Claims14
A wall cladding system for application to the surface of an exterior wall erected on a foundation, comprising:
- a waterproof wrap, constructed of a coating of at least one coat of a liquid silicone elastomeric (SE) roof coating applied to the surface of the exterior wall, thereby forming a sealed exterior wall;
- an L-shaped flashing formed of anti-fracturing fabric (AFF) attached to the foot of the sealed exterior wall and extending partly over the foundation adjacent to the sealed exterior wall;
- an insulating panel, configured without surface voids or a drainage plane, attached and sealed to the sealed exterior wall;
- a curb footing formed of concrete secured and sealed to the foundation and disposed against the foot of the sealed exterior wall;
- a fabric-reinforced seal formed of AFF applied around any opening through the insulating panel and the sealed exterior wall;
- a second coat of the SE roof coating applied over the surface of the insulating panel and the fabric-reinforced seal formed around each opening, thereby forming a coated insulating panel;
- and
- a multi-layer stucco coating applied to the coated insulating panel.
