    Anyone out there no a suitable detail for this window ope cladding detail. Its a new build 300mm cavity and from what i'm guessing its timber cladding between the windows.

    Im trying to figure out a detail but im stuck trying, im wondering is a timber frame on the outer leaf clad and with relevant barriers/membranes.

    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    Cheers

    It's not cladding, its a spandrel panel imo.
    It comes as part of the whole window unit

    it can also be done as cladding (albeit tricky and as above spandrel panel is better option) by leaving out the external leaf of blockwork, decision then is what to do with the return from the face of timber cladding to the windows as by the time its built up with insulation and battens etc it will be wider. would advise doing both plan and cross sections of the build up at the major junctions to ensure things like cills etc are dealt with correctly
