battens (fasteners and supports) (fasteners, <components by general context>, ... Components (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Thin supporting strips, usually of wood, used to hold together boards, panels, or planks of wood in order to join them, give them strength, and prevent warping. Examples of battens are on the reverses of panel paintings and the cross boards on board-and-batten shutters and doors. |

Additional Notes: |
|
Dutch ..... Dunne ondersteunende stroken, meestal van hout, waarmee houten platen, panelen of planken bijeen worden gehouden, zodat het geheel steviger wordt en niet kromtrekt. Ze worden bijvoorbeeld gebruikt aan de achterkant van paneelschilderijen en kruiselings op luiken en deuren. |
