ABSTRACT:
A multi-lap siding formed from a hardboard material is disclosed. The multi-lap siding is rectangular and has generally flat, opposed front and rear surfaces, and an upper leading edge and the lower trailing edge being configured such that the upper leading edge of one siding can cooperate and interfit with the lower trailing edge of another siding to form a continuous siding installation. The lower edge of the front surface of the siding is provided with a lower bead portion. The upper edge of the lower bead portion is defined by a first, V-shaped groove having an angled upper edge, a rounded lower edge and a rounded apex portion. The lower edge of the lower bead portion is defined by the lower edge of the siding and is also rounded. The siding is further provided with at least one central bead portion disposed intermediate the front surface of the siding. The upper edge of the central bead portion is defined by a second V-shaped groove having a configuration similar to the first V-shaped groove. The lower edge of the central bead portion is defined by a substantially vertical cut extending perpendicular to the back surface of the siding. The characteristics of the central bead portion approximate the appearance of the actual overlap between the upper leading edge of one siding and the lower trailing edge of another siding, and by this arrangement, an aesthetically pleasing appearance of a plurality of narrow overlapping panels is achieved.
