Abstract:Insulated pre-cast concrete wall panels, also called sandwich panels, consist in two external concrete layers, in which an internal layer of thermal insulation material is inserted between, aiming better acoustic and thermal performance. One of the main concerns regarding the performance of these panels refers to the elimination of thermal bridges caused by metallic connectors, which jeopardize the panels’ thermal efficiency. One of the proposals to solve this problem consists in the use of PERFOFRP connectors… Show more
