Abstract
Description
- The invention relates to a flashing member for waterproofing corners of recessed windows and other rough openings in buildings such as doorway openings, ductwork passages, and other types of openings that can be found in houses and other building structures.
- In building construction, it is important to provide a water-tight seal around any rough openings in exterior walls, including windows and doors. One specific challenge in many buildings is sealing recessed windows. Recessed windows include an outer wall opening that is flush with the exterior of the building, and an inner, recessed framed opening, that lies in a plane behind that of the exterior. Generally, the inner framed opening has a height and width less than that of the outer framed opening. When the window is finally installed, it lies within the inner framed opening.
- The corners of recessed windows are particularly difficult to flash and seal adequately.
US Patent Publication Number 2005/0055890A discloses a corner flashing system for sealing the corners of recessed window frames against moisture penetration. The system comprises double-flap members, a half-cube member, and caulking. The double-flap members and the half-cube member are preferably made of asphalt or petroleum based material.U.S. Patent No. 6,401,402 also discloses a flashing system and method for controlling water and air intrusion around windows such as recessed windows, utilizing flashing material creased and folded to form a corner flashing component. However, both of these flashing systems includes seams and gaps through which water can infiltrate, and both systems rely on piercing fasteners to install the flashing, such as staples, providing further opportunity for water to infiltrate. - Further relevant prior art is disclosed in
WO2007/098016 A1 andUS 2006 /008 3898A1 . - Therefore, there is a need for a corner flashing system that is well adapted to installation in recessed window frames.
- In one aspect this invention is directed to a method for flashing recessed corners in a building comprising:
- providing a strip of flashing material comprising an elastic, conformable, flexible water resistant topsheet having an extension of at least about 150% at an applied stress no greater than 10 N/cm, a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer covering one surface of said topsheet having an equivalent extension as the top sheet at an equivalent applied stress; and a release sheet removably attached to said adhesive layer having a cross direction perforation dividing the release sheet into two major portions and a machine direction perforation dividing the release sheet into an edge portion and a bulk portion; removing a triangular portion of said release sheet wherein the triangular portion is in the shape of an isosceles triangle bisected by the cross direction perforation of said release sheet, wherein the triangle has a 90° angle at the intersection of the machine direction perforation and the cross direction perforation and to 45° angles along the edge of said edge portion of said release sheet, thereby exposing a triangular portion of said adhesive layer; folding said flashing material along said cross direction perforation, thereby attaching the exposed adhesive layers on opposite sides of the fold line such that the exposed adhesive layers make continuous contact; folding said flashing material along said cross direction perforation to form a right angle between the top sheet surfaces and folding said flashing material along said machine direction perforation to form a right angle between the top sheet surfaces, thereby forming the corner-shaped flashing member; removing the remaining release sheet from said corner-shaped flashing member to expose the remaining adhesive layer; and
- attaching said exposed remaining adhesive layer to the recessed corner surfaces, thereby affixing the corner-shaped flashing member in an installation position.
- In another aspect, the invention is also directed to a flashing member according to claim 4, corner in a building opening.

Fig. 1 illustrates acorner flashing member 10 according to the invention. Flashingmaterial 12 has four faces in three planes, 10a, 10a' (it is noted that 10a and 10a' are coplanar), 10b and 10c, where the three planes are at right angles to each other in the shape of a recessed corner. The three planes share threecommon edges corner flashing member 10 is free of seams or holes through which water could infiltrate behind the flashing. The flashingmaterial 12 is elastic, conformable and flexible such that it can not only fit into the recessed corner of a recessed windows, but it may also be extended ant wrapped around theexterior wall 28 . The length of the flashingmaterial 12 on either side of the corner is at least about 1 inch, and is typically about 6 inches. -
Fig. 2 illustrates a cross section of the flashingmaterial 12. Flashingmaterial 12 has atopsheet 14, a pressure sensitiveadhesive layer 16 on one surface of the tosheet 14 and arelease sheet 18 removably attached to saidadhesive layer 16. Thetop sheet 14 is an elastic, conformable and flexible material. Suitable materials for use as thetop sheet 14 include elastic polymer films, elastic woven fabrics, elastic nonwovens, elastic knit fabrics, and laminates thereof. Thetop sheet 14 has an extension of at least 150% when exposed to an applied stress no greater than 10 N/cm. Preferably, for durability thetop sheet 14 has tensile strength of greater than 1000 N/m when measured according to ASTM D1682, section 19. - The
adhesive layer 16 is an elastic, conformable and flexible adhesive. Suitable adhesives include materials conventionally used in the waterproofing art, such as rubber-modified asphaltic or butyl adhesive. Theadhesive layer 16 extends an equivalent amount as thetop sheet 14 when exposed to an equivalent level of stress. The average thickness of theadhesive layer 16 can be 5-100 mils (i.e. 0,127-2,54 mm). The minimum thickness of theadhesive layer 16 depends on what is needed to provide good adhesion and, optionally, if desired, nail sealability given the adhesive composition used. For instance, a 10-60 mils (i.e. 0,254-1,524 mm) thick layer of butyl adhesive has been found to be sufficient. - The
release sheet 18 can be any known material suitable for use as a release liner on rubberized asphalt and butyl adhesive. - An inventive method for forming the
