3′ STONE VENEER WALL

acme2640 | Posted in General Discussion on

I’M PLANNING TO BUILD A 3′ HIGH STONE VENEERED WALL ON A NEW CONSTRUCTION. WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO VENTILATE BEHIND THE STONE VENEER IF IT IS CAPPED WITH A CAP STONE. DOES ANYONE HAVE A DETAIL FOR WHERE THE SIDING MEETS THE STONE CAP?
THANKS.

    Why are you ventilating?

    Yes.  Arch Graphics Standards has some generic stuff.

    Whenever you are asked if you can do a job, tell'em "Certainly, I can!"  Then get busy and find out how to do it.  T. Roosevelt

    The web site for Eldorado Stone has many installation graphics in PDF format you can download.

    Experienced, but still dangerous!
