wood plank

Flat timber piece

A wood plank is a long, flat piece of lumber, thicker than a board and typically used in construction, flooring, or decking.

Planks form walkways, platforms, and ship decks.

To walk the plank is the legendary pirate punishment of being forced off a board extended over the sea.

The old barn floor was made of wide oak planks.
