   Similarly, wood supports respond significantly to changes in RH. Wood grains tend to swell perpendicular to the grain axis when they are exposed to moisture. [5] As a wet ground layer is applied to the surface of a wood support, the wood in contact with the layer swells while the back of the panel remains unchanged.

3. Panelling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panelling

   Panelling (or paneling in the United States) is a millwork wall covering constructed from rigid or semi-rigid components. [1] These are traditionally interlocking wood , but could be plastic or other materials.

   Thermal insulation – CLT panels provide air tightness and great thermal insulation to buildings as the thermal conductivity (U) of a panel is approximately 0.3458 W/m 2 K. [18] Other common building materials can have U values ranging from 0.4 to 2.5 W/m 2 K. [19] The various layers of wood also serve as a thermal mass, which can help reduce ...

   Wood will expand and contract across the grain, and a wide panel made of solid wood could change width by a half of an inch, warping the door frame. By allowing the wood panel to float, it can expand and contract without damaging the door. A typical panel would be cut to allow 1/4" (5 mm) between itself and the bottom of the groove in the frame.

6. Particle board - Wikipedia

   Particleboard with veneer. Particle board, also known as particleboard or chipboard, is an engineered wood product, belonging to the wood-based panels, manufactured from wood chips and a synthetic, mostly formaldehyde-based resin or other suitable binder, which is pressed under a hot press, batch- or continuous- type, and produced.

7. Clapboard - Wikipedia

   These boards eventually go grey as the tannins are washed out from the wood. More recently clapboard has been tarred or painted—traditionally black or white due to locally occurring minerals or pigments. In modern clapboard these colors remain popular, but with a hugely wider variety due to chemical pigments and stains.
