3. INTRODUCTION
Aluminium composite panel (acp) is a general term for
panels constructed from two sheets of aluminium bonded
to a core.
Also known as sandwich panel, it is a structure made of three layers:
 Low density core inserted in between two relatively thin skin layers.
 This sandwich setup allows to achieve excellent mechanical
performance at minimal weight.
 The very high rigidity of a sandwich panel is achived, its
components under flexural load applied to the panel.
 Core takes the shear loads and creates a distance between the
skins which take the in-plane stresses, one skin in tension, the
other in compression.

4. CLASSIFICATION

5. PANEL CONPOSITION
• Aluminium composite (ACP) also
known as aluminium composite
material (ACM).
• It is a type of flat panel that
consists of two thin aluminium
sheets bonded to a non-aluminium
core.
• ACPs are frequently used for
external cladding or facades of
building, insulation, and signage.

7. ACP
Polyvinylidene fluoride or polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) is a
highly non-reactive thermoplastic fluoropolymer produced by
the polymerization of vinylidene difluoride.

8. ACP comes in different shape, size, texture and color as per costumer requirement

9. PROPERTIES
 Aesthetically pleasing: other means of making a
structure cannot deliver the result as aluminium
composite panel does.
 Good insulation material: thermal and acoustical
 Dead weight of the composite material is very low
 Is resistant to heat up to a temperature as high as of
113 degree celsius after which it starts deforming in the
first place and then fails.
 Aluminium can be painted in any kind of color, and
ACPs are produced in a wide range of metallic and non-
metallic color as well as patterns that imitate other
materials, such as wood or marble

10. FEATURES OF ACP
 Anti fungal protection
 Capable of being shaped and formed without
loss of surface integrity
 High strength and rigidity – outstanding
deflection and bending strength
 Short time for mounting: as result cuts down
construction time
 Installation is easy
 Pollution, acid, alkali, and self spray resistant
finish
 Very low coefficient of expansion

12. INSTALLATION OF ACP
 Aluminium composite panel are installed on aluminium by rivet or screw or cutting.
 Panels can be cut by suitable kinds of saws and lathes.

15. INSTALLATION TYPES
 Wet seal
open joint system sealed with caulk and backer rod,
water tight most economical of the three system.
 Dry seal
open joint system with gasket and/or filler strip,
watertight typically most expensive system.
 Rain screen
pressure equalizer, minimize the pressure difference
on the inside and outside of the exterior cladding.
design allows for water and moisture to enter and drain
from the wall cavity.

24. ACP AS A CONSTRUCTION MATERIAL
 Aluminium can be painted in any kind of colour, and
ACPs are produced in a wide range of metallic and non-
metallic colour as well as patterns that imitate other
materials, such as wood or marble. ACPs are frequently
used for external cladding or facades of buildings,
insulation and signage.
 ACP is mainly used for external and internal
architectural cladding or partitions, false ceiling, sign
trays, individual logos, column cladding, counter
cladding, grilles and screen, machine parts and covers,
display panels, etc.

25. WHY ALUMINIUM CLADDING ?
 Aluminium cladding allows you to come up with contemporary
styles that not only protect your building from the elements of
nature but also gives it a great appearance.
 This cladding material can also be used to complement the
traditional looks of your building. Further, it can also be installed
easily over materials like brick, concrete or stucco. If you are
planning to enhance or modify the appearance of the interiors
or exteriors of your building, think of aluminium as it offers great
value for your money.

structure like trade show booths and similar temporary elements.
