Not prac:cal to aSach cladding through thick insula:on layers Building Codes have moved to con:nuous insula:on in many cases over North America There are many op:ons to structurally support cladding with thick layers of exterior insula:on. There are issues with many of them. Roxul Energy Design Centre Event – August 30, 2012 Thermal bridging (eg. Z-‐furring) Costly Proprietary Systems Custom solu:ons Minimum number of holes in control layers of Perfect Wall Roxul Energy Design Centre Event – August 30, 2012 Cladding ASachment Furring Strips (strapping) Furring strips can be aSached through the insula:on to the structure of the building which provides a loca:on to aSach the strapping normally. Not only does this provide cladding aSachment but also has the benefit of producing a ¾” cavity that provides a capillary break, drainage, and ven:la:on drying Our experience in low rise residen:al is that these furring strips do not need to be pressure treated.

The general concern with all of them is that they are all rela:vely so`. We started gejng ques:ons from product manufacturers and designers about the risk of cladding creep. What will happen? We s:ll get ques:ons about this to this day. “As you may recall we will have 1” of insula:on board beneath the stucco. (CA building code will require 2” in 2014). When this first came up a couple of years ago every stucco contractor expressed concern about the stucco falling off the studs due to weight and the length of the nails, this defines the so called “nailing problem”.” Roxul Energy Design Centre Event – August 30, 2012 Smegal Roxul Energy Design Centre Event – August 30, 2012 © buildingscience.com 5 of 16 Roxul Building Science Consulting Day Cladding Attachment–Laboratory Research and Design August 30, 2012 Discrete Load Components Cladding aSachments Discrete Load Components Insula:ng on exterior is not a structural challenge … unless you use the wrong model Bending does maSer, but only at high deflec:ons Roxul Energy Design Centre Event – August 30, 2012 Roxul Energy Design Centre Event – August 30, 2012 Previous Research Foam sheathing field tes:ng Started thinking about this in 2008 At this :me there was no informa:on available on the movement of cladding or strapping fastened through exterior insula:on Roxul Energy Design Centre Event – August 30, 2012 Smegal Roxul Energy Design Centre Event – August 30, 2012 © buildingscience.com 6 of 16 Roxul Building Science Consulting Day Cladding Attachment–Laboratory Research and Design August 30, 2012 Direct ASachment Through Insula:on Direct ASachment Through Insula:on 2010 “Does the insula:on provide any addi:onal capacity for the system?” BSC staff test System loaded with 4” of rigid mineral fiber insula:on between furring and wall Roxul Energy Design Centre Event – August 30, 2012 Roxul Energy Design Centre Event – August 30, 2012 BSC Laboratory Research Direct ASachment Through Insula:on Develop a method to determine the predicted deflec:on under various cladding weights on wood framed wall assemblies.
