The carrier is of any suitable form and can include one or more side flanges 12, 13 although this is not necessary. The plurality of pairs of lugs 15, 16 are provided on the body or on the or each flange, the pairs of lugs being longitudinally spaced from one another and the centre lines of the lugs of a pair being laterally spaced. The lugs of a pair are of two types. the first type 15 being substantially rigid and including a tongue 17 spaced from the adjacent flange surface to accommodate the rim 35 of one panel and the arm 33 of an adjacent panel and the second type of lug 16 is mounted on the body or the flange 12, 13 to urge the arm 33 and rim 35 of two adjacent panels against the tongue of the first type of lug One of the lugs of a pair may be used to form a retaining element 27 which can be bent down, when it is not being used to support the rim and flange of a particular panel. so that it can retain the side portion of a panel which is being supported by an adjacent pair of lugs 15, 16.
