Renewable natural pineThe NZ radiata pine used in the A-lign Concealed Fix timber cladding system solution is from renewable and sustainable plantation resources.

It is a remarkably versatile timber renowned for exceptional machining properties, durability and lightness.

Once finger-jointed they form products that exceed the pine’s original physical and structural characteristics by over 400%.

This makes it a brilliant natural ‘environmentally friendly’ construction choice over alternative building materials made from non-renewable fossil fuels.

Branz Impact Test Impact resistance is a key criteria for cladding materials being used in the construction of schools and similar light commercial buildings not exceeding 10 metres in height. To meet regulatory and specifier requirements, A-lign Concealed Fix timber weatherboard (18mm thick) were subjected to hard body high impact resistance tests performed by BRANZ. High density fibre cement weatherboard (16mm thick) were also included in these tests. A-lign Concealed Fix timber weatherboard performed significantly better than the fibre cement weatherboard and, although the level of damage caused to both was small, the fibre cement weatherboard had a greater depth of ball indentation.

Independently assessedA BRANZ Appraisal is a comprehensive independent assessment of building products and systems for fitness for purpose and Building Code compliance.

The A-lign Concealed Fix timber cladding system solution has been vigorously assessed from manufacturing processes, through to fitness for purpose, durability, weather-tightness performance and structural capability over a drained and vented cavity.

A-lign® by Claymark aligns

natural sustainable timber to modern design needs – combining striking good looks with guaranteed high performance.

Scope

The A-lign Concealed Fix timber cladding cavity system can be used for the cladding specification of light commercial and domestic buildings where the:• Building is within the scope of NZS 3604 timber

framed buildings and E2/AS1.• Building height does not exceed 10 metres.• Building is situated NZS 3604 Building Wind Zones

up to, and including ‘Extra High’.• Cladding solution uses the A-lign accessories and

Quickflash flashings given in this specification.• Building has an E2/AS1 risk score of 0-20.

These specifications:• Cover the installation of A-lign Concealed Fix

bevelback weatherboards as a complete cladding solution following the details given in this document and associated CAD files.

• Must be made specific to each building project by including only those clauses that apply and omitting those that do not apply.

• Are written as direct instructions to the contractor (it does not make use of the words ‘should’ or ‘shall’) and this format must be adhered to.

Note: The A-lign® Bevelback Weatherboard Cavity Cladding Solution can also be used as a wall cladding solution for buildings within the following scope:

• the scope limitations of NZS 3604 Clause 1.1.2; and,

• constructed with timber framing complying with the NZBC; and,

• up to 3 storeys with a maximum height from ground to highest pointernal of the roof of 10m; and,

• with floor plan area limited only by seismic and structural control joints; and,

• situated in specific design wind pressures up to a maximum design differential ultimate limit state (ULS) of 2.5 kPa.

Note: The success of the cladding solution is dependent on the stability and accuracy of the framing which must meet the minimum standards set by NZS 3604. Accurate face alignment of the profiled Concealed Fix structural cavity batten both in the horizontal and vertical planes is of critical importance.

2.3 Accessories by Quickflash Use of Quickflash flashings are an integral part of the A-lign cladding system solution as defined in the CAD drawings. Select the flashings required.

Soakers are not part of the Quickflash range so should be purchased separately.

3.0 DetailingA-lign Concealed Fix bevelback weatherboard CAD details are contained in this document.

4.0 A-lign Concealed Fix on siteArrange for delivery of A-lign Concealed Fix timber weatherboards just prior to being required.

4.1 StorageNote: Correct storage of weatherboards on site is critical.

A-lign Concealed Fix weatherboards, Concealed Fix structural cavity battens and accessories have been machined to fine engineered tolerances from finger-jointed clear wood base material with an equilibrium moisture content of 11% plus or minus 2%. If A-lign Concealed Fix weatherboards, Concealed Fix structural cavity battens and accessories are exposed to moisture before installing, as wood is hygroscopic and primers do not prevent moisture uptake, some dimensional swelling will occur and the ease of the system installation will be impaired. Correct storage of the weatherboards, battens and accessories is critical for ease of installation.

4.2 HandlingDo not tip the weatherboards from a truck. Either use a mechanical lifting device or unload the weatherboards by hand.

Do not drag weatherboards across the ground.

Always carry individual weatherboards with their long section vertical, to avoid excessive bending.

8.1 MaterialsBacking rod: Closed cell PEF rod of a diameter to suit the gap.

Air seal: Acrylic latex or modified silicon sealant complying with ISO 11600 used in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions or low expansion self-expanding polyurethane foam in accordance with the requirements of E2/AS1.

