be installed in a manner that water that enters the assembly can drain to the exterior. The envelope
shall consist of an exterior veneer, a water-resistive barrier as required in R703.2, a minimum 1/8
inch space between the water-resistive barrier and the exterior veneer, and integrated flashings as
required in R703.8. The required space shall be formed by the use of any non-corrodible furring
strip, drainage mat or drainage board..The.envelope shall provide'proper integration'of flashings " '....

A space is not required where the exterior veneer is installed over a water-resistive barrier
complying with section R703.2 which is manufactured in a manner to enhance drainage and
meets the 75% drainage efficiency requirement of ASTM E2273 or other recbg~iz~d . (

A space is not required where window sills are equipped with pan flashings which drain to
the exterior surface of the veneer in a through wall fashi,on: ~II pan flashings shall be';-_\ :".' "

membrane complying with AAMA 711-07 or of an approved corrosion-resistant material or
a combination thereof. Self-adhering membranes extending to the exterior surface of the
veneer shall be concealed with trims or other measures to protect from sunlight.
3. A space is not required where the exterior veneer is manufactured in a manner to enhance
drainage and meets the 75% drainage efficiency requirements of ASTM E2273 or other

envelope, including joints, penetrations and intersections with dissimilar materials, in -
accordance with ASTM E 331 under the following conditions: ..,
6.1. Exterior wall envelope test assemblies shall include at least one opening;-ore control
joint, one wall/eave interface and one wall sill. All tested openings and penetrations . .
shall be representative of the intended end-use configuration.
Exterior wall envelope test assemblies shall be at least 4 feet by 8 feet in size.
Exterior wall assemblies shall be tested at a minimum differential pressure of 6.24
pounds per square foot.
6.4. Exterior wall envelope assemblies shall be subjected to a minimum test exposure
duration of 2 hours.
The exterior wall envelope design shall be considered to resist wind-driven rain where the
results of the testing indicate that water did not penetrate: control joints in the exterior
wall envelope; joints at the perimeter of openings penetration; or intersections of
terminations with dissimilar materials.
