The present disclosure provides a variety of approaches to facilitate the remote fitting of clothing items.

Ridge vents and deck covers are disclosed that have a fibrous mesh mat and a moisture barrier. The mesh mat may be contoured to define a variety of structures and may have regions of relatively higher fiber density and regions of relatively lower fiber density. Solar cells may be exposed on the ridge vents to collect solar energy when the vents are exposed to sunlight.

A product allowing for the partitioned and directional flow of gases and fluids is disclosed herein. The product generally comprises six faces or edges having grooves, channels, and/or passageways on a face or defined with the product that allow gases or fluids to pass along and/or through the product unobstructed. Incorporated into and along two long edges of the product are a plurality of fins meant to aid in the installation of the product into a rafter bay.

A hollow brick includes a bottom wall, two side walls, two intermediate walls, and a top wall. The top wall defines three arched top boundary surfaces of three ventilation holes bounded by the bottom wall, the side walls, the intermediate walls and the top wall. Two supports, each of which supports a first corrugated plate, project from the side walls. Two inner holding ribs are in two ventilation holes respectively proximal to the side walls and lie below the arched top boundary surfaces. A middle one of the arched top boundary surfaces abuts and presses a curved middle portion of a second corrugated plate, and the inner holding ribs respectively lift lateral portions of the second corrugated plate.

A roof ridge and hip ridge vent system for contoured roofs which include a vent slot located through the roof structure. A contoured roofing material forms the roof surface. Vent strips are provided on the roof surface that extend on each side of the vent slot. The vent strip is comprised of synthetic fibers that are randomly aligned into an open web by an air flow and then joined by a phenolic or latex binder to form an air permeable mesh material having a generally uniform thickness, a density of about 0.08 to 0.1 grams per cubic centimeter (1.3 to 1.6 grams per cubic inch), and a crush recovery of at least 80%. A first longitudinally extending groove extends from the bottom surface about 40% to 60% of a height of the vent strip and is located a distance of at least about 1 inch from a downslope side.

A roof system includes a roof deck and a plurality of roof rafters supporting the roof deck. A thermal break is located between the deck and a first rafter of the plurality of rafters. The thermal break includes a break inner member contacting a first rafter exterior surface of the first rafter and a break outer member contacting a deck inner surface of the roof deck. The break inner member and the break outer member bound a thermal air break therebetween.

An insulation panel is described that is adapted to be installed between framing members of a building, such as a stud, joist, or rafter. The insulation panel can be installed without the use of fasteners or adhesive. The panel is made of a rigid insulation material such as expanded polystyrene. Grooves are provided along a length of the panel to allow for compression and accommodation of variations in the spacing between framing members.

A hollow brick includes a bottom wall, two side walls, two intermediate walls, and a top wall. The top wall defines three arched top boundary surfaces of three ventilation holes bounded by the bottom wall, the side walls, the intermediate walls and the top wall. Two supports, each of which supports a first corrugated plate, project from the side walls. Two inner holding ribs are in two ventilation holes respectively proximal to the side walls and lie below the arched top boundary surfaces. A middle one of the arched top boundary surfaces abuts and presses a curved middle portion of a second corrugated plate, and the inner holding ribs respectively lift lateral portions of the second corrugated plate.

It is described herein a roofing insulation structure. The roofing insulation structure may comprise a first exterior surface and a second exterior surface opposite the first exterior surface. The first exterior surface may comprise a channeled profile having a plurality of channels. Each channel of the plurality of channels may have a depth of at least 1 mm, a width of at least 0.15 mm, and a ratio of depth to width in a range of between 1.01:1 and 7:1. It is also described herein a roofing insulation system comprising a plurality of the roofing insulation structures. It is also disclosed herein a method of manufacturing the roofing insulation structures. It is also disclosed herein a method of installing the roofing insulation system.

A roof vent and a roof structure are described. A roof vent can include a baffle with a cross-section where a first portion extends upward from a bottom plate and a second portion extends from the first portion to define a space between the bottom plate and the second portion. A roof structure may or may not have a roof deck, and comprises a plurality of roof cover elements with a radiant barrier layer underneath the top surfaces of at least some of the roof cover elements. In another embodiment, a roof structure may comprise more sheathing layer vent members than roof cover layer vent members. In yet another embodiment, a roof structure may comprise a layer of roof tiles with at least one vent member, the vent member comprising lateral end portions of a base member with a non-planar profile to engage a similar profile of an adjacent roof cover element.
