本标准包含使用符合CAN/ULC-S716要求的外部绝缘和饰面系统（EIF）的外部覆层的设计、选择和应用要求。1，以及EIF和其他建筑构件之间的接口。本标准仅适用于与排水空气空间和液体应用阻水屏障（LA-WRB）结合使用的EIF，作为外墙覆层系统。本标准仅涉及构成EIF所附基板的组件，只要这些组件影响EIF的正确性能。本标准不涉及基板的结构设计。钢筋作为抹灰支撑构件的包层系统（如灰泥）不属于本标准的一部分。机械紧固件的使用不在本标准范围内- 更多信息，请参阅附录A。本文件并非旨在阐述与EIF设计、选择和使用相关的所有方面。使用本标准需要了解适用的联邦、省和地方建筑规范和法规，因为对于本标准未涉及的特定装置，可能存在其他设计、选择或应用注意事项。本文件旨在为建筑设计师、建筑规范官员、产品制造商和承包商提供有关EIF设计、选择和应用的详细信息，并提供将促进EIF令人满意的性能和耐久性的信息。

This Standard contains requirements for the design, selection and application of exterior cladding utilizing Exterior Insulation and Finish Systems (EIFS) that meet the requirements of CAN/ULC-S716.1, and for the interfaces between EIFS and other building components.This Standard applies only to EIFS used in combination with a drained air space and liquid applied water resistive barrier (LA-WRB), as an exterior wall cladding system.This Standard addresses the components forming the substrate to which the EIFS is attached only insofar as they impact the proper performance of the EIFS. This Standard does not address the structural design of the substrate.Cladding systems where the reinforcement is the supporting element of the rendering, e.g., stucco, are not part of this Standard.The use of mechanical fasteners is outside the scope of this Standard, - refer to Annex A for further information.This document does not purport to address all the aspects related to EIFS design, selection and use. The use of this Standard requires a working knowledge of applicable federal, provincial and local building codes and regulations, as there may be other design, selection, or application considerations for specific installations that are not addressed by this standard.This document is intended to provide detailed information pertaining to the design, selection and application of EIFS for building designers, building code officials, product manufacturers and contractors and to provide information that will promote satisfactory performance and durability of EIFS.
