INTRODUCTION
This type of small-element roofing is used mainly in cold, damp climates:
Northern Europe (Norway, Sweden, Finland, Poland, etc.);
mountain climate, particularly in France (Jura, Alps);
in North America, mainly Canada and the northern states of the United States.
In France, it's starting to appear in new regions like the Centre, the Ardennes and other places that are returning to natural materials.
