Abstract:
A out-of-doors prefabricated, pre-engineered vertical wall structure constructed entirely of pressure treated wood capable of functioning as a sound barrier and/or a visual screen, said wall structure being comprised of successive individual wall sections tightly arranged in an end-to-end pattern, means joining immediately adjacent wall sections together end-to-end and occupying the entire space between the sections so that adjacent wall sections are devoid of noise leaks, said means comprising upright timber posts having below and above ground portions located one post between each pair of immediately adjacent wall sections, each of said posts being rectangular in cross section and having flat surfaces facing the ends of immediate adjacent wall sections on opposite sides of said post, upright pairs of spaced cants secured to said flat surfaces so as to form upright channels extending upwardly from above the below ground section to the upper ends of the posts, each pair of said cants being spaced apart to receive one end of one of said wall sections in a tight relation between said cants, each of said cants having two similar right angle sides and a bigger hypotenuse side, one of said right angle sides abutting a flat surface on the adjacent post and the other right angle side abutting an adjacent surface on the wall section closest to the adjacent post, a pair of said cants being so mounted on each post as to form said channels.