corner flashing member 10 will now be described. A discrete section of an elongated strip of flashingmaterial 12 is provided.Fig. 3 illustrates the pattern of perforations in therelease sheet 18. For eachcorner flashing member 10,perforations 18e extending in the cross direction divide therelease sheet 18 into two roughly equal major portions along the machine direction andperforations 18f extending in the machine direction divide therelease sheet 18 into two unequal portions along the cross direction, a narrower edge portion 18a and awider bulk portion 18b. A plurality ofcorner flashing members 10 can be formed from an elongated strip of flashingmaterial 12. Acut line 18d represents where a cut is made in the flashingmaterial 12 in order to divide the elongated strip of the flashingmaterial 12 into individual sections of the flashingmaterial 12 each forming a singlecorner flashing member 10. - A
triangular portion 18c of therelease sheet 18 is removed from the flashingmaterial 12, thereby exposing atriangular portion 18c of the underlyingadhesive layer 16. The triangle is defined by the perforations in therelease sheet 18 and the edge of the strip of flashingmaterial 12. The tip of the triangle is located at the intersection of themachine direction perforation 18f and thecross direction perforation 18e, where the triangle has a 90° angle, and the base of the triangle is the edge of the strip where the triangle has two 45° angles. Thetriangular portion 18c is bisected by thecross direction perforation 18e. For embodiments in which thetriangular portion 18c of therelease sheet 18 is removed at the building site just prior to installation, thetriangular portion 18c of therelease sheet 18 can be perforated for removal at the building site; alternatively thetriangular portion 18c can be scored and removed using a knife or box cutter.. - The strip of flashing
material 12 is folded along thecross direction perforation 18e, thereby attaching the exposedadhesive layers 16 on opposite sides of the fold line such that the exposedadhesive layers 16 make continuous contact. The resulting adhesive-to-adhesive layer effectively becomes one continuous adhesive layer with no space between the originaladhesive layers 16. This provides no seam or hole for water to infiltrate. When the flashingmaterial 12 is folded, the resulting adhesive-to-adhesive layer forms a strong, durable dog-eared seal 20 as shown inFig. 1 . In bothFigs. 1 and4 , thecorner flashing member 10 is depicted in a right hand corner, however theflashing material 12 can be folded such that thecorner flashing member 10 fits into either a right hand corner or a left hand corner. - It is common in some recessed windows to install a second framing member within the framing member in which the window is installed. In order to accommodate this type of construction, the edge portion of the
release sheet 18 of the flashingmaterial 12 is made wider in order to cover the nailing fin of the window. Multiple perforations can be made in the machine direction on the flashingmaterial 12 in anticipation that the corner flashing numbers could be used on multiple types of window construction. - Once the
seal 20 is formed, the flashingmaterial 12 is folded along thecross direction perforation 18e in the direction opposite the direction it was folded to form theseal 20, to form a right angle between topsheet surfaces. The flashingmaterial 12 is also folded along themachine direction perforation 18f to form a right angle between topsheet surfaces, such that the corner-shapedflashing member 10 is formed. - The method for forming the flashing
member 10 can be carried out at the time of installation starting with a strip of flashingmaterial 12. Alternatively, thecorner members 10 can be preformed and delivered to the building site for subsequent installation. According to one preferred embodiment, a length of flashingmaterial 12 having the above described pattern of perforations in therelease sheet 18 is formed and thetriangular portions 18c of therelease sheet 18 are removed to expose the underlying butyl adhesive. The length of flashingmaterial 12 is then folded in a "fanfold" manner such that the material is folded in alternating directions at eachcross direction perforation 18e, and such that the exposed butyl adhesive is folded on itself to form theseal 20. The thus folded material can be packaged for delivery to installation sites. At the installation site, the installer can complete the formation of thecorner member 10 just prior to installation, by cutting alongperforation 18d to form individualcorner flashing members 10 which are folded onto themselves, and subsequently inverting or turning the corner "inside out" to form the shape of a right angle corner for installation. - In order to install the
corner flashing member 10, therelease sheet 18 is removed from the outer surfaces of the flashingmember 10 to expose theadhesive layer 16 on the outer surfaces. The exposed adhesive can then be attached directly to the interior surfaces of the recessed window, thereby affixing the flashingmember 10 an installation position, as illustrated inFig. 4 . In order to ensure that thecorner flashing member 10 is affixed securely in the corner of the window, preferably only one piece of therelease sheet 18 is removed at a time, so that thecorner flashing member 10 can be first affixed to the framing members 22 forming the window opening. Once the flashingmember 10 is adhered to the framing members 22 and/or nailing fin of the windows, the remaining pieces ofrelease sheet 18 are removed, so that thecorner flashing member 10 can be affixed to recessedsill 24 and window jamb 26 surfaces. As can be seen fromFig. 3 , the flashingmaterial 12 can also be extended and wrapped around the corner of the recessedsill 24 and window jamb surfaces 26 to cover a portion of theexterior wall 28. Typically, fasteners F such as nails or staples are installed through the flashingmaterial 12 to secure it to theexterior wall 28. Also typically, the flashingmaterial 12 on theexterior wall 28 extends at least 2 inches (i.e. 50,8 mm) from the recessedsill 24 and jamb 26 surfaces of the recessed window opening. As depicted inFig. 1 , theseal 20 extends outward in a dog-eared manner, but for convenience purposes can be attached tosurface 10a (or 10a') as shown inFig. 4 .
