Individual Shingle Installation
Due to overlapping of the joints, caulk is not required except where panels
about trim boards. Space shingles a maximum 1/4" apart and leave a
minimum lap of 1 1/2" between successive courses (fig. 19).
1) Install 1 1/4" starter strip and a 8 1/4" wide HardiePlank
®
siding starter course.
2) Install first shingle from the end abutting trim. Install widest part of
shingle placed downwards. (fig. 18).
3) Secure shingle, leaving a 1/8" gap for caulk at trim and continue the
course along the wall.
4) Start the second course, leaving a minimum lap of 1 1/2" between
successive courses, again from the end abutting the trim. Repeat step 3.
5) Continue up the wall repeating steps 2 through 5 until desired height
is reached.

4) Start the second course, by removing the equivalent of one full stud cavity
(16" or 24" OC), again abutting the cut end into the trim (fig 20). This is to
prevent pattern repetition. Repeat step 3.
5) Start the third course, by removing the equivalent of two full stud cavities
(figs 15 & 17) and repeat step 3.
6) Continue up the wall repeating steps 2 through 6 until desired height is reached.
