Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT

Snow guards are objects used to hold snow on slippery roofs. ... Some snow guards are attached mechanically, while others are adhered to the roof surface. ... Multiple rows of snow guards spaced well apart up the roof are better at holding snow in place (i.e., avoiding the dynamic loads created by sliding snow) than one row of last-resort snow guards placed near the eaves.  7, fiche 1, Anglais, - snow%20guard

ice dam: This term was submitted to our language information service and appeared in the following sentence: "An ice dam is being installed at the back of the building to stop any ice and snow from falling on the deck." However, since we could not validate this use of the term in any other source, we do not recommend its usage. An "ice dam" is normally (and correctly) used to designate a ridge of ice that forms at the edge of an inadequately insulated and ventilated roof and prevents melting snow (water) from draining off the roof, causing ice damming (in French "digue de glace").  8, fiche 1, Anglais, - snow%20guard

L'installation d'un système d'arrêt-glace va à l'encontre du but premier recherché par les techniques d'isolation et de ventilation des toitures : c'est-à-dire empêcher la formation, à la base du toit, d'une digue de glace qui provoquerait au moindre dégel des infiltrations d'eau, une usure prématurée, etc. On provoquerait artificiellement et avec une quasi certitude des risques de dégâts.  4, fiche 1, Français, - arr%C3%AAt%20de%20neige

When snow and ice melt, trapped water can infiltrate to damage the roof deck and interior. Ice Guard [trademark] is installed under shingled roofing to prevent water damage from ice dams. ... Applied under the shingles, Ice Guard forms a long-lasting waterproof barrier, unlike normal shingle underlayment. Ice Guard is warranted to protect against water leakage, where it has been applied, for the warranted life of the new shingled roof.  2, fiche 2, Anglais, - ice%20guard

Record number: 2, Textual support number: 2 OBS

An ice dam is a build up of ice and water that works its way under shingles/shakes.

Most roofs have a single layer of underlayment (i.e. builder's felt) that protects against moisture penetration and in many northern states an extra waterproofing membrane is required by building codes.  5, fiche 2, Anglais, - ice%20guard
