3.10
PENETRATIONS

Confirm that exterior wall openings have been prepared ready for the installation of all window and door frames and other penetrations through the cladding.  Required preparatory work includes the following:

  • wall underlay to openings finished and dressed off ready for the installation of window and door frames and other penetrations
  • claddings neatly finished off to all sides of openings
  • installation of flashings (those required to be installed prior to installation of penetrating elements).

 

Hermpac Construction Drawings call for a compressible bond breaker, closed cell PVC foam seal to NZBC E2/AS1 9.1.10.7.

Refer to the Window & Glass Association NZ (WGANZ) Window Installation Guide.  This covers the WGANZ recommendations on the preparation of window/door openings, minimum clearances between rough openings and the window/door frame, dressing of the wall underlay into the prepared opening, application of flexible flashing tape to the sill and top corners of the opening, installation of window/door frames and flashings, sealing of the window/door frame into the opening to create a pressure equalisation cavity, installation of flashings and the maintenance of appropriate clearances between the frame and the surrounding construction.

Penetrations through drained cavities to NZBC E2/AS1: External moisture, 9.1.9 Penetrations and 9.1.10 Windows and doors.

3.11
SET-OUT

Use a string line, laser or mechanical device to set out all fixing that will be visible in the finished work.  Align accurately in straight lines.  Refer to relevant Hermpac Installation Specification and Construction Drawings to establish correct angle of fixing and consistent, accurate placement relative to visible edge of board.  For vertical shiplap boards, where possible the exposed lap should face away from the prevailing wind.

Application - fixing

These fixing clauses are written for general work.  Read BRANZ Good practice guide: 'Timber Cladding' and use them as a model for particular design and location requirements and the relevant Hermpac Installation Specification and Branz Appraisal before commencing installation.

3.12
FIXING - OIL / STAIN FINISH

Install level, true to line and face, to NZBC E2/AS1: 9.4 Timber weatherboards.  Double coat all cut ends before fixing.  Provide one face fixing per weatherboard at each Vertibat cavity batten over nogging or structurally fixed cavity batten location.  Pilot drill all fixings slightly smaller than gauge of fixing to ensure a snug fit and to minimise risk of moisture entry.  Finish the heads of Hermpac Crown, Rose and Flat head nails, or Hermpac Starcap screws, flush onto and not into the board surface.  Do not over drive the nail/screw head and crush the timber surface beneath and surrounding the nail/screw.

Refer to Hermpac Construction Drawings for fixing details and to SELECTIONS for fixing sizes.

Depending on personal preference and the type of nail head chosen "flush" may not accurately describe the desired finish for fixings; particularly where there is a danger of bruising the board surface.  Modify to suit the preferred method.

Delete if specifying paint finish.

3.13
FIXING - PAINT FINISH

Install level, true to line and face, to NZBC E2/AS1: 9.4 Timber weatherboards.  Double coat all cut ends before fixing.  Provide one face fixing per weatherboard at each Vertibat cavity batten over nogging or structurally fixed cavity batten location.  Pilot drill all fixings slightly smaller than gauge of fixing to ensure a snug fit and to minimise risk of moisture entry.  When using stainless steel jolt head nails, punch all fixings and prime all raw, exposed timber surfaces.  Using an appropriate primer and filler, fill all nail holes flush with board surface.

Refer to Hermpac Construction Drawings for fixing details and to SELECTIONS for fixing sizes.

Delete this clause if specifying oil/stain finish.

3.15
FIXING VERTICAL SHIPLAP WEATHERBOARDS

Install level, true to line and face, to NZBC E2/AS1: 9.4 Timber weatherboards.  Single face fix weatherboards to every fixing point, clear of the adjacent lapped board.  Fixing to be driven in with a slightly upward slope.  Line fixings horizontally across the boards.  Pilot drill all fixings slightly smaller than gauge of fixing to ensure a snug fit and to minimise risk of moisture entry.   Refer to Hermpac Construction Drawings for accurate weatherboard fixing information.

 

Using a Hermpac specialty clinch nail, prior to the next row of Vertical Shiplap boards being fixed alongside (nogs or dwangs at maximum 480mm centres) and at a position hard up against but not into the hidden lap board edge at every fixing point, restrain the hidden lap tongue by driving the clinch nail into the cavity batten so that the clinch head settles flush into the weatherboard's surface.  The clinch nail head must not sit proud of the timber surface nor prevent the correct separation of each adjacent row of boards.  Do not pin laps or weatherboard faces.

 

Refer to Hermpac Construction Drawings and Installation Specification for suitable face fixings (options include Hermpac Silicon Bronze nails or Grade 316 Stainless Steel nails or Starcap screws.  Kanda weatherboards are fixed with Hermpac Starcap screws), correct placement of fixings, size, length and minimum penetration requirements, and for external and internal corner construction and fixing details.

Where wall surfaces are too high for a single board length, specify an appropriate flashing line and retain the requirement for "full length boards" in between flashing lines and/or wall openings.

3.16
FIXING BOARD AND BATTEN

Install level, true to line and face, to NZBC E2/AS1: 9.4 Timber weatherboards.  Face fix in  the centre of the board width (nogs or dwangs at minimum 400 centres to maximum 480mm centres).  Fixing to be driven in with a slightly upward slope.  Line fixings  horizontally across the boards.  Pilot drill all fixings slightly smaller than gauge of fixing to ensure a snug fit and to minimise risk of moisture entry.

 

Using a Hermpac 50 x 2.0mm speciality clinch nail, restrain both hidden board edges by driving the clinch nail positioned hard up against the board edge but not into the board.  Drive the clinch nail into the cavity batten so that the clinch head settles flush into the board surface, prior to the weatherboard batten being fixed over top (nogs or dwangs at maximum 480mm centres).

Do not pin boards or battens.

 

Space boards with a 6-8mm gap for correct alignment of battens over each board beneath.  Face fix the centre of  the batten with a single fixing through the gap between boards at every fixing point.  Fixing  to be driven in with a slightly upward slope.  Line fixings horizontally across the battens and boards.

NB: One fixing in the centre of each board and one fixing in the centre of each batten at each fixing point.

 

Refer to Hermpac Construction Drawings and Installation Specification for suitable face fixings (options include Hermpac Silicon Bronze nails or Grade 316 Stainless Steel nails or Starcap screws.  Kanda weatherboards are fixed with Hermpac Starcap screws), correct placement of fixings, size, length and minimum penetration requirements, and for external and internal corner construction and fixing details.

Where wall surfaces are too high for a single board length, specify an appropriate flashing line and retain the requirement for "full length boards" in between flashing lines and/or wall openings.

3.17
