THE WALL ASSEMBLY from our #maineislandprefabpassive June 2020.
•
This photograph was taken as the wall panel was lowered into place by a crane.
•
The Rothoblaas Level Band gasket pictured here is an excellent air sealing product that we’ve recently added to our panels. This product has resulted in faster and cleaner installations, significantly reducing the need for liquid applied air sealing products.
•
Shell layers from the inside out:
- 2”x 8” LSL plates & KD studs
- Airtight gasket
- 1/2” Zip System sheathing
- Zip Tape
- Steico Tongue & Grove Wood Fiberboard Exterior Insulation
- Hardware Cloth
- 2”x 3”strapping
- Laminated Cor-A-Vent
