Z-bend flashing: Use it on Sheathing?
The gambrel roof 16’X32′ cabin/shed is getting to the second story stage.
I know that the sheathing’s joints should be offset from the 4’X8′ sheets of Hardiboard.
What I’m wondering is about the second story sheathing. Should the top floor’s sheathing have the Z-flashing on it also?
Thanks,
Bill

Z-flashing is for the exterior finish siding panels, not for sheathing. With housewrap or tarpaper between the two, there is no need for flashing in the sheathing

Thanks, Piffin. I'll be using overlapping tar paper.
