Abstract

A laminated wall construction for building exteriors in which a facing outer layer provides the exterior surface and is attached to a corrugated layer such that the corrugations form vertical channels extending along the laminated wall construction. A trough is located at the lower end of the corrugated layer with weep holes formed in the trough whereby moisture which seeps through the facing outer layer flows down the corrugation layer of vertical channels into the trough and out of the weep holes.
