Definitions

  • Cladding or cladding panels is known as the application of one material over another to provide a skin or layer.
  • cladding may be used to provide a certain degree of thermal insulation and weather resistance, and to improve the appearance of buildings.
  • Cladding can be made of any of a wide range of materials including wood, metal, brick, vinyl, and composite materials that can include aluminum, wood, blends of cement and even recycled polystyrene, or wheat/rice straw fibers.
  • Rainscreen cladding is a form of weather cladding designed to protect against the elements, but also offers thermal insulation.
  • the cladding does not itself need to be waterproof, but merely a control element.
  • cladding may serve only to direct water or wind safely away in order to control run-off and prevent its infiltration into the building structure.
  • Cladding may also be for interior walls or ceilings either as an aesthetic choice or to hide sound attenuation devices such as acoustic panels. [0005] Affixing cladding on the facade of buildings can be challenging as the cladding itself may have no structural stability. In addition, depending on the material used for cladding, additional difficulties may be experienced by the installers. In the past or over the last ten years there has been an increase in the use of open joint rain screens for cladding both commercial and residential buildings.
  • this style of cladding has made it SBORN-002 possible to use square edged deck boards for cladding, which has become an emergent trend in new building design.
  • Installers putting up rainscreens most commonly use wood or metal furring strips where the metal furring strip is most commonly a hat channel or z-girt. Mounting these furring strips on the building facade typically requires multiple installers on scaffolding, where at least one installer holds the furring strip in place, while the other installer fastens the furring.
  • galvanized hat channels and z-girts are commonly used as furring strips, they do not always provide the necessary protection for harsh environments such as the seashore.
  • the first set of furring strips are installed vertically against the building facade for the purpose of drainage and ventilation.
  • the subsequent second set of furring strips are installed horizontally over top of the initial vertical furring strips to create a grid pattern.
  • This grid pattern allows for cladding boards to be installed vertically while still maintaining the proper drainage required for a rainscreen.
  • This practice is both expensive and time-consuming but is the only effective method on the market so far. [0009]
  • the problem faced by the market is that there is a lack of information on how to adapt decking as cladding. In particular, there is market confusion about what hardware components are needed to do this installation. [0010] Therefore, an alternative securing device has great importance.
  • the interlocking feature allows for a temporary connection of the next furring strip prior to being fastened to the building, thereby eliminating a second worker to hold the next furring strip in place, as is common practice today.
  • the furring strip may be made adjustable by providing various lengths other than the standard longer length.
  • Another objective is to have predrilled hole in the lip of the furring strip to assist placing screws or other fasteners therethrough. A broad selection of fasteners may be used to accommodate almost all deck to cladding situations.
  • Another objective is to have a black coating on the hat channel which will be equally functional and aesthetic, where the coating can provide additional corrosion protection, can prevent thermal bridging and conceals the furring strip from view.
  • Still another objective is to place insulation material ether on the back of the hat channel where the lip is located completely covering the channel made by the furring strip or just on the lip.
  • insulation material includes but is not limited to thermoplastic elastomers, rubber and the like.
  • Yet another objective is to have instead of one continuous lip on either side of the furring strip but one continuous lip just on one side of the furring strip and/or a non- continuous lip where the lip is segmented on both, and/or either sides of the furring strip.
  • the furring strip may be made of any material including but not limited to metal, plastic, wood, concrete, composite materials, carbon fibers, fiberglass, and any combination thereof.

  • a fixation device used in applying decking material and/or other material to the face of a building.
  • rainscreens are an existing form of siding construction where the siding, also referred to as cladding, is spaced off of the building envelope using furring for increased ventilation and drainage. The additional ventilation and drainage come with a host of benefits, such as allowing the building to breathe, reducing moisture build-up, and minimizing the formation of mold.
  • Rainscreens can be either open-joint or closed-joint.
  • open-joint rainscreens have gaps between the cladding which allows for further ventilation. Closed joint rainscreens have no gaps between boards and in some cases the boards may overlap.
  • the typical method for spacing the cladding off of the building envelope is with “furring strips.” These are usually wooden strips, metal z-girts, or metal hat channels, however other, less-common types exist made from plastics or fiberglass. These furring strips are fastened back to the building stud and, in some cases, are responsible for holding the SBORN-002 weight of whatever cladding is going on the building.
  • Figure 1 illustrates one embodiment of an interlocking furring strip 100.
  • Strip 100 has a base section 101 and at least one lip 102 extending from a side of the base 101.
  • the base 101 has two ends. On one end there is a plurality of legs 104 having tabs 103 attached thereto.
  • the other end of the base 101 is a plurality of members 106 forming an opening 107.

  • Lips 502 may be on or along one side or both sides of furring strip 500. As shown the lips 502 are intermittent along the furring strip and the side of the furring strip 500 may further define an indent 503 defined by a side wall 509. The purpose of indent 503 is to permit airflow in and through the channel 108 of the furring strip.
