Definitions

  • the invention relates to panels, in particular plywood panels.
  • the invention relates to a method for installing plywood panels.
  • the invention relates to a structure, in which a plywood panel is attached to a substrate.
  • the invention relates to a wall structure comprising a plywood panel.
  • Plywood panels are widely used. Plywood panels are used in construction, e.g. in walls of a building. Plywood panels can be used in floors. Moreover, plywood panels can be used in vehicles as structural material for floors or walls.
  • Plywood is a type of manufactured timber made from thin sheets of wood, i.e. plywood layers. Plywood layers (made of one or more veneers) are glued together to make plywood panels. Plywood is flexible, inexpensive, workable, re-usable, and can usually be locally manufactured. Plywood is used instead of plain wood because of its resistance to cracking, shrinkage, and twisting/warping, and its general high degree of strength.
  • the veneers, which are used to produce plywood panels are usually turner from wood. When turning the veneers from wood, micro cracks may be formed to the veneers.
  • oriented standard boards OSB
  • OSB oriented standard boards
  • a plywood laminate having a tongue and a corresponding groove or a click-lock edge configuration is known.
  • the tongue comprises portions of at least two plies and at least one of the plies is a higher quality ply.
  • a shiplap with a crusher bead has been applied in wooden floorings and composite wood floorings comprising planks, in US2005/0266200 , CA2275848 , US6179942 , and US2007/0193179 ; to account for swelling.
  • An embodiment of the invention eases the process of fixing panels to a substrate such that uneven swelling, contraction or expansion properties of the plywood panel and the substrate can be accounted for.
  • a space may be left to most parts between two panels, wherein the space allows for swelling of the panel or contraction of the substrate.

