Project: FRP Structural Wall Panels For Commercial Building Application
The Challenge
Our client was recently challenged with developing a cost-effective alternative to traditional building materials for their commercial building that could withstand harsh natural environments. Since the initial design company left the project, we were given a short window to custom design, engineer, and manufacture a solution.
Solutions
With our advanced consulting engineering services and modern software simulations and design tools, we were able to custom design and engineer FRP panels to meet their specific needs. We fabricated foam core, multi-web designed FRP panels using the VARTM Infusion process, which provided variable web density, panel thickness, and skin thickness. The end result was a composite wall panel that is impervious to wind, rain, moisture, rot, temperature extremes, and UV exposure. This was the perfect solution for a commercial building that must withstand harsh weather conditions. Our ISO 9001 quality program ensured that every part was tested and inspected before shipping, resulting in our team delivering only the highest quality composite foam core panels. The insulative value of the panel reached as high as R6 per inch of thickness, depending on the FRP wall panel design.
