mthomas1 Posted July 13, 2014 Report Share Posted July 13, 2014 Any idea what this might be? My first though was Staccato, but the building is only five years old...

Marc Posted July 13, 2014 Report Share Posted July 13, 2014 Stucco style hardi-panel? Is that what you term Staccato? Marc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Katen Posted July 13, 2014 Report Share Posted July 13, 2014 Stuccato was a hardboard product made by Masonite. The stuff in your pictures looks like a fibercement product. It's not Hardi or CertainTeed; their stucco panels look very different. Probably some cheap-ass competitor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mthomas1 Posted July 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2014 It *looks* like fiber cement, but I had a hard time believing that a FC product could deteriorate as fast as the material in the third picture, even with that Cat IV exhaust directed onto it. But I guess if it was cheap-ass *enough*... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They make one that looks like that. http://www.beyerslumber.com/roofing-and ... ling-abtco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't find any installation instructions on line, through. Is flashing required at horizontal panel junctions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurt Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Not the place I'm thinking of..... Hardipanel has an "H" channel to hold the panels; it's not flashing necessarily, but it's a channel. Architectural panels like this should have a treated edge intended for exposure, a 1/4 inch (or so) gap, and and (of course) a drainage plane. Dupont had a Tyvek product, black, that was a housewrap intended for use under panels. When you butt the panels, bad things happen, as we can see.
