Shiplap is either rough-sawn 25 mm (1 in) or milled 19 mm (3 ⁄ 4 in) pine or similarly inexpensive wood between 76 and 254 mm (3 and 10 in) wide with a 9.5–12.7 mm (3 ⁄ 8 – 1 ⁄ 2 in) rabbet on opposite sides of each edge. [1] The rabbet allows the boards to overlap in this area.
Composite sidings are available in many styles and can mimic the other siding options. Composite materials are ideal for achieving a certain style or 'look' that may not be suited to the local environment (e.g., corrugated aluminium siding in an area prone to severe storms; steel in coastal climates; wood siding in termite-infested regions).
A halved joint is a woodworking joint in which the two members are joined by removing material from each at the point of intersection so that they overlap. The halved joint is differentiated from the lap joint in that the members are joined on edge, rather than on flat.

In the event of a fire this draws hot air up like a chimney, intensifies the fire, and spreads it to the top of the clad area. The fire can then get inside the building through open windows, for example to curtains blowing through windows. [1] In addition to the chimney effect, the cladding material itself can contribute to a fire.
Depending on the diameter of the log, cuts are made from 4 + 1 ⁄ 2 to 6 + 1 ⁄ 2 inches (110 to 170 mm) deep along the full length of the log. Each time the log turns for the next cut, it is rotated 5 ⁄ 8 inch (16 mm) until it has turned 360°. This gives the radially sawn clapboard its taper and true vertical grain.

With respect to wood joinery, this joint, where two long-grain wood faces are joined with glue, is among the strongest in ability to resist shear forces, exceeding even mortise and tenon and other commonly-known "strong" joints. [1] With respect to metal welding, this joint, made by overlapping the edges of the plate, is not recommended for ...
