Abstract

A covering and sealing assembly for concealing and sealing the gap between a pair of edge adjoining wall panels which are disposed at an angle to each other, such as at a corner. The assembly includes an exterior trim piece, a supporting member for the exterior trim piece, fastening means to tighten the supporting and clamping members together to squeeze the edges of the panels at the corner and to thus provide a structural tie therebetween, and an interior trim piece which snaps over the free vertical edges of the clamping member and hides the fastening means and the clamping member. The structural tie between the two corner panels is effected by the squeezing action of the legs of the supporting member and of the clamping member upon the faces of the adjoining wall panels at the points of contact between the faces and the supporting and clamping members.