8.2 InstallationInsert the backing rod into the gap between the window reveal/meterbox and the trim framing to the perimeter of the opening. Press in approximately 15mm.

Apply the sealant/expanding foam.

Trim off excess material.

9.0 Drained and vented cavities

Note: For designs following E2/AS1 a drained and vented cavity is required behind bevelback weatherboards when the weathertightness risk score for that building face exceeds 12.

The cavity is formed by fixing A-lign Concealed Fix structural cavity battens over the studs. A-lign Concealed Fix structural cavity battens are to be structurally fixed in accordance with BRANZ Bulletin 475. Vermin proofing, which allows draining and ventilation, must be fitted to the bottom of the cavity.

9.1 DesignThe cavity must be open to the exterior at the bottom of every second storey and across the tops of windows, doors and other penetrations such as meter boxes. Fit Quickflash cavity closures to prevent vermin entry.

9.2 MaterialsConcealed Fix structural cavity battens: A-lign Concealed Fix structural cavity battens – 45 x 33mm are treated to H3.1.

Flashing battens: The A-lign flashing battens are 45 x 14mm, treated to H3.1 and are designed to support internal and external corners and abutting cladding profile flashings so the folded edge of the flashing aligns with the adjacent Concealed Fix structural cavity batten and does not distort the weatherboard line.

Cavity closure: Zinc/aluminium alloy coated steel, aluminium or stainless steel supplied by Quickflash with a minimum ventilation area of 1000mm2 per lineal metre of wall.

9.3 Fixing Concealed Fix structural cavity battens Note: Refers to the fixing of A-lign Concealed Fix structural cavity battens, over wall underlay, to the wall studs. This allows the A-lign Concealed Fix bevelback weatherboard to be fixed directly to the Concealed Fix structural cavity batten.

Set out

• As the batten fixing determines the weatherboard set-out it is critical that the base set-out of the batten is perfectly level and achieves the minimum tolerances from the bottom plate or floor slab and the finished ground level as set out in A-lign Concealed Fix drawings Figure 6.01 or Figure 6.02.

• Window trim set out to ensure a full weatherboard at the head can also be calculated using the A-lign Concealed Fix Set-out guides in this Manual.

Fix batten as follows:• Over framing members.• With a gap between battens at corners and below

windows. Note that battens must be kept at least 100mm away from the line of the trimmed opening below windows.

• Where penetrations of the wall cladding (other than windows) are wider than the cavity batten spacing, allowance must be made for air flow between adjacent cavities by leaving a minimum 10mm gap between the bottom of the vertical cavity batten and the flashing to the opening.

• With no continuous horizontal battens below windows.

• Vertical battens continuous past the ends of head flashings.

• Fix A-lign Concealed Fix structural cavity battens over wall underlay to studs with 60 x 2.80 hot dipped galvanised or stainless steel ring shank jolt head hand driven. 64 x 2.80 hot dipped galvanised gun driven/65 x 2.87 stainless steel ring shank gun driven 330mm centres for 150 x 25mm weatherboards or 310mm centres for 200 x 25mm weatherboards. Stagger fixings 12mm either side of the batten centre line. The fixing length must be increased by the thickness of the rigid sheathing where one is used.

9.4 Cavity closure Fit continuous Quickflash cavity closure trim to the bottom of all cavities, including across the tops of openings to prevent vermin entry. Fix with 30 x 2.50mm galvanized flat head nails/clouts at 400mm centres.

10.0 Fixing A-lign Concealed Fix bevelback weatherboard

10.1 FixingsUnlike standard A-lign bevelback Weatherboards, no nails are used in fixing the A-lign Concealed Fix bevelback weatherboard system apart from fixing the last board at the eaves, soffit or gable end.

In these isolated positions the nail may need to penetrate the weatherboard and will require punching, spot priming, filling, sanding and re-priming of the area surrounding the nail. If eaves moulds are used then this is fixed through the eaves mould and the weatherboard.

10.2 Fixing methodFix each board on the A-lign Concealed Fix structural cavity batten by sliding the board up to the underside of the lock-grip. Engage it over the machined groove and slowly slide it down the Concealed Fix structural cavity batten until the wedge is engaged.

Do not use a hammer or percussion in this process as percussion can snap the lock-grip off.

Once the weatherboard is locked in position, install the A-lign Concealed Fix EPDM lockstrip by stretching it to reduce its diameter and install in the gap at the top of the weatherboard. Release and trim the EPDM 10mm out from the Concealed Fix structural cavity batten sides.

For long board lengths

Start fixing the board from the centre position and work outwards to the ends repeating the above process.

Shorter board lengths can be engaged over all lock-grips at the same time.

Repeat this process up the wall until the cladding is complete.

