Tyvek Placement ?

[Robert11]

Hello:

Is Tyvek normally placed between the house studs and the Plywood, or between the Plywood and the wood exterior clapboards ?

Does it matter ? Why ?

Thanks, B.

Robert,

Between the plywood sheathing and the clapboards. Tyvek will protect the home from air infiltration and wind blown water when done like this.
