This is achieved with compliance to Clauses 9.4.1 and 9.4.1.1 of E2/AS1 and Clause 9.4.1.3 E2/ AS1 horizontal bevel back profiles and are as given in NZS 3617 or Branz Bulletin 411.

Installation requirements

Cedarscreen Bevel Back must only be installed by a registered Licenced Building Practitioner. Fixing methods shall be in accordance with Clause 9.4 E2/AS1. Ensure on-site provisions are appropriate allowing for good storage and working space. Ensure all timber products are free from sub-trade and climatic contamination during the building process. Weatherboards shall be fixed through the wall underlay to the framing in accordance with Table 24 E2/AS1. Fixings shall be hand driven. Weatherboards shall be pre-drilled prior to fixing with a single fixing to each fixing point. Laps shall be 32mm bevel back and 25mm for rebated bevel back boards with a minimum 2mm gap at the overlap between rebated boards. Locate nails 10mm above the lap. For fixing over a cavity use 85x3.2mm annular grooved nails, for direct fixing use 60x3.2mm annular grooved stainless steel 316 or silicon bronze nails. Bevel back weatherboards shall be fixed to framing at a maximum 600mm centres.

Maintenance requirements

Maintenance shall be carried out as necessary to achieve the required durability of materials, components and junctions. This is dependent on: • Type of cladding and components used. • Position of cladding and components on the building. • Geographical orientation/location • Manufacturer cleaning and recoating schedules. Annual inspection of the cladding material must be made to ensure that all aspects of the cladding system, including flashings and joints remain weatherproof. Any damaged areas or areas showing signs of deterioration, which could allow water ingress must be repaired immediately. Regular cleaning (at least annually) of the stain or WoodOil coating is required to remove dirt or grime and fungal growth. Dirt and grime may be removed with the use of a soft brush, warm water and a light detergent cleaner. Recoating with either a stain or WoodOil will be required throughout the life of the cladding system.
