Note: James Hardie has a capillary break requirement when installing HardiePanel on a Multi-Family/
Commercial project. Please visit
JamesHardieCommercial.com for further information.
The Optional Use of Rain Screen Systems:
James Hardie will support the use of its exterior siding products with rainscreen systems, but does not take sole responsibility for the entire wall assembly or system.
James Hardie expects the designer or builder using our components as part of the rainscreen system to:
• Adhere to all the installation requirements listed in the relevant product installation instructions.
• Provide adequate details for water management.
• Make the decision about the use of rainscreen.
• James Hardie products does not recommend “drainage mats” or “drainage boards” to provide the necessary capillary break behind our siding. These products can compress during the installation process, impairing the drainage channels and further causing a “wavy” appearance in the plank or panel products.
• Understand the interaction between system components and how each of the components in the system interacts.
• Design of the building envelope accounting for both interior and exterior moisture control.
Design responsibility
In all cases it is the sole responsibility of the architect, envelope engineer or specifier to identify moisture related risks associated with any particular building design and to make any appropriate adjustments or modifications to the installation guidelines given by manufacturers. Wall construction and design must effectively manage moisture, considering both the interior and exterior environment of the building.
Attaching lap siding to wood furring:
When attaching lap siding products over wood furring, the typical fastener used is the 1-1/4 in. long No. 11 ga. roofing nail, blind nailed. This fastener is going to be the shortest fastener approved for fastening lap siding products, therefore the furring must be a minimum of 0.75 in. thick to achieve the same values as ESR 2290 Table 4 states for the
11 ga. 1-1/4 in. roofing nail given plank reveal, stud spacing, building height and exposure category.
A.1
A.2
Installation Over Furring:
When installing James Hardie Siding products over furring the question arises what thickness of furring can be used as an alternate to normal metal or wood studs specified in the ESR 1844 & 2290 Report. General rule of thumb is, the specific ESR 1844 & 2290 fastener must be installed into a material that has the same or better holding power than that specified in the ESR 1844 & 2290 and with the same penetration as the ESR 1844 & 2290 fastener.
Note: The ESR 1844 & 2290 is the primary code compliance document
James Hardie utilizes, but for other common applications and/or products, additional code compliance documentation and/or fastener specifications may exist. For special circumstances out side the scope of the ESR 1844 & 2290, please contact James Hardie’s Technical Services.
When reviewing the following details for attaching to wood furring or framing, an important consideration is that the fastener chosen must be fully encompassed by a wood substrate - the furring may count as all or part of the necessary penetration if it has been proven that the furring and/or wood substrate has the same or better holding power as a timber stud.
Attaching lap siding to steel furring:
When attaching lap siding products to metal furring, the steel furring must be a minimum 20 gauge steel. A fastener should be chosen out of the ESR 2290, Table 4, which is approved for attaching to steel framing. Two general rules that should be considered when choosing a fastener is that a nail (pin) must penetrate steel furring ¼ in., and screws must penetrate steel furring 3 full threads. Therefore, if the rules for steel fastening are followed – given plank reveal, stud spacing, building height, and exposure category – the values are the same as ESR 2290, Table 4 states for the chosen fastener.

Attaching panel siding to wood furring:
When attaching panel siding products over wood furring, the typical fastener used is the 6d common 2 in. long nail.
This fastener is going to be the shortest fastener approved for fastening panel siding products into wood, therefore the furring must be a minimum of 1-11/16 in. thick to achieve the same values as ESR 1844, Table 4, given stud spacing, building height, and exposure category.
It is deemed an acceptable practice to not fasten along the top and bottom plates for the 5/16 in. HardiePanel configurations listed in the ESR 1844, Table 4 using the following fastener type:
• 0.091 in. shank X 0.225 in. HD X 1.5 in. long ring shank nail
• Min. No. 8 X 0.311 HD X 1 in. ribbed bugle head screw
• 0.10 X 0.25 in. HD X 1.5 in. long ET&F pin or equivalent

