    摘要: An architectural cover panel system of individually adaptive panels for covering structural support members of an underlying structure such as girders. An individual adaptive panel includes a sheet of flexible material having a generally convex cross-section and is provided with corrugations oriented perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the panel. In one preferred embodiment the convex panel is provided with edge portions attached to the lateral sides of the panel. The edge portions are similarly provided with corrugations oriented parallel to and intersecting or merging into the corrugations of the convex panel portion. In other embodiments of the invention, panels having radial corrugations are used allowing the panels to respond to dimensional changes due to temperature effects and to resist wind forces without deforming the shape of the overall structure, and panels with diagonal corrugations provide bidirectional flexibility.
