Precast Insulated Concrete Sandwich Panel Wall System

The thermomass building insulation system complies with section j of the bca and is a fully integrated highly energy efficient insulated concrete sandwich wall system.

Precast insulated concrete sandwich panel wall system.

An insulated sandwich wall panel consists of two wythes a continuous layer of concrete separated by an insulated void. Solid sandwich and thin shell. Carboncast high performance insulated wall panels are composed of two concrete wythes separated by continuous insulation c i. These can be panelized and erected in either a horizontal or vertical position and used on all types of structures from residential to commercial.

A composite sandwich panel built to comply with today s continuous insulation code requirements. Panels generally span vertically between foundations and floors or roofs to provide the permanent wall system but may also span horizontally between columns. Thin wall is a structural load bearing insulated precast building envelope system that features composite action between concrete wythes. Each concrete layer also known as a wythe can vary in thickness and can be connected with one of many different types of systems.

The sandwich wall panel process provides a low cost thermally efficient and decorative alternative to traditional brick and mortar construction. This combination is also completely fire resistant and sound transmission is reduced allowing intrusive noise to be kept at a minimum. With very low thermal conductivity the high strength c grid connectors help deliver a sandwich wall panel with insulation values up to r 37 depending on the thickness and type of foam insulation. We create insulated precast wall panels based on the architectural and structural specifications of a.

The system enables a very energy efficient building with edge to edge eps or xps insulation without thermal bridges and uses less concrete than traditional structural wall panels. Because of the wall panel s three layered structure it is sometimes referred to as a sandwich wall panel. Every precast wall panel has a thick layer of energy efficient thermal insulation integrally sandwiched between a very durable concrete interior and a unique beautiful exterior finish. Precast concrete wall systems can be comprised of a variety of shapes and wall types.

In this report precast prestressed concrete sandwich wall panels. Typically precast concrete wall systems fall into three basic categories. The external skin is connected to and supported the internal skin using proprietary plastic ties. With the introduction of edge fabcon provides our customers with a precast panel that meets the market need for edge to edge insulation with two load bearing faces and an impressive level of thermal performance.
