Abstract:
In a method of laying and installing rectangular panels having a first and a second parallel long side ( 701, 702 ) and having a first and a second parallel short side ( 801, 802 ), the panels are installed in parallel panel rows extending along the long sides of the panels. An alignment panel ( 1 ) is coupled to the first long side ( 701 ) of each panel of a first panel row ( 100 ) before a next panel ( 102 ) of the first panel row ( 100 ) is installed.

Claim (Index 4):
The method of  claim 1 , the method comprising the following steps:\n (a) laying a first panel of the first panel row; (b) coupling a first provisional alignment panel to the first long side of the first panel in such a manner that the first provisional alignment panel has a portion that extends beyond the first panel along its first long side; (c) subsequently to step (b), coupling a second panel of the first panel row both to the second short side of the first panel and to the second long side of the portion of the first provisional alignment panel that extends beyond the first panel, (d) subsequently to step (c), coupling a further provisional alignment panel to the first long side of a previously laid panel of the first panel row in such a manner that the further provisional alignment panel has a portion that extends beyond the previously laid panel along the first long side of the previously laid panel;\n (e) subsequently to step (d), coupling a further panel of the first panel row both to the second short side of a previously laid panel of the first panel row and to the first long side of the portion of the further provisional alignment panel that extends beyond the previously laid panel; \n (f) repeating steps (d) and (e) until a desired length of the first panel row is achieved; \n (g) installing at least a second panel row adjacent to the first panel row, each panel of the second panel row being coupled to the second long side of at least one of the panels of the first panel row; and \n (h) removing the provisional alignment panels.
