DEFINITIONS:

Standard Thickness: Defined as 1/4" slate of nominal thickness, +/- 1/16". Shingles are hand-picked to be of uniform thickness with no more than 1/8" variation in surface face dimensions. Surface texture will be smooth with no knots and knurls.

Textural Slate: Defined as 3/16" to 3/8", or 3/8" to 1/2", or 1/2" to 3/4", or 3/4" to 1+" of nominal thickness. Thickness variations should be anticipated. Compared to standard roofs, the textural roof is likely to have more character due to pronounced shadow line.

Intermingled Rough Texture: Defined as a roof with a least three distinct variations in slate thickness; for example, slate of 1/4"–3/8", 3/8"–1/2", 1/2"–3/4" thickness used in one roof. The most pronounced texture is achieved by using a greater percentage of the thinnest material and a lesser percentage of the thickest material.

Graduated: Define as a roof in which the slate diminishes in length and/or thickness as it progresses from eave to ridge.

Staggered Butt: The use of two or more lengths intermingled in each course for the most unique and old world slate application.

All of our roofing products conform to ASTM C406-00, Grade S1.
