DIY Shiplap Building Guide DIY SHIPLAP HEADBOARD BUILDING PLANS: Description: Complete Building Guide for a king size shiplap headboard Tools Needed: Jig Saw Skill saw Finish Nailer Measuring Tape Marking Pencil 1/16 tile spacers Twine and nail Materials: (9) 1"x6"x8' Pine Board (1) 4'x8' 1/4 Piece of Plywood Liquid Nails or Construction Adhesive 1.5" Finish Nails 1" Wood Screws Directions: 1. Cut the plywood to size. You want your plywood to be 48" x 80". The 4 foot side will be fine but you will have to cut the 8' side down to 80". Measure over to 80", mark with your pencil, and cut using your skill saw. 2. Now you need to cut the arched area on the piece of plywood. To get a precise arch you can use the nail and twine method. See more at: www.plumprettydecoranddesign.com Page "1 of "4 Here's how: A. First measure over 40" and mark. B. From that mark measure down 20" and place your nail. C. Using a piece of twine and your pencil, attach the twine to the nail and your pencil with a 20" gap between the two. D. Now stretch out the twine and mark your circle. Creating a circle with a 40" diameter. E. Next create a pivot point with a board. Meaning use a stationary point that can not move (a clamped board) and place your nail in. This time using a piece of twin and your pencil, attach the twine to the nail and your pencil with a 40" gap between the two. Creating a 80” diameter circle. F. Stretch the twine out, line it up with the edge of the center circle and mark your circle. Do this on both sides creating two arches on each side of the center circle. See more at: www.plumprettydecoranddesign.com Page "2 of "4 3. Now that you have your arch area drawn out cut along the the lines with the Jig Saw. 4. Next Step is attaching your 1"x6"x8' Pine Boards to the plywood. Start at the bottom and work your way all the way to the top with 9 boards. Between each board us a 1/16 tile spacer for even spacing. Apply Liquid Nail or construction adhesive to the back of each board and tack it up the the fish nailer to keep them in place. Once you get all the boards nailed on, turn it over and use wood screws the properly secure the boards to the piece of plywood. See more at: www.plumprettydecoranddesign.com Page "3 of "4 5. Turn the headboard over with the plywood facing up. Using the Jig saw cut the boards at the top following along the arched template of the plywood. Use the edge of the plywood as your guide. 6. Sand the edges of the boards for a smooth finish then paint your desired color. I recommend Alabaster White by Sherwin Williams for a white farmhouse look. 7. You can either attach hangers for hanging on the wall (you will need to anchor into the wall due to the weight), or you can attach legs to the bottom so it will have support from the floor. I recommend using a 2"x6" for this. Just attach to the back of the plywood a few inches in on each side. The height of the boards will depend on your bed frame, box spring and mattress. You want the bottom of the headboard to rest and few inches below the top of your mattress. Paint the legs with the same color as the headboard *Remember to paint the sides- so you don't have any wood showing. See more at: www.plumprettydecoranddesign.com Page "4 of "4.

    Historic Context Statement City of Benicia February 2011 Benicia, CA Prepared for City of Benicia Department of Public Works & Community Development Prepared by page & turnbull, inc. 1000 Sansome Street, Ste. 200, San Francisco CA 94111 415.362.5154 / www.page-turnbull.com Benicia Historic Context Statement FOREWORD “Benicia is a very pretty place; the situation is well chosen, the land gradually sloping back from the water, with ample space for the spread of the town. The anchorage is excellent, vessels of the largest size being able to tie so near shore as to land goods without lightering. The back country, including the Napa and Sonoma Valleys, is one of the finest agriculture districts in California. Notwithstanding these advantages, Benicia must always remain inferior in commercial advantages, both to San Francisco and Sacramento City.”1 So wrote Bayard Taylor in 1850, less than three years after Benicia’s founding, and another three years before the city would—at least briefly—serve as the capital of California. In the century that followed, Taylor’s assessment was echoed by many authors—that although Benicia had all the ingredients for a great metropolis, it was destined to remain in the shadow of others. Yet these assessments only tell a half truth. While Benicia never became the great commercial center envisioned by its founders, its role in Northern California history is nevertheless one that far outstrips the scale of its geography or the number of its citizens. Benicia gave rise to the first large industrial works in California, hosted the largest train ferries ever constructed, and housed the West Coast’s primary ordnance facility for over 100 years.

