To utilize rigid insulation boards on the exterior of the wall sheathing with a plaster appearance exterior skin, EIFS is used. It's nothing but the exterior wall cladding. The abbreviation of EIFS is Exterior Insulation and Finish System. The basic form of EIFS was developed in West Germany in the 1960s. And this one was introduced in the US in 1969.  

 About EIFS

 PB - a polymer-based system is the most common type of polymer. This system has a nominally 1/16 inch thick reinforced base coat and it is applied to the insulation before application of the finish coat. This insulation generally consists of closed expanded polystyrene (EPS). This can either adhesively or mechanically attach to the sheathing. 

 The most common type of EIFS is the polymer-modified (PM) system. This is less popular compared to PB. You can find this system with 3/16 inch to the 12-inch thick reinforced base coat. This is applied to the insulation before the application of the finish coat. This insulation generally consists of extruded expanded polystyrene (XPS). This is mechanically connected to the sheathing or structure of the wall.  

 Barrier wall system and wall drainage system is two basic types in which you can find EIFS. Barrier EIFS wall systems depend on the base coat portion of the exterior skin. With the help of this system, it can resist water penetration. And that makes it possible to all other components of the exterior wall must either be barrier type system or be properly sealed to protect water from migrating behind the EIFS and into the underlying walls r interiors. 

 Fundamentals

 All EIFS are proprietary systems. And no one can go beyond the manufacturer's literature in the process of modification. The design of the interface with different components of the wall system depends on the wall designer. With the help of complete details, you should make a clear design of the final construction. You can also add the sequences by which the wall assembly is to be constructed. If possible, you should address such things.