ATTACHING JAMES HARDIE PRODUCTS TO INSULATED CONCRETE FORMS (ICF)
Considering the proprietary nature of Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF) and the number of ICF manufacturers currently selling product in the US and Canada, James Hardie Building Products cannot calculate or determine the proper fastener for each type of plastic or metal cross-tie flange being used in the field. James Hardie offers the following as a guide to determine the correct siding fastening to be used with the respective ICF system chosen for the project in question.
1.
Determine the projects basic wind design, including basic wind speed, wind exposure category, and mean roof height.
Find the fastener and frame type within James Hardie’s ICC-ES Product Evaluation Report (e.g. ESR 1844 & 2290) that will meet the project’s basic wind design.
Take note of the head diameter, shank diameter, and fastener length for the fastener.
Head diameter
Note: Fastener bearing area is equal to the head area less the shank area.
Shank diameter
Length
Take note of the frame type and frame spacing.
Go to the ICF system manufacturer and find a fastener that is similar in dimension to the fastener from step 2.1 above.
Basically, the bearing area under the ICF fastener head shall be the same as or greater than the bearing area under the James Hardie fastener head from step 2.
Since the James Hardie siding product has to be attached to a structural member, in this case the ICF cross-tie flange, the steps below shall be followed.
The onus is on the ICF system manufacturer to demonstrate that their ICF cross-tie flange holds fasteners, screws or nails, the same as wood or steel framing hold screws or nails.
ICF fastener allowable withdrawal load capacity (applicable factor of safety applied) may be found in an ICC-ES
Product Evaluation for the given ICF manufacturer’s products, OR
The ICF manufacturer may have testing that shows their fastener’s allowable withdrawal load capacity
(applicable factor of safety applied) from their cross-tie flange.
For the fastener from step 2, a registered design professional shall calculate the allowable withdrawal load (factor of safety applied) from the frame type noted in step 2.2.
A registered design professional shall then make an equivalency statement comparing the ICF fastener withdrawal
(step 4.1.1 or step 4.1.2) versus the fastener withdrawal from step 5.
When the ICF cross-tie flange spacing differs from the James Hardie frame spacing in step 2.2, a registered design professional shall calculate the maximum siding fastener spacing into the cross-tie flange needed to resist the applicable basic wind speeds published in
James Hardie’s ESR 1844 & 2290 for the A.9
Concrete fastener and design from step 2.
When required by the code official and once in possession of the information gathered in

WEATHER BARRIER & RIGID FOAM
• When using a weather resistive barrier (WRB) in conjunction with rigid foam insulation, the WRB can be installed underneath the foam as shown, or over the top if more convenient
• Regardless of where the WRB is placed all flashings must be incorporated into the WRB and drainage plane.
• Some rigid foam insulation products are manufactured with tongue & groove or shiplap joints and can be used as the WRB when properly installed and sealed. When using rigid foam insulation as the WRB refer to manufacturers installation instructions.
Trim
Depending upon the reveal around windows, doors, & penetrations, thickness of foam and the type and thickness of trim used there will be different techniques to install the siding and trim to ensure the foam is completely concealed.

INSTALLING HARDIEPLANK ® LAP SIDING AROUND WINDOWS WITH AN INTEGRATED J-CHANNEL
When installing fiber cement around a window with a “J” channel there are a few guidelines which should be followed to control water flow:
1.
All windows must be installed per manufacturers installation instructions and must incorporate all necessary flashings.
2.
At the bottom sides of the window, a flashing must be installed that will redirect any water that runs down the inside of the “J” channel out and away so that it does not run down the wall assembly and behind the plank below the window.
a.
This can be done by inserting a flashing that runs the entire length of the window
(option 1) or by cutting the weather resistive barrier towards the bottom of the window and inserting a smaller flashing and taping with seam tape to reseal the weather resistive barrier (option 2).
b.
This flashing would then be lapped over the last plank at the bottom of the window, similar to a joint flashing, to direct water down and out to the front of the cladding.
3.
A “z” flashing must be installed and integrated into the weather resistive barrier at the top of the window. The “z” flashing will allow water to be drained away from the window and wall, opposed to being captured in the “J” at the top of the window.
(Refer to James Hardie Installation Instructions for further “z” flashing details).
4.
Seal all field cut non factory ends with an exterior grade paint, primer, or sealer.
a.
Insert ends of plank into the “J” channel of the window.
b.
Do not try to squeeze caulk into the “J” channel. c.
Plank integrated into “J” channel must be primed, painted or caulked.

