Exterior Wall Cladding Systems

This new copper cladding benefitted from PL:BECS design and specification input.
Deep familiarity with exterior wall claddings of all types has allowed PL:BECS to pioneer new systems and assemblies. PL:BECS began using its self-drying Zephyr Drain-Vented cladding systems a decade before “rain-screen” assemblies became popular in local markets. PL:BECS publication, Zen of Brick, has been used to guide the design and construction of numerous brick-clad structures, and has also been used as a training tool by masonry schools.
Specific system expertise includes concrete and glass block masonry, brick and stone veneers, thin-stone claddings, panelized brick, pre-cast concrete, Exterior Insulation and Finish Systems, tilt-up and cast-in-place concrete, wood and metal sidings, terra-cotta, stucco, wall flashings, coatings, penetrating water repellents, and related materials.
