TERMINATION FOR BUILDING STRUCTURES
A termination assembly comprises a termination member and a drainage assembly. The termination member includes a base interconnecting a connecting flange and a supporting flange, and the base is configured and arranged to receive a portion of a wall between the connecting flange and the supporting flange. The drainage assembly includes a drainage member operatively connected to the base, and the drainage member creates a void to facilitate drainage and ventilation.
1 . A termination assembly, comprising:
a termination member including a base interconnecting a connecting flange and a supporting flange, the base including a surface configured and arranged to support a portion of a wall between the connecting flange and the supporting flange;
a drainage assembly including a drainage member operatively connected to the surface of the base, the drainage member forming alternating outwardly and inwardly extending portions creating parallel outer and inner channels to facilitate drainage and ventilation between the portion of the wall and the base when the portion of the wall is positioned on the drainage assembly and supported by the surface of the base.
2 . The termination assembly of claim 1 , wherein the termination member is made of metal.
3 . The termination assembly of claim 1 , wherein the termination member includes drainage apertures.
4 . The termination assembly of claim 3 , wherein the base is sloped to direct moisture toward the drainage apertures.
5 . The termination assembly of claim 3 , wherein the drainage apertures are positioned on the base proximate the connecting flange.
6 . The termination assembly of claim 5 , wherein the channels created by the drainage member include lateral channels configured and arranged to direct moisture toward the drainage apertures.
7 . The termination assembly of claim 3 , wherein the drainage apertures are positioned on the base proximate the supporting flange.
8 . The termination assembly of claim 7 , wherein the channels created by the drainage member include lateral channels configured and arranged to direct moisture toward the drainage apertures.
9 . The termination assembly of claim 1 , wherein the drainage member is made of corrugated spunbond or screen material.
10 . The termination assembly of claim 1 , the drainage assembly further comprising a filter member, the drainage member interconnecting the base and the filter member.
11 . The termination assembly of claim 10 , wherein the drainage member is made of corrugated spunbond or screen material and the filter member is made of spunbond.
12 . The termination assembly of claim 1 , wherein the channels created by the drainage member includes longitudinal channels configured and arranged to direct moisture toward a distal end of the termination member.
13 . The termination assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a receiving termination member configured and arranged to receive the termination member, wherein the termination member is positioned to slope relative to the receiving termination member, and wherein an exterior surface of the receiving termination member is configured and arranged to receive a portion of a veneer.
14 . The termination assembly of claim 1 , wherein the outer channels are proximate the portion of the wall and the inner channels are proximate the surface of the base when the portion of the wall is positioned on the drainage assembly and supported by the surface of the base.
15 . A termination assembly, comprising:
a termination member including a base interconnecting a connecting flange and a supporting flange, the base including a surface configured and arranged to receive a portion of a wall between the connecting flange and the supporting flange;
a drainage assembly including a drainage member operatively connected to the surface of the base and a filter member operatively connected to the drainage member, the drainage member including outwardly and inwardly extending portions creating parallel outer and inner channels to facilitate drainage and ventilation between the portion of the wall and the base when the portion of the wall is positioned on the drainage assembly and supported by the surface of the base.
16 . The termination assembly of claim 15 , wherein the filter member is operatively connected to the outwardly extending portion of the drainage member.
17 . The termination assembly of claim 15 , wherein the termination member includes drainage apertures positioned on the base proximate the connecting flange and the base is sloped to direct moisture toward the drainage apertures.
18 . The termination assembly of claim 17 , wherein the channels created by the drainage member includes lateral channels configured and arranged to direct moisture toward the drainage apertures.
19 . The termination assembly of claim 15 , wherein the termination member includes drainage apertures positioned on the base proximate the supporting flange and the base is sloped to direct moisture toward the drainage apertures.
20 . The termination assembly of claim 19 , wherein the channels created by the drainage member includes lateral channels configured and arranged to direct moisture toward the drainage apertures.
21 . The termination assembly of claim 15 , wherein the drainage member is made of corrugated spunbond or screen material and the filter member is made of spunbond.
22 . The termination assembly of claim 15 , wherein the channels created by the drainage member includes longitudinal channels configured and arranged to direct moisture toward a distal end of the termination member.
23 . The termination assembly of claim 15 , further comprising a receiving termination member configured and arranged to receive the termination member, wherein the termination member is positioned to slope relative to the receiving termination member, and wherein an exterior surface of the receiving termination member is configured and arranged to receive a portion of a veneer.
24 . The termination assembly of claim 15 , wherein the outer channels are proximate the portion of the wall and the inner channels are proximate the surface of the base when the portion of the wall is positioned on the drainage assembly and supported by the surface of the base.
