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 retrofit brick tie comprises an elongate member having a first end and a second end. The first end includes a first aperture and a second aperture. Each of the first and second apertures is configured and arranged to receive a fastener. The second end includes a first elongated opening and a second elongated opening. Each of the first and second elongated openings is configured and arranged to receive an adhesive. A method of installing the retrofit brick tie comprises creating a bore in an interior surface of a brick structure, filling the bore with an adhesive, and inserting the second end into the bore. A stud is positioned proximate the interior surface, and a fastener is inserted through each of the first and second apertures and into the stud thereby securing the stud to the brick structure.

Abstract: A corner support assembly comprises a first portion and a second portion. The first portion has a first flange configured and arranged to be connected to a corner. The second portion has a second flange. The second portion is operatively connected to the first portion, and the second portion is configured and arranged to be adjustable relative to the first portion to vary a distance between the first and second flanges of the first and second portions to accommodate varying thicknesses of different types of insulation between the first and second flanges.

Abstract: A termination assembly comprises a termination member and a drainage assembly. The termination member includes a base interconnecting a connecting flange and a supporting flange, and the base is configured and arranged to receive a portion of a wall between the connecting flange and the supporting flange. The drainage assembly includes a drainage member operatively connected to the base, and the drainage member creates a void to facilitate drainage and ventilation.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to lath/rainscreen assemblies including a sheet defining lath and rainscreen faces, first and second ends, and first and second sides. A plurality of protrusions extend from the rainscreen face and also optionally the lath face. The protrusions on the lath face in combination with the lath face provide a substrate for application of a stucco veneer. If no protrusions are provided on the lath face, the lath face can be secured to siding. The rainscreen face and protrusions of the rainscreen face collectively form channels through which moisture can drain to a weep screen or the like. Each of the lath face and the rainscreen face include area free of protrusions so that multiple lath/rainscreen assemblies can be secured to the structure in an overlapping fashion. Methods of installing and making lath/rainscreen assemblies are also disclosed.

Abstract: Device, system and method for weeping and diverting moisture in a wall structure. A weep screed has an elongate screed support portion and an elongate screed angled portion laterally attached to the screed support portion and forming an acute angle with respect to the screed support portion. The weep screed has holes formed to allow the passage of water. The weep screed deflector has an elongate deflector support portion and an elongate deflector angled portion laterally attached to the deflector support portion and forming an obtuse angle with respect to the deflector support portion. The weep screed deflector is positioned with the screed support portion laterally proximate the deflector support portion and with the deflector angled portion below the screed angled portion, such that water which passes through the holes is deflected, at least in part, by the deflector angled portion.

Abstract: System and method for making a wall structure which diverts moisture from an opening. The wall structure has a structural member with a horizontal opening. A moisture diverter is secured to the structural member above the opening, the moisture diverter having a first end and a second end and a length, with the diverter length greater than the horizontal opening distance and the first end positioned relatively higher than the second end. The moisture diverter is laterally positioned at least partially over the horizontal opening. The moisture diverter has a first planar portion and a second planar portion attached to the first planar portion, forming an acute angle. A moisture barrier is secured to the structural member, at least in part, within a volume defined by the first planar portion and the second planar portion. A facade member is secured to the structural member distal of the moisture barrier.

Abstract: A moisture drainage product and a wall system utilizing such product adapted to allow drainage of moisture from a wall of a structure and a method of draining moisture from a wall structure. A sheet of material forms a plurality of ridges and grooves on opposite sides of the sheet of material. The plurality of ridges and grooves forms a moisture drainage product having a bearing surface of not more than twenty (20%) of the surface area of the product. A sheet of water permeable material is affixed to one side of the sheet of material.

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.

Abstract: A foundation vent structure is positioned upon the footing of a building below the lowermost row of concrete blocks of the basement wall and extends below the concrete floor of the basement. The vent structure is formed of a plastic material, preferably in strips, and is shaped to define alternate tunnels and channels having openings therein. The vent structure intercommunicates the openings in the hollow, concrete blocks with the drain area located along the marginal area below the basement wall to permit moisture to be vented into this drain area.
