Abstract: A ridge cap includes a lower surface adapted to be placed in contact with a roof of a building, a weather protective upper surface, and first and second side sections connected to each other. The first side section is disposed at one side of a longitudinal axis and the second side section is disposed at the other side of the longitudinal axis. The ridge cap further includes an elastomeric strip and a metal strip. The elastomeric strip extends along the longitudinal axis and connects the first side section and the second side section to be of unitary construction with the first and second side sections. The metal strip backing extends along the longitudinal axis and supports the elastomeric strip.

Abstract: A method of making a rounded ridge cap includes providing an intermediate product comprising a plurality of sections arranged side by side and integrated as a single body of an asphaltic foam material, each of the plurality of sections comprising a rounded top surface, the plurality of sections comprising first and second sections immediately neighboring each other. The first section comprises a first side and the second section comprises a second side integrated with the first side to form a bridge portion between the first and second sections. The method further includes bending the first section with respect to the second section about the bridge portion, thereby forming a rounded ridge cap comprising a rounded exterior surface. The rounded top surfaces of the first and second sections form together the rounded exterior surface of the rounded ridge cap.

Abstract: An asphaltic isocyanurate foam useful in roofing applications. Asphalt is liquified and mixed with a mixture of polyisocyanate. In a separate mixture, other chemicals, such as polyols, surfactant, catalyst, and blowing agent are combined. The mixtures are combined and reacted to form an asphaltic polyurethane foam.
