Remarks
Wall sidings offer protection from wind and rain. Different types of wall siding materials have varying degrees of wind load resistance. A breach in wall sidings can expose the wall to wind and rain, resulting in water intrusion and internal pressure buildup.

Different types of cladding materials offer varying degrees of resistance to earthquake-induced lateral loads. Veneer and stone panels in particular are more susceptible to falling off in an earthquake.
