| Abstract: |
In light of the climate crisis, the building sector faces the increasing challenge and urgency to improve its sustainability and significantly reduce its consumption of non-renewable resources. Therefore, the EU-funded research project InCSEB is developing ultra-low carbon footprint building steel envelope systems through the innovative use of wood fibre as a core material of sandwich panels. By using the new bio-based core material, the carbon footprint and the environmental impact of buildings with this type of envelope system can be reduced. Within the InCSEB project, various studies are being carried out on sandwich panels with a bio-based core. In addition, studies are being carried out on full-scale building prototypes with these new solutions. In this paper, the results of the static-mechanical tests and the assembly of the sandwich panels with a wood fibre core are presented to indicate the future scope of potential roof and cladding applications. |