10.3 Setting outThe A-lign Concealed Fix structural cavity batten is the storey rod and once fixed in position accurately determines the weatherboard location and the 32mm minimum lap.

All scribers and interior corner moulds are accurately machined to match the Concealed Fix structural cavity battens weatherboard set out.

Remember timber even in its primed form is hygroscopic and will take on moisture and expand when it is exposed to the elements (rain or dampness).

Keeping the product dry at all times prior to installation ensures consistent measurement with minimum variation.

10.4 Fixing procedure for bevelback weatherboardsThe location of the bottom weatherboard is pre-determined by the batten position to achieve minimum clearances between the bottom plate and finished ground levels. Use a A-lign Concealed Fix bevelback weatherboard and a A-lign Concealed Fix base mould. Fix the A-lign Concealed Fix base mould in place.

Continue installing A-lign Concealed Fix weatherboards up the wall.

Cut the final board to fit to the eaves/soffit.

10.4 Fixing procedure for bevelback weatherboardsThe location of the bottom weatherboard is pre-determined by the batten position to achieve minimum clearances between the bottom plate and finished ground levels. Use a A-lign Concealed Fix bevelback weatherboard and a A-lign Concealed Fix base mould. Fix the A-lign Concealed Fix base mould in place.

Continue installing A-lign Concealed Fix weatherboards up the wall.

Cut the final board to fit to the eaves/soffit.

10.5 Joining weatherboardFix weatherboards in full wall lengths where possible.

Make joints where unavoidable over Concealed Fix structural cavity battens. Scarf the jointernal at 45˚ and use one fixing through the overlapping board.

Prime the cut-ends of scarf joints with End Seal aerosol primer, or with two coats of premium timber primer before fixing. Allow to dry between coats.

Cover the jointernal with a flat soaker.

Scribe and notch alternate weatherboards or use the A-lign pre-cut 36 x 36mm internal corner double scriber.

Prime the cut-ends of scarf joints with End Seal aerosol primer, or with two coats of premium timber primer before fixing. Allow to dry between coats.

11.0 Window and door openings

Note: The integrity of the junctions at the interface of the cladding and the window and door openings is a vital part of the weatherproofing system. Care must be taken to ensure that the work is carried out correctly and that all flashings, weatherings and air seals are in place.

Note: This specification applies to the use of aluminium windows and doors that are in accordance with E2/AS1 paragraph 9.1.10. Use of bi-fold, sliding or other non-hinged windows and doors and timber windows and doors must be submitted to the Building Consent Authority as an Alternative Solution to NZBC Clause E2/AS1.

11.1 Aluminium windows

Aluminium windows installed into a A-lign Con-cealed Fix timber cladding system solution must: • Comply with NZS 4211 for the relevant wind zone

or pressure.• Have a minimum 10mm flange covering the

weatherboard trim.• Incorporate scribers to the flange.• Include a sill tray under window mitres and

mullion junctions. Cavity fix requires window support bars for trim opening wider than 600mm. Refer to E2/AS1 – 9.1.10.5

• Have window trimmed openings constructed as shown in E2/AS1 with flexible flashing tapes and air seals.

• At the pointernal where Bevelback weatherboards overlap, the overall thickness of the two boards is a tight measurement of 32mm. When calculating jamb width, allow plus 34mm and 19mm for the cavity batten.

11.2 Timber windows Note: Timber windows within a weatherboard cladding are not covered by E2/AS1 and must be consented by a BCA as an Alternative Solution.

Timber windows installed into a A-lign Concealed Fix timber cladding system solution must:

• Have profiles in accordance with NZS 3610.• Incorporate facings and scribers.• Incorporate full width sill tray flashings. • Have window trimmed openings constructed

as shown in E2/AS1 with flexible flashing tapes and air seals.

11.3 FlashingsFlashing material and fabrication in accordance with section 6.0 of this specification.

Head flashings must have:

• 10mm stop-ends.• 15˚ cross fall.• 10mm min cover to the window flange.• 50mm min back upstand to give 35mm min

cladding cover.• Fit head flashings to all windows. Stop-ends to

finish at back of cladding. • Sill flashings must have:• 8mm min upstand.

• A 5˚ cross fall.• 35mm cladding cover at front downturn.• 20mm stop-ends.

11.4 A-lign facingsFit A-lign grooved facings with a minimum of 50mm cover over the weatherboards and fix with two, 50 x 2.50mm hot dipped galvanised jolt head nails.

Locate the fixings above the lap of the weatherboard at:

• 440mm centres for 142mm weatherboards (4 laps).• 465mm centres for 187mm weatherboards (3 laps).Fit A-lign pre-cut 18mm scriber over the weatherboards, tight against the facing and fix through pre-drilled holes with 60 x 2.80mm hot dipped galvanised jolt head nails at centres as above.

