Specification of Letters Patent.

Application lcd June 10. 1913. Serial No. 772,907
lie it known that l, Bun'roN ll. (inne-E. a citizen otl the United States, residing at Anderson, in the county of Madison and State ot' Indiana, have invented a new and useful Roofing.;- Member, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is to produce a roofing of members of sheet material of such form that they may be readily produced by the ordinary sheet metal workers tools and such that when placed in position with adjacent edges overlapping it will prevent the water from creeping.,Y back through the joint. 'lhe'accompanying drawings `illustrate my invention.
Figure l is a fragmentary perspective view showing: the form oi' the sheet and the manner ot plat-iner same. the sheet in this position having' its main body plain or flat with opposite edges formed in accordance with my invention: and Fig. :2 is a similar view ot' the embodiment ot' my invention in corrugated sheet material.
lnthedrawings10indicates the main body ot the sheet provided along' one edge with a V-shaped rib formed by the upwardly inclined portion l1 and the downwardly inclined portion 12, said rib being so formed as to straddle, and fit the wooden strip 13 which is applied to sheathing14 at the time the rooting sheet is placed in position. At its opposite edge sheet 10 is provided with upwardly inclined portion 15, and an adjacent downwardly inclined portion 16 which terminates in an in-turned lip or edge 17 which preferably lies nearly or quite at right angles to the portion 16 and has a height cxeeedine the thickness of a column of water maintainable between adjacent surfaces of the roofing member by capillary attraction. The angle of inclination of the portion 15 is substantially the same as the angle of incl1-y nation of the portion 12 and the height of this portion 15 is such that the portion 16 at its highest point lies snugly upon the ridge of the lip 11-12 but thesangle of inclination of the portion 16, because of lip 17 is less than that of the underlying portion 11 so that when the parts are assembled, as shown in Fig. 1, the free edge of the lip 17 lies closely against the portion 11 of the adjacent sheet-and thus forms an air chamber 18the height of which exceeds the capillary mssibilities between the two sheets. Nails it) are then driven through the portions. lt' and l1 and the underlyingr wooden strip 13 into sheathing.boards and, because ot the lip 17 lyingr nearly or quite at righty angles to the portion 11 against which lit engages, there is no material bending down of the upper sheet portion lt under the action ot' the nails. ln order to make the parts lie snugly where an upper series of sheets overlies the lower sheets, the root' layer can, without ditlculty, straighten out a short length of lip 17 at the upper corner of the sheet, as indicated at the upper right hand portion of Fig. 1, thuspermittlng the portions 16 of the lower series of the sheets to flatten down beneath the lower ends of the upper series.
' lt will be noticed that the lorm of the sheet is such that it can be produced by the ordinary machinery and that thcsheets will stack snugly for transportation.
lhe structure shown in Fig. 2 is substantially the same as that shown in Fig. l the only dill'erence residingin the fact that the main body 10 ot the sheet is longitudinally corrugated in au ordinary manner and no wooden strip is required.
l claim as my invention:
1. .X roofing' member provided adjacent one edge with a longitudinal rib formed by a portion upwardly inclined "trom the body ot the member and an adjacent downwardly onpositely inclined portion, and atI the other ecgre provided with a rib formed by an upwardly inclined portion and an adjacent downwardly and oppositely inclined portion which latter portion extends to the edge of the body of the member and there is pr0 vided with a lip turned under substantially at right angles substantially as and for the purpose, set forth.
A roofing, comprising a pluralityof members each of which is provided at one edge with a longitudinal rib formed by a portion upwardly inclined from the body of the member and an adjacent downwardly and oppositely inclined portion and is provided at the other edge with a rib formed by an upwardly inclined portion and an adjacent downwardly and oppositely inclined portion which latter portion extends to the ede'e. of the body ot' the member and is there provided with a lip turned under substantially at right angles to such portion, said -second rib of one member extending over land resting directly upon the first named rib of an adjacent member so that the first portion of said second rib rests upon the second portion of the {i1-st rib and the second portion of the second rib is spaced by said lip from the first portion of the first rib.
In WitnessI whereof, I have hereunto set- BURTON HERBERT GEDGE.
