Mike Lamb Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 I did not see a flashing outside above the roof I-Joists. Regardless, wood should not be in contact with masonry. Right? There should be an air gap or flashing. What is a reference to defend this? IRC 1503.2.1? This is a single wythe 8" CMU garage wall.

Unless the manufacturer's published specifications allow for the material to be buried into the masonry (unlikely), it is wrong. There should have been a barrier installed between the materials.
