(canceled)
A moisture barrier system adapted to be installed on a building having an interior wall and an exterior wall spaced apart from the interior wall to define a cavity there between, the moisture barrier system comprising:
- a first barrier sheet including an interior reinforcement mesh and an outer polymeric layer,
- a second barrier sheet at least partially overlapping the first barrier sheet,
- wherein the second barrier sheet is configured to extend around a corner of the building and is formed to include at least one fold.
A moisture barrier system adapted to be installed on a building having an interior wall and an exterior wall spaced apart from the interior wall to define a cavity there between, the moisture barrier system comprising:
- a barrier sheet including an interior reinforcement mesh and an outer polymeric layer and configured to span the cavity, and
- a joint support extending between and interconnecting the interior wall and the exterior wall and arranged to lie beneath the barrier sheet and configured to support the barrier sheet, the joint support including an upper strip, a lower strip, and a sloped strip coupled between the upper strip and the lower strip,
- wherein the lower strip of the joint support is formed to include an opening so that mortar extends through the opening to mechanically join the joint support to the exterior wall of the building.
A moisture barrier system adapted to be installed on a building having an interior wall and an exterior wall spaced apart from the interior wall to define a cavity there between, the moisture barrier system comprising:
- a barrier sheet arranged to extend between the interior wall and the exterior wall and arranged to lie in the cavity to block moisture from passing the barrier sheet in the cavity, the barrier sheet comprising an interior reinforcement mesh and an outer polymeric layer, and
- a corner unit configured to attach to the interior wall and the exterior wall and underlie the barrier sheet to support the barrier sheet around a corner of the building,
- wherein the corner unit includes an upper strip adapted to engage the interior wall, a lower strip adapted to engage the exterior wall, and a sloped strip located between the upper strip and the lower strip.
