Ask your local firefighters about shake roofs ... They will tell you that wet shake roofs are very slippery. In the summer, a dry shake roof doesn't just burn, it can explode. And a burning shake roof can throw off embers and help spread the fire. In some parts of the country wood roofs may only be used if they are treated with a fire retardant (not to be confused with shakes treated against rot). 2, record 1, English, - shake%20roof

Au début, on fendait les bardeaux manuellement, à l'aide d'une hachette et d'un maillet, une fois les billes tronçonnées à la longueur requise. [...] Aujourd'hui, les bardeaux de fente sont obtenus à partir de plaquettes à double épaisseur fendues à la main et sciées par la suite en oblique [...] Au Québec, la grande majorité des bardeaux de fente sont obtenus à partir du thuya occidental (cèdre) et ils servent à la fabrication de revêtements pour les toitures et les murs extérieurs des maisons. On s'en sert aussi comme revêtement décoratif à l'intérieur des résidences et des bureaux. 3, record 1, French, - toit%20en%20bardeaux%20de%20fente
