Window capping
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In building construction, window capping refers to the application of one material over another to provide a weather-proof layer, intended to control the infiltration of weather elements.
Window capping does need to provide a water-proof condition that protects the original materials. This control element must serve to safely direct water or wind in order to control run-off and prevent infiltration into the window structure. Cladding applied to windows is often referred to as window capping.
