2.0 USES
ZIP System® Wall Sheathing panels are used as
combination wall sheathing, air barrier, and water -resistive
barrier. This report recognizes the use of ZIP System
Sheathing, when installed with ZIP Systemn" flexible
flashing seam tape, in walls of Type V construction (IBC)
and dwellings under the IRC, and as an alternate to the
water -resistive barrier required in Chapter 14 of the IBC
and Chapter 7 of the IRC, and to the air barrier required by
Sections R402.4 and C402.5.1 of the 2015 IECC (Sections
R402.4 and C402.4.1 of the 2012 IECC; Sections 402.4.1
and 502.4.3 of the 2009 IECC).
3.0 DESCRIPTION
3.1 Sheathing Panel:
The ZIP System Wall Sheathing panel is an OSB wood
structural panel having a laminated exterior facer. The
Exposure 1 OSB complies with US DOC PS 2 for wood
structural panels. The exterior facer is a medium -density,
phenolic -impregnated, polymer -modified sheet material
qualifying as a Grade D water -resistive barrier (required by
Section 2510.6 of the 2015, 2012 and 2009 IBC). The
panels are nominally 4 feet wide by 8, 9, 10. 11 or 12 feet
long and have a square -finished -edge or machined -edge
profile.
When tested in accordance with ASTM E96 (water
method), the polymer -modified sheet overlay has a
minimum vapor permeance of 12 perms [68.6 X
10'11 kg/(Pa-s-m')]. Equivalent Water Vapor Transmission
rate (WVT) of the polymer -modified sheet overlay is
83.4 g/(24h-m2) when tested at 73.4°F (23°C).
The water -resistive barrier and air barrier properties of
the ZIP System Wall Sheathing Panels are not affected
when the panels are manufactured to comply as facing
materials for SIPS in accordance with Section R610.3.2
and Table R610.3.2 of the 2015 IRC (Section R613.3.2
and Table R613.3.2 of the 2012 and 2009 IRC).
3.2 Seam Tape:
The ZIP SystemT" seam tape is a self -adhering membrane
tape consisting of acrylic adhesive laminated to a
polyolefin backing. The tape is 0.012 inch (0.30 mm) thick
with a minimum width of 3 /4 inches (95.2 mm), and comes
in rolls of various lengths.
4.0 INSTALLATION
4.1 General:
Installation of ZIP System® Wall Sheathing panels must
comply with the applicable code, this report and the
manufacturer's published installation instructions. The
manufacturer's published installation instructions must be
available at the jobsite during installation.
4.2 Application:
4.2.1 General: The ZIP System Wall Sheathing panels
must be attached to wall framing in accordance with the
applicable code for wood structural panels, and in
compliance with their panel span rating. The panels must
be installed with the polymer -modified sheet overlay
facing the exterior. In accordance with the manufacturer's
published installation instructions, it is recommended that
the square edges of the panels be installed with a gap
between adjacent panels and between panels and
dissimilar materials. All ZIP System® Wall Sheathing panel
seams must be sufficiently sealed with ZIP System seam
tape. All overlay surfaces must be dry and free of sawdust
and dirt prior to application of the ZIP System seam tape.

The ZIP SystemTM seam tape must extend a minimum of
1 inch (25.4 mm) past the panel edge T-joint intersections
and must be centered within '/2 inch (12.7 mm) over the
middle of panel seams. The tape must be pressed firmly to
adhere to the surfaces and seal the seams. Wrinkles in
the ZIP System TM seam tape are acceptable unless they
create a leak path to the panel seam.
4.2.2 Flashing: Flashing complying with the applicable
code must be installed at the perimeter of door and
window assemblies, penetrations and terminations of
exterior wall assemblies, exterior wall intersections with
roofs, chimneys, porches, decks, balconies, and similar
projections, and at built-in gutters and similar locations
where moisture could enter the wall. An adhesive -backed
flashing tape recognized in a current ICC-ES evaluation
report must be installed to seal all ZIP Systems Wall
Sheathing flashing joints. Penetration items must be
sealed to the panels. The adhesive -backed flashing tape
must comply with the ICC-ES Acceptance Criteria for
Flexible Flashing Materials (AC148) and must be installed
in accordance with the manufacturer's published
installation instructions. See Figures 1 through 7 of this
report for typical flashing, water -resistive barrier and air
barrier assembly installation details.
4.2.3 Air Barrier Assembly: ZIP System Wall
Sheathing fastened to maximum 24-inch-on-center
(610 mm) wood wall framing, using minimum 6d nails
spaced at 6 inches (152 mm) around panel edges and at
12 inches (305 mm) in the field, leaving a '/8-inch
(3.18 mm) gap between panels, forms an air barrier
assembly when the gaps between panels and the
perimeter of penetrations are sealed with ZIP SystemTM
seam tape as required by Section 4.2.1. The assembly has
demonstrated a maximum air leakage of 0.0072 cfm/ftz
[0.037 L/(s•m2)] infiltration and 0.0023 cfm/ft'
[0.012 L/(s•m2)] exfltration at a pressure differential of
1.57 psf (75 Pa) when tested in accordance with
ASTM E2357.
