Abstract: A decking system including a plank and a plug that is configured for insertion into fastener holes of the plank to conceal the fastener holes. The plug may be formed as part of a plug apparatus which may be an injection molded monolithic structure including a support member and a plurality of the plugs coupled thereto. The support member may be a support strip that extends along a strip axis. The plurality of plugs may be connected to the support strip. Each of the plugs may be configured to be detached from the support strip and inserted into a fastener hole in a plank. The plugs may include a first set of the plugs located on a first lateral side of the support strip and a second set of the plugs located on a second lateral side of the support strip opposite the first lateral side.

Abstract: A post, kit, and railing system including the same. The post system may include a structural post, a plurality of corner covers, and a plurality of cover plates. The structural post may extend along a longitudinal axis. The plurality of corner covers may be configured to be coupled to the structural post to form a configurable post assembly in which the plurality of corner covers form longitudinal corner sections and a longitudinal gap exists between adjacent ones of the plurality of the corner covers. The plurality of cover plates may be configured to be coupled to the configurable post assembly to fill in selected ones of the longitudinal gaps so that remaining ones of the longitudinal gaps can be used for coupling railing infills to the configurable post assembly to form any one of a corner post, an end post, or a straight post in a railing system.

Abstract: A laminated composite article having a core component and laminate sheet. The laminate sheet is disposed and overlying at least a portion of the core component. The laminate sheet includes a wear layer and an ink layer. The laminate sheet includes UV absorbers. The UV absorbers are arranged and disposed to provide ink stability to the ink layer. Methods for forming the laminated composite article are also disclosed.
