  5. Treenail - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treenail

    Increased water content causes wood to expand, so that treenails gripped the planks tighter as they absorbed water. [11] However, when the treenail was a different wood species from the planking, it usually caused rot. Treenails and iron nails were most common until the 1780s when copper nails over copper sheathing became more popular. [3]

  7. Scarf joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scarf_joint

    In woodworking, there are two distinctly different categories of scarf, based on whether the joint has interlocking faces or not. A plain scarf is simply two flat planes meeting on an angle relative to the axis of the stock being joined, and depends entirely on adhesive and/or mechanical fasteners (such as screws, nails, or bolts) for all strength.

    Plank A has been cut from the middle, and is as wide as the original log. Plank B has been cut closer to the side, and shows slash grain. Flat sawing, flitch sawing or plain sawing is a woodworking process that produces flat-cut or plain-cut boards of lumber. [1]

  9. Butt joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butt_joint

    This is the most common form of the butt joint in building construction. Members are brought together and a number of nails are driven in to hold them in place. The technique of skew-nailing is applied so that nails are not parallel to each other and so resist the pulling apart of the joint. [2]
