1 Discussion of the Stucco Identification of All Panels

2 Mock-Up Stucco Identification Review: Review of Home Inspector Observations by Mock-Up: What type of system is Mock-Up Number and why? Where did you look. What did you look for.

3 Mock-Up 1 side a What clues to the type of system are visible?

4 Mock-Up 1 side a System is crushed by ledger; probably EIFS.

5 Mock-Up 1 side a System is crushed by hand rail support; probably EIFS.

6 Mock-Up 1 side a Weep casing at bottom of wall above deck flashings; MD-EIFS?.

7 Mock-Up 1 side a Appears paper is visible at edge; MD-EIFS?

8 Mock-Up 1 side a PVC weep starter track at bottom of wall; MD-EIFS?

9 Mock-Up 1 side a Look for damaged or incomplete areas; MD-EIFS!

10 Mock-Up 1 side b Not plastered.

11 Mock-Up 2 side a What clues to the type of system are visible?

12 Mock-Up 2 side a System appears backwrapped; EIFS?

13 Mock-Up 2 side a No PVC starter track no visible paper; probably Barrier EIFS.

14 Mock-Up 2 side a Weep casing at bottom of wall above deck flashings; may be MD-EIFS or it could be Barrier or Face Seal EIFS.

15 Mock-Up 2 side a No paper is visible at edge; Barrier EIFS?

16 Mock-Up 2 side a Bottom of wall is back wrapped with no drainage; Barrier EIFS?

17 Mock-Up 2 side a Look for damaged or incomplete areas; Barrier EIFS!

18 Mock-Up 2 side b What clues to the type of systems are visible?

19 Mock-Up 2 side b Galvanized weep casing at bottom of wall; probably HCS.

20 Mock-Up 2 side b System sounds solid; possible corner aid visible; probably HCS.

21 Mock-Up 2 side b Stucco netting, corner aid and casing visible; HCS.

22 Mock-Up 2 side b Look for damaged or incomplete spots. Metal weep casing, building paper, EPS, stucco netting & cementitious base coat; HCS!

23 Mock-Up 2 side b Stucco netting, corner aid and casing visible; HCS.

24 Mock-Up 2 side b Look for damaged or incomplete spots! Weep casing, building paper, XPS, stucco netting & cementitious base coat; HCS!

25 Mock-Up 3 side a What clues to the type of system are visible?

26 Mock-Up 3 side a System appears to have galvanized weep casing; probably HCS.

27 Mock-Up 3 side a Galvanized weep casing at bottom of stucco; implies HCS.

28 Mock-Up 3 side a Galvanized weep casing at bottom of wall above low roof; implies HCS.

29 Mock-Up 3 side a Head flashing with end dam and galvanized weep casing above flashing; HCS.

30 Mock-Up 3 side a Bottom of wall terminated about 2 inches above slab with galvanized weep casing; HCS.

31 Mock-Up 3 side a Look for damaged or incomplete areas. Metal casing, building paper, lath and corner aid; HCS.

32 Mock-Up 3 side b View of properly installed kickout flashing in HCS.

33 Mock-Up 3 side b Looking at a kickout from the wall sheathing out; kickout flashing sealed to casing.

34 Mock-Up 3 side b Kickout flashing is missing and casing just above roof shingles; this makes wall vulnerable to water intrusion.

35 Mock-Up 3 side b Looking at a missing kickout location from the wall sheathing out; daylight visible through gaps.

36 Mock-Up 4 side a What clues to the type of system are visible?

37 Mock-Up 4 side a Look near vents and other penetrations; cement board substrate is visible.

38 Mock-Up 4 side a Cement Board substrate with fiberglass mesh is visible at edge of wall cladding; DEFS or DA.

39 Mock-Up 4 side a inch PVC weep accessory at bottom of wall cladding; Most likely DA.

40 Mock-Up 4 side a Head flashing is present but no other information can be obtained at this window.

41 Mock-Up 4 side a Look for damaged or incomplete areas; this mock-up revealed casings, paper, cement board, etc; DA.

42 Mock-Up 4 side b Look for damaged or incomplete areas; 3 or 4 systems on this side.

43 Mock-Up 4 side b Improper Barrier EIFS on open studs. Note: if this was Polyisocyanurate Insulation then this could be an old PI system.

44 Mock-Up 4 side b Old DEFS or DA system on open framing with no moisture resistive barrier and only cement board joints taped. Note: DensGlass substrate was permitted by some manufacturers with only joints taped; most have failed.

45 Mock-Up 4 side b DEFS or DA system on open framing with moisture resistive barrier and only cement board joints taped; this was an intermediate phase of DA systems.

46 Mock-Up 4 side b Hard Coat Stucco on open framing with Weather Resistive Barrier, stucco netting, scratch coat and brown coat.

47 Mock-Up 4 side b Hard Coat Stucco on open framing with Weather Resistive Barrier, stucco wires run between nails into studs, scratch coat and brown coat.
