The tiles, c, having the raised ledges d at the edges, in combination with the supporting-ribs a, channeled to receive the edges of the tiles, and having the projecting overhanging flanges b, substantially as herein described.     2. In a skylight, the tiles c, fitted to the supporting-ribs, and having their lateral meeting edges formed with the projecting flanges g g', and the uniting-bolts h, substantially as herein described.

3. In a skylight, the ribs a, with the channels to receive the edges of the tiles, and the projecting flanges b, said ribs having the flanges cut away at a', and slotted to receive the strips i after the tiles have been set, substantially as herein described.     4. In combination with the ribs a, resting upon the wall k, the tiles c, the gutter l, and the plate m, having the flanges or lips n and o, substantially as herein described.     In witness whereof I hereunto set my hand.
