Abstract
ABSTRACT A structural insulated panel comprises a rigid polyurethane insulation 2 sandwiched between an inner sheet 3 and an outer sheet 4, both of which are of oriented strand board. The facing edges of the inner sheet 3 at the joint between adjacent panels are spaced-apart to define a recess 15 for reception of services such as cables or pipes. A channel or track 20 may be fitted into the recess 15 and services led long the track 20 [Fig.3]
Description
A structural insulated panel The invention relates, to buildings systems using structural insulated panels (SIPS).
Statements of Invention According to the invention there is provided a prefabricated building panel comprising an outer sheet and an inner sheet with a core of insulating material therebetween, at least one of the sheets having a portion of a recess or void, the recess or void portions of adjacent panels being located in use at ajoint between adjacent panels to define a recess or void for reception of a services conduit.
In one embodiment the inner sheet has a cut-out to at least partially define the recess.
The conduit may comprise a pipe or a cable.
In one embodiment the recess contains a protector or track for the conduit. The track may be a cable track.
The protector may comprise a shroud.
In another embodiment the inner sheet or the outer sheet have a portion of a further recess or void, the further recess or void portions of adjacent panels being located in use at ajoint between adjacent panels to define a further recess or void for reception of an electrical fitting such as an electrical socket or an electrical switch.
In one case the sheets are of the same material. The sheets may be of different material.
In one embodiment, the or each sheet is of a material selected fiom oriented strand board, fibreboard, plasterboard, waferboard, plywood, paperboard and particle board.
In one case the or each sheet is of oriented strand board.
In one embodiment the insulating material is of a foam material such as polyurethane.
In one embodiment the panel comprises reinforcing splines for reinforcing the joint between adjacent panels.
Brief Description of the Drawings The invention will be more clearly understood from the following description thereof given by way of example only with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which: Fig. 1 is a cross-sectional view illustrating the joint between adjacent panels of the invention, prior to assembly of thejoint; Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view of an assembled joint between the panels of the invention; Fig. 3 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of the joint between the panels of the invention; Fig. 4 is a cross-sectional view of the joint between other panels of the invention; Fig. 5 is an elevational view of the assembled panels of the invention; and Fig. 6 is an enlarged View of a detail of the panel of Fig. 5.
Detailed Description Referring to the drawings and initially to Figs. I to 3 thereof, there is illustrated thejoint between two like panels according to the invention. Each of the panels l is a structural insulating panel (SIP) comprising high-performance rigid polyurethane insulation 2 sandwiched between an inner sheet 3 and an outer sheet 4, both of which are of orientated strand board (OSB). Adjacent panels are jointed together using inner and outer splines 5, 6 of OSB at the internal faces of the sheets 3, 4 respectively. Nails 9 are used to secure the sheets 3, 4 and the associated splines 5, 6.
A steel plate 10 may be used on the exposed face of the inner sheet 3 to provide a protective COVCI‘ t0 the FCCCSS.
In the invention, the inner sheets 3 at thejoint between adjacent panels have or define a recess or void 15 for reception of services such as pipes or cables. In this case, the facing edges of adjacent front sheet 3 are spaced-apart to define the recess 15.
In more detail, and referring to Fig. 3, the recess 15 may be used to house a track or channel 20, which may be used to house cables 2]. The cable channel 20 may, for example, be a friction fit in the recess. In this case, the inner sheets 3 may be faced with a further sheet of plasterboard .
Referring to Fig. 4, the insulating core 2 may also have a recess or void to receive a services conduit. In this case the services conduit is defined by a metal shroud 30 housing pipes 35 such as copper water pipes.
Referring to Fig. 5 and 6, the inner sheets 3 may additionally or alternatively be provided with service recesses at appropriate locations such as lower recesses 50 to accommodate a standard twin point electrical socket and/or upper recesses 51 to accommodate a light switch.
The invention ensures that services can be safely and easily installed within the overall structural thickness of the Wall. The preformed recesses allow for a faster installation of services on site.
The conduits can be readily incorporated within an off-site manufacturing process. There is no need for battering of the panel to create a service void. In general, the use of a joint in accordance with the invention that functions as both a connector and a service zone provides a highly efficient building system.
The invention is not limited to the embodiments hereinbefore described, which may be varied in detail within the scope of the claims.
