ABOUT
SANDWICH PANEL
Together with the developing production technology
and good quality materials, the sandwich panels with high
bearing capacity can be manufactured. The bearing capacity
depends on the form of the metal surfaces in addition to the
density and thickness of the filling material of the panel, and the
panels can easily carry the loads that are heavier than their own
weights. With this capability, they are preferred as the coating material
for the roof and walls of the buildings. In fact, it is the most ideal construc-
tion material that can be applied in all buildings with steel, wood or reinforced
concrete construction. Furthermore, by means of the purlin distances to be
increased with an appropriate sandwich panel preference, it is possible to economize
from both construction material and the total assembly time.
The number of the joint points will reduce in addition to the assembly workmanship of the
surface being coated by using the sandwich panels, manufactured in lengths up to 12 meters, in
the buildings. With the developed transportation and carriage means, the greater wall and roof
surfaces can be coated in a short time, 10 min./m2 assembly time for the walls and 8 min./m2 assembly
time for the roofs can be used as data. Whilst the sandwich panel does not restrict the volume of the struc-
ture or the height of the building, the limit values are determined according to the bearing construction.
Although the standard component and limited length opportunities of the sandwich panels, unlimited design
opportunities are offered to the designers. The walls gain visual mobility by means of using variable colors or
coating the panels in vertical, horizontal or angled positions. Even with the aid of the multi-purposed panels in the
interior parts, the design possibilities of the designers improve. The joint details cover the points connected from
panel to panel and from panel to the bearing construction. Tight joints that fulfill the insulation functions can be
provided through using double lamp-bush form in the wall panels and generally using lamp-bush form in the roof
panels as well as using lateral overlay. What is expected from the joint points indeed is the air-tightness, thermal
insulation and easy assembly possibility. What is required with easy assembly is the full settlement of the elements
to each other without difficulty. As a result of the performed searches, it has been found out that the panels have
100 times better air-tightness capability than the most qualified windows.

with the broad valley resting on the purlin: wall profiles will usually have the narrow valley against the side rail. All

General Data
The "Z"- and "C" shaped sections of SPEED HOUSE are accurately roll-formed via cold forming from high-strength
zinc-alloy coated steel in order to provide an efficient, lightweight and cost efficient roofing, cladding and walling
support system, for framed structures. (Purling and girt system)
Applications
The SPEED HOUSE "Z" shaped section may be used over single spans, un-lapped continuous spans and lapped
continuous spans in multi-bay buildings. Lapped spans result in a considerable load bearing capacity increase in
the system. The SPEED HOUSE "C" shaped section may be used over single spans and un-lapped continuous spans
in multi-bay buildings. They are ideal as eave purlins or where compact sections are required. The "C" shaped
section cannot be used in overlapping structures.
