4.0 FASTENERS AND FASTENING OPTIONS
GreenGuard® Building Wraps are mechanically attached either through structural sheathing
board or insulation board to underlying vertical framing members or directly to framing
members. For installation of GreenGuard® Building Wraps in residential or light commercial
building applications involving installation on structures that are less than 40 feet (5

Note: When attaching wall ties for anchoring masonry exterior claddings, first install a patch
of GreenGuard® Flashing at the penetration site before installing the wall tie. The patch
should be of a size adequate to seal only the penetration points.
