Abstract:
1. A modular board kit for constructing a board assembly of a desired length on a support structure on location, the kit comprising: a plurality of boards, each of the boards comprising at least first and second horizontal edges, and at least first and second vertical edges; a plurality of horizontal frame members for mounting to the support structure in a substantially horizontal manner, each horizontal frame member comprising a horizontal frame member receiving portion adapted to receive a respective one of the first and second horizontal edges of a single one of said boards to support the plurality of boards in series from a first board to a last board; a pair of vertical frame members for mounting to the support structure in a substantially vertical manner, a first vertical frame member of the pair of vertical frame members adapted to be disposed adjacent a first vertical edge of the first board, and a second vertical frame member of the pair of vertical frame members adapted to be disposed adjacent a second vertical edge of the last board; and at least one transition piece adapted to couple an adjacent two of the plurality of boards in series, the at least one transition piece comprising oppositely facing board receiving portions and oppositely facing horizontal frame member receiving portions, such that when the at least one transition piece is positioned between the adjacent two of the plurality of boards in series, each oppositely facing board receiving portion is adapted to receive a respective vertical edge of one of the adjacent two of the plurality of boards in series, and each oppositely facing horizontal frame member receiving portion is adapted to receive a respective horizontal frame member; whereby the plurality of boards, the at least one transition piece, and the vertical and horizontal frame members may be utilized to construct a board assembly of the desired length on the support structure on location.
