APPLICATION/USE INSTRUCTIONSPlease refer to DuPont™ Tyvek® Fluid Applied WB+™ Wall and Substrate Guidelines and DuPont Tyvek Fluid Applied Flashing Installation Guidelines.
Use ConditionsDuPont™ Tyvek® Fluid Applied WB+™ is intended to be installed as part of membrane drainage wall system. Do not install on a wall that does not feature a continuous path for moisture drainage (as defined below*). Stirring is not necessary. If separation should occur, gently fold material until mixture is uniform. Avoid any type of mixing that will introduce air into the product. The temperature of the DuPont™ Tyvek® Fluid Applied WB+™ at the spray tip of standard spray equipment should be 65°F (18°C) or higher. For more information, refer to the DuPont™ Tyvek® Commercial Solutions Technical Bulletin Additional Considerations When Spraying DuPont™ Tyvek® Fluid Applied WB+™. Avoid spraying in very dusty conditions. See DuPont™ Tyvek® Fluid Applied WB+™ Wall and Substrate Guidelines for detailed application instructions.
*A “Continuous Path for Moisture Drainage to the Exterior” consists of a designed path for continuous moisture drainage which must allow moisture to drain freely and without interruption along the drainage plane. Examples of obstructions that can interrupt drainage are: eyebrows, band boards, building returns, etc. The intent is to ensure that any moisture that penetrates the exterior cladding and reaches DuPont™ Tyvek® Fluid Applied WB+™ can drain and exit the building envelope. The wall system should be designed to prevent moisture accumulation (trapping moisture) within the assembly. Materials should be installed in shingle fashion to provide positive drainage; with sealed penetrations, kick-out or diverter flashing at windows, doors, and any vertical to horizontal changes of the building plane. Proper shingling and integration with kick-out or diverter flashings and/or through wall membranes is essential to moisture management.
PreparationSurface must be clean, free from frost, grease, dirt, or other contaminants and must be reasonably smooth. Remove all surface dust, dirt, fins, ridges, mortar, and other projections and fill honeycomb, aggregate pockets, holes, recessed mortar joints and other voids in concrete with substrate-patching material. Mortar joints in concrete block and voids in poured concrete shall be filled flush and smooth and allowed to cure for a minimum of 48 hours. Product can be installed on damp surfaces provided no moisture is transferred to the skin when the substrate is touched. This flexibility reduces substrate preparation and protection requirements.
ApplicationComplete all joint treatment and flashing prior to any spraying or rolling of DuPont™ Tyvek® Fluid Applied WB+™. DuPont™ Tyvek® Fluid Applied WB+™ can be applied in a single application at 25 mils thick; spot check with a wet mil gauge. Inspect surface for voids and pinholes and repair as necessary. Refer to the Wall and Substrate Guidelines for complete information.
CuringDuPont™ Tyvek® Fluid Applied WB+™ skins over and is tack free or dry to touch within 2 hours at 70°F and 50% relative humidity. Tack free time and complete cure can vary with temperature, humidity and substrate conditions. Uncured DuPont™ Tyvek® Fluid Applied products should not come in contact with DuPont™ Tyvek® Wrap products. Performance testing should be done after product is fully cured (~14 days). See curing table in DuPont™ Tyvek® Fluid Applied WB+™ Wall and Substrate Guidelines (K29398) for details.
EquipmentDuPont™ Tyvek® Fluid Applied WB+™ may be sprayed using a high-pressure, airless sprayer or applied using a pressure roller in conjunction with a variety of pumps. See DuPont™ Tyvek® Fluid Applied WB+™ Wall and Substrate Guidelines (K29398), for pump, equipment and tip configurations. All manufacturer limitations should be followed.
TESTING/CODE COMPLIANCEMOISTURE PROTECTION – WEATHER-RESISTANT BARRIERSThe 2012/2015 International Building Code (IBC, Section 1403.2 Weather Protection) requires that exterior walls shall provide the building with a weather-resistant exterior wall envelope.

