PROJECT DESCRIPTION
VaproShield REVEALSHIELD™ was installed on the 5-story Woodward Gardens Apartment Complex in Detroit, Michigan. After meeting with the architect and general contractor to discuss open joint exterior cladding systems, the decision was made to go with the “REVEALSHIELD™ System.” The REVEALSHIELD™ System consists of VaproLiqui-Flash, an easy-to-install, fast curing, permeable hybrid fluid flashing for window and door openings, and pre-cut (11 ¾”) RevealFlashing rolls. Utilized together the REVEALSHIELD™ system reduces labor costs and minimizes liability.
The 61 apartments are expected to reach completion September 2013.
REVEALSHIELD™ offers:
Use with Open Joint Cladding Systems
UV Stable according to AC 38, Section 4.1.2
Single Layer Installation
Integrated Tape at Horizontal Seams
Use with joints up to 2" wide
Maximum 40% total open wall area
