SANDWICH ELEMENT SIP : Utvärdering av lätta sandwichmaterial för lastbärande väggar.

Sammanfattning: This bachelor thesis was written as a final part of the engineering program in technology of the construction at Uppsala University corresponding to 15 credits and was written during the first half of 2019. This report is about a new building material which is called Sandwich Material. It consists of two layers of lightweight concrete and foam which has developed of Xpaneco AB company in Uppsala. In this thesis, we will figure out and test this material to be able to know what the specifications of the material and mechanical properties are. According to that, we will test the resistance of the material, stiffness and other factors which must have been included in this report. Finite Element Method is a method we have chosen which will be applied on our material to explore how the constructive element will be by using this material. To be able to do this work, so we should have gotten some inspirations, ideas and som support in form of technical tools and books.
