  • Evaluation of Fire-Retardant Treatments for Wood Shingles
    EVALUATION OF FIRE-RETARDANT TREATMENTS FOR WOOD SHINGLES U.S.D.A. FOREST SERVICE RESEARCH PAPER FPL 158-1971 U.S. Department of Agriculture • Forest Service • Forest Products Laboratory • Madison, Wis. SUMMARY Wood shingles and shakes are esthetically de­ sirable and durable, but have been restricted for some uses because of their performance under fire conditions. Suitable fire-retardant systems would further improve the utility of shingles and shakes and insure consumer confidence. For this reason, numerous fire-retardant treatment systems were evaluated for their fire performance and durability. The evaluation used western redcedar shingles in two phases of the study. In the first phase, the fire- retardant treatments were evaluated for method of application and general fire performance under three fire test methods. In the second phase of the study, the more promising treatment systems were evaluated for durability by weathering exposure under two con­ ditions, and then fire tested. Four treatment systems promised the most fire- retardant effectiveness following weather and leach­ ing exposures. Three were impregnationtreatments in which the chemical fire retardants were heat cured in the shingles to reduce their water solubility: (1) Tris (1-aziridinyl) phosphine oxide, (2) tetrakis (hydroxy­ methyl) phosphonium chloride with urea and a mel­ amine, and (3) dicyandiamide and phosphoric acid. The fourth treatment was an impregnation with for­ mulation AWPA Type D, followed by coating with a sealer solution containing tricresyl phosphate added as a fire-retardant. A coating of an epoxy paint also gave satisfactory performance, except for resistance to severe flaming ignition. All four treatment systems need further work to develop optimum treatment levels which give suffi­ cient fire-retardant effectiveness, durability, and ac­ ceptable treated-wood properties and yet are econom­ ically feasible for the product.

  • Cedar Shakes & Shingles Application
    ApplicationApplication HandbookHandbook Product Description estern Red Cedar is scientifically classified as Wa “Durable” species in the United Kingdom and because of this durability it is widely favoured by architects and engineers seeking an aesthetically pleasing, light weight alternative to traditional roof and wall tiles. For over a century Western Red Cedar Shakes and Shingles have proven to be a superior material for roof and wall cladding which is durable, warm and resisitant to extremes of wind and weather. In an environmentally conscious world they are clearly the Natural Choice! Installed Weights: Type Weight per kg/m2 #1 400mm shingles 9.7 #1 600mm shingles 20.8 Premium Grade 600mm Medium Shakes 18.2 Premium Grade 600mm Heavy Shakes 27.0 Material for this manual has been compiled from various authorities in Canada and specialists in the United Kingdom. Minor variations from the application principles may occur between regional speciaists but in no instance should these compromise the integrity of the roof or walls provided by the details in this manual. Shakes 1. Hand split and Resawn Shakes Cedar blocks of appropriate length are split by a hydraulically powered knife, called a cuber, into straight boards, or blanks. Then the blank is fed into a bandsaw, which saws the blank from corner to corner, producing 2 tapered shakes, each with a natural split face and sawn back. Shakes are produced in 2 lengths, 455mm and 610mm, and 2 grades, Number 1, which allows 20% flat grain content, and Premium Grade, which is 100% vertical grain. Shakes are available in Heavy (19mm), Medium (13mm), and Jumbo (25mm) butt thickness.
