EDGES, OPENINGS AND INTERFACES / FIELD NOTE 17
Open-Joint Honeycomb Rainscreen Layout
Open joints admit some water behind the cladding. The project section should show the path for drainage and ventilation as well as the layer that manages water farther inboard.
What to check on your project
Label which elements are cladding, cavity, flashing and water control layer. Review transitions at heads, sills and base conditions and assign responsibility for each interface. Judge the joint by both appearance and the complete assembly detail.
