A building construction element such as insulative siding is disclosed having an outer skin with an inner surface on which a plurality of individual, spaced-apart, arcuate-shaped projections are cut or gouged from the inner surface by a cutting tool means. A low density polymetric foam material is disposed over the inner surface so as to completely surround each arcuate projection to thereby securely lock the skin to the foam material after it sets.

A building element comprising: (a) an elongated strip of polymeric material forming an outer skin for said element, said strip having an outer facing surface and an inner surface containing a plurality of individual spaced-apart projections gouged from a portion of the thickness of the material form

A building element comprising: (a) an elongated strip of polymeric material forming an outer skin for said element, said strip having an outer facing surface and an inner surface containing a plurality of individual spaced-apart projections gouged from a portion of the thickness of the material forming said inner surface and extending above the plane of said inner surface, each of said projections being arcuate in shape and integrally connected at one end with said strip, and (b) a low density plastic material disposed over said inner surface and around said arcuate projections to mechanically lock said strip to said foam material and thereby resist separation of said strip from said foam material irrespective of the direction of movement of said strip relative to said foam material after said foam sets.
