What is a "drip"?

In construction, a drip refers to a small ledge or projection designed to direct water away from a surface, preventing it from running down the wall or structure. Drips are commonly found on features such as roofs, window sills, and ledges, where they help manage water runoff and reduce the risk of water damage or erosion. By ensuring that water drips away from the building, this feature helps maintain the integrity of the materials and improves the overall durability of the structure. Drips are an important element in effective drainage and weatherproofing in architectural design.
