You must be diagnosed with parathyroid disease (hyperparathyroidism) if your parathyroid hormone level is high and your calcium level is also high. The excess parathyroid hormone is the CAUSE of the high calcium. The high calcium is caused by a parathyroid tumor--nothing else will cause this.
The ridge of a sloped roof system is the horizontal top area where two sloped roof areas meet. The National Roofing Contractors Association defines ridge as Highest point on a roof, represented by a horizontal line where two roof areas intersect, running the length of the area.. The ridge area on sloped roof systems should be capped to ensure a watertight roof system as well as aesthetic appeal.
The route taken by the weight of the roof through the framing members to the soil is called the âload path.â. The purpose of the ridge is to provide an easy method for connecting rafters at the peak of the roof, and to provide better nailing at the peak. Older homes may have no ridge at all.
