Looking for Fiber Cement Siding in the Materials Database

Post by Hayden Robinson »

In the North American Database, is "cement board" fiber cement siding? "Fiber cement sheathing board"?

Thank you for any help!

Dear Hayden,

all I can tell you is that the comment provided for this material in ASHRAE Report 1018-RP is

"All test specimens used for the measurements reported here are prepared from two boards, 4' x 8', of a commercial product with a nominal thickness of 1/2". The product is used as an exterior sheathing member in EIFS walls."

Regards,
Thomas
