Ben H Posted December 6, 2012 Report Posted December 6, 2012 Anyone have a detail image of the proper way to install head flashing?
Bryan Posted December 6, 2012 Report Posted December 6, 2012 Look up the James Hardie siding details, they have a good one.
Scottpat Posted December 6, 2012 Report Posted December 6, 2012 I have the same one that Gary posted.

Out here, lots of builders use the bituthene around three sides and then use metal head flashings along the top of the window. If they're installing Hardiplank they are required to do so by the manufacturer. ONE TEAM - ONE FIGHT!!! Mike

Click to Enlarge 35.4?KB Click to Enlarge 121.23?KB Drawing shows the side flashing installed over the window flange but I've seen some that show the side flashing installed under the window flange. Chk out the stucco article in the October issue of JLC. By Gene Summy. There doesn't seem to be a clear industry consensus. Marc
