Concrete Single Skinned Panels

Concrete Single Skinned Panels

1. Stack-Loaded Systems

   • Dowelled together one on top of another and tied back at each floor level
     • Punched Window
       • Single Panel - Punched window
       • Multipanel - Punched window
     • Spandrell and Mullion
       • Standard Post & Beam
     • Freeform and Curves

2. Floor-by-Floor systems

   • Independant panels supported at each floor level allowing variation
     • Ribbon
       • Spandrell Only
     • Spandrell and Mullion
       • Offset Post & Beam
       • Standard Post & Beam
     • Punched Window
       • Multipanel - Punched window
       • Single Panel - Punched window
         • Portrait Panel
           • a) Standard = 3.23m b) stepped Trailer = 3.68m c) Low Loader trailer = 3.93m
           • Tall Panels that need to be twisted
             • Additional Sockets and turning Shoe required
           • Cladding Support at Midspan of slab edge
             • Stiffen Sab edge design
           • Soft Joint - 2 beads of mastic sealant against closed cell PE foam chords or backing rods
           • Top Joint
             • Raised floor zone - projecting stainless steel box fillet is primary support for cladding and requires 175mm (typical) or upto 225mm (Heavy Duty)
             • Joint above SSL - projection of billet needs to be added to panels overall height
           • Bottom Joint
             • Suspended ceiling zone - requires vertical slot in bracket and slip washers. Stud legnth can be allow for wider cavities readily increased to
             • Joint below slab - minimum edge distance of 100mm to top of pael should be mantained - retraint bracket to become longer
           • Cavity width
             • 50mm width and 250mm wall build up
               • higher insulation material equired as narrow cavity, but acoustic/firestopping material is minimised
             • 100mm width and 225mm wall build up
               • specially fabricated angles cast onto slab edge. Retraint bracket has smaller fixing plate but increased thickness and bolts
             • 150mm width and 250mm wall build up
               • Recess anchor channels into pockets at intervals along slab edge. ALso deeper pocket in slab edge with complicated brackets
         • Landscape Panel
           • Soft Joint - 2 beads of mastic sealant against closed cell PE foam chords or backing rods
           • a) Standard = 3.23m b) stepped Trailer = 3.68m c) Low Loader trailer = 3.93m
           • Cladding Support at Midspan of slab edge
             • Stiffen Slab edge
     • Freeform and Curves

3. Wall Build up of both systems

   • Cast on Facing Materials
     • Brick = 50mm
     • Natural stone
       • Limestone/sandstone = 50 mm
       • Hard Limestones = 30mm
       • Granite = 20mm
   • Core Concrete Panel thickness determenid through storey height
     • <3300mm high = 150mm thick
     • <3800mm high = 175mm thick
   • U value
     • U = 0.27 w/M2K = 75mm
     • U = 0.2 w/M2K = 100mm
