  1. AEC – 171 Light Construction Methods and Materials Residential Siding – Materials and Installation presented by Carter Dedolph

  2. Residential Siding • Exterior Building Envelope • Siding Materials • Siding Installation AEC-171 Construction University of Wisconsin - Stout

  3. Residential Siding • Exterior Building Envelope • The exterior building envelope consists of the following components: • Exterior wall finish • Weather barrier AEC-171 Construction University of Wisconsin - Stout

  4. Residential Siding • Exterior Building Envelope • Exterior wall finish • First line of protection for a building from the elements • Includes: • Finish materials such as siding, stucco, or masonry • Trim • Windows and doors • Flashing AEC-171 Construction University of Wisconsin - Stout

  5. Residential Siding • Exterior Building Envelope • Weather barrier • Second line of protection for a building from the elements • 15 lb building paper (building felt) is the traditional material • Housewarp which is spun high density polyethylene sheet, for example Tyvek or Typar, is the common material presently AEC-171 Construction University of Wisconsin - Stout

  27. Residential Siding • Siding Materials • Aluminum • Aluminum siding gained popularity in the 1950’s an 1960’s as a low maintenance alternative to wood siding. The use of aluminum siding has drastically declined due to vinyl and fiber-cement siding. AEC-171 Construction University of Wisconsin - Stout

  28. Residential Siding • Siding Materials • Aluminum • Advantages • Prefinished • Does not require regular maintenance • Expansion and contraction rate lower than vinyl • Disadvantages • Expense • Dents easy • Difficult to repaint • Should be grounded AEC-171 Construction University of Wisconsin - Stout
