Abstract: A system and method for cladding a building. The system comprises a rigid base layer supported by an exterior exposed surface of the building and a metal mesh secured and retained in direct contact with an exterior surface of the rigid base layer with fasteners. The system further comprises a layer of a base coat applied over the metal mesh so as to form a matrix therearound and a finishing barrier layer applied over the matrix of the metal mesh and the base coat layer. The method comprises securing the rigid base layer to an exterior exposed surface of the building, securing and retaining a metal mesh in direct contact to the exterior surface of the rigid base layer with fasteners, applying a cement base coat over the metal mesh so as to form a matrix therearound and applying a finishing barrier layer over the base coat.

The system comprises a metal mesh supported by an exterior exposed surface of the building a layer of a base coat applied over the metal mesh so as to form a matrix therearound and a finishing barrier layer applied over the matrix of the metal mesh and the base coat layer. The system may further comprise a rigid base layer of expanded polystyrene applied to the building exterior below the metal mesh wherein the metal mesh is secured to the base layer. The method comprises supporting the metal mesh by an exterior exposed surface of the building applying the cement base coat over the metal mesh so as to form a matrix therearound and applying a finishing barrier layer over the base coat.
