A method for forming of a building panel with a surface including a thermosetting resin such that tension created during curing of the surface is reduced or eliminated.

A solid wood composite floor base material includes a central transverse grain core plate, insertion strips on two sides of the central transverse grain core plate, a surface layer, a bottom layer panel, and a longitudinal grain batten. The longitudinal grain batten is embedded in the middle of the central transverse grain core plate in the length direction. The central transverse grain core plate is divided into a left part and a right part by the middle longitudinal grain batten, i.e., a left central transverse grain core plate and a right central transverse grain core plate. The middle longitudinal grain batten, the left central transverse grain core plate and the right central transverse grain core plate form a fishbone-shaped wood grain structure.

A blended wood interior trim molding assembly (e.g., a blended wood interior door stop assembly) can include a first layer of engineered wood material having a first, generally rectangular cross-sectional thickness, and a second layer of wood material having a second, generally rectangular cross-sectional thickness. The second layer of wood material is joined to the first layer of engineered wood material at a planar interface. Together, the first layer of engineered wood material and the second layer of wood material have a total thickness, with the second, generally rectangular cross-sectional thickness being greater than or equal to at least about fifteen percent (15%) of the total thickness of the first layer of engineered wood material and the second layer of wood material.

Exemplary air amplifiers described herein can utilize a high-pressure stream of gas to accelerate a low-velocity stream of gas to provide a high-velocity, high-volume stream of gas. This high-velocity, high-volume stream of gas can generate unwanted noise as the high-velocity, high-volume stream of gas propagates through the air amplifier. The exemplary air amplifiers described herein can include can passively and/or actively suppress, for example, diminish, re-tune, or even completely cancel, the unwanted noise as the high-velocity, high-volume stream of gas propagates through these exemplary air amplifiers. The exemplary air amplifiers described herein can include one or more absorption materials to passively suppress the unwanted noise generated by the high-velocity, high-volume stream of gas. The exemplary air amplifiers described herein can generate multiple noise suppression waves to actively suppress the unwanted noise generated by the high-velocity, high-volume stream of gas. The multiple noise suppression waves can destructively combine with the unwanted noise generated by the high-velocity, high-volume stream of gas to suppress the unwanted noise.

A lightweight building board element, wherein the element has the shape of a first spatially extending wave, wherein the upper side of said element has at least one wave peak and the lower side of said element has at least one wave trough, wherein the first wave expands transversally or radially, and wherein the at least one wave peak and the at least one wave trough exist in the form of a second wave, and wherein the lightweight building board element contains or consists of bonded wood fibers or bonded wood shavings or bonded wood fibers and wood shavings.

A decorative sheet in which squashing of an embossed shape is suppressed when bonded to an adherend, even when an embossed shape is deeply formed to improve the designability and texture of the decorative plate. More specifically, a decorative sheet having a laminate sequentially including a base material sheet, a transparent resin layer, and a surface-protecting layer in the thickness direction, wherein (1) the decorative sheet has an embossed projection and depression pattern on the surface-protecting layer side, (2) the projections of the embossed projection and depression pattern are rising portions successively connected to the depressions, and are projected from a reference plane, the reference plane being a portion of the surface of the surface-protecting layer without the embossed projection and depression pattern, and (3) the surface of the surface-protecting layer has a maximum profile peak height Rp specified in JIS B0601 (2001) of 30 μm or more.

A modular flooring system for performance weightlifting and similar activities is provided. The modular flooring system is constructed from one or more individual flooring modules that are interlocked and connected together to provide a customized flooring surface platform. The modular flooring system can include a lifting platform module having a hardwood top surface layer and a subfloor construction. The modular flooring system can include a drop-zone platform module having a rubberized top surface layer and a subfloor construction designed to absorb and withstand the force impact of dropped weights onto the top surface layer. The subfloor construction of the drop-zone module can include an upper subfloor layer, an intermediate subfloor layer and a lower subfloor layer. The intermediate and lower subfloor layers can each including alternating panel sections with one panel section constructed from a foam-based material.

The present invention provides a transparent resin film which enables visual check of the adhesion state after lamination of the transparent resin film on a picture layer provided on a substrate, a decorative board including the transparent resin film, and a method for producing the decorative board. Provided is a transparent resin film for protecting a picture layer provided on one side of a substrate, the transparent resin film including at least: a thermoplastic resin layer; and an external haze layer on a picture layer side.

A fitting attachable to a cross-laminated panel provides a chase, plumbing space, airflow duct, or wiring route on an edge of the cross-laminated panel. The fitting may run between edges of multiple cross-laminated panels that contain integral hollow members, forming a customizable network of contiguous coplanar routing paths, accessible without installing pipes and wires behind, or in front of the cross-laminated panels. The fitting may also provide a vertical chase for single or multiple cross-laminated panels. The fitting takes advantage of one or more hollow members in the cross-laminated panels to provide contiguous routing paths for wires, pipes, and venting within the cross-laminated panels themselves, extending across any layout of multiple cross-laminated panels. The fitting may additionally serve as mechanical support for attachment of adjacent panels. Further, the fitting may provide structural connection for the CLT panels as required to meet structural code requirements for the building.

Provided is a decorative sheet comprising a base material layer, a transparent resin layer and a surface protection layer in the presented order, wherein at least one of the base material layer and the transparent resin layer is constituted by a resin composition comprising a resin having an ultraviolet absorption wavelength at least at 270 to 300 nm; absorbance All of the surface protection layer at wavelengths from 270 to 300 nm is 0.6 or more; and absorbance A.sub.12 of the transparent resin layer and the surface protection layer at wavelengths from 270 to 300 nm is 2.7 or more, and wherein the decorative sheet can suppress time-dependent degradation caused by ultraviolet ray, and has excellent weather resistance.
