A flashing for weather proof sealing of the transition between a roof covering and a constructional element rising from a roof surface, such as a curb of a skylight, comprises an elongated flashing profile strip with a first profile portion for abutment against the constructional element and a second profile portion for extending along the roof surface. The first profile portion has a defined width transverse to a longitudinal direction of the profile strip, and the first profile portion compris...

Flashing for rendering a seam in a structure water-tight, wherein the flashing comprises a composite comprising a sheet layer and a foam layer, with the sheet layer comprising a closed surface, waterproof material which is lightweight and flexible, and the foam layer comprising a thermally-insulating material which is lightweight and flexible, and resilient and water-resistant.

Flashing comprising a sheet bent into a general "V" shape for disposition on a shingle and against the side to be flashed, said sheet having a cut-back and bent under lip portion at one end thereof for insertion under the top edge of the shingle, the lip portion forming a connection with the shingle without the use of fasteners.

A flashing for sealing about the area of a structural member passing through a partition. A plurality of flashing elements, each having a base portion and an upstanding portion, are used in forming the flashing. The edges of both portions of the flashing elements have sealing flanges formed thereon. These sealing flanges cooperate when the elements are assembled to seal the area about the structural member. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In constructing many building structures, it is sometimes nec...

A moisture management system for use in construction of buildings, particularly for partially covering the framework of a rough opening in a structure. The system has a body having a plurality of pathways to facilitate fluid between the system and any fixture installed adjacent to the system. The pathways allow fluid, especially water, to flow away from the installation surfaces and down along the exterior of the building.

This invention relates to a pair of flashing spectacles and in particular to one including a pair of spectacles, and an electrical device which has an external resistor for controlling frequency of the square waves generated by the oscillator, an on/off latch having an input connected with one and of a reset switch and an output connected with the oscillator and a counter, a decoder controller connected to output of the counter, an open drain driver connected with the decoder controller, a plura...

A counter flashing system is provided for protecting a termination end of a roofing material and providing an asthetic cover. An anchor has a first end attached to a wall and a second end defining a mounting slot for receiving a counter flashing. A mounting end of the counter flashing is inserted into the slot and fastened. The slot and the mounting end of the counter flashing both include a plurality of teeth which engage each other to prohibit movement of the counter flashing. A free end of th...

A roof flashing and method of making same in which both the collar and base member of the flashing are made of elastomeric material. The base member is molded first and has an opening therein surrounded by a stepped flange provided with a series of circumferential slots therein. The collar is molded onto the base member during a subsequent molding operation in which the material of the collar is injected through the slots and completely around the top, bottom and inner side edge of the flange to...

A flashing system including a fiber reinforced silicone sheet having substantial vapor permeability and water resistance is pre-assembled with a pair of ductile non-corrodable strips embedded in edges of the sheet. The system also includes the use of headed self-drilling fasteners to facilitate installation in metal buildings and to create a seal at the point of fastening.

A flashing dart has a hollow barrel, a point assembly, a transparent shaft, a circuit board, a battery and a resilient element. The barrel has a front end and a rear end and is made of conductive material. The point assembly is attached to the front end of the barrel. The transparent flight shaft is attached to the rear end of the barrel. The circuit board has an integrated circuit controller and is firmly mounted inside the barrel. The battery has two electrodes connected respectively to the ba...
