Flush Paneling Flashcards
Flush Paneling: three considerations
matching:
adjacent veneers,
veneers in panels,
panels in room.
most common,
as sliced off log, every other piece turned over,
adjacent leaves form symmetrical pattern.
bookmatching
consecutive pieces, placed side by side.
slip matching
no sequence, different flitches may be used
random matching
alternating bookmatched veneer pieces regardless.
running match
veneer pieces trimmed to equal widths in each panel
balance match
even # leaves, uniform width, so a veneer joint in center of panel
center match
premanuf. panels typ 4x8’, from single flitch (yields 6–12 panels), field cut to fit (doors/openings), so some loss of grain continuity. least expensive.
warehouse matching
panels of uniform width,
manufactured for specific job,
veneers arranged in sequence.
sequence matching
most expensive. manufactured to precisely fit the room, line up with every obstruction, grain continuity not interrupted
blueprint matching
flush paneling hung @ wall with:
Z clips, or
wood cleats cut at angle.
flush joint, possible slight bevel
butt joint
veneer backer at joint gap
reveal joint
solid wood over joint
batten joint
solid wood frame, containing individual panels.
stile and rail paneling:
stile vs rail
rails = horizontal, stiles = vertical.
stile and rail panels held in place w:
grooves cut in sides of frames,
or sticking: individual molding pieces.
to allow for movement w moisture panels are set
loosely
individual panels are joined w
dowels or splines for flush edges
hpdl
high pressure decorative laminate
layers of kraft paper,
impregnated w phenolic resins,
overlaying w patterned/colored sheet,
and layer melamine resin.
hot pressed under high pressure.
adhered to backing.

hpdl thickness:
general purpose vs post-forming
general-purpose: 0.05”
post-forming: 0.04”,
hpdl:

w decorative papers throughout thickness.
eliminates dark line @ edge when trimmed.

class 1 or A (w approved substrate/adhesive)
