  1. 1. Energy performance and Climate impact of different prefabricated façade system

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

    Author : Montanun Kulsomboon; [2022]
    Keywords : Prefabricated façade system; Thermal transmittance; U-Value; Life Cycle Assessment; Comparative study; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The objective of the degree project was to assess the average thermal transmittance and the climate impact of the façade. The studied prefabricated façade panels were the aluminium frame one, the insulated concrete sandwich and the wooden frame panel. READ MORE

  3. 2. Temperature distribution in air tight cavities of steel framed modular buildings when exposed to fire

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Elin Bergroth; Greta Torstensson; [2019]
    Keywords : Cavities; fire furnace; fire test; modular building; steel; TASEF; Brandugn; brandtest; hålrum; modulbyggnader; stål; TASEF;

    Abstract : A common way to construct large buildings is by assemble prefabricated modules around a load bearing steel construction. However, if a fire occurs these buildings can be subject to a rapid fire spread due to its cellular nature. READ MORE

  4. 3. Evaluation of potential for metal/polymer/metal sandwich material as outer panels for trucks

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Erik Wendel; [2019]
    Keywords : Sandwich materials; panels; trucks; formability; hemming; lap shear; T-peel; impact;

    Abstract : Reducing the weight of the truck vehicle conveys more cargo to be carried by thetrailer. This has a significant impact on the efficiency of the transport lowering both the total cost of cargo moved and the total carbon dioxide emitted. READ MORE

  5. 4. Concept study for cost and weight reduction of a barge container sized module

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner

    Author : Ricky Andersson; [2018]
    Keywords : sandwich panel; structural optimization; cost reduction; weight reduction; high-strength steel; finite element analysis.;

    Abstract : The intention of this thesis is to develop, evaluate new concepts and look over the current design for a container sized barge module. By request of Group Ocean, a cost and weight reduction is the main improvement criteria along with keeping the strength of the module. READ MORE

  6. 5. Study of an axially loaded sandwich panel : Study based on finite element analysis and experimentation of a 1 mm flat profiled steel plate

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Byggkonstruktion och brand

    Author : Navid Fathi; [2017]
    Keywords : Flat profile; Wrinkling; Crippling; FEM;

    Abstract : Sandwich panels produced by Isolamin AB are comprised of a core, such as polyurethane or mineral wool that is attached between two steel plates. The problem that the thesis attempts to solve is whether a flat profiled sandwich panel of 1mm can withstand loads from 3-storey modular house. READ MORE
