A Class A fire rating on roofing shingles indicates that the material has the highest level of fire resistance, meaning it can withstand severe fire exposure. These shingles are tested to resist flames and prevent the spread of fire, making them suitable for areas prone to wildfires or other fire hazards. Class A-rated shingles are typically made from non-combustible materials or treated to resist ignition. This rating helps homeowners and builders choose safer roofing options that comply with building codes and insurance requirements.

Is class 1 fire rating the same as 1 hour fire resistance?
In short, No - in the UK "Class 1" is a form of performance that indicates how easily something burns ('Class 4" being the worst). Fire resistance on the other hand is a term that relates to a construction's ability to resist the passage of fire (e.g. a wall, floor, door etc). The fact that a material is "Class 1" doesn't necessarily have any bearing on its fire resistance performance. For example, PVC cladding can be obtained to a 'Class 1' rating, but it wouldn't contribute much to the wall's fire resistance performance at all.
What is the most natrally rot resistant wood in the world?
Yakal and Narra from the Philippines! A note to anyone: according to Wikipedia, these trees do exist, but Yakal is critically endangered and has literally next to nothing for info on it (Wikipedia says that it is a plant in the Dipterocarpaceae family, and that it is endemic to the Philippines, AND THAT IS IT)! And Narra is a vulnerably endangered species, Wikipedia has information on it, but they don't say anything about its lumber. Ipe is very rot resistant and is a member of the Ironwood family. I believe that it has a Class A fire rating similar to steel and concrete. It will last outside unfinished and untreated for 30 to 35 years. I recommend Wallaba for fire resistance, especially in roofing applications. Red Diamond Wallaba Shingles have a Class A Fire Rating and have a 50+ year life expectancy without any chemical treatments.
