Composite cement panel

1. A composite panel for a rooftop surface, said composite panel comprising: a core material board having a top surface and a bottom surface with a plurality of openings through said core material board extending from said top surface to said bottom surface; a rigid outer shell of solid material that encapsulates said core material board; a plurality of supports of said solid material, wherein each of said plurality of supports extends through one of said plurality of openings in said core material board; a plurality of legs on a portion of said rigid outer shell covering said bottom surface; said plurality of legs supporting said composite panel over a surface of a structure defining a gap between said surface of said structure and a portion of said rigid outer shell over said bottom surface of said core material board; and wherein said plurality of legs define a network of multi-directional flow paths under said composite panel in said gap defined by said plurality of legs, wherein each of said flow paths directs a flow of material in a different direction, said network of flow paths including at least a first flow path and a second flow path, wherein said first flow path and said second flow path are in different directions, wherein each of said legs is cylinder shaped, and wherein each of said supports is substantially aligned with one of said legs.

2. The composite panel of claim 1 , wherein said supports are integral to said rigid outer shell.

3. The composite panel of claim 1 , wherein each of said supports is a column.

4. The composite panel of claim 1 , wherein said core material board is chemically bonded to said rigid outer shell.

5. The composite panel of claim 1 , wherein said core material board comprises a polystyrene foam board.

6. The composite panel of claim 1 , wherein said rigid outer shell comprises a cement mixture.

7. The composite panel of claim 1 , further comprising: a covering over a surface of a portion of said rigid outer shell covering said top surface of said core material board.

8. A method for producing a composite panel comprising: placing-a core material board having a top surface, a bottom surface, and a plurality of openings through said core material board from said top surface to said bottom surface-in a formwork having a base surface with a plurality of recesses defined in said base surface, a rigid outer shell of solid material that encapsulates said core material board, a plurality of supports of said solid material, wherein each of said plurality of supports extends through one of said plurality of openings in said core material board, a plurality of legs on a portion of said rigid outer shell covering said bottom surface, said plurality of legs supporting said composite panel over a surface of a structure defining a gap between said surface of said structure and a portion of said rigid outer shell over said bottom surface of said core material board, and wherein said plurality of legs define a network of multi-directional flow paths under said composite panel in said gap defined by said plurality of legs, wherein each of said flow paths directs a flow of material in a different direction, said network of flow paths including at least a first flow path and a second flow path, wherein said first flow path and said second flow path are in different directions, wherein each of said legs is cylinder shaped, and wherein each of said supports is substantially aligned with one of said legs, filling said formwork with a viscous material that fills said plurality of recesses, fills said plurality of openings in said core material board and surrounds said core material board in said formwork; and allowing said viscous material to harden into a rigid outer shell encapsulating said core material board.

9. The method of claim 8 further comprising: trowelling a top surface of said viscous material to create a smooth surface responsive to pouring said viscous material into said formwork.

10. The method of claim 8 further comprising: pouring pebbles onto a surface of said viscous material after pouring said viscous material into said formwork.

11. The method of claim 8 further comprising: pouring a colored powder onto a top surface of said viscous material after pouring said viscous material into said formwork.

12. The method of claim 8 further comprising: covering a top surface of said rigid outer shell with a material after hardening said viscous material into said rigid outer shell.

13. The method of claim 8 further comprising: removing said composite panel from said formwork after said viscous material has hardened into said rigid outer shell.

14. The method of claim 8 wherein said core material board is made of polystyrene foam.

15. The method of claim 8 further comprising: aligning each of plurality of openings through said core material board with one of said plurality of recesses in said formwork.

16. The method of claim 8 wherein said viscous material is a cement mixture.

17. The method of claim 16 further comprising: preparing said cement mixture prior to pouring said cement mixture into said formwork.
