ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a composition ridge or hip covering which creates an appearance similar to that of a wood shake or slate roof. The covering may be easily installed, requires no trimming or folding during installation and may be manufactured with no significant waste of starting material. The covering is accomplished by forming an unfolded sheet of roofing material into a fish-like shape having three distinct portions: a front portion, a body (middle) portion and an end portion. Each portion is tapered and each portion has a specially defined length and taper angle depending upon the shape of the shingle desired. Two thickened multilayers are formed in the body portion by folding the unfolded sheet, one being at the wide end edge of the shingle and the other in the main part of the body portion. The taper angles and lengths of the front portion and end portion are essentially the same.
