A prefabricated flashing product for an opening in an exterior surface of a structure includes a generally planar flange shaped to conform to the exterior surface, the flange extending outwardly from an entire perimeter of an aperture therein that corresponds to the opening, and a return that seals to the flange about the aperture and extends substantially perpendicularly therefrom toward an inward direction of the opening. The flange and the return are monolithically formed of a waterproof material. A method of integrating a fenestration product into an opening of an exterior surface of a structure includes inserting the flashing product described above into the opening, and inserting the fenestration product at least partially into the aperture of the flashing product.

A multi-layered integrated roofing plank or panel with a base layer comprising engineered or manufactured wood, a water resistant barrier layer covering at least the outer face of the base layer and at least one of the edges of the base layer, and a driplap edge along the bottom edge of the base layer. A texturizing material also may be affixed to, or integrated with, the water resistant barrier layer.

A drip edge having a flange configured to rest against a roof surface following installation on a perimeter of the roof surface and a flap hingedly extending from a terminal edge of the flange configured to be positioned a predefined distance towards the center of the roof surface, as measured from an edge of the roof surface on which the flange is configured to be mounted, following installation of the flange on the roof surface, wherein the flap and flange, in combination, form a cavity configured to retain a shingle therein, thereby improving the strength with which the starter shingle is secured to the roof surface against wind uplift while improving its resilience to moisture intrusion and easing installation while also rendering shingle alignment more consistent.

A profile for terraces and balconies includes a substantially flat wing for anchoring the profile to the floor of the terraces, a front portion for protection of the external edge of the flooring which protrudes outward with respect thereto, and a first drip lip constituted by a contoured element which extends downward. The first drip lip has, at the lower end, at least one first protrusion and at least one second protrusion, lower than the first, both protruding downward and outward with respect to the front portion. The profile also includes a second drip lip, which is substantially parallel to the first drip lip, extends downward from the wing and includes a third protrusion which protrudes downward and toward the first drip lip.

Some embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a roofing system. In some embodiments, the roofing system comprises at least one steep slope roof substrate having a first region. In some embodiments, the first region comprises a plurality of shingles. In some embodiments, each of the plurality of shingles comprises at least one antimicrobial agent. In some embodiments, the at least one steep slope roof substrate also comprises a second region. In some embodiments, the second region comprises an antimicrobial scavenger layer that is configured to receive runoff from the first region of the steep slope roof substrate. In some embodiments, the runoff comprises an initial concentration of at least one antimicrobial agent and water. In some embodiments, the antimicrobial scavenger layer is configured to capture the at least one antimicrobial agent so as to reduce the initial concentration of the at least one antimicrobial agent in the runoff.

The roof ice and water shield includes a bottom layer of asphalt material configured to lay against a roof surface following installation on a perimeter of the roof surface, the bottom layer having a terminal lower section configured to be adjacent a roof edge at the perimeter of the roof surface following installation, and the bottom layer having a terminal upper section opposite the terminal lower section. A top layer of asphalt material extends from the terminal lower section of the bottom layer in a direction towards the terminal upper section of the bottom layer, an upper section of the top layer is configured to create a watertight seal with the terminal upper section of the bottom layer, and a lower section of the top layer defines a flap configured to overlap the terminal lower section of the bottom layer during installation. A sealable drip edge pocket is between the flap and the bottom layer and configured to sealably envelop a top portion of a drip edge following installation.

A recording head has a near-field transducer that extends a first distance away from a media-facing surface. Two subwavelength focusing mirrors are at an end of a waveguide proximate the media-facing surface and extend a second distance away from the media-facing surface that is less than the first distance. The subwavelength mirrors are on opposite crosstrack sides of the near-field transducer and separated from each other by a crosstrack gap. The subwavelength focusing mirrors each include a first material at the media-facing surface and a plasmonic material that covers an edge of the subwavelength focusing mirror that faces the near-field transducer. The first material is more mechanically robust than the plasmonic material.

A recording head has a near-field transducer proximate a media-facing surface of the recording head. The near-field transducer extends a first distance away from the media-facing surface. A waveguide overlaps and delivers light to the near-field transducer. Two subwavelength focusing mirrors are at an end of the waveguide proximate the media-facing surface. The subwavelength mirrors are on opposite crosstrack sides of the near-field transducer and separated from each other by a crosstrack gap. The subwavelength focusing mirrors each include a first material at the media-facing surface and a liner that covers an edge of the mirror.
