Sandwich Plate System a New Generation Construction and Engineering Material

摘要

A new sandwich material form is said to be a new-generation building material that is bringing the shipbuilding and civil engineering industries into a new era.Designed and patented by Intelligent Engineering, the Sandwich Plate System (SPS) has enormous structural advantages over simply stiffened steel plates, providing benefits in performance, cost, and safety. It is used in new construction, and also as an overlay for repair purposes, both for buildings and shipbuilding.SPS is a steel-elastomer-steel composite structural laminate that may be able to replace conventional stiffened steel plates. The elimination of steel stiffeners makes the SPS product less complex, lighter in weight and less susceptible to corrosion and fatigue, thus insuring lower build and maintenance costs and an increased service life.
