What is shingle?
Shingle is one of the relatively cheap materials for covering the sloping roof, which protects the house against wind, rain and noise, and is available in the market with various designs and colors. The use of shingle roof covering on sloping roofs, roofs of residential houses, villa roofs and gable roofs is very common and widely used. Also, the implementation of shingle sloping roof covering on the roof is very easy and has a lot of flexibility during installation. These days, there are various types of shingles with different designs and different thicknesses.
Shingle is one of the most used roof coverings in America. They can be used for 20 to 50 years and can be recycled in some cases. Asphalt shingle was first used in 1901 in America. At first, it was performed using organic materials or pieces of cotton fabric, and after a while, due to the increase in the cost of raw materials, wool was used, and then wood was also used. Finally, with the advancement of technology and experiments of research institutions Differently, fiberglass was recognized as the best shingle in terms of resistance in 1960, and since 1990, asphalt shingle has been used in its current form.
Shingle is one of the most important and common types of sloping roof coverings, which is used to cover the roof of villas, gazebos and sheds. This type of coating is produced in different colors, shapes and materials and makes the interior and exterior of the sloping roof beautiful. Today, shingle is used as the main covering of the sloping roof of residential, office and commercial buildings. The angle of inclination in the sloping shingle roof varies between 15 and 70 degrees. This type of coating consists of different layers such as bitumen, fiberglass and stone granules. The components of this type of cover are rectangular, flat and flat.
Shingle is one of the materials used to cover luxury and villa sloping roofs. This product will last a long time because its main layer is bitumen. In addition, it creates a unified surface that is resistant to factors such as water leakage or strong winds. Natural granules are also used in this type of material, which makes the main layer of the product safe from factors such as physical damage or color change.
If osb board is used, the shingle will become a cooling, heating or even sound insulation. This even affects the durability of the product. Also, the colors used for it will have high stability against sunlight and the passage of time.
Quality characteristics of shingle
Fiberglass layer saturated by high quality bitumen with mineral grains and various colors.
Easy installation, light and beautiful insulation, flexible and with European and American standards
Shingle should be applied when the surface slope is more than 30%.
Due to the small thickness of this product, it is easy to carry and light, and this small thickness consists of 5 layers.
First layer: It is the upper and outer layer of shingle on which natural sea pebbles are placed
The second layer: or the so-called bottom layer, there is a special bitumen.
The third layer: the fiberglass layer is saturated, which increases the strength of the shingle.
Fourth layer: There is a heat-sensitive adhesive to stick the sheet.
The fifth layer: The last layer or the bottom layer of the shingle is called the silicone layer with high resistance
Features and benefits of shingle roof
Shingle is highly resistant to moisture, water, weather changes such as rain and snow. Drops of water and moisture do not penetrate the bottom layer of this type of coating over time. Of course, this cover resists the penetration of moisture and water due to the insulation installed under the shingle. Today, this type of covering has replaced other sloping roof coverings such as wooden and iron coverings. Because wooden coverings are not resistant to moisture and water and suffer from decay and erosion. Iron coatings also rust against moisture and chemical compounds.
This type of coating is very resistant to ultraviolet and infrared rays of the sun. The rays of sunlight cause the destruction of chemical compounds and the color of various coatings of the sloping roof. But the stone granules used in this type of coating play an important role in color stability and prevent the color of the sloping shingle roof from fading. Therefore, the higher the quality of the stone granules used in the structure of this type of coating, the more effective it is against sunlight.
One of the most important advantages of the sloping shingle roof is that it is easy
