Abstract

Construction such as brick veneer and cavity masonry, which utilize the open rain screen principle, offer the most effective means of controlling rain leakage. Walls of solid masonry are more vulnerable to rain penetration and require care in the selection of materials and a high standard of workmanship if acceptable results are to be obtained.
