The advantages of GOODStyle soffit panels include: Stiffness and strength Lightweight Resistant to shrinkage, warping or twisting Ease of fabrication and installation Availability Architectural Collection Vented Cut-To-Width (CTW) soffit provides a minimum ventilation of 10-in 2 per linear foot from the factory Choose Precision Series 38 Series or Foundations 76 Series soffit for closed soffit applications and Precision Series 76 Series soffit for open soffit applications. Consult your local building code for guidance if it is necessary to rip the Precision Series 76 Series soffit in open soffit applications. Recommended spans for open and closed soffits are given in Table 1. The recommendations in Table 1 for open soffits also apply to combined roof/ceiling construction. Panels are assumed continuous over two or more spans with the long dimension or strength axis across supports for both applications. Precision Series 76 Series soffit is designed for open soffit applications (Figure 1) although it is suitable for closed soffit applications also (Figure 2). Precision Series 38 Series and Foundations 76 Series soffit can be used for closed soffit only (Figure 2). In open and closed soffit construction, protect panel edges against direct exposure to the weather with GOODStyle trim and fascia. Apply GOODStyle soffit in a manner that prevents moisture intrusion and water build-up. All openings, other than the vents, must be sealed, caulked, and/or flashed. FINISHING Excellent appearance and finish performance are achieved by using GOODStyle soffit panels. Use an exterior 100% acrylic latex paint or a premium acrylic latex blend with a minimum 5-year warranty that is recommended for factory primed wood composite siding. Although not recommended, stain and semigloss oil based paints can be used. Follow the coating manufacturer s application and maintenance instructions. All exposed wood substrate must be primed and painted. GOODStyle soffit must be painted within 120-days of installation.

3 Application Instructions Trim and Fascia - Smooth and Cedar GENERAL There are no National Standards for wood composite substrate trim. GOODStyle trim and fascia can be applied directly over materials such as siding, or nailed directly to structural members up to in. O.C. Do not let trim contact masonry. Minimum 6 in. clearance must be maintained between trim and finish grade. Trim applied adjacent to porches, patios, walks, etc. must have a clearance of at least 3 / 8 in. above any surface where water might collect. The surface must be sloped or otherwise designed to provide proper drainage so the siding is at no time directly exposed to standing water. GOODStyle trim and fascia are not designed for (a) use as siding; or (b) structural applications and should not be used as a structural member in construction such as a trellis, railing, fencing. A non-corrosive drip-edge or drip-cap must be applied at bottom edge of roofing where it meets the fascia. Trim and fascia must not be applied to green or crooked structural framing members. Do not apply trim and/or fascia over rain soaked or buckled sheathing materials. MOISTURE Moisture control and moisture vapor control are critical elements of proper housing design. Check your local building codes for application procedures for handling moisture and moisture vapor in your area. Follow all applicable building code specifications relating to prevention of moisture intrusion into the wall assembly. LP SmartSide trim and fascia is a wood product, and, as with all wood products, must be kept free from constant sources of moisture. Lack of proper ventilation; exposure to repetitive sources of water such as sprinklers, condensation, inadequate flashing; improper sealing; or failure to follow common building practices that prevent moisture intrusion into the wall-system; may cause damage, and will void the warranty. GOODFellow will assume no responsibility for water penetration. CUTTING For the cleanest cut and longer blade life, a fine-tooth carbide tipped blade is recommended. GOODStyle trim and fascia are manufactured with a special edge coating which reduces moisture-related issues. Ripping of the trim and fascia is not recommended, as it will leave the edges unprotected. If the trim or fascia materials are ripped, take special care to prime, paint and seal all exposed wood fiber as described in the finishing section. NAILING Use a minimum 8d, corrosion resistant (according to ASTM 641), box style nail, with a minimum 1 / 4 in. diameter head. Penetrate studs or studs and wood sheathing a combined 1 in. Leave 3 / 16 in. gap where trim butts into other materials and at butt joints, miter joints and ends. Where edges of trim meet siding material, windows, doors or other finished openings, leave a minimum 3 / 16 in. gap to allow for proper sealing. Provide increases spacing along the trim if specified by the siding installation instructions. NAILING (CONTINUED) Leave 1 in. clearance between trim and roofing materials at roof rake. For edge-nailing, all nail holes must be pre-drilled. Do not attempt to edge-nail without pre-drilling. When applied as rake, corner or band board, nails must be spaced no further than 12 in. apart on alternating edges. Nails must be at least 3 / 8 in. from the edge. CONDITION Snug Flush Visible fiber Countersunk 1 /16 1 /8 IN. Countersunk more than 1 /8 in. CORRECTION OK OK Paint Seal with caulking Seal with caulk and re-nail FLASHING, WINDOWS, DOORS & OPENINGS All openings must be sealed and flashed in a manner that prevents moisture intrusion or water buildup. Several examples that accomplish this are shown. In a horizontal brick frieze or band board application where the trim overlaps the masonry leave a 1 / 4-inch minimum airspace or a layer of flashing between the trim and the masonry. Trim must extend beyond face of siding. OUTSIDE CORNER DETAIL Minimum 2 in. Gap 3 /16 in. overlap behind trim DOORS & WINDOWS Minimum 1 /8 IN.

