Honeycomb panel construction methods

Posted June 7th, 2009 by admin

The aluminum Honeycomb panel is structured of the interlining of honeycomb type. It is a kind of a high strength external building material, which was only applied in the aeronautic industry in the past. lightweight wall panels can withstand an external load such as strong gust wind, typhoon and artificial load by distributing uniformly the external concentrated load into the internal hexagonal core column. The strength of dynamic aluminum honeycomb panel is as strong as iron material of the same thickness. Aluminum thin marble panel has the same function as fiberglass thin granite panel. Light weight: 3.70 pounds/sq.

Cores, in comparison to the additional structural value they add, are extremely cost effective. With a core material for sandwich panels, less material is required than with a solid structure. Core material is rock wool with density at 100kg/m3, the rock wool is upright against the surfaces. There are high strength vesicant between rock wools and surfaces. 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. With a sandwich, less material is required than with a solid structure.

Typically, an adhesive is used to bond the face sheets to the core for cleanroom panels. The adhesive must rigidly attach the facings or skins to the core in order for loads to be transmitted from one facing to the other and to permit the structure to fulfill all the assumptions implied in the acceptance of the commonly used stress calculation methods. Typically, two honeycomb core layers 2 and 3 will be provided, separated by a center septum 5. Facing skins 4 and 6 are provided on the front and rear surfaces, respectively, of the sandwich panel 1.
