Abstract
A reinforced water-resistant board includes a cover board with a reinforced water-resistant membrane applied to a surface of the cover board. The reinforced water-resistant membrane includes a primer layer, a reinforced membrane, a traffic coat, and a sealing layer. The primer layer is applied over the surface of the cover board. The reinforced membrane includes fleece soaked in a liquid resin and is applied over the primer layer. The traffic coat is boned to the reinforced member. The sealing layer is applied over the traffic coat.

A method of installing a water-resistant system, the method comprising:
- securing a first water-resistant board having a first edge to a support structure, the first board having an outside surface including a central region and a first recess defined between the central region of the first board and the first edge;
- securing a second board to the support structure with a second edge of the second board adjacent the first edge of the first board to form a first joint between the first and second edges of the first and second boards, the second board having an outside surface including a central region and a second recess defined between the central region of the second board and the second edge;
- and
- applying a sealing strip over the first joint to seal the first joint with the sealing strip forming a seamless joint between the central regions of the first and second boards.
A method of installing a water-resistant system, the method comprising:
- securing a first water-resistant board having a first edge to a support structure;
- securing a second water-resistant board to the support structure with a second edge of the second board adjacent the first edge of the first board to form a first joint between the first and second edges of the first and second boards;
- and
- applying a sealing strip over the first joint to seal the first joint.
A method of manufacturing a water-resistant board, the method comprising:
- creating a first recess extending from a first edge of a substrate towards a central region of the substrate, the substrate comprising:
- an inside surface;
- and
- an outside surface opposite the inside surface, the outside surface having the first edge, a second edge, a third edge, and a fourth edge, the first and second edges intersecting at a first corner, the second and third edges intersecting at a second corner, the third and fourth edges intersecting at a third corner, the outside surface having a central region positioned between the first, second, third, and fourth edges;
- creating a second recess extending from the second edge of the substrate towards the central region of the substrate;
- and
- applying a traffic coat to the outer surface to form an outer-most surface of a portion of the central region.
