Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2011051818A2] The present invention relates to improved undercladding insulation and cladding support systems for wall structures. Existing methods for constructing walls with external insulation covered by cladding to improve the thermal efficiency are relatively complex in terms of separate steps, as well as components, and are also highly labour intensive. Furthermore, many of these systems fail to provide adequate support for the cladding which is then prone to 'sag' over time. The current invention provides an innovative unitary insulation based system as a solution to these problems by using a batten system that desirably has sufficient fastener holding strength to support an external cladding without the need to provide through fixtures to an underlying structural wall element when securing the cladding. Preferably the fastener retaining battens are made of a durable nailable material, such as lightweight nailable fibre cement, capable of independently holding fasteners that are securing an external cladding material.
