Structural Rainscreens (Steel Studs/Steel Furring Strips)
Rainscreen systems are designed to promote airflow and moisture management behind
exterior cladding products.
They must be designed by an architect, designer or project engineer. Non-structural
lathe/furring strips are used as a spacer to establish the rainscreen and are not intended
to substitute as a framing member for direct attachment of Allura Fiber Cement Siding.
Steel furring strips must be applied to steel framing
members. Spacing between lathe/furring strips must not
exceed 24”.
