I am a new builder in the Houston area and I am building my first all stucco home. I used a little stucco on my last project and we used 7/16″ O.S.B covered with tar paper as the exterior wall sheathing. I was wondering 2 things. 1st, is O.S.B and adaquate sheathing material for Stucco? Secondly, is tar paper and adaquate moisture barrier for the exterior sheathing with Stucco.
I was also thinking about using the “House Wrap” products on this job. ANy thoughts on those products.
Any help from a Stucco pro will be greatly appreciated.
