Abstract The application refers to an element within profiled roofing and wall cladding systems as used in commercial and domestic construction. Our system is an eave sealant (referred to as "RIS) that encloses the profile gap between the purlin & roof. The application is for a RIS with an internal metal barrier that is protected in the front & the back by a foam or a rubber sponge material. The facing foam or rubber if it is of a type that conforms to BAL29 , is not compromised by this insert. The metal barrier is inserted to stop rodents from gnawing through the RIS thereby negating the RIS functions whether that function is be for sealing purposes of a roofing profile or for sealing & fire resistant purposes of the roofing profile The complete construction(Fig), and the exploded version of the construction (fig2) showing how it is made of the back foam or rubber, the internal metal barrier & the front foam or rubber All RIS created in this format can be made to match the profile of the roof being used and when used, create a dust and air seal , water, insect & rodent seal (fig3).
