Separating wall junctions 1 4.
Drainage of external wall cavity must also be maintained see fig a 8 9.

This timber frame home designed and built by facit homes is clad in timber rain screen coated in a dark stain green oak cladding for instance is likely to move a lot so the battens might need to be positioned closer together to minimise this.
As such it should be highly durable and tear resistant in accordance with type 1 membranes in bs4016.
Detail design timber cladding basic principles in principle any timber cladding should be designed as a rainscreen.
Details on plan 1.
Horizontal timber cladding is probably the most common and perhaps simpler option.
