Help with cabinet construction:drawer divider frames

| Posted in General Discussion on
I’d love to get advice from woodworkers above my own pay grade!
I am building a fairly large (60″ wide, 18′ deep) solid wood chest of drawers.
The carcass itself will be dovetailed. I plan on having 3 drawer divider frames which will have a vertical panels separating them at the center line.
My question to the forum:
What is the best way of attaching those frames to the carcass sides that will give structural rigidity but allow for wood movement?
Thanks in advance

Dovetail both horizontal and vertical dividers. Another good FWW article "anatomy of a chest of drawers"
