Coping, cills, and thresholds are important architectural elements used in construction projects to provide a finishing touch to the exterior and interior of a building. They serve both practical and aesthetic purposes, such as providing protection against the elements, preventing water ingress, and enhancing the appearance of a structure.
Coping is the term used to describe the protective covering that is placed on top of walls, parapets, and other architectural features to protect them from weathering and erosion. Coping can be made from a variety of materials, including concrete, stone, brick, and metal.
Coping is designed to provide a layer of protection to a building’s walls and roof, preventing water from seeping into the building and causing damage.
Coping can also be used to enhance the appearance of a building, with a wide range of styles, shapes, and colours available to suit any design scheme.