11.5 Air seals On completion fit air seals around all window and door openings as specified.

12.0 Painting A-lign Concealed Fix

12.1 MaterialsA premium factory applied primer and undercoat has been applied in two separate coats. Site prime all bare timber surfaces and cut-ends with End Seal aerosol primer before fixing. Allow to dry between coats. Finishing coats: 100% premium acrylic house painternal (insert specific manufacturers product) as specified in Parts 7, 8, 9 and 10 of AS 3730.

12.2 Painting Note: Resin bleed may occur from timber in hot conditions or where painted in dark colours. Adherence to the above specification will help minimise the problem.

Note: Primers cannot withstand exposure to weather for extended periods.

Note: Using light colours lessens the chance of distortion by reducing solar heat build up in the weatherboards.

Carry out all painting work in accordance with the appropriate clauses of AS/NZS 2311 Guide to Painting of Buildings.

Finishing coats to be applied after installation of the exterior sheathing, joinery and trim.

Prior to applying finishing coats ensure no moisture related dimensional swelling is evident by measuring profiles against original profile sizes. If swelling is present, delay finish coating until the timber profiles have returned to their original machined sizes.

Fill all nail holes with an exterior grade filler, sand to a smooth surface and spot-prime filled areas and wherever the coating is damaged.

Apply two full coats of 100% premium acrylic house painternal with a gloss level of 10% and a Light Reflective Value of 45% or greater (ASTM C1549 or ASTM E903).

13.0 General information

13.1 HandlingStore the product where it is dry and kept off the ground using bearers. If stored outside use a secondary waterproof cover but allow for good air circulation. When handling, t ake care to avoid any damage to surfaces.

13.2 InstallationAvoid scratching or marking of the board during cutting and installation. Prime the cut-ends of scarf joints with End Seal aerosol primer, or with two coats of premium timber primer before fixing. Allow to dry between coats.

13.3 FinishingRemove all loose material, dirt etc. Spot prime exposed bare timber with selected premium timber primer, putty all nail holes, use a filler and sealants nominated as exterior type suitable for overcoating with 100% acrylic paint. Apply two coats of 100% premium acrylic house painternal as per instructions on the container.

13.4 MoistureTannin extracts (dark stains in the film) are a result of the board being allowed to get wet. This is neither a board nor painternal issue as it is a result of excessive moisture, which infiltrates the board through not following these guidelines. After installation of the board it is recommended that the painter be allowed to complete the finishing work as soon as practical. Refer to 12.2 Painting.

13.5 Heat generating coloursDark colours absorb heat from the sun. Light colours reflect significantly more heat. Testing has shown that dark colours can generate temperatures in excess of 85°C in direct sunlight, whereas light colours under the same conditions can be as much as 35°C cooler. It is recommended that the chosen colour therefore has a Light Reflective Value greater than 45% (LRV of white is 95/100, LRV Black is 0).

14.0 Building maintenance

14.1 New constructionBuilding movement and settlement is inevitable. Painternal coatings are affected by this occurrence whether it be concrete or timber substrate. It is important to deal immediately with new issues that are as a result of substrate movement in the case of timber it is movement of the board. Make good these areas by priming and then touching up with the original, topcoat paint.

14.2 Regular washingExterior building surfaces benefit from being cleaned regularly. This is particularly important under eaves and overhangs. Mould, fungi and marine salts can have a detrimental effect on the painternal coating and the substrate if left. Arrange to lightly wash all surfaces at least annually. This is particularly important in a marine environment.

14.3 Maintenance paintingWhen required use a premium primer and undercoat, followed by the topcoat originally selected. In some circumstances where maintenance is delayed for many months it may be required to make good the repair area and then fully coat the whole section because of the change in the appearance of the coatings. Loss of gloss, colour change, etc. is normal for paint.

Mostly walls facing north will be subject to this requirement, particularly if maintenance is delayed.

It is however, beneficial for both the painternal film and the substrate to apply another coat. This maintenance should be viewed as a positive outcome for both the paint, the substrate and your investment in the home/building.

Building movement normally reduces over time. Experience has shown that areas that have been subject to maintenance in the main do not require further repairs providing the substrate is not subjected to continual movement.

As part of your maintenance, always check flashings, sealants and fastenings to ensure they do not permit the passage of water into the substrate. Left unchecked, water entry into the substrate can cause substantial damage which can become expensive to remedy.

Follow these instructions to ensure that your investment in A-lign Concealed Fix natural solid timber products will stand the test of time.