• AATCC 127, Hydrostatic Head Test for WRB Materials, measuring pressure to failure or time of failure at a given pressure
• ASTM E331, Standard Test Method for Water Penetration of Exterior Windows, Skylights, Doors, And Curtain Walls by Uniform Static Pressure.
AIR LEAKAGE CONTROL – AIR BARRIERSASHRAE 90.1 2010 requires that the entire building envelope shall be designed and constructed with a continuous air barrier. This is a mandatory provision for the building envelope. IECC 2012/2015 (International Energy Conservation Code) for commercial buildings also requires a continuous air barrier. These codes are being adopted in many states across the United States. Tyvek® Fluid Applied System products have been tested and meet air barrier codes and standard requirements. The following test methodologies were used:
• ASTM E2178, Standard Test Method for Air Permeance of Building Materials
• ASTM E283, Standard Test Method for Determining Rate of Air Leakage Through Exterior Windows, Curtain Walls, and Doors Under Specified Pressure Differences Across the Specimen
• ASTM E2357 Standard Test Method for Determining Air Leakage of Air Barrier Assemblies
• ASTM E1677, Standard Specification for Air Barrier (AB) Material or System for Low-Rise Framed Building Walls
• ASTM E779-10 Standard Test Method for Determining Air Leakage Rate by Fan Pressurization (whole building)

DUPONT™ TYVEK® COMMERCIAL AIR BARRIER ASSEMBLIES EXCEED AIR BARRIER ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA, ASHRAE 90.1 AND IECC AIR LEAKAGE REQUIREMENTS WHEN TESTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH ASTM E2357
DuPont test protocol for Tyvek® Fluid Applied WB+™, Tyvek® CommercialWrap® and Tyvek® CommercialWrap® D also includes rigorous thermal cycling and high-pressure testing.
INTRODUCTION
High performance air barrier assemblies are a vital part of any commercial structure building envelope. An air barrier assembly is a collection of air barrier materials and components assembled together in a specific manner and typically includes the primary air barrier membrane (such as DuPont™ Tyvek® Fluid Applied WB+™, Tyvek® CommercialWrap®, or CommercialWrap® D) in combination with other components to maintain air barrier continuity of the wall assembly. For example, flashings, tapes, sealants, primers, and mechanical fasteners are used to seal wall penetrations such as windows and doors, and for integrating the air barrier membrane with the roof and foundation.
Experts agree the performance of an air barrier assembly is of far greater importance than the air permeance of any single component of the system. The testing of a high performance air barrier assembly for air leakage is done in accordance with ASTM E2357 “Standard Test Method for Determining Air Leakage of Air Barriers”.
ASTM E2357 provides the end user information on the performance of an installed air barrier assembly. A manufacturer must specify each of the components in the system to declare that it provides an air barrier assembly tested in accordance with ASTM E2357. This is a major benefit to the product specifier as system issues such as material compatibility and wall assembly performance are addressed by the manufacturer rather than relying on trial and error.
ASTM E2357 — The Industry Accepted Standard Test Method for Determining Air Leakage of Air Barrier Assemblies.
ASTM E2357 is intended to simulate the performance of various air barrier materials/accessories when combined into an assembly and measures the air leakage of a standardized air barrier assembly before and after exposure to specific pressure cycles. Air barrier assemblies when tested in accordance with ASTM E2357 methodology must not exceed ABAA, ASHRAE 90.1 and IECC maximum air leakage requirement of 0.2 L/(s•m2) @ 75 Pa. (0.04 cfm/ft2 @ 1.57 psf ), to be considered an air barrier assembly.
All DuPont commercial air barrier systems are tested per ASTM E2357. Third party testing is conducted using DuPont™ Tyvek® commercial air barrier products on opaque walls (with DuPont™ Tyvek® CommercialWrap® fastened with 2" DuPont™ Tyvek® Wrap Cap Screws, and sealed at the seams with 3" DuPont™ Tyvek® Tape) and penetrated wall assemblies (with window, standard penetrations and cladding fasteners (i.e. masonry ties)) installed or applied over exterior sheathing.
