The attractiveness of a modern
bungalow and the spaciousness of
a two-storey dwelling have been
combined in the design of this
three-bedroom split level house by
architect R. Whiteley of Don Mills.
Constructed of frame and brick
veneer, the house offers excellent
separation of the living and sleep-
ing areas. The study on the ground
floor has' a clothes closet and could
serve as a fourth bedroom if de-
sired. The living room provides
plenty of unbroken wall areas, per-
mitting various possibilities for
furniture arrangement. The base-
ment, which extends below the bed
rooms, contains the laundry, stor-
age and furnace rooms, as well as
a recreation room.
The total floor area is 1,362
square feet and the exterior dimen-
sions are 38 feetby 35 feet. Work-
ing drawings foil this house, De=
sign 763, may be obtained from
Central Mortgage and Housing
Corporation.

KEEPING OUT THE RAIN—Shingles., are the traditional roofing material for sloping
roofs. Asphalt shingles are more easily applied in warm we ather. In colder weather
they tend to be brittle and crack. Some builders. both nail and glue down the shingles to
prevent them lifting in high -winds. • .
ADVENTURE IN BUILDING
Ty p e of Finished Roofing
Determined by Roof Slope
This is the 20th in a series
of artieles by Central Mortgage
and Housing Corporation, Fed-
eral housing agency, on build-•
ing a house.
When the last roof rafter has
been nailed in place the sheathing
can be applied and work inside the
shell may then proceed regardless
of the weather.
Roof sheathing 4s either boards
three,quarters•inches thick or ply-
wood panels. Generally, sheathing
boards should not be more than
six inches wide. Wide boards are
not recommended for sheathing
purposes as they have a tendency
to curl at the edges„ although cer-
tain lumber species do not display
this characteristic.
Plywood used for roof sheathing
can be of varying thickness, de-
pending on, the spacing of the sup-
porting rafters. When plywood roof
sheathing is installed a slight gap
should be left between panel edges
to allow for expansion under ex-
cessive moisture conditions. Oth-
erwise the panels may buckle and
warp.
Conventional roofing materials
are shingles for a sloping roof and
built-up tar or asphalt roofing for
flat, or nearly flat, roofs. A roof
is considered flat if the slope does
7 not exceed three inches in every
foot. Roofs falling between these
two categories are called flat -pitch
roofs. On pitch roofs either cedar
shingles or composition shingles
may be usbd. Cedar Shingles are
more popular on the west coast
and are often employed where a
rustic effect is called for.
Composition shingles are either
asphalt felt or asbestos fibre with
Portland Cement. Asphalt shingles
should Weigh not - less than 210
pounds for every 100 square feet
of roof surface covered, while as-
bestos cement shingles covering an
area of the same size should have
a mininiulif weight of 250 pounds.
Asphalt shingles in three-foot
Strips can be applied to some types
of flat -pitch roofs, provided certain
precautions are taken. The roof
must first be covered with a layer
of building paper. In order to pre-
vent water from melting ice back-
ing up along the lower edge of the
roof a wider starter strip of heavy
roll roofing material is applied at
this point. Shingles must be glued
as well as nailed, to keep them
from blowing away in heavy winds.
The lower the slope of the roof,
the greater this danger becomes.
Shingles should be lapped• with.
not more than five inches exposed.
Special care must be exercised if
they are being put on in cold wea-
ther. A sheet metal drip edge...is
also recommended for shingled
roofs;
A flat roof requires built-up roof-
ing. Provided it, is not damaged,
this roofing may last for the life
of the house, far beyond the com-
monly provided bond guarantee
period of from 10 to 20 years.
Built-up roofing for a flat roof
consists of layers of felt paper with
lapped joints mopped over with
hot tar or asphalt. When the roof
is ready for its final coating a
quantity of fine gravel, not sand,
is mixed with the tar. The mixture
is then spread uniformly across the
surface and allowed to harden.
When Applied strictly according to
specifications a guarantee bond is
not necessary with a 20 -year type
roof if the house is financed under
the National Housing Act.
