  2. Sandwich panel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandwich_panel

    Sandwich panels are an example of a sandwich-structured composite: the strength and lightness of this technology makes it popular and widespread. Its versatility means that the panels have many applications and come in many forms: the core and skin materials can vary widely and the core may be a honeycomb or a solid filling.

  3. Structural insulated panel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_insulated_panel

    A structural insulated panel, or structural insulating panel, (SIP), is a form of sandwich panel used as a building material in the construction industry. SIP is a sandwich structured composite , consisting of an insulating layer of rigid core sandwiched between two layers of structural board.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandwich-structured_composite

    The most commonly used sandwich theory is linear and is an extension of first order beam theory. Linear local buckling sandwich theory is of importance for the design and analysis of Sandwich plates or sandwich panels, which are of use in building construction, vehicle construction, airplane construction and refrigeration engineering.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expanded_polystyrene_concrete

    Expanded polystyrene (EPS) concrete (also known as EPScrete, EPS concrete or lightweight concrete) is a form of concrete known for its light weight made from cement and EPS (Expanded Polystyrene). It is a popular material for use in environmentally "green" homes.

    Sheets of EPS are commonly packaged as rigid panels (common in Europe is a size of 100 cm x 50 cm, usually depending on an intended type of connection and glue techniques, it is, in fact, 99.5 cm x 49.5 cm or 98 cm x 48 cm; less common is 120 x 60 cm; size 4 by 8 ft (1.2 by 2.4 m) or 2 by 8 ft (0.61 by 2.44 m) in the United States). Common ...

    Can truck prefabricated panels to construction site and assemble on site. Create shell of solid insulation around house, while reducing bypasses common with stick-frame construction. The result is an inherently energy-efficient house. Do not use formaldehyde, CFCs, or HCFCs in manufacturing. True R-values and lower energy costs.

  9. Glass fiber reinforced concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass_fiber_reinforced...

    The theory of sandwich panels and functions of the individual components may be described by making an analogy to an I-beam. The core in a sandwich panel is comparable to the web of an I-beam, which supports the flanges and allows them to act as a unit. The web of the I-beam and the core of the sandwich panels carry the beam shear stresses.
