Stone veneer. Stone veneer is used as a protective and decorative covering for exterior or interior vertical walls and surfaces. The veneer is typically 1 inch thick and must weigh less than 15 pounds per square foot (73 kg/m2) so that no additional structural supports will be required.
The most sought after of this species is located in the great lakes regions. The most commonly used thickness of veneer in the skateboard manufacturing industry today are, 1/17th of an inch (.058 / 1.47mm) for the face and core layers and 1/20th of an inch (.050 / 1.27mm) for the cross band layers of veneer. They are called cross band layers because their grain runs from side to side, opposed to end to end.
