Patent ID: 7487618

Claim:
An assembly attached to an outer side of a perimeter overhang, or a part therein, of a roof on a walled structure, said assembly comprising: a) an elongated fascia member having an outer face including at least a lower face portion, an intermediate face portion and an upper face portion consecutively adjoining to form a generally arch-like cross-sectional shape for the outer face of said fascia member, wherein said upper face portion, or a segment thereof, planar or curved, generally being disposed with an upper end edge thereof in close proximity to, facing substantially horizontally and opposed to, and longitudinally in parallel with, an upper and outer edge of said outer side of said perimeter overhang, and laterally extending generally outwardly away from said perimeter overhang and forming an angle within 55° of a roof plane where said upper face portion approaches said perimeter overhang, wherein the user end edge does not extend substantially above said roof plane; said lower face portion, or a segment thereof, planar or curved, generally being disposed with a lower edge thereof above or in proximity to, and longitudinally in parallel with, a lower and outer edge of said perimeter overhang, and laterally extending generally outwardly away from said perimeter overhang; said intermediate face portion, having one or more planar or curved segments, connecting said lower face portion and said upper face portion; and wherein slope change across a junction between all adjacent face portions, and between all adjacent segments therein, being generally within 55°; whereby to reduce aerodynamic forces on said roof; (b) a mounting device to secure said elongated fascia member onto said perimeter overhang.
