Set the splines into the grooves of the fixed
(standing) panel. Bring your connecting panel
into position over the bottom plate, tilted slightly

Plumb the panel in both directions. It may be
necessary to tack the bottom of the panel to
hold it in place while the plumbing process
takes place. Once the panel is plumb in both
directions, nail both sides of the spline seam
and the sill plate with 8d nails at 6” o.c. (You
may have to brace the wall.)

steP 6. toP Plate

Repeat the procedures for the remaining wall
panels. When you get to a corner or opening
make sure to check the panel dimensions
before standing the panel. (This panel may
need to be trimmed to fit the location properly.)
