A JOINT FOR WALL PANELS MADE OF CROSS LAMINATED TIMBER
The present invention relates to wall panels made of a cross laminated timber (CLT) and to such wall panel joints. Each side edge (5) of the wall panel (1) comprises a protrusion (51) extending thereof and a groove (52) adjacent to the protrusion (51). At the protrusion (51) a heel (53) is formed so that upon assembly of two adjacent wall panels (1) the heel (53) of one wall panel (1) is inserted into the groove (52) of another adjacent wall panel (1) and both assembled wall panels (1) form a wedge space (93) defined by the heels (53) and protrusions (51) of both assembled wall panels (1). The joint further comprises two wedges (30) where upon assembly of the two adjacent wall panels (1) both wedges (30) can be inserted into the wedge space (93) forming an interference fit between both wedges (30) and both wall panels (1).
