Commercial - Wall Assemblies
Introduction
Wall Cladding
There are different types of sheet steel wall assemblies ranging from the simplest single sheet walls found in agricultural buildings, to sophisticated composite panel assemblies. The wide variety of cladding profiles, paint systems and colours provides for complete architectural expression. Sheet steel can also be integrated with other building materials for added variety. Sheet steel wall assemblies are a durable and economical solution. The cavity can be sized to accommodate as much thermal insulation as required while maintaining the integrity of the building enclosure.
Insulated Metal Panels
Designed to creatively answer diverse wall and roof applications, these wall panels are made up of controlled polyisocyanurate foam insulation sandwiched between prefinished sheet steel exterior and interior sheets. The combination of polyurethane foam and steel facings results in a light, attractive and easy-to-install structural panel with exceptional insulating characteristics. Panels are also available with mineral wool insulation that is suited to buildings that require fire rated walls.
