The non-continuous members include one or more gaps to allow air to pass there through. The ridge cap assembly can optionally include a non-continuous member with one or more folds so as to define two or more parallel walls which can provide enhanced rigidity and/or wind resistance. Optionally, the roof cap assembly can include lower mounting portions for mating with upper surface of a roof structure.
