Choosing the Right EIFS Washer

EIFS Mechanical Fasteners: Buyer Beware!
   

As with most products under consideration for purchase, confidence and trust are ultimately the key influencers in one's buying experience. And, choosing an EIFS fastening system is certainly no exception. One's choice should be made only after thorough investigation and research, as that buying decision certainly has significant performance implications on the entire wall assembly.

Although EIFS washers are very similar in appearance, they truly are far more than round pieces of plastic with voids and holes. Legitimate ones are designed, engineered and manufactured for specific applications and should never be substituted for because of price, availability, expedience or random decision. They are also made available by reputable companies, with proven track records of reliability. Remember, this inexpensive washer and screw combination performs an incredibly important task: to keep a beautiful finished wall system off of your lawn, vehicle, and/or visitors and securely attached to its substrate for the lifetime of your building.

EIFS - "The SlotZilla Project" 

 

"The SlotZilla project was a fun, problem-solving project from the very beginning," says Nelson, while giving W&Ca report from the job site. "When this project was brought to us, we were asked if we could help find a solution to skinning this giant slot machine structure with a suitable exterior building product that would simulate the sheet metal of a real slot machine."

The company worked with John Di Stefano, president of Decoplast/Greenmaker Ind.,  to develop a hybrid EIFS coating and an exterior paint. RDC contracted with the general contractor Kittrell Jensen to provide the exterior framing, sheathing, EIFS and paint to skin the structure.

"The project was unique in that they only wanted to use EPS on the decorative trims and bands," says Di Stefano. "I suggested the use of the Decoplast DDS System (Deco Direct System), which is a direct applied system. The unique thing about this system is that it utilizes a high build elastomeric basecoat which can be applied directly over exterior gypsum based sheathing."

Di Stefano says this was important to the project because the design-build team did not want to add any additional weight to the structure by utilizing a three-coat stucco system. "So we were able to give them a solution with one of our proprietary products GroundCoat, which only needs to be built to 3/8-inch and can be applied directly to the substrate," he says.
