ABSTRACT:
Panels for construction each include a concave jointing element which is embedded in a panel body at the upper end surface and a cylindrical body provided in the concave jointing element and extending from the bottom surface of the concave jointing element to a lower end of the panel body, and a convex jointing element held inside the cylindrical body. After the panels are disposed vertically, the convex jointing element held by the cylindrical body of an upper stage panel is lowered so as to engage with the concave jointing element of a lower stage panel. As a result, the upper and lower panels are jointed with each other. The construction of the panels can be performed in a short time without requiring techniques of skilled workers and time, and can obtain structures having a high strength with a beautifully finished surface.
