Wall panel with rain screen
A wall panel for installation on a supporting wall includes a facing surface that includes a plurality of separate and spaced apart design elements. The design elements define a channel therebetween. The panel also includes a backing surface having at least one rib opposite the channel. The rib extends transversely across the backing surface, such as a parallel to one of the upper or lower edges of the panel or at an angle between 0 and 90 relative to one of the upper or lower edges of panel. Fasteners are engagable through the channel and the rib for securing the wall panel to the supporting wall. Upon installation of the wall panel on the supporting wall, one or more air gaps are defined by the rib and the backing surface opposite the design elements. The rib provides additional material opposite the channel to prevent the panel from breaking during installation.
