<br /> lock together in a row placed directly under the screws that attach the
<br /> ridge cap,and form a solid,water-tight,air-tight barrier. (see Figure 8

<br /> wide, and forms a water-retardant, insect resistant barrier that allows , �Y

<br /> hot air to escape from the attic. It is superior to many more elaborate _
<br /> and expensive venting systems. �

<br /> tape that seals the hip roof. It is 6 inches wide and comes in 331/a foot �;
<br /> rolls. Because it must conform to the rise and fall of panel ridges, "'� �'
