Abstract: A combination rainscreen/lath assembly comprises a corrugated spunbond layer and a lath layer operatively connected to the corrugated spunbond layer. Optionally, the lath layer is corrugated. The assembly is configured and arranged to allow air and moisture to flow therethrough.

Abstract: A system for making a structural connection includes a structural member, a plurality of strips for engaging the structural member and securing devices for securing the strips to a building structure that supports the structural member. The method of making the structural connection includes the steps of providing the structural member, inserting a segment of the structural member into the hollow of a building structure, and securing the structural member to the building structure with two or more strips.

Abstract: A product, and a wall system utilizing such product, adapted to allow drainage of moisture from a wall of a structure. A sheet of corrugated material forms a plurality of ridges and grooves on opposite sides of the sheet of corrugated material. The sheet of corrugated material is relatively inflexible under a force applied generally perpendicular to the sheet. The sheet of corrugated material has a multiplicity of perforations. A sheet of water permeable material is affixed to one side of the sheet of corrugated material. The product is flexible in a direction along the plurality of ridges and grooves allowing the product to be stocked in roll form. A method of providing drainage of moisture from a wall structure is also disclosed.
