Common Misconceptions for Structural Insulated Panels

Structural insulated panels (SIPs) are building materials used in commercial and residential applications. The panels are commonly constructed of two steel skins, plywood or oriented strand board (OSB) with a polyurethane foam core sandwiched between them. Used in walls, on roofs, in commercial refrigeration, and many other applications, SIPs offer many benefits, including:

They’re energy and thermally efficient

Can increase a building’s property value

Reduce labour costs and onsite waste

Can be constructed onsite

Improve indoor air quality (IAQ)

Are strong, durable, and low-maintenance

Even though SIPs continue to grow in popularity for their cost-effectiveness and efficiency, there are still some misconceptions surrounding their use in construction. A few of these misconceptions are described below:

Misconception 1: SIPs Can’t be Used in Complex Building Designs

Since SIPs are preconstructed and light weight, some people mistakenly assume that they're only useful in simple architectural designs. This, however, is a major misconception of structural panels. Not only can they be used in the construction of many types of buildings, from homes to oil field work camps, they can be used in all types of architectural designs. This includes round edges and non-traditional shapes and styles. They can also be installed on any level of a building or used to construct an entire building.  

Misconception 2: They’re More Expensive than Other Building Materials

SIPs are more sustainable and a better long-term investment than almost every other building material, including wood. Plus, the overall cost of SIPs is relatively low. Not to mention, SIP construction reduces labour costs, job site waste, and energy usage. All of these factors add up to significant savings. Additionally, SIP buildings are easier and more affordable to erect and maintain. If you’re still not sure if building with SIPs will save you money, just speak with a trusted manufacturer. You can find knowledgeable experts and some of the best structural insulated panels Edmonton has to offer right here, at Advanced Panel Products.

Misconception 3: A SIP Building Can’t be Wired

Contrary to popular belief, SIP buildings are perfect for wiring. So, if your home is constructed using SIPs, you can rest assured that it can be wired properly and safely. The dense polyurethane foam core allows the panels to be built with channels for wiring. Plus, since you won’t have to drill through studs to place the wiring, the integrity of your panels and your home will be maintained.

Structural Panels Are Efficient and Cost-Effective as Self-Frame Buildings

Self-framing buildings are perhaps the most efficient and convenient structures to erect, especially when constructed using structural insulated panels (SIPS). They’re self-supporting structures that can be used for numerous applications, including MCC Buildings, control rooms, refrigeration buildings, radio repeater buildings, wellhead shelters, water injection buildings, office buildings and so much more. Most notably, self-framing buildings are cost-effective, durable and versatile.

Self-Framing Buildings Are Cost-Effective

Few materials and little manpower are needed to construct self-framing buildings, making them some of the most cost-effective structures available. The use of structural panels reduces construction time and labour, and they’re cheaper than other steel frame buildings, such as prefabricated (prefab) structures, which often come with a high initial investment. Of course, they’re also cheaper than concrete, stick-frame and other types of buildings.

They’re Durable and Long-Lasting

Self-framing buildings are built to last 20 years or more and survive any weather condition. In fact, the panels are so strong, lightweight and flexible that they can resist seismic waves better than concrete structures. This means a self-framing building could possibly survive an earthquake, especially if it’s built with the best structural insulated panels Edmonton has to offer, from Advanced Panel. These buildings are also known to survive thunderstorms, tornadoes and even hurricanes. Moreover, self-framing buildings constructed with SIP panels are energy efficient, eco-friendly and typically have high fire ratings. The buildings are also resistant to corrosion, water damage, mold and bug infestations.

Self-Framing Buildings are Versatile

Versatility is a hallmark of self-framing buildings. They can be constructed for any application and in any shape. Plus, there’s no need for aluminum extrusion (which is costly), which can make these architectural designs heavier and less versatile. Self-framing structures are also completely customizable, meaning they can be any size, colour or shape you want, and this makes them well suited for small structures that include oil field shacks, control rooms, compressor buildings, manifold buildings, security buildings, pump buildings and more.

The Advantages of Using Metal Wall Cladding

Metal cladding is essentially a protective coating designed to protect a layer of composite material by bonding metal to its surface. This is achieved using lasers, diffusion and deformation, and the resulting structure effectively protects against wear and corrosion. In addition to providing a very modern appearance, it's also cost-effective, suitable for various applications and highly durable. Discover the many benefits of metal cladding panels and consider this smart building solution for your next project.

 Water and Fire Resistant

 Cladding panels don’t absorb moisture, which makes them essentially waterproof. Their waterproof properties protect them and any structure they’re placed on from mold, mildew, fungi and algae. Metal panels made using the cladding technique are also some of the most fire-resistant construction materials. When combined with non-flammable substrate or open framing, the panels receive a 15 minute stay in place rating fire rating CAN/ULC-S101 & S102.

