The Standard Weep Screed (a.k.a. #7 Foundation Weep Screed) is a formed metal product which is available in Aluminum, Copper, Galvanized Steel, and Stainless Steel. It serves as an outlet for moisture that may reach the area between the plaster cement and the water resistant barrier in a stucco installation.

Attach Weep Screeds to the framing with nails, screws, or other approved fastening methods. Attach the bottom edge of the Standard Weep Screed no less than 1" below the joint formed by the foundation and framing. The nose of the screed must be placed no less than 4 inches above raw earth or 2 inches above paved surfaces. The weather resistive barrier (two layers of building paper required if plywood sheathing is used) and lath must entirely cover the vertical attachment flange and terminate at the top edge of the nose or ground flange (per ASTM C 1063-03, Sec. 7.11.5).

Standard Weep Screeds come in 10' lengths and can be ordered in a variety of ground sizes. The fastening flange is 3.5" standard, whereas the Ground Leg (dimension "A") is available in multiple sizes and custom widths. Please specify the size needed on the order form below. Flannery does not offer this product with holes.
