TILATH - DIAMOND
MESH OR SELF-FURRED LATH
Tilath is diamond mesh lath, regular or self-furred,
to which offset
asphalt saturated kraft building paper has been applied. The grade
D paper typically used is water-resistant, yet highly vapor permeable,
and meets federal specification UU-B-790a, type 1, grade D, style
2. Tilath reduces moisture penetration while allowing for the
dissipation of moisture vapor from within the structure. Foundation
weep screed at the bottom of all framed walls aids in the elimination
of moisture that might reach the surface of the building paper.
TILATH (1/8
INCH FLAT RIB)
1/8” Flat Rib Tilath is used primarily in horizontal
installations such as ceilings or open web construciton. This
is the same as Tilath except that 1/8” rib lath is used in
place of diamond mesh lath and is usually supplied with offset
paper. This product should not be considered to be self-furred.
Like Tilath, grade D paper is usually applied in the offset manner,
as detailed below.
