Stucco embedment is critical to providing enduring cladding performance on a building’s plaster/stucco walls. Embedment is a function of application whereby the lathing material is covered by the plaster.

This white paper video will discuss several considerations around different attributes of lathing products and their effect on embedment.

HDP holdown plates are designed for taller construction and higher tension loads; transferring the tension loads between floors or from structural members to the foundation embed plate (by others).
