Abstract

A building component in the form of a board-like distance plate having a lattice of horizontal and vertical ribs. Frusto-pyramid projections (3) extend from the intersections of the ribs on one side of the board and domes (4) extend from the other side of the board between the ribs and cover a larger surface area than the projections (3). The domes form cavities which are interconnected by virtue of the projections spacing the plate from a wall or other surface.
