A composite board that can be fastened by fastening means which goes through the board from one face to the op site face, said composite board providing a retraction resistance of at least 15 pounds. The board comprises a polymer sheet having two opposed faces wherein each face has a lightweight sheet material attached to it, wherein the polymer sheet can be punctured and penetrated by fastening means and the polymer sheet is deflected snugly around the fastening means where the sheet is punctured so that the sheet provides resistance to removing the fastening means. The polymer sheet may comprise polyamide, polystyrene, polyvinyl chloride, polyester, or acrylic, and has a preselected thickness in the range of 30 to 50 mils.

[ We claim:] [1.] A composite board for use in building construction and adapted to be attached to a building with fasteners, said composite board comprising:a polymer sheet having two opposed faces and being formed of a thickness and polymer composition that are preselected such that penetration of said polymer sheet by a fastener causes said polymer sheet to deflect around the fastener, said composite board having a predetermined retraction resistance and a predetermined capacity to bear a load carried by the fastener;a first sheet of material being attached to one of said opposed faces of said polymer sheet;a second sheet of material being attached to the other one of said opposed faces of said polymer sheet;said composite board being securable to the building with the fasteners extending through said first sheet of material, said polymer sheet and said second sheet of material so as to completely penetrate said composite board and, when so secured, providing a load bearing panel to which an ancillary facade can be attached; andwherein said preselected thickness of said polymer sheet is in the range of from about 30 to about 50 mils and wherein said preselected polymer composition is selected from the group consisting of polyamide, polystyrene, polyvinyl chloride, polyester, and acrylic, said thickness and polymer composition in conjunction with said first and second sheets providing a retraction resistance of at least about 15 pounds.
