Re: [GBlist] Housewrap compatibility with Tyvek(r)



Joe Lstiburek has done some work with cedar siding and deteriation of TYVEK.
Their literature does state that it should not be used in conjunction with
surfactants. The oils in cedar are surfactants & it is possible that OSB
contains similar oils.
See http://www.buildingscience.com/technical/Housewraps.html.