  • a panel according to an embodiment of the invention.
  • a use of the panel in a building There is also provided a use of the panel in a wall of a building.
  • a use of the panel in a vehicle There is also provided a use of the panel in a vehicle.
  • Plywood is a type of manufactured timber made from thin sheets of wood, i.e. plywood layers. Plywood layers (made of one or more veneers) are glued together using an adhesive to make plywood panels.
  • As the adhesive e.g. a liquid resin may be used. The liquid resin may be dried, such that the adhesive of the finished panel may comprise resin.
  • Plywood panels are widely used. Plywood panels are used in construction, e.g. in walls of a building. Plywood panels can be used in floors. Moreover, plywood panels can be used in vehicles as floor or wall material. Typically a plywood panel is attached to a substrate. In addition to plywood panels, oriented standard boards (OSB) can be used for similar purposes.
  • OSB oriented standard boards
  • Wood such as plywood, is known to absorb moisture in humid conditions. Moistening of wood depends on the environment in which wood is used. The moisture content of wood in saturation (i.e. 100 % relative humidity) is about 30 %. Thus, 1 kg of dry wood may absorb up to 300 g of humidity. When the relative humidity decreases, the amount of water absorbed by wood is defined as an equilibrium moisture content, EMC. For example, when the relative humidity is 60 %, the EMC for wood is about 10 - 12 %, depending on temperature, meaning that 1 kg of dry wood may absorb about 100 g of water (humidity).
  • EMC equilibrium moisture content
  • CME coefficient of moisture expansion
  • HCE hygrometric coefficient of expansion
  • a plywood panel may be fixed to a substrate.
  • the substrate may be e.g. a metal structure.
  • the substrate may be e.g. a metal frame comprising metal bars.
  • Metals are known not to absorb moisture. Therefore metals do not swell in humid conditions.
  • the substrate may be a gypsum substrate.
  • HCE hygrometric coefficient of expansion
  • the substrate may have different thermo-hygro-mechanical properties, such as thermal expansion and/or moisture swelling properties.
  • thermo-hygro-mechanical properties such as thermal expansion and/or moisture swelling properties.
  • plywood panels are known to swell in humid conditions much more than either metal or gypsum substrates. Therefore, if the panels are fixed to a substrate such that a panel is in contact with another panel, swelling may result in internal stress in the panels. These internal stresses may set off warping or cracking of the panels.
  • Thermal expansion is characterized by the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE).
  • CTE coefficient of thermal expansion
  • the CTE for many wooden materials is in the range 5 - 55 ppm/°C, depending on wood and the direction.
  • the CTE for many metals is in the range 12 - 20 ppm/°C.
  • the CTE for a gypsum board is about 16 ppm/°C. Therefore, the plywood panel may expand or shrink differently from a metallic or a gypsum substrate when the temperature changes.
  • thermo-hygro-mechanical properties of the material are generally referred to thermo-hygro-mechanical properties of the material. These properties include the above mentioned properties. These different thermo-hygro-mechanical of different materials should be taken into account in a structure comprising materials with different thermo-hygro-mechanical properties.
  • Fig. 1 shows a perspective view of a plywood panel 101.
  • One of the edges of the panel 101 comprises a tongue 111.
  • the panel limits a groove 121 on the same edge.
  • Some typical measures of the panel are shown in the figure: the length of the panel, L pa , the thickness of the panel, T pa , and the width of the panel, W pa .
  • the panel On the edge opposite to the tongue 111, the panel may comprise a respective tongue and respective groove.
  • the shapes of tongue 111 and the groove 121 may be adapted to the shapes of the respective groove and respective tongue of another similar panel.
  • the panels may be attached to a rigid substrate.
  • the plywood panel may deform during its service life. E.g. moisture may swell the panel, or temperature may contract substrate more than the panel. As described in the background, swelling of the panel 101 in the arrangement may result in internal stresses in the panel, further resulting in warping and/or cracking.
  • a space may be left between the two panels.
  • the space allows for a second panel to expand (swell), even if the second panel is fixed to the substrate.
  • the panels should be attached relatively close to each other in order to build an even surface.
  • Such a narrow space may be formed e.g. by using a spacer.
  • the spacer may be kept between the panels while fixing the second panel to the substrate (assuming that a first panel has already been fixed to the substrate). Thereafter, the spacer may be removed from the space.
  • using a spacer takes some time in the assembling process.
  • Fig. 2a shows, in a side view, a panel 200 according to an embodiment of the invention.
  • the panel 200 comprises a first planar surface 202 and a second opposite planar surface 204, wherein the second surface is parallel to the first surface.
  • the panel 200 of Fig. 2a is made of plywood.
  • the panel 200 comprises plywood layers arranged between the first surface and the second surface, wherein the plywood layers are parallel to the first surface 202 (and the second surface 204).
  • the panel further comprises edges 206 and 208 extending from the boundaries of the first surface 202 to the boundaries of the second surface 204. As a side view of the panel is shown, only two edges are shown.
  • the panel 200 of Fig. 2a has a rectangular shape, whereby the panel comprises four edges.
  • At least one edge 206 comprises a projection 230.
  • the projection 230 protrudes from the first edge 206.
  • the projection 230 protudes in a direction essentially perpendicular to the first edge 206. In Fig. 2a , this direction is horizontal.
  • the projection 230 extends in a direction of the first edge 206, the direction being perpendicular to the plane of the figure 2a .
  • the projection 230 of Fig. 2a extends in the direction of the width of the panel 200, the width being shown in Fig. 1 .
  • the projection 230 extends preferably throughout the edge 206 of the panel 200 in the direction of the width of the panel. If the projection 230 does not extend throughout the edge of the panel, the panel may comprise several projections 230 in the direction of the width of the panel 200.
  • the projection 230 comprises a part of at least one plywood layer. That is, the projection is an integral part of the panel. Therefore, the projection 230 is made of wood or wood and adhesive, wherein the adhesive is used to attach the plywood layers to each other to form the plywood panel.
  • the adhesive may comprise resin, as discussed above.
  • the projection 230 is made of the same material as the rest of the panel 200.
  • the projection 230 can be made to the panel 200 e.g. by machining, milling, or cutting.
  • the projection 230 is arranged on a distance d p from the first surface 202 ( Fig. 2b ). The distance is defined as the distance between the plane of the first surface 202 and the centre of the projection 230.
  • the projection 230 is arranged to support the panel 200. Under compression, e.g. when the plywood panel swells, the projection 230 is arranged to deform. If the compression is small, the projection 230 is elastically, i.e. reversibly, deformed. However, if the compression is large, the projection 230 is also plastically, i.e. permanently, deformed.

  • the projection 230 is arranged in the first tongue 210.
  • the shape of the second groove 250 is adapted to the shape of first tongue 210.

As with the first tongue, the shape of the first groove 220 is adapted to the shape of second tongue 240, when the projection 230 is completely deformed. Because of the tongues and the grooves (i.e. the half lap scarf joint) two panels can be easily adapted to each other, and because of the projection, a space 150 is left in between two such panels (cf. Fig. 3a ).
  • the panel comprises a second edge 208 opposite to the first edge 206 that comprises the projection 230.