 Durable and Low Maintenance

 Because of their durability, metal wall cladding panels are typically used on buildings and other structures to protect against abrasion and corrosion. The AD LOC 100 and 300 wall and roof panels that we manufacture at Advanced Panel Products are renowned for their strength and durability. They provide optimal insulation, thermal performance and moisture and air leakage protection. This makes them perfect for commercial and industrial walls and roofs. Metal cladding panels are also low maintenance and require little if any cleaning and can last for more than 20 years.

 Provide Excellent Insulation

 In general, metal building materials have excellent insulation properties – a characteristic that is compounded with metal cladding 7.2 R value per inch. Cladding panels’ insulation can prevent exterior and interior air leakage, improving a building’s energy efficiency and reducing energy costs. Heat insulation also helps improve their thermal efficiency. Acoustical infill material can also be easily added to the interior of the building envelope to greatly improve sound insulation.

 Lightweight and Easy to Install

 Metal cladding panels are known for their lightweight design. They’re so light that they don’t reduce the dead load of a building and they are easy to maneuver and install. Easy installation means faster installation, which typically makes project completion more timely and with fewer delays. Malleability also makes them useful in many applications, manufactured per need and able to be twisted into many shapes if proper cuts are made to the interior of the panel. Their malleability also adds to their aesthetics. The sleek, metal panels are available in many textures and colours, which only adds to their modern appeal.

Stop Paying to Heat and Cool the Outdoors - Structural Insulated Panels are the Answer

Air leakage is a major problem most homeowners don’t know they have. Gaps in your home or business’ structure can allow air to slowly leak out or in, and this lowers the energy efficiency and raises the energy costs for many property owners.

 A building constructed with structural insulated panels (SIPs) is practically leak-proof. SIPs are thermally concrete with low air infiltration, high R-value and top quality, built-in insulation. The air leak protection and insulation lighten the load on your heating and cooling systems, making it easier, cheaper and more efficient to heat or cool a building. Below is an explanation of how this is achieved.

 Provides ‘Air Tightness’

SIP walls or roofs are virtually air tight. Unlike batt-insulated or stick-framed structures, SIPs don’t have gaps and don’t allow high air transfer. Their panels also don’t have cavities where hidden leaks can be created. This means no air escapes or enters through the building materials or insulation, and the less air that leaves or enters, the less your AC or heating system works to heat or cool the building. This increases your energy efficiency.

 Prevents Thermal Bridging

A thermal bridge forms when an element (usually a wood element) comes between a wall’s warm and cold faces. This ‘bridge’ allows hot or cold air to pass through the wall via conduction. SIP roof and/or wall panel systems can fix or combat this issue. The panels' insulation effectively prevents thermal bridging.

 Combats Invective or Thermal Looping

Invective or thermal looping occurs when warm air rises and cold air sinks into a wall’s cavity. The phenomenon causes many structures to lose a lot of energy, making them less energy efficient. Although invective looping is a common occurrence, it usually doesn’t happen in SIP-framed buildings. Like the SIP’s insulated core, however, solid insulation material can reduce air movement and prevent looping.

Tank/Vessel Panels from Advanced Panel Products

Tank/vessel insulation panels can be used to store oil, gas, food products, chemicals, asphalt, beer and so much more. Advanced Panel Products is the place to find the insulation systems for the job. Advanced Panel Products Ltd. has shipped tank panels throughout North America and to many locations within Canada, including Fort McMurray, Grande Prairie and Saskatchewan. We’ve been manufacturing and supplying top quality tank insulation systems for more than 17 years. This includes our AD LOC 400, which is one of the most advanced systems on the market. Since we pre-manufacture the panels and deliver the finished products to our customers, this greatly reduces onsite installation time and fabrication costs.

Here are just some of the many benefits of the tank/vessel panels we offer:

Offer Optimal Thermal Performance

Advanced Panel Products’ vessel insulation panels are thermally protected inside and out. Of course, the inner layers are insulated, but the outer shell is also thermally efficient. In fact, our panels have a maximum service temperature of 180° F. The combination of external and internal insulation provides optimal ‘in-place’ thermal performance and minimizes fire/water penetration. However, customers can choose their tank’s overall insulation levels and thermal performance. The panels are also manufactured in 1.5”, 2”2.5”, 3”, 4” at 7.2 R value per inch.

Durable and Well-Made

The systems we manufacture are some of the most durable tank insulation panels Edmonton and area has to offer. They’re virtually maintenance-free with an aluminum or steel outer shell. The aluminum shells can be stucco embossed and the steel is available in a variety of colours. They're 32” or 36” wide, and the wall panels are scored to aid with bending around a tank. All projects are supplied with matching flashing caulking and screws for easy installation. This will help create a strong, weatherproof seal between the panels after installation. Weatherproofing in this manner will enable the system to withstand strong winds and rain, and even though they're light weight, these aluminum or metal panels are also built to withstand the contraction and expansion of a tank, leaving them secure in any conditions.

Cost-Effective

Tank insulation panel systems by Advanced Panel Products are built efficiently and affordably. These attributes are passed on to our customers in a product that's made well and affordable. The panels are manufactured to your exact specifications for optimal efficiency and simple, cost-effective installation.
