 list:

 vertically. Material should be free of loose knots and all 

 knots of a diameter greater then l inches and free from 

 weather check, rot disfigurements and large pitch pockets 

 that naturally affect the soundness of the stick. Nail 

 the board securely to the sills, girts, plates and studs 

 with 3 - lOd. nails at each member named. Fasten battens 

 with 6d. wire nails placing 2 at each end and 1 on each 

 side of the battens approximately 18 inches apart through- 

 out the length of the batten. Clinch on the inside all 

 projecting nails. This style of siding shall be placed 



as shown on the plan. 



(b) 1" x 8" siding of same specifications as (a) laid 

 horizontally with a lap of 2 inches. Set the first board 

 at the bottom on a 1" x 2" strip nailed to studs. Exercise 

 care in spacing the siding in order that the lap will be 

 equal on each board. Nail siding at top and bottom at 

 each stud with a lOd. wire nail.
