ABSTRACT:
A wall panel construction comprising prefinished wall panels of fire resistive material, such as gypsum board, wherein the opposed vertical edges have secured thereto lateral edge members of particular configuration. Initially, the lateral edge members have a flaring configuration exteriorly of the plane of the finished surface of said panels, wherein a filler is applied to provide about planar continuity between the outwardly flaring surface of the lateral edge member and the eventually finished surface of the panel member. Thereafter, finishing by sanding and squaring produces a trued panel to which is applied to decorative coating to produce a finished panel member. Texturized paint or wall covering may be laminated or adhesively secured to the entire exposed finished surface of the panel. Unsecured flaps of the wall covering may also be provided. In either case, because of the trueness of the lateral edges thusly formed in the panels, like panels, which may be secured to supporting structure such as studs, in side-by-side abutting relationship form almost perfect abutment seams, which are barely discernible upon visual inspection. The thusly formed wall construction utilizing a plurality of the disclosed invention panels provides a fire resistive, Class A, fire-rated wall, which is particularly adaptable for mobile home construction and other interior wall construction, wherein ease of fabrication and erection of the panels, into the finished wall are easily and economically obtained.