OVERVIEW OF ASTM E2357 TEST METHODOLOGY
The test method requires a minimum of two, 8' x 8' wall assemblies be tested, which include:
• Opaque Wall with horizontal and vertical seams, and • Penetrated Wall with window, duct, electrical penetrations and
cladding fasteners
Two wall configurations required for testing, are shown in Figure 1.

OPAQUE WALL ASSEMBLIES
DuPont™ Tyvek® CommercialWrap® Air Barrier Assembly
This assembly consists of an 8' x 8' wall with exterior gypsum secured to steel framing with sheathing fasteners and fastener schedule according to ASTM E2357 structural load testing. DuPont™ Tyvek® CommercialWrap® and CommercialWrap® D are installed over the sheathing according to the requirements of ASTM E 2357 with two (2) vertical and one (1) horizontal seam taped with 3" DuPont™ Tyvek® Tape. DuPont™ Tyvek® Wrap Cap Screws with 2" diameter caps are used to secure the DuPont™ Tyvek® Mechanically Fastened Air and Water Barrier to the metal framing according to the applicable fastener pattern included in DuPont™ Tyvek® Mechanically Fastened Air and
Water Barrier Installation Guidelines for Buildings Greater Than 4 Stories and High Performance Installations of Any Height (K-16160). When DuPont™ Tyvek® Mechanically Fastened Air and Water Barriers are installed, the exterior gypsum sheathing seams are not pretreated with a sealing material. An example of an opaque wall assembly with DuPont™ Tyvek® CommercialWrap® is shown in Figure 2.
Figure 2: Opaque Wall Configuration for ASTM E2357 Testing of DuPont™ Tyvek® Commercial Building Wrap Assemblies
DuPont™ Tyvek® Fluid Applied System Air Barrier Assembly
DuPont™ Tyvek® Fluid Applied WB+™ is applied to the exterior gypsum board sheathing by spraying, pressure rolling, or manual rolling to the recommended thickness of 25 mils per the DuPont™ Tyvek® Fluid Applied WB+™ Wall and Substrate Guidelines (K-29398). The seams of the exterior gypsum sheathing are pretreated with DuPont™ Tyvek® Fluid Applied Flashing and Joint Compound+.
PENETRATED WALL ASSEMBLIES
DuPont™ Tyvek® CommercialWrap® Air Barrier Assembly
The window and other penetrations in the penetrated DuPont™ Tyvek® mechanically fastened air and water barrier assembly are flashed using DuPont™ FlexWrap™ NF and/or StraightFlash™. In addition, DuPont™ StraightFlash™ patches are placed behind each cladding fasteners (e.g. masonry ties). The penetrated wall assembly is shown in Figure 3.
Figure 3: Penetrated Wall Configuration for ASTM E2357 Testing of DuPont™ Tyvek® Commercial Building Wrap Assemblies
DuPont™ Tyvek® Fluid Applied System Air Barrier Assembly
The wall penetrations and window openings can be flashed using DuPont™ self-adhered flashing products or DuPont™ Tyvek® Fluid Applied Flashing and Joint Compound+. DuPont™ Sealant for Tyvek® Fluid Applied System is used for the interior perimeter seal and for face sealing with the wall membrane. The penetrated wall assembly is shown in Figure 4.
Figure 4: Penetrated Wall Configuration for ASTM E2357 Testing of DuPont™ Tyvek® Fluid Applied Assemblies
DUPONT COMMERCIAL WALL ASSEMBLY TEST PROTOCOL
The wall assemblies are placed into a test chamber and secured for testing. An air supply will provide a positive or negative pressure differential across the test wall assemblies. The ASTM E2357 test method requires wall assembly testing under both positive and negative pressures, since a continuous air barrier will experience both positive and negative pressure loads. The negative load (under suction) is typically the most severe because, in effect, it tries to pull the air barrier assembly off the wall. When a mechanically fastened air barrier assembly is exposed to a negative load pressure, the forces are transferred through the membrane, onto the fasteners and then back to the structural supports (i.e. steel studs). The fasteners used when installing the Tyvek® CommercialWrap® or CommercialWrap® D are attached to the studs and provide additional sheathing holding power during structural loading. Because air barrier system fastening is not necessary for fluid applied air barrier systems, an appropriate sheathing fastener schedule and seam treatment must be employed for the DuPont™ Tyvek® Fluid Applied System wall assemblies. In general, air leakage is measured before and after exposure according to the ASTM E2357 test protocol. The complete ASTM E2357 test protocol is outlined below.
