A generic name for various types of roofing boards including *noji-ita –ì’n”Â, sheathing on which shingles are laid *kokera-ita Š`”Â, thin shingles, 3mm thick, 20-40cm long and an about 9cm width. Tokusa-ita –Ø‘¯” are shingles that are thicker than kokera-ita, from 4.5-6mm, length from 33-36cm, width is 10.2-10.5cm but thinner than tochi-ita žz”Â, thickness is 0.9-3cm, length is within 60cm long and from 9-15cm wide. When large boards are used, they are called oo-ita ‘å”Â. The shingles are usually made of cedar sugi ™, but when needing a better quality, sawara ž¹ (cedar) is used. It is similar to hinoki žw (Japanese cypress) but has no fragrance. Hiba žw—t (white cedar), is also preferred but hinoki is considered the best quality wood.
