Benefits of technology

[0010] Another embodiment of the present invention comprises a screed joint that has a first attachment flange and a second base flange that is spaced from the first attachment flange. A first screed wall extends from the first attachment flange at a first obtuse angle and has a distal end that is spaced from the first attachment flange. A second screed wall extends from the second base wall and has a proximal end and a dista

Problems solved by technology

Prior weep screed arrangements are ill-suited for applications wherein a second thickness of the stucco or plaster material is to be applied to the foundation itself.

Abstract

Screed joints for use in plastering and stucco applications. Various embodiments of screed joints for forming screed walls for different thicknesses of plaster materials applied to adjoining walls or other structures are disclosed. The walls or other structures may be of similar or dissimilar constructions.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The invention relates to trim members used in connection with the application of stucco and other wall coating materials to the exteriors of buildings and building foundations and, more particularly, to screed joints which facilitate the application of different thicknesses of stucco, plaster or similar materials to building walls. [0003] 2. Description of the Invention Background [0004] Plaster, cement and stucco-type building materials have been employed in the construction of walls for residential and commercial buildings for many years to achieve a variety of different designs and wall textures. Various methods and application techniques exist for applying such materials to walls and other structures. One such method that is commonly employed involves attaching lath material to a wall frame constructed from wood or metal studs. The lath material serves to stabilize the plaster while it is in its flowable state p...
