Each " panel " is separate. The battens are fixed to the horizontal rails and the 2 nd panel battens just sit on top of the bottom row - until everything shrinks that is and then there will be about a 8 mm gap between panels. Its F14 Green hardwood and its going to move like a bitch, but architects are brilliant and I'm sure they know best. 1200 between fixings with no mid span fixing :rofl: :rofl: :pan :pan
1200 :pan I spose looking at a photo the 1300 casement windows are no guide to guestimate because of the perspective... well... no guide to a dummy like me :rofl: NO MID SPAN FIXINGS??? There will be... in about oh, eight months (Summer then Autumn) and in Winter there you'll be with scaff and cleats charging double-time I hope. It's pretty, but conventional but once that beautiful hardwood bows it's gunna look shocking. What's the logical fix Mr Builder please (without running an all too sensible horizontal batten down the middle of the join to fix the joins)?
