Le bitume est un terme générique décrivant les mélanges naturels de carbures d'hydrogène se présentant sous une forme visqueuse ou solide; dans l'industrie de la toiture le mot bitume signifie soit de l'asphalte soit du brai de goudron. À l'état solide ces matériaux se ressemblent mais leurs caractéristiques sont quelque peu différentes. La plupart de l'asphalte employé au Canada pour imprégner ou imperméabiliser les matériaux de couverture ou les toitures en terrasse provient de la distillation du pétrole suivie d'un certain raffinage lequel permet d'obtenir les propriétés que l'on désire. On trouve également des dépôts solides d'asphalte à l'état naturel dans certaines parties du monde. On obtient le brai de goudron en distillant des goudrons grossiers provenant de la carbonisation de la houille. La propriété qu'a le brai de goudron de couler à froid facilite le bouchage automatique des fissures mais elle empêche qu'on l'utilise sur des toits trop en pente. Sur les toits à faible pente on peut employer des asphaltes dont le point de fusion n'est pas élevé tandis que sur les toits à pente raide on peut employer des asphaltes dont le point de fusion est élevé. C'est pourquoi l'asphalte a davantage d'applications que le brai de goudron. 2, record 1, French, - brai%20%C3%A0%20couverture

Roofing bitumen is the primary adhesion/waterproofing agent used between roofing plies. Bitumen arrives at the job site in solid form, but is heated and applied as a liquid. Roofing bitumens may be either a product of petroleum refining(asphalts) or a product of the coal-coking process(coal tar pitch). 2, record 2, English, - roofing%20bitumen

Le bitume chaud est un adhésif courant. Il a traditionnellement été utilisé pour liaisonner les épaisseurs de feutres des membranes multicouches, pour agir comme hydrofuge dans la membrane et pour liaisonner la membrane et les autres éléments de couverture. Il existe aussi des bitumes conçus pour être appliqués à froid. Ceux-ci peuvent être liquéfiés avec du solvant ou par émulsification dans de l'eau. Des bitumes modifiés à l'aide de polymères sont aussi employés pour le liaisonnement et l'imperméabilisation. 2, record 2, French, - bitume%20de%20couverture
