|
architectural woodwork |
custom, shop-fabricated millwork built primarily of lumber and used for interior finish construction and specialty furnishings |
|
|
finish carpentry |
woodwork completed on the job site |
|
|
architectural woodwork standards (AWS) |
standardized aspects of the fabrication of cabinets and other millwork items |
|
|
three grades of millwork |
1. premium 2. custom 3. economy |
|
|
modular casework |
consists of prefabricated cabinets that are selected from a manufacturer's standard product line |
|
|
softwood |
timber from evergreen trees, such as pine and fur |
|
|
hardwood |
timber from deciduous trees, such as oak and maple |
|
|
solid stock |
thick piece of lumber (generally 1/2" or thicker) used alone to form some woodwork component |
|
|
veneer |
thin piece of wood (usually less than 1/16" thick) sliced from a log and glued to a backing of particleboard or plywood, normally 3/4" thick |
|
|
plain sawing |
the most efficient use of the log and is the least expensive of the three methods |
|
|
quarter sawing |
produced by cutting the log into quarters and then sawing perpendicular to a diameter line |
|
|
rift sawing |
provides and even more consistent vertical grain because the saw cuts are always made radially to the center of the tree |
|
|
plain slicing/quarter slicing |
accomplished the same was as they are when cutting solid stock, except the resulting pieces are much thinner |
|
|
rotary slicing |
the log is mounted on a lathe and turned against a knife, which peels off a continuous layer of veneer |
|
|
half-round slicing |
similar to rotary slicing, but the log is cut in half and the veneer is cut slightly across the annular growth rings |
|
|
rift slicing |
accomplished by quartering a log and cutting at a 15 degree angle to the growth rings |
|
|
scribe piece |
an oversized piece of plastic laminate or wood that can be trimmed in the field to follow any minor irregularities of the wall |
|
|
blocking |
required in the stud cavity behind the wall finish |
|
|
stile and rail paneling (raised panel) |
traditional type, composed of vertical pieces (stiles) and horizontal pieces (rails) enclosing a paneled area |
|
|
flush paneling |
built up of thin wood veneers glued to backing panels of particleboard, plywood or other suitable panel product |
|
|
book matching |
veneers are sliced off the log and every other piece is turned over so that adjacent leaves form a symmetrical grain pattern |
|
|
slip matching |
consecutive pieces are placed side by side and the same face sides are exposed |
|
|
random matching |
places veneers in a random sequence, and veneers from different flitches may even be used |
|
|
running match |
alternates book matched veneer pieces, regardless of their width or how many pieces must be used to complete a panel |
|
|
balance match |
utilizes veneer pieces trimmed to equal widths in each panel |
|
|
center match |
has an even number or veneer leaves of uniform widths that there is a veneer joint in the center or fate panel |
|
|
warehouse match |
pre-manufactured panels, normally 4ft wide x 8ft or 10fit long are assembled from a single flitch that yields from six to twelve panels |
|
|
sequence match |
uses panels of uniform width manufactured for a specific job and with veneers arranged in sequence |
|
|
blueprint matching |
panels are manufactured to precisely fit the room and line up with every obstruction so grain continuity is not interrupted |
|
|
plastic laminate |
a thin sheet of material made of impregnating several layers of kraft paper with phenolic resins and overlaying the paper with a patterned or colored sheet and a layer of melamine resin |
|
|
standing trim |
an item of fixed length, such as a door or window casing, that can be installed with a single length of wood |
|
|
running trim |
an item of continuing length, such as a baseboard, chair rail or cornice |
|
|
lacquer |
a coating material with a high nitrocellulose content modified with resins and plasticizers dissolved in a volatile solvent |
|
|
varnish |
consists of various types of resinous materials dissolved in one of several types of volatile liquids |
|
|
polyurethane |
a synthetic material that creates a very hard, durable finish |
|
|
polyesters |
another type of synthetic material that give the hardest, most durable finish possible |
|
|
solid surfacing |
a generic term for homogeneous polymer-based surfacing materials |
|
|
quartz surfacing |
a process by which crushed quartz particles are set in a thermoplastic polyester resin with mineral oxide pigments to create a durable and scratch-resistant surfacing material |
|
|
interior finish |
wall and ceiling finish, including wainscoting, paneling, or other finish, applied either structurally or for decoration, acoustical correction, surface insulation, or similar purposes |