JOINT FLASHING WITH HARDIEPLANK ® LAP SIDING
One or more of the following joint treatment options are required by code (as referenced 2009 IRC R703.10.2)
A. Joint Flashing (James Hardie recommended)
B. Caulking* (Caulking is not recommended for ColorPlus for aesthetic reasons as the Caulking and ColorPlus will weather differently. For the same reason, do not caulk nail heads on ColorPlus products.}
C. “H” jointer cover Flashing behind butt joints provides an extra level of protection against the entry of water at the joint.
James Hardie recommends 6-in. wide flashing that overlaps the course below by 1 in. Some local building codes may require different size flashing. Joint-flashing material must be durable, waterproof materials that do not react with cement products. Examples of suitable material include finished coil stock and code compliant waterresistive barriers. Other products may also be suitable.
119
Finishing and Maintenance
Additional Information (continued)
The reasons for this are:
1.
The use of joint flashing behind field butt joints is an approved joint treatment method as described in the 2006 International Building Code and is recognized by
James Hardie and experts across the building industry to be a superior method.
“1405.17.2 Horizontal lap siding.
Lap siding shall be lapped a minimum of 1
1/4 inches (32 mm) and shall have the ends sealed with caulking, covered with an Hsection joint cover or located over a strip of flashing.”
Joint flashing
Experts across the industry recognize flashings as an effective and responsible method for draining a wall system:
“The fundamental principle of water management is to shed water by layering materials in such a way that water is directed downwards and outwards out of the building or away from the building. The key to this fundamental principle is drainage.
The most elegant expression of this concept is a flashing. Flashings are the most under-rated building enclosure component and arguably the most important.”
EEBA (Energy & Environmental Building Association™) Water Management
Guide By Joseph W. Lstriburek, Ph.D., P.eng. June 2004.
2.
Reduced maintenance required by the home owner – It is recognized by James Hardie, several caulking manufacturers, experts across the industry, and experienced home owners that when caulking is used at field butt joints, maintenance will be required.
Depending on the specific product and the application, caulked field butt joints will need to be maintained to guarantee continued performance over the life of the building.
In addition, several sealant/caulking manufacturers recommend against using their products at butt joints in fiber cement siding for many of the reasons discussed here.
3.
Improved appearance – When installed properly, flashing at a field butt joint can create a better looking joint. James Hardie recommends butting field joints together in moderate contact which achieves a more continuous looking joint. When utilizing a caulked butt joint, a gap specified by the caulk manufacturer must be left at the joint. Over time as the caulk ages, this joint can become pronounced on the wall and stand out.

Estimating
Siding
All houses can be broken down to triangles, rectangles, and squares.
Using these simple shapes it is very easy to estimate the amount of siding required.
1. Break down the portions of the house to be sided into the simple shapes (squares, rectangles, triangles) Figures 12.1 - 12.4.
2.
Determine the height and width of each shape.
3.
Multiply height x width to determine square footage. For triangles divide the total by 2.
4.
Add all of the square footage numbers together.
5.
Subtract large items such as garage doors, large doors, large windows, and banks of windows from total. not being sided.
Do not remove small windows, doors, vents, or other small areas
6.
Total all numbers. This gives you the total covered area.
7.
Use the coverage charts located in this section to determine the number needed.
8. Add a minimum of 5% for waste. If there are multiple (3 or more) gables, chases, bump outs, or dormers add 10%.*
* Material for starter strip is included in the calculation for waste.
Trim