Summary of Standard Testing Under ASTM E2357 Requirements:
• Air Barrier Assembly – 8' x 8' wall assemblies – Opaque wall with horizontal and vertical seams – Penetrated wall with window, duct, and electrical penetrations as well as several cladding fasteners
– DuPont™ Tyvek® Weather Barrier installed with no cladding
• ASTM E2357 Testing Procedure – Initial Air Leakage Testing – Structural Wind Pressure Conditioning – Final Air Leakage Testing – Deflection Measurements
The structural loading of the wall assembly is based on the assumption that the air barrier assembly will take the full wind loads, that it will experience repeated cycling of high positive and negative pressure loads during its service life (e.g. thousand of cycles), and that the air barrier will see two severe storms in the first 15 years in service. Following the wind pressure conditioning, the assembly is retested for air leakage.
DUPONT™ TYVEK® COMMERCIAL AIR BARRIER ASTM E2357 TESTING RESULTS
Air barrier assemblies made with DuPont™ Tyvek® Fluid Applied WB+™, Tyvek® CommercialWrap® and Tyvek® CommercialWrap® D have averaged air leakage rates significantly below industry and code air barrier assembly requirements.

AIR BARRIER ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA EVALUATED AIR BARRIER ASSEMBLIES
Air Barrier Association of America (ABAA) is a trade organization representing the center of excellence in the air barrier industry. Its mission is to promote the use and benefits of air barrier systems and to develop a professional specialty trade and industry dedicated to the installation of effective air barrier systems in buildings.
ABAA recently introduced an air barrier evaluation protocol, which requires air barrier manufacturers to provide 3rd party test reports for air barrier materials and assemblies. ASTM E2357 has been adopted by ABAA as a key element of its acceptance criteria. For a manufacturer to declare that it provides an air barrier assembly, the manufacturer must specify each of the components in the system. This is a major benefit to the design professional as issues such as compatibility are resolved by the manufacturer rather than relying trial and error.
ABAA Evaluated Air Barrier Assemblies are only those materials for which all required wall assembly testing has been submitted and ABAA evaluation has been successfully completed.
DuPont™ Tyvek® CommercialWrap®, and DuPont™ Tyvek® CommercialWrap® D, in conjunction with DuPont Flashing and Accessories, are the first mechanically fastened air barrier systems that have been evaluated and listed by ABAA as an air barrier assembly (www.airbarrier.org/materials/assemblies_e.php).
DuPont™ Tyvek® Fluid Applied WB+™, in conjunction with DuPont Flashing and Accessories, has also been evaluated and listed by ABAA as an air barrier assembly (www.airbarrier.org/materials/assemblies_e.php).
DuPont is the first manufacturer to offer both mechanically fastened wrap and fluid applied products that have been confirmed
to meet ABAA requirements for commercial air barrier assemblies, earning the seal of “ABAA Evaluated”.
DuPont™ Tyvek® CommercialWrap® and CommercialWrap® D have also completed ABAA evaluation as Water Resistant Barriers and are also listed under “ABAA
Evaluated Water Resistive Barriers”
DUPONT™ TYVEK® COMMERCIAL AIR BARRIERS UNDERGO RIGOROUS THERMAL CYCLING AND HIGH-PRESSURE TESTING IN ADDITION TO ASTM E2357 TEST PROTOCOL
ABAA requires manufacturers to prove compliance with minimum standard requirements for air barriers primarily in accordance with ASTM E2357. The current air leakage standards for air barrier assemblies do not take into account the temperature variations an air barrier system may experience during use. However, DuPont believes that the expansion and contraction due to temperature variations may affect the continuity and performance of an air barrier assembly. Therefore, the DuPont test protocol routinely used for Tyvek® commercial air barrier systems goes well beyond the standard requirements to include rigorous thermal cycling and high-pressure testing.
