.
