Cedar shakes are the ideal roofing material for many areas of the Western United States. A wood roof keeps your house warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer. A Meeker shake roof can endure 130 mph winds. In the winter, a Meeker cedar roof will effectively shed snow and ice. Cedar shakes are resistive to thermal shock associated with freeze-thaw conditions. Where fire is a hazard, Meeker cedar shakes optionally treated with FTX are fire retardant for life. 3, record 1, English, - wood%20roof

Ice dams are the large mass of ice that collects on the lower edge of the roof or in the gutters. As more melting snow(or rain) runs down the roof, it meets this mass of ice and backs up, sometimes under the shingles and into the attic or the house. Ice damming usually occurs with a significant depth of snow on the roof. 1, record 2, English, - ice%20damming

...] bien des maisons présentent des accumulations de glace sur le débord des toitures inclinées ou sur certaines parties des toits plats. [...] Ces barrières de glace sont causées par la fonte de la couche inférieure de la neige tombée sut le toit provoquée par la chaleur du vide sous toit. Quand la température est tout juste inférieure au point de congélation entre (O et moins 10 °C), l'eau s'écoule sur le toit, sous la neige, et gèle lorsqu'elle atteint une portion non chauffée du toit. Ce processus peut entraîner la formation d'une barrière de glace à la partie inférieure d'une toiture inclinée. L'eau peut alors remonter sous les bardeaux et s'infiltrer dans le vide sous toit. 1, record 2, French, - formation%20d%27une%20barri%C3%A8re%20de%20glace

Les charpentes de toit sont parfois endommagées par la formation de digues de glace. La neige qui fond et regèle continuellement sous l'action de la chaleur qui s'échappe de la maison, ou la névasse qui remonte des gouttières, forment les digues de glace. L'eau coule sous la neige et gèle au contact du soffite non chauffé, créant la digue de glace. Lorsque cela se produit, l'eau peut être forcée sous les bardeaux et dans le comble, causant des dommages aux plafonds, aux murs, à l'isolant, aux gouttières, à l'avant-toit et au toit de la maison. 4, record 2, French, - formation%20d%27une%20barri%C3%A8re%20de%20glace
