Abstract:
This invention comprises a wall or roof sheathing with purposefully overlapping barriers along at least one lateral edge, preferably along two adjacent lateral edges and, most preferably, along all four lateral sides to a given sheet product hereunder. This system has moisture permeability and results in an improved installation method. The system comprises both structural and nonstructural panels, either insulated or non-insulated, in the form of wall and/or roof sheeting.

Claim (Index 18):
A method for making a construction wall panel system more water resistant and less wasteful, said construction wall panel system including a plurality of rectangular base sheet materials, said method comprising:\n (a) providing each of said plurality of rectangular base sheet materials of the construction wall panel system with a water barrier layer that overlaps all four lateral edges of the rectangular base sheet material, said water barrier layer being adhered to the rectangular base sheet material and designed to fully cover each horizontal and each vertical lateral edge of adjacent rectangular base sheet materials during installation of the construction wall panel system; and (b) adhering at least some section of the overlapping water barrier layer of the rectangular base material to all lateral edges of the adjacent rectangular base materials.
