Protection of Materials5.1 Do not store in any location or in an
21、y manner where thetemperature of the siding, soffit or accessories is likely toexceed 130F (54C).5.2 Store the cartons on a flat surface and support the entirelength of the cartons.5.3 Store the cartons away from areas where falling objectsor other construction activity could impact the cartons. Kee
22、pthe cartons dry.5.4 Do not store the cartons in stacks more than 12 boxeshigh.6. Environmental Conditions6.1 Vinyl siding and accessories will expand when heatedand contract when cooled. If siding is installed in hot weatherand the siding is very warm it will be partially “expanded.”Provide allowan
23、ce for more future “contraction” than expan-sion.6.2 Leave14 in. (6.4 mm) clearance between the ends ofpanels and trim and any receiver such as J-channels and cornerposts to allow for thermal expansion. If installing duringweather colder than 40F (4.4C), increase the minimumclearance to38 in. (9.5 m
24、m) to allow for additional expansionduring warmer weather.7.

28、color variation usematerial from a single manufacturers lot number for application to onebuilding.8. Substrate, Surface Preparation8.1 Weather-resistant BarrierVinyl siding must be in-stalled over a weather-resistant barrier system that includes (1)a continuous weather-resistant material, and (2) pr
29、operly inte-grated flashing around all penetrations and where vinyl sidinginterfaces with other building products. Refer to the vinylFIG. 3 Typical Siding ProfilesFIG. 4 Typical Soffit ProfilesD4756063siding manufacturers installation instructions and the mini-mum requirements of the local building
30、code for specificproduct applications and requirements.8.2 All caulking to prevent moisture penetration must bedone before siding application. Do not use caulk where it couldrestrict the normal expansion of the vinyl siding.8.3 Apply vinyl siding over sheathing or other solid surfacethat provides a
31、smooth, flat surface. Do not apply vinyl sidingdirectly to studs without sheathing. If permitted by the vinylsiding manufacturer, a contoured foam underlayment fitted forthe specific style of vinyl siding is permitted to be utilized.Apply over wood furring strips when the underlying surface isuneven
32、.8.4 Drive fasteners into framing or furring. Driving offasteners directly into sheathing or existing siding is permittedin accordance with the siding manufacturers instructions,where substantiated by windload testing conducted in accor-dance with Specification D 3679.8.5 On existing structures, sec
33、ure any loose boards, replaceany rotted ones, recaulk around windows, doors, and otherareas as necessary to protect from moisture penetration prior tothe installation of siding or accessories. Use furring as neededto create an even surface.8.6 FlashingRefer to Practice E2112for installation offlashi
34、ng around windows, doors, penetrations and points ofinterface between the vinyl siding and other building compo-nents. If available, also refer to the instructions provided by themanufacturer of the window, door, or other object that willpenetrate the siding.8.7 FurringMasonry and uneven surfaces, a
35、s examples,require wood furring strips nominal 1 by 2 in. (25.4 by 50.8mm) applied vertically and typically spaced 16 in. (406 mm)on center for horizontal siding and applied horizontally andtypically spaced 12 in. (305 mm) on center for vertical siding.9. Application of Horizontal Siding9.1 General
36、RequirementsVinyl siding and accessoriesexpand and contract as much as12 in. (12.7 mm) over a 12 ft(3.65 m) length with changes in temperature. For this reasonadhere to the following provisions:9.1.1 When applied, vinyl siding products must be attached“loosely,” leaving approximately a132-in. (0.8-m
37、m) spacebetween the vinyl and the fastener head or crown to permitthermal movement. (See Fig. 6.)9.1.2 Center fasteners in slots of siding and accessories topermit possible expansion and contraction. (See Fig. 7.)9.1.3 Do not face nail siding panels. (See Fig. 8.)9.1.4 Allow clearance at panel ends
38、for thermal expansionbetween corner posts, J-channels, and other receivers inaccordance with 6.2.9.2 Installation of AccessoriesAccessories, includingstarter strips, corner posts and door/window trim, are installedprior to application of the siding, adhering to the provisions of9.1 and those which f
39、ollow.9.2.1 Starter StripDetermine the lowest point along thearea to receive siding and install starter strips located so thatthe bottom edge of the initial course of siding will be on a levelline and typically approximately14 in. (6.4 mm) below thatpoint. Allow space for corner posts, J-channels, e
40、tc., and keepends of starter strips14 to12 in. (6.4 to 12.7 mm) apart. Spacefasteners not more than 10 in. (254 mm) apart, centered in nailslots.9.2.2 Corner PostsOutside and inside corner posts willstart14 in. (6.4 mm) below the top, and end34 in. (19.1 mm)below the bottom edge of the first course
41、of siding which willbe installed later. Attach each leg of the corner posts withfasteners, spaced not over 12 in (305 mm) apart centered innailing slots except the top fastener that is located at the upperend of a nailing slot.9.2.2.1 If more than one length of corner post is required,lap the upper
42、piece over the lower piece by cutting away 1 in.(25.4 mm) of the nailing flange on the top piece. Lap34 in. (19mm) allowing14 in. (6.4 mm) for expansion. (See Fig. 9.)9.2.2.2 As an alternative for inside corners, install twoJ-channels with the web of one abutting the adjacent wall andthe web of the
43、other J-channel abutting the shorter outer flangeof the first J-channel. Attach as specified in 9.1.1.9.2.3 Door/Window Trim:9.2.3.1 Install flashing around windows and doors in accor-dance with 8.1 and 8.6 before installing trim.9.2.3.2 J-channel is installed on each side and the top ofdoor and win
44、dow frames, and under window sills. Alwaysinstall the bottom J-channel first, followed by the side chan-nels, and then the top channel.FIG. 5 Typical Siding AccessoriesFIG. 6 Attachment of Vinyl SidingD47560649.2.3.3 Extend the bottom and top J-channel the length ofthe window frame plus the width of
45、 the visible face of the sideJ-channels (typically34 in. (19 mm) on each side. Extend theside J-channels the height of the window or door frame plus thewidth of the visible face of the top and bottom J-channels.9.2.3.4 In the bottom J-channel, cut a notch in the web ateach end the width of the visib
46、le face of the side J-channel. Inboth side J-channels, cut a notch at the top end and a tab at thebottom end. Miter the bottom ends of the visible face of theside J-channels at a 45 degree angle. In the top J-channel cutalong the bends at both ends of the J-channel to create a tab thesame length as
47、the exposed face of the side J-channel. Miter theend of the visible face of both ends of the top J-channel at a 45degree angle.9.2.3.5 Install the bottom J-channel. Install each of the sideJ-channels, with the mitered visible face over the face of thebottom J-channel. Bend the tabs in the side J-cha
48、nnels into thebottom J-channel. (See Fig. 10.)9.2.3.6 Install optional head flashing across the top of thewindow or door frame. Install the top J-channel with themitered face over the face of the side J-channels. Bend the tabsin the top J-channel into the side J-channels. (See Fig. 11.)9.3 Siding Pa
49、nel Installation:9.3.1 General ConsiderationsTo make overlapped sidingjoints less noticeable on the sides of a building, start at the rearcorner and install toward the front. On the front and rear ofbuildings start at the corners and install toward the entrancedoor. Avoid use of short panel lengths under 24 in. (610 mm).(See Fig. 13.) When lapping, place factory-cut ends of panelson top of field-cut ends for best appearance.9.3.2 Engage the bottom of the first panel and the starterstrip. If backerboard insulati