  • APA Engineered Wood Construction Guide
    Engineered Wood CONSTRUCTION GUIDE Engineered Wood Construction Guide 2 WOOD The Natural Choice Engineered wood products are a good choice for the environment. They are manufactured for years of trouble-free, dependable use. They help reduce waste by decreasing disposal costs and product damage. Wood is a renewable, recyclable, biodegradable resource that is easily manufactured into a variety of viable products. A few facts about wood. ■ We’re growing more wood every day. Forests fully cover one-third of the United States’ and one-half of Canada’s land mass. American landowners plant more than two billion trees every year. In addition, millions of trees seed naturally. The forest products industry, which comprises about 15 percent of forestland ownership, is responsible for 41 percent of replanted forest acreage. That works out to more than one billion trees a year, or about three million trees planted every day. This high rate of replanting accounts for the fact that each year, 27 percent more timber is grown than is harvested. Canada’s replanting record shows a fourfold increase in the number of trees planted between 1975 and 1990. ■ Life Cycle Assessment shows wood is the greenest building product. A 2004 Consortium for Research on Renewable Industrial Materials (CORRIM) study gave scientific validation to the strength of wood as a green building product. In examining building products’ life cycles – from extraction of the raw material to demolition of the building at the end of its long lifespan – CORRIM found that wood was better for the environment than steel or concrete in terms of embodied energy, global warming potential, air emissions, water emissions and solid waste production.

    ENGINEERED WOOD CONSTRUCTION GUIDE APA THE ENGINEERED WOOD ASSOCIATION Be Constructive WOOD Wood is the right choice for a host of construction applications. It is the earth’s natural, energy efficient and renewable building material. Engineered wood is a better use of wood. It uses less wood to make more wood products. That’s why using APA trademarked I-joists, glued laminated timbers, laminated veneer lumber, plywood and oriented strand board is constructive ... for the environment, for innovative design, and for strong, durable buildings. A few facts about wood. I We’re not running out of trees. One-third of the United States land base – 731 million acres – is covered by forests. About two-thirds of that 731 million acres is suitable for repeated planting and harvesting of timber. But only about half of the land suitable for growing timber is open to logging. Most of that harvestable acreage also is open to other uses, such as camping, hiking, and hunting. Forests fully cover one-half of Canada’s land mass. Of this forestland, nearly half is considered productive, or capable of producing timber on a sustained yield basis. Canada has the highest per capita accumulation of protected natural areas in the world – areas including national and provincial parks. I We’re growing more wood every day.

  • Field Observations and Laboratory Tests of Water Migration in Walls with Shiplap Hardboard Siding
    Field Observations and Laboratory Tests of Water Migration in Walls with Shiplap Hardboard Siding George A. Tsongas, Ph.D., P.E. Dennis P. Govan, AlA Jack A. McGillis Member ASHRAE ABSTRACT In a number of legal cases across the country it has been alleged that hardboard siding performs poorly from a moisture point a/view and thus is not a satisfactory siding material. In one particular case involving an apartment complex of ahout 400 units in the San Francisco Bay area, decay of hoth hardboard siding and wood trim as well as other wood members was noted and has been documentedfor this paper. It was clearly found that the decay was primarily caused by substantial amounts of liquid rainwater leaking behind the siding and other wood members. However, other decay or deterioration (e.g., swelling) ofthe siding was noted in areas where liquid water intrusion was not directly observed. We speculated that liquid water might move laterally behind the siding from leak sites in the building envelope, and that might explain the existence of siding swelling observed at locations some distance horizontally from otherwise obvz'ous leak sites. Deterioration o/the hardboard siding also was found to be caused by a number of other installation problems such as allowing the bottom edge of the siding to be in direct contact with concrete. We also noted swelling ofsome bottom courses afthe siding and speculated that standing water on concrete paving might be wicking up the gypsum sheathing behind the siding. It also was alleged that rainwater was wicking up between the siding laps and causing swelling and cracking ofthe siding.
