An innovative light weight composite panel system for high speed modular construction

该项目旨在开发一种创新的复合板系统，该系统使用充气地聚合物和薄的高强度钢壳。新的电池板系统旨在与传统电池板相比，在负载阻力、更低的碳足迹和生命周期成本方面有许多重大改进。它的目标是提供理想的性能，如轻质、易于建造、经济、可回收和可重复使用。在充气地聚合物的材料和系统行为及其防火性能方面存在着巨大的知识差距。它的目的是开展一项全面的研究计划，以应对这些挑战，并提供设计指南，以在澳大利亚和海外迅速发展这些技术。

This project aims to develop an innovative composite panel system using aerated geopolymer and a thin high strength steel casing. The new panel system aims to have a number of significant enhancements compared to traditional panels in terms of load resistance, much lower carbon footprint and life-cycle costs. It aims to offer desirable properties, such as being light-weight, easy to construct, economical, recyclable and reusable. A significant gap in knowledge exists in the material and system behaviour of the aerated geopolymer and its fire performance. It is intended that a comprehensive research program will be carried out to address those challenges and to provide design guidelines to rapidly progress these technologies in Australia and overseas.
