In Pre-Engineered Building (PEB) structures, various types of sheets are used, each serving specific purposes in the construction process. Here are the common types:
- Roof Sheets:
- Metal Roofing Sheets: Often made from galvanized steel, aluminum, or zinc-coated steel. These sheets are used for the roof covering and are known for their durability, weather resistance, and ease of installation.
- Corrugated Sheets: These have a wavy pattern and are commonly used for roofing due to their strength and ability to shed water efficiently.
- Wall Cladding Sheets:
- Metal Wall Panels: Similar to roof sheets, these are made from metals like steel or aluminum and are used for wall cladding. They can be single-skin or insulated.
- Insulated Wall Panels: These have an insulating layer sandwiched between two metal sheets, providing thermal insulation and energy efficiency.
- Insulated Sheets:
- Polyurethane Foam (PUF) Panels: Used for both roofing and wall cladding, these panels offer excellent thermal insulation and are often used in cold storage or temperature-controlled environments.
- Polyisocyanurate (PIR) Panels: Similar to PUF panels but with higher fire resistance and thermal efficiency.
- Base Sheets:
- Galvanized Steel Sheets: Often used as the base layer in roofing systems to provide a protective coating against corrosion.
- Facade Panels:
- Aluminum Composite Panels (ACP): Used for aesthetic purposes and external cladding. These panels consist of two thin layers of aluminum enclosing a non-aluminum core.
Each type of sheet is chosen based on the specific requirements of the building, including factors like insulation, load-bearing capacity, and aesthetic preferences.