  • the second groove 250 is adapted to receive the first tongue 210.
  • the shape of the second groove 250 is adapted to the shape of first tongue 210, when the projection 230 is completely deformed.

  • L t2 L t1 -L p .
  • the shape of the second groove 250 is adapted to the shape of first tongue 210, when the projection 230 is completely deformed. When the projection 230 is not deformed, a space 150 is left between panels ( Fig. 3a ).
  • the thickness of the projection 230, T p may be in the range from 0,5 mm to 3 mm, preferably about 1,5 mm.
  • the thickness of the first tongue 210 (including the thickness of the projection 230), T t1 may be e.g. about half of the thickness of the panel, T pa , or, preferably slightly more, as will be discussed later.

  • the projection could be arranged on the shorter edge.
  • the projection could be arranged on two edges, e.g. on a longer edge and on a shorter edge, or on two equally long edges on a square panel, to allow for swelling, expansion, and/or contraction two directions.
  • Figure 3a shows a structure comprising a substrate 310 and two plywood panels 200a and 200b.
  • the substrate 310 may be e.g. a wall or a frame in a building.
  • the panel 200a is attached to the substrate 310 using attachment means 140a such as a nail or a screw. If the substrate is a metal frame, the attachment means is preferably a screw.
  • the first tongue 210 of the panel 200b is arranged in the second groove of panel 200a, limited by the second tongue 240 of the panel 200a.
  • the panel 200b is supported on the panel 200a. More precisely, the projection 230 of the panel 200b can be supported to the supporting area 232 of the panel 200a.
  • the panel 200b When the panel 200b is in this way supported by the panel 200a, the panel 200b can attached to the substrate 310 using attachment means 140b such as a nail or a screw.
  • attachment means 140b such as a nail or a screw.
  • Fig. 3a at least the panel 200b is substantially dry.
  • a space 150 is left between the panels.
  • the width of space 150 (in the direction of the height of the projection) corresponds to the height of the projection, L p . This applies when installing the panels. If the panels swell, the width of the space 150 decreases.
  • the space 150 does not extend from the first surface 202 to the second surface 240, as the panels are supported by the combination of the projection 230 and the supporting area 232.
  • the attachment means 140a and 140b keep the respective locations of the panels fixed. Therefore the panel 200b swells or expands is such a way that the projection 230 is compressed towards to panel 200a. Under compression, the projection 230 deforms and allows for swelling of the panel 200b.
  • the pressure (i.e. stress) under the supporting area 232 of the panel 200a spreads to the panel 200a within a short distance. Therefore, the compressive stress in the supporting area 232 decreases to the same compressive stress as in the panel 200b, i.e. ⁇ , provided that the cross sectional areas of the panels 200a and 200b are the same. Therefore, the compressive stress is concentrated mainly in the projection 230, and only in a small volume near the supporting area 232.
  • the yield stress may be related to a yield force, i.e. a compressive force, where the material starts to yield.
  • the projection 230 has a first yield force, and the supporting area has a second yield force, wherein the second yield force is greater than the first yield force. This is because of the principle of the stress concentration, even if the plywood panels 200a and 200b have the same compressive yield stress. The compressive stress is thus concentrated into the projection 230.
  • the thickness of the projection 230, T p should be at most one third (1/3) of the thickness of the panel, T pa .
  • the thickness of the projection 230, T p is at most one fifth (1/5) of the thickness of the panel, T pa . It is also possible to exploit the anisotropic properties of plywood, whereby even the yield stress of the projection 230 may be smaller than the yield stress of the rest of the panel 200. This issue will be described in more detail later.

  • OSB oriented standard board

  • the hygrometric coefficient of expansion (HCE), of an OSB panel is much larger than the HCE of a plywood panel. Therefore, plywood panels are better suited for structures comprising material with different hygro-thermo-mechanical properties. Furthermore, the OSB panel comprise more adhesive material than plywood panels. Therefore, the properties of the cross-oriented wooden layers are not as heavily dependent on grain direction in OSC than in plywood. Thus, the anisotropic properties of the plywood layers enable more orientation-specific properties of the projection 230 than the anisotropic properties of the cross-oriented wooden layers in OSB. In particular, if the projection 230 comprises a part of only one projecting plywood layer, the projection is essentially free from adhesives.
