The present disclosure relates generally to surface panels for covering a building surface. The disclosure relates more particularly to a surface panel kit and system including a set of panels for attaching to a support structure. Each of the panels includes opposing ends, and each end includes one of a group of end configurations. A first end configuration is mateable with a first portion of the group and is unmateable with a second portion of the group, and a second end configuration is mateable with a third portion of the group and is unmateable with a fourth portion of the group. The set of panels includes at least three panel types including a first panel type with the first and second end configurations, a second panel type with the first and without the second end configurations, and a third panel type with the second and without the first end configurations.

An underlayment for use between a veneer material and a foundation surface. The underlayment includes a base layer and a series of individual supports extending upwardly from the base layer and being configured to create voids in a layer of bonding material used to adhere the veneer material to the underlayment. Each of the individual supports includes at least one outer wall extending upwardly from the base layer, the outer wall extending at least partially around a perimeter of each of the supports. An internal wall is spaced from the outer wall and extends downwardly toward the base layer. A protrusion forms an overhang beneath which a heating element can be fitted. A liner material is bonded to an undersurface of the base layer and extends beneath the internal wall. A space is defined between the at least one outer wall, the internal wall and the liner material.

The disclosure relates to an outdoor flooring assembly for securing flooring trays to improve stability and wind uplift resistance. The flooring trays each include a plurality of securement mechanisms coupled to a bottom surface thereto, the securement mechanisms designed to interconnect with one another to securely retain adjacent trays together and minimize the risk that any individual tray is dislodged.

The invention discloses a high stable and environment-friendly two-layer parquet and a production method thereof. The parquet comprises a face board and multiple solid wood boards below the face board, the solid wood boards comprise multiple solid wood strips inserted side by side; any adjacent two solid wood strips of the same solid wood board are arranged tightly and alternately, and the face board and solid wood boards are closely bonded with each other by an adhesive. The length directions of the solid wood strips of any adjacent two solid wood boards are vertical to each other; and the length direction of the solid wood strips of the solid wood boards at the two ends of the parquet is vertical to the length direction of the parquet. The invention can effectively reduce the use of high-quality solid wood, save the wood resources and has high stability and high strength.

A framed element includes an insulating core layer, an upper surface layer arranged on the insulating core layer, a frame structure including frame profiles which have been arranged to form at least part of the outer edges of the element and elongated support profiles in the length and/or width direction of the element. The insulating core layer is made of foamed glass or a combination of lightweight aggregates and a fire-retardant resin. The element further includes an elastic sealing compound arranged at least partly between the core layer and the upper surface layer of the element.
