ABSTRACT:
A wall structure comprising a multiplicity of elongated wall panel forming members and elongated wall periphery forming members. The wall panel forming members are constructed to extend in horizontal courses with alternate courses being formed of siding elements and bar elements. Each siding element includes panel defining opposed faces simulating logs, opposed side portions having elongated grooves therein and opposed end portions having recesses therein forming lap sections. Each bar element includes opposed panel defining faces simulating mortar, opposed side portions having elongated tongues thereon of a size to engage within the elongated grooves in the side portions of the siding elements and opposed end portions having recesses therein forming lap sections similar to the lap sections in the end portions of the siding elements. The elongated periphery forming members include elongated corner, base plate, and top plate elements. Each elongated corner element includes end portion receiving faces intersecting one another at an approximate right angle, each of which has a width greater than the distance between the panel defining faces of the siding elements and an elongated channel shaped to receive the lap sections of the siding and bar elements spaced outwardly from the face juncture approximately one-half the width thereof. Each elongated base plate element has a planar lower side portion and an upper side portion formed with an elongated tongue or groove of a size to interengage with the groove or tongue of the initial course thereabove. Each elongated top plate element has an upper planar side portion and a lower side portion formed with an elongated tongue or groove of a size to interengage with the groove or tongue of the final course therebelow.
