EBS offers profile to suit structural, architectural, thermal lighting and corrosive circumstances. Structural constraints are satisfied by the range of corrugation spacing, thickness and materials available from or through EBS.

The architectural requirements are met by the choice of shapes and sizes on offer. These extend from flat panels to deep corrugations, in natural finish or in a choice of colors which can be varied at will, although this may affect cost or delivery or both.

The thermal insulation whenever required is ensured by a selection of means such as glasswool or rockwool with a vapour barrier, or with polyurethane-injected sandwich panels. Here again, EBS offers a broad assortment of liner options, from mere aluminum lining to corrugated metals sheets.

Lighting requirements are met with the supply of GRP translucent sheets. The GRP are UV resistant for durability. The shape, surface and thickness are adjusted to match all other constraints.

The resistance to corrosion is frequently an essential feature of the building. Here again, EBS offers a solution to any condition: the aluzinc coating of steel (the state-of-the art development of traditional galvanization) is the standard issue on EBS buildings. Upon the metal protection, wall sheeting has a factory-applied coating of either polyester, PVF2 (Polyvinyl fluoride), polyurethane, epoxy or PVC Available guarantees extend up to 25 years. In addition a choice of materials such as high grade steel, aluminum and composites are at hand.

Thermal Properties of Polyurethane Injected Sandwich Panel

Sandwich panels are factory injected, using rigid polyurethane foam with outstanding insulation value. The injection process is performed under strict quality control and with the latest high pressure equipment. The sandwich panels may have facing steel, aluminum, foil paper or any other commonly accepted building materials.

Polyurethane Foams:

Polyurethanes are thermosetting plastics, manufactured by mixing two basic components (an isocyanate and a polyol) with the addition of smaller quantities of chemicals such as a catalyst and a blowing agent to create the foam. This blowing agent, which remains as a low pressure gas in the foam cells, is a fluorocarbon with a very low thermal conductivity in commercially available building insulation.

Insulation values and related calculation:

Polyurethane foam are today used world wide as insulation against temperature extremes. The building industry has adopted polyurethane insulation as one of the best materials to control the interior conditions of the buildings to save energy. To determine the “amount” of insulation required for a certain construction, the following definitions and formulae can be used.

“ λ ” Lamda Value:

The thermal conductivity of a material is the amount of heat in watts passing through a material having a surface of 1m² and thickness 1m under a temperature differential of 1° Celsius. Hence, a low lamda value indicates that the material is a good insulator. λ is expressed in w/m °Celsius.

“K” Value:

The insulation value (K) of a material is the thermal conductivity of the material divided by the thickness of material. K = λ / L (w/m² °Celsius)

“U” Value – Thermal Transmittance Value:

The total insulation value of a composite panel is determined by the isolation values of the various materials (K1, K2, etc.,) forming the construction and according to the following formulae.

These are basic information about heat transfer and insulation values for consultants use and calculations. For further information and advises contact Emirates building System LLC.

Typical Properties:

The physical characteristics below are typical of the foam by itself. When contained between the metal sheets of a sandwich panel, the properties are usually enhanced. The sandwich panel data sheets should be red in conjunction with these properties.
