Not to be mistaken, previously specify the size of the attracted panels and start calculation. Consider that when mounting "groove crest" width of the panel decreases by 5 mm. Increase calculations not less than by 10% for unforeseen circumstances: scrap, defects of material or mistake when cutting.
3. Prepare to obreshetkusdelayta for panels timber frame construction, fixing by screws on wall each rail. Observe distance between them not less than 50 cm from each other. Force down furring taking into account fastening of panels at right angle in relation to rails. For example, if the horizontal arrangement of laying is chosen, have rails vertically.
4. Sheathe panels to stenynarezhta of the panel of necessary length. If you sheathe wall vertically, begin mounting from corner.
