Adjacent male vertical assembly joining members ( 2 III ) are hereby joined by means of a separate vertical assembly joining profile ( 30 ). Two adjacent edges ( 2 ) of a floor element ( 1 ) can hereby, at the same time, and in the same turning motion, be joined with a floor element ( 1 ) adjacent to the first edge ( 2 I ) and a floor element adjacent to the third or fourth edge ( 2 III and 2 IV respectively).
