Radiant Barrier And Housewrap?


I have a question about the Solarboard OSB and housewrap. If you use the Solarboard for side sheathing, can you put housewrap on top of that and it still be effective? Doesn't it require at least a 3/4" gap, say between the brick to be effective. Does the housewrap affect its function? While typing this, I thought of the Solarboard used for roof decking with shingles next to it and it still works. So I may have answered my own question but would like some input.

Thanks,
CB
