Cement Board Masonry Veneer

Wall System (CBMV)

For use in residential and low-rise commercial applications,

CBMV oers a complete, engineered solution for installation of

adhered veneers. It provides the ability to incorporate an eective

water-management system for a variety of building exteriors with

manufactured or natural stone, tile and thin brick veneers.

BENEFITS INCLUDE

• Engineered system that allows a faster installation while

providing superior quality control (manufactured product that

must comply with ASTM product specifications).

• Increased performance by utilizing modified adhesive mortars

(designed for hanging materials) rather than type S&N mortars

(developed for stacking materials).

• Extremely durable with increased resistance to impact and

inclement weather.

• Approved for use in ASTM 1780, and cement board is cited as

an approved substrate for this system by the Masonry Veneer

Manufacturers Association (MVMA): Installation Guide and

Detailing Options for Compliance with ASTM C1780.

• Easily allows for the inclusion of continuous installation into

the assembly.

• Appropriate for all climates, and resists the growth of mold

and mildew.

• Speed up your schedule – faster, easier and cleaner than

traditional metal lath/scratch-coat method.

• IBC/IRC compliant; meets ASTM C1325.

• PermaBASE products are approved as a substrate for

direct applied finishes, tile, stone and thin brick in exterior

applications, as outlined in UL Evaluation Report ER-22158.

• PermaBASE products are suitable for use in combustible

and noncombustible construction under the IBC and IRC, as

outlined in UL Evaluation Report ER-22158.

LIMITATIONS

• Sheathing selection and installation varies according to type

of wall construction.

• Code-approved water/air resistive barrier (WRB) must be

installed to protect the cavity (type and placement will vary

per local building codes and/or manufacturer’s specifications,

installation guidelines and warranties).
