The siding is produced in a nominal wall thicknesses between 0.080 and 0.10 inch (2.0 and 2.5 mm), and is available in finishes simulating cedar shingles, hand-split shakes, brick and stone, as shown in Figure 1. Refer to Table 1 for the profile names and related descriptive information. 3.2 Sheathing Substrates:  Minimum 7/16-inch-thick (11.1 mm) Exposure 1 plywood structural sheathing complying with DOC PS-1.  Minimum 7/16-inch-thick (11.1 mm) Exposure 1 oriented strand board (OSB) sheathing complying with DOC PS-2.  Other substrate composed of wood or wood-based material and fasteners having equivalent withdrawal resistance. 3.3 Fasteners: Galvanized or aluminum roofing nails or screws with a minimum length of 11/2 inches (38 mm), a minimum shank diameter of 0.12 inch (3 mm), and a 7/16-inch (11 mm) head ESR-2888 | Most Widely Accepted and Trusted Page 2 of 7 diameter, except for the Classic Shake - NovikShake® CS and Atlas Stone™ – Stacked, the minimum length of fasteners shall be 2 inches (51 mm). 4.0 DESIGN AND INSTALLATION 4.1 General: Novik® Polymer Siding must be installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s published installation instructions, the applicable code, and this report. The manufacturer’s published installation instructions and this report must be strictly adhered to, and a copy of the instructions must be available on the jobsite at all times during installation. When tested in accordance with ASTM E84, all portions of the test specimen ahead of the flame front remained in position during testing. The Novik® polymer siding, except Classic Shake - NovikShake® CS and Atlas Stone™ – Stacked, complies with 2018 IBC Section 1403.12.1 [2015 and 2012 IBC Section 1404.12.1] and 2018 IRC Section R703.14.3 and is not subject to the fire separation distance as descried in 2018 IBC Section 1403.12.2 [2015 and 2012 IBC Section 1404.12.2 and IRC R703.14.2]. 4.2 Design: 4.2.1 General: Design wind pressures must be determined in accordance with IBC Chapter 16 or IRC Section R301.2.1.1, as applicable. 4.2.2 IBC: 4.2.2.1 2018, 2015 and 2012 IBC: Where the allowable design wind speed, (Vasd), does not exceed 100 miles per hour (45 m/s) in Exposure C areas, where the building height is less than or equal to 40 feet (12.2 m), Novik® Polymer Siding may be installed over solid sheathing, as noted in 2018 IBC Section 1404.18 [2015 and 2012 IBC Section 1405.14.1]. 4.2.2.2 2009 and 2006 IBC: Where the basic wind speed (3-second gust) does not exceed 100 miles per hour (45 m/s) in Exposure C areas, where the building height is less than or equal to 40 feet (12.2 m), Novik® Polymer Siding may be installed over solid sheathing, as noted in 2009 IBC Section 1405.14.1 or 2006 IBC Section 1405.13.1, as applicable. 4.2.3 IRC: 4.2.3.1 2018 and 2015 IRC: Where the ultimate design wind speed does not exceed 140 miles per hour (63 m/s) as noted in IRC Table R703.3(1). 4.2.3.2 2012, 2009 and 2006 IRC: Where the building’s mean roof height does not exceed 30 feet (9144 mm) and the basic wind speed does not exceed 110 miles per hour (49 m/s) (3-second gust), in Exposure B areas, and does not exceed 90 miles per hour (40 m/s) in Exposure C areas or 85 miles per hour (37 m/s) in Exposure D areas, Novik® Polymer Siding may be installed over solid sheathing as noted in IRC Table R703.4. 4.3 Installation: The Novik® Polymer Siding must be installed over a solid sheathing substrate, as described in Section 3.2, which is capable of withstanding the imposed positive and negative design wind loads. Sheathing substrate must be fastened to the wall framing which has a minimum specific gravity (S.G.) of 0.42 in accordance with the applicable code, taking into account the transverse wind loads to which it will be subjected in use. The sheathing substrate must be covered with an approved water-resistive barrier where required by code. Fasteners as described in Section 3.3 must be used to install the siding. The fasteners must be installed in the center fixing hole, installation hole at the two ends and at maximum intervals of 16 inches on center (406 mm). The fasteners must also be installed in each lateral hole of those models in which lateral holes are present. The siding fastener penetration must be a minimum 3/4-inch (19.1 mm) beyond the backside of the sheathing or a minimum embedment of 3/4 inch (19.1 mm) into wood framing, leaving a 1/16-inch (1.6 mm) gap between the fastener head and the panel to allow for thermal expansion. One fastener must be located in the center fixing hole of those models in which a fixing hole is present, to prevent lateral movement. See the manufacturer’s published installation instructions for more details concerning installation of siding and specific trim and accessories. Flashing in accordance with the applicable code must be installed at all openings, penetrations, and abutments with dissimilar materials, and at terminations of the siding and soffit. 4.3.1 Use on Exterior Walls in Types I, II, III, and IV Construction in accordance with 2018 IBC Section 1405.1 (Ignition Resistance): When the exterior wall is sheathed with fire retardant treated wood sheathing, the Novik® Polymer Siding, except Classic Shake - NovikShake® CS and Atlas Stone™ - Stacked, can be used on the exterior side of exterior walls on buildings of Type I, II, III or IV construction. The siding shows no sustained flaming at a maximum tolerable level of incident radiant heat flux of 12.5 kW/m2, when tested in accordance with NFPA 268. The minimum fire separation distance required shall be determined from 2018 IBC Table 1405.1.1.1.2. The installation of the siding must comply with the applicable requirements in 2018 IBC Section 1405.1. When the exterior wall is required to be fire- resistance-rated, the fire separation distance must be in accordance with IBC Section 705.5. 4.3.2 One-hour Fire-resistance-rated Assembly (Exposed from both sides): Under the 2018 IBC, the siding panels, except Classic Shake - NovikShake® CS and Atlas Stone™ - Stacked, may be used as an alternate to the wall covering required for the one-hour fire-resistance-rated wall assembly specified in 2018 IBC Item 15-1.15 of Table 721.1 (2). The siding panels must be installed over the exterior face of the assembly using 21/2 inch (63.5 mm) long washer head wood screws, spaced 16 inches (406 mm) on center. The siding must be fastened through the gypsum sheathing to the studs. The assembly must be used with a minimum fire separation distance of 5 feet (127 mm). This assembly has not been evaluated for wind loads. Using the assembly to resist wind loads is outside the scope of this evaluation report. 5.0 CONDITIONS OF USE The Novik® Polymer Siding described in this report complies with, or is a suitable alternative to what is specified in, those codes listed in Section 1.0 of this report, subject to the following conditions: 5.1 Installation must comply with this report, the manufacturer’s published instructions, and the applicable code.
