Insulated Architectural Concrete Wall

The panels can provide concrete answers to satisfy your design program and project delivery objectives.

Insulated architectural concrete wall.

Examples include insulation placed in concrete masonry cores and continuous insulation in a masonry cavity wall note that an insulated masonry cavity wall can also be considered as exterior insulation if the thermal mass effect of the veneer is disregarded. For applications that require thinner insulated walls with the same thermal and moisture performance insulated wall panels that transfer shear forces between concrete wythes are available. Concrete insulated wall panels provide non composite performance and are non structural without a thickened interior wythe to resist gravity loads. Because of the wall panel s three layered structure it is sometimes referred to as a sandwich wall panel.

Composite panels connect the two wythes of concrete without penetrating the insulation with a conductive material. Precast wall systems can be used with both steel and cast in place structural systems. The insulation thickness can vary to create the desired thermal insulating property r value for the wall. Insulation is full width and height.

Integral insulation refers to insulation placed between two layers of thermal mass. We create insulated precast wall panels based on the architectural and structural specifications. Each concrete layer also known as a wythe can vary in thickness and can be connected with one of many different types of systems. High concrete group s wall systems consist of a variety of insulated and non insulated panels column covers mullions infill and recladding panels.

The difference between a standard wall panel and insulated wall panel is that the latter is cast with rigid insulation between two layers or wythes of concrete. This allows the structural performance to be based on the full thickness of the panel.
