    (54) Cladding for buildings


    (57) Cladding for a building comprising a plurality of cladding panels wherein opposing edges of adjacent panels form an overlap which extends round and engages with a load dispersing head of a bracket secured to the building characterised in that a major part of at least one of the edges forming the overlap is in continuous engagement with the load dispersing head.
    Preferred cladding utilises brackets in the form of either continuous rods or formed by shaping the edge of a panel and the use of composite panels consisting of two flexible weather resistant sheets separated by a layer of flame resistant thermal insulant such as mineral wool or a phenolic plastics foam.
