Surface Presentation Panel
20220268030 · 2022-08-25 ·

A presentation panel includes base beams having spaced slots and multiple presentation members attached to the base beams. The presentation members are parallel and laterally spaced, and include laterally outer most members and multiple intermediate members. Each intermediate presentation member has a respective portion received by a respective slot of each base beam. A terminal portion of each base beam extends laterally beyond a first laterally outer most presentation member. An edge of a second laterally outer most presentation member extends laterally beyond ends of the base beams opposite the terminal portions thereof for engaging base beams of an adjacent presentation panel when said presentation panel and adjacent presentation panel are installed adjacently on a host structure.

Lining method and lining

A lining method includes fixing a backing strip in a frame shape to a concrete surface of already-placed concrete so that the backing strip protrudes from the concrete surface; disposing a filler inside a frame of the backing strip; making edges of a plurality of lining plates butt against each other at a position of the backing strip to cover the backing strip and the concrete surface; and joining the edges of the lining plates by seal welding.

Self-spacing lap siding product

A lap siding product with a unique shiplap joint that spaces abutting pieces of siding correctly from each other without installer measurements. The shiplap joint comprises a bottom element and a top element. A lap siding panel or board has a bottom element shiplap joint at one end, and a top elements shiplap joint at the other end. The corresponding ends of two lap siding panels or boards (i.e., one bottom element and one top element) together form the unique shiplap joint of the present invention. One or more drainage channels or grooves help re-direct water from the joint, and at least one of the channels or grooves also provides a visual element for proper spacing. An engineered “stop” on the underside of the top element also helps space the pieces of siding correctly, without requiring measurement during installation.

BOARD AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING A BOARD
20210324635 · 2021-10-21 ·

A board consisting at least of a substrate formed at least of a gypsum-based and/or cement-based basic material layer. The board is provided with a chamfer extending through the basic material layer.

Floor panel comprising a ceramic material or a natural stone

The present disclosure relates to a floor panel, comprising a laminate of a core layer, comprising a ceramic or mineral material and a binder a first pair of opposite edges, said first pair of opposite edges comprising complementary coupling parts allowing to mutually couple of plurality of floor panels to each other, a top layer, comprising a ceramic material or a natural stone, wherein the side of the core layer facing the top layer comprises a reinforcement layer, locally having a higher density than the density of the rest of the core layer.

FAÇADE SYSTEM
20210317667 · 2021-10-14 ·

A plank (10) for a façade system comprises a facia (12), a joining lip (20), and a hook (30). The joining lip (20) is recessed behind and extends alongside the facia (12) to overlap with an adjacent plank. The hook 30 extends behind the facia to engage a wall-mounted retainer (38, FIG. 3D). The plank 10 comprises a rail 26 to conceal the hook (30). In one aspect, the rail 26 extends beyond the hook to abut the wall, to restrict a tilt of the plank. In one aspect, the joining lip 20 comprises alignment features (22) for positioning another retainer (40, FIG. 3D). In one aspect, the facia (12) comprises blind grooves (52, FIG. 8B) mimicking inter-plank interstitial grooves. The aspects individually and combined reduce the resources required for covering a large wall area with aligned cladding facias.

CLADDING PANEL

A cladding panel comprising a top multi-film layer and a base layer configured for connection to a substrate, the top multi-film layer including at least an external substantially transparent film and a granular film adjacent to the external substantially transparent film. Disclosed are also methods of producing the cladding panel and kits of cladding panels.

Board and method for manufacturing a board

A board consisting at least of a substrate formed at least of a gypsum-based and/or cement-based basic material layer. The board is provided with a chamfer extending through the basic material layer.

VERTICAL JOINT SYSTEM FOR A SURFACE COVERING PANEL
20210214953 · 2021-07-15 · ·

A vertical joint system for a surface covering panel having an upper and lower surfaces, and a plurality of sides located between the upper and lower surfaces. The joint system has a male part along at least one side and a female part along an opposite side. The female part has a protrusion that extends from the lower surface and an outer most female surface on the protrusion. The male part has a recess that opens onto the lower surface with a portion of the recess forming an inner most male surface. The outer most female surface and the inner most male surface arranged so that when the male part of one surface covering panel is engaged with a female part of a second surface covering panel the outer most female surface overlies the inner most male locking surface at a first location and a second location.

SET OF MUTUALLY LOCKABLE PANELS
20210254350 · 2021-08-19 ·

A set of mutually lockable panels comprises a first panel having an edge including a male part and a second panel having an edge including a female part for receiving the male part of the first panel in unlocked condition of the panels. The male part has an outer side which, in locked condition of the panels, is directed to the second panel in a direction substantially parallel to the front face of the first panel, and an opposite inner side which is provided with a locking surface. The female part comprises a locking member, which is pivotable about a pivot axis that extends substantially parallel to the edge of the second panel and an actuator for rotating the locking member from its unlocked condition to a locked condition of the panels.
