Okay Ms. Jopay? Our lesson last meeting is all

about Defects in Timber.
Very good!

Can anyone tell me a short recap on the previous Sir, defects in timber is about

What do you think are the factors that causes the

defects in woods/ timber? The factors that causes the
defects are due to fungi,
Excellent! conversion, and insects.

C. MOTIVATION

This time, we are going to have an activity. Are

you familiar with the game “4 Pics 1 Word”? Yes, we are, sir!

I will show you two sets of pictures (with four

pictures per set). I want you to guess the word Students perform the activity
that best describes the pictures. But this time, we
will integrate it with another game called the
“Genius Cap”. This would the flow of the game:
the first student on the left side will wear the cap
and pass it on her/his right side as the music
plays. Once the music stops, the one who is
wearing the cap will guess the word.
Is everything clear, class? Yes, sir!

B. ANALYSIS

You did a great job, class!

How’s the activity? It was easy, sir!

Class, let me ask you a question from the Sir, those are the types of wood
activity: What do you think are those? joints, I guess.

Well, that’s a lucky guess because it is correct!

Very good.

Now, can someone define to me what is wood Sir, wood joints is a

joint? woodworking process that is
performed to join two pieces of
wood together in order to create
Excellent answer! complicated parts.

What do you think is the purpose of wood Sir. The purpose of wood joints

C. ABSTRACTION

Class, wood joinery is a part of wood working

that involves joining pieces of woods,
engineered lumber, or synthetic substitutes to
produce more complex items.

There are different types of wood joints, we have

here first the butt joint.

A butt joint is nothing more than when one piece

of wood butts into another (most often at a right
angle, or square to the other board) and is
fastened using mechanical fasteners. This type of
joint is often used in wall framing on
construction sites.
Kindly read the second type of wood joint.
“Miter joint” is another word
for an angled cut—and the saw
that makes the cut. In the term
“miter joint,” it refers to two 45-
degree angled cuts where the
pieces of wood adjoin to create
a 90-degree angle. While the
most common miter joints are
made of 45-degree angles, miter
butt joints can be cut at any
range of angles.

Thank you! Here’s some tips in making miter

joints. Be prepared to make small adjustments to
the angle of your miter because most cuts for
door and window frames are not precisely 45
degrees due to slight variations in drywall or
other construction materials.
These joints consist of a tongue,
Then we have here the tongue and groove joint. or a ridge, on one piece of wood
Class,kindly read. and a groove, or channel, on the
other. The tongue slides into the
groove to create a strong joint.
These joints are commonly used
for elements that lie flat on a
surface, such as hardwood
floors.
If you are cutting your own tongue-and-groove
joint, the tongue should be one-third of the
thickness of the wood. For example, if a board is
¾” thick, the tongue should be ¼”.

Next we have here the mortise joint. It is also

known as mortise-and-tenon joints. While they
look like butt joints from the outside, a
protruding element is carved into one piece (the
tenon) which slides into a corresponding recess
(the mortise) in the other piece. With the
increased gluing surface area where the two
wood pieces are joined, it is a significantly
stronger—and more elegant—alternative to a
butt joint.
Tip: Always cut the mortise first. It is easier to
trim the tenon to fit the mortise than it is to
approach the task the other way around.
Half-lap joint, the ends of the
th
And then kindly read the 5 wood joint. two adjoining pieces of wood
are reduced to half their
thickness at the point where
they overlap. Half-lap joints are
commonly used in framing and
also in furniture construction,
due to their great advantage: the
frame remains uniform in
thickness while other joints
often result in a greater (an
inconsistent) thickness as
compared to the rest of the
structure.
Tip: Thin pieces of wood can be weakened
significantly when they lose half of their
thickness, so half-lap joints are best suited to
thicker pieces of wood.
Kindly read the next one.Tip:
The dado cut should go no deeper than 1/3 into
the wood. If you are using a piece that is ¾”
thick, keep the cut to ¼”.
Then kindly read the description in rabbet joint.
How about the pocket-hole joint. Kindly read.
Tip: The screws will hold better in face or edge are then attached with a self-
grain, so avoid screwing into end grain.
Then we have here the dowel joint. Dowel joints
are more difficult to create than pocket hole
joints, they are less popular now than they once
were. To make a dowel joint, drill holes where
the two pieces meet, place a small amount of
glue in them, insert the dowels, and then clamp
The dado joint gets its name
from the Italian word for a die
or plinth. It resembles a groove
—a trench cut into one piece of
wood parallel to the grain that
another piece of wood slides
into. But unlike a groove, a
dado runs perpendicular to the
grain. Dado joints are most
commonly used in shelving
systems like cabinets and
bookshelves.
Another joint with an unusual
name (in this case from a
Middle French word meaning
“to force down”), a rabbet joint
is related to the dado joint and
consists of an open-sided
channel along the end of a piece
of wood. It often matches a
corresponding cut in the piece it
is paired with to create a double
rabbet joint.
Pocket-hole joints rely on
fasteners, namely pocket-hole
screws. They are effectively a
butt joint with a small pocket-
hole drilled into one of the
pieces of wood. The two pieces

the pieces together.
Tip: Expandable fluted dowels grow by about
1/32” when they come in contact with moisture
in glue which can help ensure a tightly fitted
joint.
Biscuit Joint, this unusual joint is formed by
carving two curved grooves into two pieces of
wood, and then joining them with a wood biscuit
that is glued into place.
Biscuit joints are typically used with sheet goods
like plywood and particle board but can also be
used with solid panels of different types of
wood. The advantage of this joint is that it is
entirely invisible creating a perfectly flush
surface.
Tip: It’s important that the glue inside the
biscuit joint is evenly distributed for the best fit.
Use an acid brush (also called a glue brush) to
assure a uniform coating.
Lastly the dovetail joint, it is one of the most
distinctive joints and is recognized as a sign of
expert craftsmanship. They are made of a series
of interlocking pins and tails in trapezoidal
shapes. They were long covered by veneers, but
today they are typically left visible in
appreciation of the skill involved in creating
them.
Tip: Key to successfully creating dovetail joints
is accurately marking your baselines before
starting. A dull gauge will tear the fibers of the
wood, so make sure yours is sharp.

D. APPLICATION

Let’s see if you can now apply what you have

learned. This time you will be grouped into 3,
you are going to draw a design of a wood
furniture, then choose only one of the wood
joinery that you want to apply in order to create
the project. Then you will present it in class and
explain why did you use that certain wood joint.
Is the instructions clear? Yes, sir!

Alright! Let’s start.

IV. EVALUATION
Direction: answer the following questions.
1. What is the definition of wood joints in your
own word?
2. Why is wood joinery important?
3. Give at least three types of wood joints and
then describe each.
