This paper describes a study comparing the water-resistive behavior of two commonly available housewrap products and No. 15 building felt in which the WRB materials were exposed to water (with and without surfactants) and three typical construction scenarios: no contact with OSB sheathing, contact with OSB sheathing, and contact with OSB sheathing combined with a staple fastener.
