Abstract

Abstract Each square fibrous insulation board has a scrim adhered to an outer side thereof and extending beyond two opposite edges thereof to provide a pair of opposite scrim flaps. The boards are oriented alternately at ninety degrees to each other on a wall to be insulated, whereby every horizontal joint and every vertical joint between adjacent boards is covered by a scrim flap. A cementitious coating is applied over the boards and scrim.
