Overcladding offers a relatively simple solution to the problem of keeping rainwater out of buildings and although there are several variations, the principle concepts are -

• The careful design of ventilated cavities that use the pressure effects of the wind to dissipate energy of driven rainwater
• Properly designed drainage paths that collect and direct the water away from the cavity

The concept of over cladding is simple, but to be successful it is essential that a detailed knowledge of the physical principles and materials involved be incorporated into the design details.
