Hello
I'm going to nail horizontal single tongue and groove. If I understand correctly, it should be nailed every 600mm; nailing every 1200mm is not enough, correct?
Is it okay to nail it concealed? That would mean just one nail, so to speak, and the bottom edge is secured by the nailing of the board below? I seem to recall reading somewhere that it is okay to nail concealed.

It should be fine to nail covertly.

"Tongue and groove or rebated panel:
grade G4-0/G4-1, spruce, with a width
maximum 120 and minimum thickness 22, nailed covertly with hot-
dipped galvanized wire nail 75-2,8 alternatively panel screw length 48–60.
Surface treatment: Zinc/Nickel C4, stainless, stainless/acid-resistant, hot-
dipped galvanized. Center distance maximum 600. The nails should be long
enough to penetrate at least 34 into the nailing strip. The screws' length should be
at least double the panel thickness."
