Asphalt Roofing Shingles BIRD 021911 Fiber Glass and Asphalt Roofing Shingles... quality products built to last KlR/KtflKilffflCTliBER BIRD & SOM, inc. is a leading manufac turer of quality building materials. Since 1795 Bird & Son has grown from a small papermaking business to a significant supplier of fiber glass-based and organic felt roofing shingles, solid vinyl sidings, plastic ornamental shutters, and other accessories Bird's broad network of roofing mills, fi ber glass mat and granule plants, together with a vinyl manufacturing facility insures a highly reliable consistency of product and an effective distribution of that product throughout all areas of the country Recently, Bird expanded its plastic prod ucts' manufacturing plant located in Bardstown, Kentucky This multi-million dollar addition was necessary to help meet the steadily rising customer demand for quality vinyl sidings and related vinyl accessories. A new, high technology computer center was installed to efficiently control the delicate process of fractional weight determination and compounding. The 1978 introduction of the Bird Glass BiltTM fiber glass shingle in separate styles added still another dimension to the prod uct line. The capacity for producing fiber glass shingles in various designs is ex pected to be rapidly increasing throughout the decade in view of the greater need for fiber glass-based products, precipitated in part bythe uncertainty ofa stable petroleum situation. Looking to the future, Bird & Son believes its product selection will uphold established high standards of workmanship and afford protection, style and a color selection to en hance the beauty of any home. A continuing involvement... HISTORICAL PRESERVATION As a company actively doing business since the presidency of George Washington, Bird & Son has enjoyed a deep sense of pride in knowing ithas helped nurture the expansion ofAmerica.Today while new construction techniques, alternative building materials, and a faster pace of living have changed society there still exists, and with increasing regu larity a need for a vital link with the past The preservation of historical landmarks has always been important to Bird & Son. Throughout the 1970's the Companywas actively engaged in a matching historical grant program, a plan for the revitalization of "Main Streets, USA", and the funding of documentaiy films. The City of Boston, a mere 20 miles from Corporate Headquarters, recently celebrated its 350th anniversary The excitement and interest generated touched off a rejuvenated feeling of roots, and the desire to preserve the structures of earlier generations. But historic preservation is more than just a reunion with the past ft creates a spirit of cooperation helping to unify all American business to ward a common goal. Bird & Son hopes more companies will become involved in this productive effort 2 I 1 4 BIRD 021912 DT'DOCUMENT This catalog provides the professional builder and architect with technical infor mation on the diversification and regional availability ofthe Bird & Son fiber glass and asphalt roofing product line.

A thick layer of rock granules is then applied to shield the shingle from the sun's harsh ultra violet rays. Finally, Bird G Son adds the tight sealing bond of the Bird Wind Seal Feature. Spots of thermoplastic adhesive are evenly spaced along each shingle's surface. Set into action bythe heat ofthe sun, they create a grip with the shingle course below that resists harmful winds. To earn the U/L wind resistant label, Bird shingles were subjected to 60 mph test winds for a sustained period. But to fully illustrate the strength of the Wind Seal, Bird took the test a few steps further as shown here. At 60 mph shingles on therightsideof the roof, those withoutthe Bird Wind Seal feature, begin to liftand flap from the simulated storm conditions. Some shingles are even blown away An anemometeron the roofrecords the actualwind velocity Now at 90 mph--over hurricane force--shin gles on the right flap freely loosen and blow off. Water is now able to penetrate the roof structure causing severe damage. But the Bird shingles (left side of the roof) have remained in place throughout the entire ordeal--a proof of perfor mance. Evenly spaced thermoplastic adhesive dots, the Bird Wind Seal feature, are set into gripping action by the heat of the sun. Shingles are then bonded--oneto another--to provide a line ofde fense against severe storms at any time of yeat The results of this simulated storm test proved conclusively that Bird roofing shingles areable to withstand the fury of adverse conditions while providing lasting durability and good looks... qualities home and building owners can truly appreciate. Byspecifying Bird fiberglass orasphalt roofi ng shingles, architects and builders can be certain of established high standards unmatched in industry today 6 BIRD 021916 Class "A" Burning Brand Test Highest resistance classification. Ef fective protection against external fire due to flame retarding qualities. Underwriters Laboratories Listed... To obtain a U/L Class "A" listing for fire resistance. Bird fiber glass shingles were subjected to separate fire tests conducted by Underwriters Laboratories. During and after each test, the decks were examined for the appearance of flame on the underside, the measure ment of the spread of flame, production of flaming and glowing brands, displacement of the test sample, and exposure of portions of the roof deck. Wind Seal Feature Spots of thermoplas tic adhesive, evenly spaced, bond theshingles tightly to each other. Fiber Glass Mat Its inorganic fiber glass base is more dimensionally stable than organic felt and more fire resistant Ceramic Granules A uniform layerof rock granules is added to shield the shingle from its worst enemy--the sun.
