Experiments with Metlaclad Beams as Footings to Support a Kingspan PIR Sandwich Panel Floor
Experiments with Metlaclad Beams as Footings to Support a Kingspan PIR Sandwich Panel Floor
Mk 1
92mm drywall clads composite door edge off cut (CDEFC) are placed first. If a stronger beam is required a dry lining I-Stud is inserted in the middle (see right of pic)
Important: If footings are not used, several Rebar "L shape" or "Loop" is inserted into ground at angle away from the building at a 30-50cm depth to anchor. Minuimun of 4 for each corner & 4 at edge & in middle beam
Then a 50mm CDEFC. Roof kingspan panels is placed upside down (ridges downward for extra strength)
Insulated door off cuts can be inserted in the gaps for extra insulation & to stop rodents nesting (Rodents do not appear to eat door grp / foam)
Pic below shows 2 layers
Mk2. These are shown upside down (so current upside would be facing the ground)
For lighter shelters requiring a lower height, the Beams can be inserted the trough between the ridges
Again, insualtion can fit into gaps
