A building structural component (10), such as a wall, roof, ceiling, floor, or the like, is resistant to weather and moisture while facilitating the drying and elimination of water vapor and liquid water. The component includes a vapor-permeable membrane (16) that resists penetration of liquids including water, but that permits gases including water vapor to pass through the membrane to resist buildup of moisture in the building component (10). A batten (18), such as an insulated batten, forms a cavity (28) in the building component (10) to facilitate air circulation, and reduces heat flow through structural studs (12) of the building component (10) to increase the overall insulation value of the finished component. |
