  • End-Match-White-Paper-1.Pdf
    END-MATCHED VS. NON-END-MATCHED THE BUILDER’S CHOICE End-matching has been around for well over two decades in the manufacturing of wood siding, paneling and looring. This process has been shown to signiicantly decrease waste and labor, which make installation simpler and more eficient. However, builders are not easily convinced to move away from their tried and tested ways. This paper seeks to irst outline and respond to the main concerns from builders who have traditionally used non-end- matched products, secondly to outline the key beneits of end-matched products, and thirdly to provide testimonials from builders who have taken the leap. What are builders concerned about when they see, for example, 3”x8” Hand Hewn end-matched End-matched is a term that describes siding — random lengths 2’ to 8’? the process of double-end trimming The irst concern is often directed to the 2 to 8 foot tally. This can of wood siding, paneling or looring be mind boggling when you are used to 12 to 16 foot lengths. pieces, and precision milling a tongue- How do I cover the long sections? Where do I use all the small and-groove on the plank ends. pieces? Will there be numerous visible seams? What will that look like? Does it create any problems? Will I still need to make cuts? How much waste factor do we need to account for? Will it end up as being more work? Builders’ main concerns can be boiled down to the following points: • Tally and use of different lengths • Appearance • Waste • Workload These concerns can all be easily addressed — and will be as you read on! WWW.HEARTWOODMILLS.COM | 888.829.5909 1 How does end-matching change the build process? The most signiicant change for a builder is that end-matched paneling or siding no longer needs to butt on a stud.

A visual emphasis on beams, purlins and connections lends character and a powerful aesthetic sense Construction of strength. Historically a handcrafted skill of mortise and tenon joinery, heavy timber construction has been modernized by tools such as CNC machines, high- strength engineered wood products, and mass-production techniques. A growing environmental awareness that recognizes wood as the only renewable and sustainable structural building material is also invigorating this type of construction. Heavy timbers are differentiated from dimensional lumber by having minimum dimensions required by the building code. Modern versions include sawn stress-grade lumber, timber tongue and groove decking, glued-laminated timber (glulam), parallel strand lumber (PSL), laminated veneer lumber (LVL) and cross laminated timber (CLT). Structural laminated products can be used as solid walls, floors and columns to construct an entire building. Modern heavy timber construction contributes to the appeal, comfort, structural durability and longevity of schools, churches, large-span recreation centers, mid-rise/multi-family housing and supermarkets, among many other buildings.

  • How to Install Cedar Siding
    Congratulations on your choice of Western Red Cedar siding. Western Red Cedar is one of the world’s premier quality woods noted for its appearance, durability, light weight, insulation value and dimensional stability. It will provide your home with character and a distinction that other sidings cannot match. Properly installed and finished, it will provide years of low INTRODUCTION maintenance performance. Before beginning your siding project read this brochure thoroughly – it contains useful information to ensure the siding is installed correctly and will perform as intended. This brochure is organized into three sections. Section I. Before You Start deals with numerous considerations which you should be aware of before you start installing Western Red Cedar Siding. Section II. Outlines proper installation techniques. Section III. Provides a list of industry best practices for Western Red Cedar siding installation. Note that these are general guidelines that are minimum standards to be followed with confidence in most areas. However, severe local climatic conditions such as extreme heat and dryness; high winds; seacoast exposure; and, areas with wide climatic swings may necessitate additional provisions for the installation of the siding. Your national and local building code requirements always supersede these instructions. A detailed siding installation DVD is available from the WRCLA. Call 1-866-778-9096 for a copy. 2 SECTION I BEFORE YOU START 1. INSPECT MATERIAL Always purchase recognized grades such as those from WRCLA members and ensure you understand the grade of material you’ve purchased. Grades are designed for specific appearances and uses. Before installing, be sure the siding you’ve selected meets your requirements.

  • Woodworking Joints.Key
    Woodworking making joints Using Joints Basic Butt Joint The butt joint is the most basic woodworking joint. Commonly used when framing walls in conventional, stick-framed homes, this joint relies on mechanical fasteners to hold the two pieces of stock in place. Learn how to build a proper butt joint, and when to use it on your woodworking projects. Basic Butt Joint The simplest of joints is a butt joint - so called because one piece of stock is butted up against another, then fixed in place, most commonly with nails or screws. The addition of glue will add some strength, but the joint relies primarily upon its mechanical fixings. ! These joints can be used in making simple boxes or frames, providing that there will not be too much stress on the joint, or that the materials used will take nails or screws reliably. Butt joints are probably strongest when fixed using glued dowels. Mitered Butt Joint ! A mitered butt joint is basically the same as a basic butt joint, except that the two boards are joined at an angle (instead of square to one another). The advantage is that the mitered butt joint will not show any end grain, and as such is a bit more aesthetically pleasing. Learn how to create a clean mitered butt joint. Mitered Butt Joint The simplest joint that requires any form of cutting is a miter joint - in effect this is an angled butt joint, usually relying on glue alone to construct it. It requires accurate 45° cutting, however, if the perfect 90° corner is to result.

  • Cypress Siding Installation Guidelines ■ Cypressinfo.Org 1 What to Know Before Getting Started
    Thank you for choosing cypress siding. You’ve made the natural choice. With its good looks, dimensional Cypress stability, long-lasting durability, and proven performance, cypress can add a lifetime of character and distinction to your home or building when properly installed and Siding maintained. These general guidelines are minimum standards to Installation be followed in most areas. Because climate conditions vary by location, additional provisions may be necessary. It’s highly recommended to consult local building Guidelines professionals and always follow national and local building code requirements. Cypress Siding Installation Guidelines ■ cypressinfo.org 1 What to Know Before Getting Started Acclimation Cypress is a natural wood product that responds to changes in moisture and its surrounding environment, resulting in swelling or shrinkage. Cypress siding must be conditioned to the local in-service moisture content—typically between 8–16%. Maximum Moisture Content Finish grades (Select and better): 15% Common Grades (#2 common): 18% Source: Standard Specifications for Grades of Southern Cypress Site Storage It’s recommended to store cypress siding at least 4 inches off the ground in an indoor, dry climate. Separate pieces using stickers to ensure airflow. If cypress must be stored outside above open ground, first lay a 100% moisture-proof barrier and then follow the same steps. Cover the wood with a 100% waterproof barrier for protection from the elements and direct sunlight. Face Finishing: Smooth or Rough Cypress siding is readily available in S1S, meaning it’s surfaced or smooth on one side and rough on the other. While it’s a personal preference which side faces out, the rough face generally accepts finishes better and requires less frequent maintenance, but soaks up more finish.
