Abstract:
1. A method of making a structural sheet comprising the steps of: a. creating a first slat by joining rectangular wooden strips end to end and side to side; b. creating a second slat by joining rectangular wooden strips end to end and side to side; c. orienting said first slat so that the strips of said first slat are aligned diagonally; d. orienting said second slat so that the strips of said second slat are aligned diagonally; e. placing a first adhesive material on a surface of said first slat; f. placing said second slat on said first adhesive material with the strips of said second slat aligned orthogonally to the strips of said first slat; g. creating a third slat by joining rectangular wooden strips side to side and end to end; h. orienting said third slat so that the strips are aligned diagonally; i. placing a second adhesive material on one of said first and second slats; j. placing said third slat on said second adhesive material oriented so that the strips of said third slat are orthogonal to the strips of the adjacent slat; k. applying heat and pressure to said slats to fuse them together into a precursor board; l. cutting from said precursor board a structural panel of desired length and width such that the strips of each slat intersect the edges of the structural panel edges at a substantially forty five degree angle: m. joining a plurality of said structural panels side by side and end to end to create a precursor sheet of predetermined length and width; and n. cutting from said precursor sheet a rectangular structural sheet of desired length and width such that the panels of each precursor sheet intersect the edges of the structural sheet at a substantially forty five degree angle; whereby a structural sheet can be created of a length and width greater than the width and length of the component structural panels.
