Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2021260551A1] Battens (110) for mounting on a building surface (220) such as a roof are connected by bendable, substantially inelastic connecting members (120), the length of each connecting member between adjacent pairs of the battens having a predetermined length corresponding to a predetermined batten separation (b; b1, b2). When deployed on the building surface, the batten separations (b; b1, b2) and thus positions of the battens relative to each other are maintained substantially constant by the connecting members. When stowed, however, the battens (110) lie against or immediately adjacent to each other with the connecting members (120) extending outward from between adjacent ones of the battens. A user may deploy the batten arrangement for mounting by laying it in the stowed configuration on the building surface and pulling it into the deployed configuration.
