IMPROVED INSULATED FRAMING MEMBER

摘要

An insulated framing member for exterior wall insulation, and a method for covering walls with insulation materials using the insulated framing member underneath a water or weather-resistant barrier. The insulated framing member comprises a strip of insulating foam having chamfers along the edges, laminated to a wooden nailable substrate. The insulated framing member will reduce the compression of compressible insulation materials, the thermal bridging of fasteners, and eliminate water entrapment.
