ABSTRACT:
In this ridge or hip covering, flexible sealing strips (9) are arranged between the covering caps (7) fastened to the ridge or hip board (6) of the roof structure and the roofing tiles (3).
In order that the sealing strips (9) can universally be used with the most different roofing tiles and roof pitches, they comprise a flexible supporting strip (10) which is provided on one or both longitudinal edges (11) with a comblike edge part (12) of elastically deformable material, the teeth (12a) of which are connected with an edge strip (13) of flexible material which bridges the tooth spaces allowing the teeth to spread, whereby the outer longitudinal edge (14) of the edge strip adapts to the contour of the upper side of the roofing tiles (3) lying below it.
If with the sealing strips (9) both a sealing against rain and driving snow and a ventilation of the roof space is to be made possible, an air-permeable bonded fabric, in particular of polyester or polyamide fibres, can be used for the edge strip (13). A ventilation is also made possible if the supporting strip (10) has in its part, which is situated at the side of the ridge or hip board (6), ventilation apertures and is provided with upright supports for the covering caps (7).