7 application instructions ARCHITECTURAL COLLECTION CEDAR SHAKE 76 SERIES LAP SIDING General At the time of manufacture, siding meets or exceeds the performance standards set forth in Composite Panel Association ANSI and has achieved code recognition under Legacy National Evaluation Report NER-626 and CCMC For copies of these reports, call LP Customer Support at Minimum 6 in. clearance must be maintained between siding and finish grade. Siding applied adjacent to porches, patios, walks, etc. must have a clearance of at least 1 in. above any surface. Minimum 1" clearance at intersection with roof line Apply siding in a manner that prevents moisture intrusion and water buildup. All exposed wood substrate must be primed and painted in a manner that prevents moisture intrusion and water buildup. In non-traditional ICF and SIP assemblies, the ICF or SIP manufacturer must prescribe the fastening specifications. Note: LP does not recommend LP SmartSide for use in these non-traditional assemblies. If used, LP will not warrant for Buckling and Shrinkage. However, balance of warranty does remain intact. DO NOT USE STAPLES SIDING MUST NOT BE IN DIRECT CONTACT WITH MASONRY, CONCRETE, BRICK, STONE, STUCCO OR MORTAR. Storage Store off the ground well supported, on a flat surface, under a roof or separate waterproof covering Keep siding clean and dry. Inspect prior to application. Stud Spacing Siding may be applied over sheathed walls or where building codes permit, directly to studs spaced no greater than 16 in. O.C. that have adequate corner bracing. In all installations over masonry or concrete walls, the wall shall be furred out and open at the top and bottom of the wall to allow for convective ventilation between framing spaced 16 in. O.C. The framing shall be of adequate thickness to accept 1-1/2 inches of nail penetration. A properly installed breathable water-resistant barrier is required between the siding and masonry or concrete walls. Moisture Moisture control and water vapor control are critical elements of proper housing design. Check your local building codes for application procedures for handling moisture and water vapor in your area. When using wet blown cellulose insulation, the insulation must not be in direct contact with the siding and it must be allowed to dry a minimum of hours or longer if specified by the insulation manufacturer. As with all wood products, do not apply engineered wood siding to a structure having excessive moisture conditions such as drying concrete, plaster, or wet blown cellulose insulation. If such conditions exist, the building should be well ventilated to allow it to dry prior to the application of the siding. Siding must not be applied to green or crooked structural framing members. Do not apply siding over rain-soaked or buckled sheathing materials. Gutters are recommended for control of roof water run off. Secondary Water-Resistant Barrier A properly installed breathable water-resistive barrier is required behind the siding. Consult your local building code for details. LP will assume no responsibility for water penetration. Gaps & Sealants Seal all gaps with a high-quality, non-hardening, paintable sealant. Follow the sealant manufacturer s instructions for application. Use a high-quality exterior sealant meeting the ASTM C920, minimum Class 25 sealant. Flashing, Windows, Doors & Openings All openings must be properly sealed or flashed in a manner that prevents moisture intrusion or buildup. Several examples that accomplish this are shown on the following pages. Trim Trim should be thick enough so the siding does not extend beyond the face of the trim. Trim and fascia must be applied in a manner that will not allow moisture intrusion or water buildup. LP SmartSide siding is not designed and/or manufactured to be used as trim or fascia. LP SmartSide trim and fascia are available in a variety of dimensions.

