Exterior insulated finish wall assembly
An exterior insulated finish wall assembly includes an exterior panel member and an insert member. The exterior panel member includes a rigid insulative substrate having a body portion and a tail portion extending from the body portion, wherein a recess is defined by a sloped surface and a back surface of the tail portion. The insert member is disposed within the recess and is sized and shaped to correspond to the recess. A drainage channel is defined between the sloped and back surfaces of the tail portion and the insert member.
1. An exterior insulated finish wall assembly comprising:
an exterior panel member comprising a rigid insulative substrate, the rigid insulative substrate comprising a body portion including a bottom surface and a tail portion extending from the bottom surface of the body portion and including a back surface, wherein the bottom surface of the body portion and the back surface of the tail portion define a recess;
an insert member disposed within the recess; and
a drainage channel defined between the bottom surface of the body portion, the back surface of the tail portion, and the insert member, wherein the drainage channel extends to a bottom side of the insert member.
2. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein an upper surface of the insert member is sloped to define a sloped portion of the drainage channel.
3. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein a width of the body portion is substantially equal to a combined width of the tail portion and the insert member.
4. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein a bottom surface of the insert member is substantially aligned with a bottom edge of the tail portion when assembled.
5. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the back surface of the tail portion is parallel to and offset from a back surface of the body portion.
6. The assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a flashing disposed within the drainage channel between the exterior wall panel and the insert member.
7. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein a front face of the insert member is disposed along the back surface of the tail portion.
8. The assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a base coat disposed on each of a front face, a back face, and a top face of the insert member.
9. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the insert member comprises a rigid substrate.
10. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the insert member comprises a rigid insulative substrate.
11. The assembly of claim 2 , wherein the sloped portion of the drainage channel extends from a back surface of the body portion to the back surface of the tail portion.
12. An exterior wall panel system comprising:
a frame;
a substrate layer disposed along an exterior side of the frame; and
an exterior insulated finish wall assembly disposed along an exterior side of the substrate layer, the exterior insulated finish wall assembly comprising:
an exterior wall panel comprising a rigid insulative substrate and having a body portion including a bottom surface and a tail portion extending from the bottom surface of the body portion and including a back surface, wherein the bottom surface of the body portion and the back surface of the tail portion define a recess between the tail portion and the substrate layer;
an insert member disposed within the recess between the tail portion of the exterior wall panel and the substrate layer; and
a drainage channel defined between the bottom surface of the body portion, the back surface of the tail portion, and the insert member, wherein the drainage channel extends to a bottom side of the insert member.
13. The system of claim 12 , further comprising a base coat selectively applied to the tail portion and the insert member.
14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the base coat comprises a reinforcing mesh.
15. The system of claim 13 , wherein the base coat is selectively disposed on the exterior wall panel and the insert member along the drainage channel.
16. The system of claim 13 , further comprising a second coating disposed along the front surface.
17. The system of claim 12 , further comprising a sealant disposed along a bottom of the insert member, wherein the drainage channel terminates exterior of the sealant.
18. The system of claim 12 , wherein the exterior insulated finish wall assembly further comprises a flashing disposed within the drainage channel between the exterior wall panel and the insert member.
19. The system of claim 12 , wherein the insert member comprises a rigid substrate.
20. The system of claim 12 , wherein the insert member comprises a rigid insulative substrate.
