How it works
Each stave has a rounded bead on one edge and a matching hollow cove on the other. Because the joint can pivot, the boards follow a curve while staying tightly locked together, sealing the wall against heat and moisture.
Where to use it
- Saunas, including barrel and round saunas, where a tight wall keeps the heat in
- Round cabins and other curved walls
- Boat building, where bead and cove strips follow the curve of the hull
