Description
TITLE
WALL SIDING MODULE AND SYSTEM
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present disclosure generally relates to wall structures for buildings such as houses and the like. More particularly, but not exclusively, the present disclosure relates to a wall siding module and system.
BACKGROUND
[0003] Siding is the protective material attached to the exterior side of a wall of a building. Along with the roof, it forms the first line of defense against the elements. The siding material and style also can enhance the aesthetics of the building. Walls that are internally framed must always be sided. Most siding consists of pieces of weather-resistant material that are smaller than the wall they cover, to allow for expansion and contraction of the materials due to moisture and temperature changes. Sidings can be made of plastic, metal, masonry, wood and other desired materials. Sidings are usually difficult to install and once installed, usually must be completely removed when there is a damage on a portion thereof.
OBJECTS
[0004] An object of the present disclosure is to provide a wall siding system.
[0005] An object of the present disclosure is to provide a wall siding.
[0006] An object of the present disclosure is to provide a wall siding kit.