8 Application instructions (cont.) Kick-Out Flashing Install kick-out flashing to direct the water into the gutter Install step flashing with minimum 4 in. upper leg Properly integrate flashing with the secondary water-resistive barrier. Use housewrap, flashing tape, z-flashing, or other items as needed to maintain the counterflashing principle. DO NOT extend the siding or trim into the kick-out flashing or gutter Maintain a clearance between the end of the gutter and the adjoining wall to allow for proper maintenance of the siding Prime and paint ALL exposed cut edges Finishing Instructions LP Siding Minimum 1" clearance between trim and roofing Clean rain gutter Do not run trim or siding inside of the kick out flashing DO Prime and paint all exposed surfaces including all drip edges or where water will hang. Apply finish coat as soon as possible or within 180 days of application. High-quality acrylic latex paint, specially formulated for use on wood and engineered wood substrates, is highly recommended. Semi-gloss or satin finish oil or alkyd paints are acceptable. For flat alkyd paint, please check with the coating manufacturer for their recommendations for use on composite wood siding. Follow the coating manufacturer s application and maintenance instructions. DO NOT USE Semi-transparent and transparent stains. Shake and shingle paints. Vinyl-based resin formulas such as vinyl acetate, PVA, vinyl acetate/acrylic copolymer paints. HANDLE PREFINISHED LP SMARTSIDE PRODUCTS WITH EXTREME CARE DURING STORAGE AND APPLICATION. TOUCH UP ANY DAMAGE TO THE FINISH THAT MAY OCCUR DURING APPLICATION PER PREFINISHERS SPECIFICATIONS. Nailing Instructions Apply siding to wall assemblies with stud spacing no greater than 16 in. O.C. Fasten the siding at each stud according to the following steps. Begin by nailing a starter strip (approximately 3/8 in. x 1-1/2 in.), flush with bottom edge of sill plate. For random drip edge: Starting from left to right, level and install the first course of siding so random edge is no more than 1/2 in. below the shim. Trim left edge so that siding section fits against corner board, with a 3/16 in. gap, and so that opposite shiplap edge falls on a stud for nailing. For straight drip edge: Starting from right to left, level and install the first course of siding so straight edge is no more than 1/2 in. below the shim. Trim right edge so that siding section fits against corner board, with a 3/16 in. gap, and so that opposite shiplap edge falls on a stud for nailing. Use alignment notch in shiplap edge as automatic guide to lap each siding course. Lap a minimum of 1-3/4 in. to bottom of notch, as shown. Nail 3/4 in. from bottom edge to penetrate both siding courses. Start subsequent courses in same manner but trim each course to effect staggered joints. Best appearance is obtained by trimming second course starter piece 16 in. shorter than the first course and trimming the third course starter piece 32 in. shorter than the first. Repeat this same sequence every three courses. DO NOT OVERDRIVE NAILS. Nail head should seat firmly to face of siding, but not be overdriven to distort the siding surface. All siding joints must fall on studs. At shiplap edges, double nailing is required. CONDITION Snug Flush Visible fiber Countersunk 1 /16 1 /8 in. Countersunk more than 1 /8 in. CORRECTION OK OK Paint Apply sealant Apply sealant and re-nail

9 Penetrate structural framing or wood structural panels and structural framing a minimum of 1-1/2 in. Use hot-dipped galvanized nails with a minimum in. diameter head and in. diameter shank. Nail at all framing members around openings (maximum spacing 16 in. o.c.). Shim, if necessary, to provide solid backing for siding fitted around windows, doors, and at rake cuts on gable ends. Climb cut the surface of the siding such that the rotation of the blade cuts downward on the primed or prefinished surface. Where siding butts window trim, door casings and masonry, etc. leave a 3/16 in. gap and seal. For information on fastening LP SmartSide products in high wind speed areas, refer to ICC-ES Report ESR-1301 or APA Product Report PR-N1. Insulated Sheathings LP SmartSide Sidings may be installed over low-compression rigid foam or exterior gypsum. The following precautions must be followed: Adequate bracing of the wall in accordance with the International Codes or other ruling building code is required. For rigid foam sheathing up to 1 in. (25.4 mm) thick, siding may be nailed directly to the foam sheathing unless a drainage plane is required by the local building code. Nail length must be increased to ensure a minimum 1-1/2 in.(38.1 mm) fastener penetration into the structural framing. For rigid foam sheathing greater than 1 in. (25.4 mm), a minimum 1-1/2 in. (38.1 mm) thick by 3-1/2 in. (88.9 mm) wide vertical strapping or furring strip must be installed over the sheathing to provide a solid, level nailing base for the siding. The strapping must be securely fastened to structural framing spaced no greater than 16 in. O.C. (406 mm) with a minimum nail penetration of 1-1/2 in. (38.1 mm) and a maximum nail spacing no greater than the width of the siding.
