Figs. 4, 5 and 6 are fragmentary perspective views showing various steps in the fabrication of another modification; and

d In the drawings, in which like characters relate to nlike parts A is a lfoundation upon which the flexible roofing material is built. This foundation is preferably a sheet of asphalt saturated felt, although asphalt impregnated burlap or other suitable fabric may be used. lTo each surface of this foundation A may be applied a layer of coating asphalt of desired character. saturated felt sheet formingl the foundation is scored at K so as to provide an end portion C1 which may be readily detached from the body C lof the foundation A. As stated above layers of asphalt are preferably applied to the upper and lower surface of the foundation. The lower layer, however,v may, if desired, be dispensed with but the top layer Dis the cementing layer or mastic into which lis embeddeda woven fabric strip' F, preferably a f canvas orburlap that has been saturated with asphalt. This canvas extendsthe entire length of the roofing sheet but extends only-a portion ofthe 'way across the sheet.
:VAS clearly shown in 3 the saturatedY canvas 'fis arranged so thatait has one' edge registering f-"withthe fedge ofthe foundation portionr C1 and' `extends':inwarcll over the 'scoring-K toaa pointy f intermediate l the-scoring` and. 'the4 ropposite .f edge' f'tlije'ffoundati'on A; the distance 'dependingupon.:-Vv
the surface of this is applied a. layer H of sand or.other suitable fine granular or powdered material placed therein to lprevent adhesion of a Thel superposed layer of the prepared roofing to the saturated canvas strip F. Over the strip F is a layer E of asphalt saturated burlap which is coextensive in area with the area of the saturated ieltlfoundation A.
In the manufacture of the roong, it is preferable to stitch, by a row of stitching G extending longitudinally of the saturated burlap and the saturated canvas strip before applying the saturated canvas and the burlap to the layer of asphalt D on top of the saturated felt foundation A. The saturated burlap is held in adhesive contact with the saturted felt foundtion A by the layer of asphalt D on top of the foundation A except that area of the burlap sheet E which extends over the saturated canvas F. This area is kept free from adhesion or permanent adhesion with the saturated canvas F by a layer of sand ap'- plied over the surface of the canvas F as described above. After the burlap has been cemented to the foundation as stated, it may be 'given a coating of asphalt and sand or other suitable fine mineral may be applied over the weather surface either in the form of powder, granules or flakes and the lower surface of the saturated felt foundation A is preferably coated with so'apstone or other suitable non-adhering material to prevent adhesion of the convolutions, after which the prepared roofing is rolled for transportation.
In the application of the improved roofing a ply of the roofing B is laid on the roof and nailed in position thereon by nails or otherwise held in contact with the roof as for instance at J in Fig. 1. The next layer of roofing, as shown in Fig. 1, is then ready for applicatipn. Before applying it, however, the portion C1 is removed along the scoring K, which removes a portion of the saturated felt shown as C1 in Fig. 2 and a portion of the saturated canvas F with the sand coating I-I. The canvas F is provided with a scoring as isthe felt foundation A as indicated in Figure 3. Then `Athe ply of roofing is laid so that what was fornierly the scoring Khas, by removal'of the portion C1,'becomethelongitudinal edge of the roofing proper and this is laid close against the layer of roofing B as shown in Fig.-1,after which the ap shown in Fig. 2`consisting of the loose portion of `the saturated burlap strip'E is, after the' roong .-has'- been nailed or otherwise .xed in place, '1. brought down A over the nail -J .as shown in Fig. 1,
-if nails vare `used,;and` then cemented by a suitable tached and to the top surface of the next adjacent strip B, as shown in Fig. 1, so as to xedly cement, such as asphalt, to thevtop surface ofjthe s sand in the roofing strip to which the flap is at` secure the iiap in place. It will be seen that this prepared roofing applied as stated seals and protects nail heads and any joints between adjacent plies of roofing so as to avoid any deterioration of the roofing as it is applied by reason of any openings in the joints or any corrosion of the nails and has many other advantages. It will be noted that by having the portion C1 left in place but readily detachable, the roofing can be rolled without danger to the flap edge that would arise if the flap were not provided with the underlying protecting portion C1, especially when the roofing was being rolled and handled in transportation, since the flap end of the roll would not have sufficient strength to support the weight of the roll proper.
Another modified form of the invention is disclosed in Figures 4 to 7 inclusive. In this modication a burlap sheet E has one edge folded at M to provide a retroverted portion N which may be stitched to the main body of the sheet at G'. This sheet may be so folded previous to or after it has been treated with a saturant. In order to provide free overlapping edges, there may be interposed between the main body of the sheet E' and the retroverted end N any suitable non-adhesive material L, typified herein by a thin sheet of paper or similar material. This paper sheet may be adhered or otherwise secured with one face in contact with the bottom side of the burlap sheet E. The exposed or undersurface of the paper sheet is non-adhesive. Accordingly when the end ofthe burlap sheet is retroverted and stitched withv the base portion of the sheet at G the contacting surfaces of the paper sheet will be non-adhesive. Thereafter, the edge portion O may be cut away as indicated on the line P in order to render the non-adhesive edges free for overlapping. 'I'he retroverted portion N may be perforated or otherwise weakened at K' directly over the weakened portion K in the saturated felt sheet A to partially sever a marginal strip Q therefrom. During shipment the strip Q may be left in place to serve as a packing or filling strip to protect the overlapping edge and when the roofing is ready to be applied on the job the applicator may remove the packing or filling strip Q, said strip being readily removable by reason of its weakened adherence to the roofing sheet. y
Two similarly constructed roofing sheets are preferably overlapped as illustrated in Figure 7 with a plain edge R on one sheet overlapped by the lapping edge constructed as above described. The overlapped edges are secured by any suitable nailing means S, andthen a filling material T of bituminous cement or the like isl applied over the nails and the joint seam beneath the lapU which is thereafter secured in place by the cement. In this construction it will be readily apparent that in the overlapping edge the nails are entirely concealed and protected by the lap and the lapping edge securely covers the nails and seals the seam between the adjacent edges of the roong sheet. It will also be n'oted that the weather exposed surface of each roofing sheet consists of a smooth, continuous sheet of asphalt impregnated, coated and mineral surfaced fabric, without fold or seam at the lap.
While we have illustrated and described different embodiments ofthe invention it will be understood that there may be various changes in details of construction without departing from the spirit of same.
