Product description

The wall siding panels and corners are made of injection-molded, press-formed polypropylene and are fastened to the building structure with corrosion-resistant fasteners every 200 mm (8 in.) through pre-punched nailing slots located along the top edge of the panel, which are concealed once the upper panel is installed. The products and associated profiles evaluated under CCMC 13429-R are shown in Table 1. The products have a nail hem wall thickness of between 2 mm and 2.3 mm.

Figure 1 and Figure 2 illustrate TANDOSTONE^® COMPOSITE STONE Stacked Stone and BEACH HOUSE SHAKE^® COMPOSITE SHINGLE respectively, as examples of the profiles.

Notes

Footnote 1

The wind load resistance test was performed on a backup wall consisting of 38 mm × 89 mm wood studs and 11.1 mm oriented strandboard (OSB) sheathing. The spacing between each stud section was 406 mm o.c. The 19 mm × 38 mm wood furring strips were installed at 203 mm o.c. spacing and fastened using 6d common nails. Each siding panel was installed using 38 mm galvanized smooth-shank nails at 203 mm o.c. on furring strips.

Footnote 2

This table is intended for non-post-disaster low-rise buildings that have a height from grade to the uppermost roof of 12 m or less, and that are located within a built-up area no less than 120 m away from the boundary between this area and open terrain, including bodies of water upwind of the building.

Footnote 3

This table does not take into account the site-specific topographic factor, Ct, where Ct = 1.0, except for buildings that are constructed on hills or escarpments with a slope defined in Article 4.1.7.4., Topographic Factor, of Division B of the NBC 2015. For buildings constructed on hills and escarpments, anticipated wind pressures may be greater.

Notes

Footnote 1

The wind load resistance test was performed on a backup wall consisting of 38 mm × 89 mm wood studs and 11.9-mm plywood sheathing. The spacing between each stud section was 406 mm o.c. The 19 mm × 38 mm wood furring strips were installed at 203 mm o.c. spacing and fastened using 6d common nails. Each siding panel was installed using 50.8-mm galvanized smooth-shank nails at 203 mm o.c. on furring strips.

Code Compliance via Alternative Solutions

Where a design differs from the acceptable solutions in Division B, then it should be treated as an "alternative solution." A proponent of an alternative solution must demonstrate that the alternative solution addresses the same issues as the applicable acceptable solutions in Division B and their attributed objectives and functional statements. However, because the objectives and functional statements are entirely qualitative, demonstrating compliance with them in isolation is not possible. Therefore, Clause 1.2.1.1.(1)(b) identifies the principle that Division B establishes the quantitative performance targets that alternative solutions must meet. In many cases, these targets are not defined very precisely by the acceptable solutions [...] Nevertheless, Clause 1.2.1.1.(1)(b) makes it clear that an effort must be made to demonstrate that an alternative solution will perform as well as a design that would satisfy the applicable acceptable solutions in Division B—not “well enough” but “as well as.”

National Building Code of Canada, Sentence A-1.2.1.1.(1)(b)

The CCMC has determined that compliance with this provision of the Code has been demonstrated as an Alternative Solution. The evaluation report provides a summary of the basis of CCMC's compliance opinion.

CCMC's code compliance opinions

All CCMC evaluation reports are opinions of code compliance established in accordance with the National Building Code of Canada, Subsection 1.2.1. "Compliance with this Code," which requires compliance to be achieved by:

complying with the applicable acceptable solutions in Division B, or
using an alternative solution that will achieve at least the minimum level of performance required by Division B in the areas defined by the objective and functional statements attributed to the applicable acceptable solutions.

The CCMC assesses compliance with Canadian building, energy and safety codes, and is trusted by over 6,000 regulators across Canada.
