ABSTRACT:
A transition joint comprising: 1) a generally W-shaped central portion including first, second, third, and fourth legs; 2) a first vertical flange extending upwardly form the first leg of the W-shaped central portion; 3) a second vertical flange extending downwardly from the fourth leg of the W-shaped central portion; 4) a first transition zone or land between the first and second legs and a second transition zone between the third and fourth legs; 5) a longitudinal drip edge extending downward from the first transition zone; 6) a T-shaped stucco anchor extending downward from the fourth leg intermediate the second transition zone and the second vertical flange; and 7) a floor line alignment guide extending longitudinally along the first vertical flange. The floor line alignment guide provides accurate positioning of the transition joint with respect to a building in order to create proper clearance for runoff of rainwater and condensation and prevent infiltration of rainwater into the floor line.
