Abstract

A decorative shingle has a first element including a reinforcing web, a first asphaltic binder, and a first adherent surfacing material. A second element including discontinuous sections is overlaid on the first element. The second element includes a layer of a second asphaltic binder and a second adherent surfacing material to provide a decorative effect. The second asphaltic binder has greater elongation at low temperature than the first asphaltic binder, providing greater resistance to environmental stresses.
