  2. Roof shingle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roof_shingle

    Roof shingles, like other building materials on vernacular buildings, are typically of a material locally available. The type of shingle is taken into account before construction because the material affects the roof pitch and construction method: Some shingles can be installed on lath where others need solid sheathing (sheeting) on the roof deck .

  3. Interference colour chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interference_colour_chart

    When using the chart, it is important to remember these tips: Isotropic and opaque (metallic) minerals cannot be identified this way. The stage of the microscope should be rotated until maximum colour is found, and therefore, the maximum birefringence. Each mineral, depending on the orientation, may not exhibit the maximum birefringence.

  4. Glued laminated timber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glued_laminated_timber

    Glulam brace with plates used for connections Glulam frame of a roof structure. Glued laminated timber, commonly referred to as glulam, is a type of structural engineered wood product constituted by layers of dimensional lumber bonded together with durable, moisture-resistant structural adhesives so that all of the grain runs parallel to the longitudinal axis.

  5. Laminated veneer lumber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laminated_veneer_lumber

    The invention of laminated veneer lumber as known today can be attributed to Arthur Troutner. While glue laminated wood veneers were in use since the middle of the 19th century on a small scale for furniture and pianos, Troutner was the first to develop a laminated veneer lumber of a scale large enough to be used in construction.

  6. Reflective surfaces (climate engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflective_surfaces...

    The albedo of several types of roofs (lower values means higher temperatures). Reflective surfaces, or ground-based albedo modification (GBAM), is a solar radiation management method of enhancing Earth's albedo (the ability to reflect the visible, infrared, and ultraviolet wavelengths of the Sun, reducing heat transfer to the surface).

  7. Wood shingle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood_shingle

    Shingle fabrication was revolutionized in the early 19th century by steam-powered sawmills. Shingle mills made possible the production of uniform shingles in mass quantities. The sawn shingle of uniform taper and smooth surface eliminated the need to hand dress. The supply of wooden shingles was, therefore, no longer limited by local factors.

  8. Cross-laminated timber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-laminated_timber

    Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is a subcategory of engineered wood panel product made from gluing together at least three layers of solid-sawn lumber at angles to each other. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is similar to plywood but with distinctively thicker laminations (or lamellae).

  9. Roof tiles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roof_tiles

    The color of slate tiles is a result of the amount and type of iron and organic material that are present, and most often ranges from light to dark gray. Some shades of slate used for roofing can be shades of green, red, black, purple, and brown.
