A drainage-promoting wrap includes an elongate strip of weather-resistive membrane storable in a spiral roll and a series of separate, spaced-apart, spacers elements bonded to a face of the weather-resistive membrane. The spacer elements project from the face to a predetermined height and are formed of a hot-melt material applied to the membrane. A series of self-sealing fastener tabs can also be formed on the face of the membrane. Wall and roof assemblies utilizing the wrap are also provided. |
