Structural Loading of Factory-Engineered Insulated Panels
Downloadable PDF
Published by the Metal Construction Association (MCA), this Technical Bulletin explains structural loading as it relates to factory-engineered insulated panels (aka factory-insulated panels). It describes the types of loads the panels are designed to resist, and the loads they are not. It offers an analysis of the panels, examining flexural buckling, shear stress, excessive deflection, clip/fastener loading and connection failure.
