Often semi-circular at the lower edge, the geometric shape of the waterproof tile, which has been hardened by firing, is reminiscent of a beaver&#8217;s tail. Traditionally, the plain tile comes in numerous variations and cuts, e.g. with a segmental arch, curved or tapering. On the upper part is the tile nose, an upstand with which the tile is hooked onto the lath substructure.<\/p>\n<p>It can be proven that the oldest building element made of fired clay for roofing, the plain tile, was already used in the early Middle Ages and is considered the German &#8220;roof tile&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Historic preservation authorities prefer and require plain tiles to maintain a historically correct overall impression during renovations. The simple tile can easily be used for small polygonal turrets, dormers or branched roof angles.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][\/vc_section]\n<\/div>","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-9735","glossar","type-glossar","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/baier-gmbh.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/glossar\/9735","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/baier-gmbh.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/glossar"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/baier-gmbh.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/glossar"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/baier-gmbh.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9735"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
