Aluminum Sheet For Construction

Aluminum Sheet For Construction

Aluminum is often used in the construction industry because of its inherent characteristics of light weight and corrosion resistance;

Aluminum is used in facades, roofs and walls, doors and windows, stairs, railings, shelving and several other applications.

Aluminum plates are mostly used in construction: 3003 alloy aluminum plate, 3004 aluminum sheet, 3105 alloy aluminum plate and 5052 aluminum sheet, because the strength of pure aluminum plate is low, so the use in construction can only be used in places where the strength requirements are not high.

However, the 3000 series alloy aluminum plate and the 5000 series alloy aluminum plate have added some si, mn and mg elements on the basis of pure aluminum, so that their strength and corrosion resistance are also improved, so they are more suitable for use in buildings.

5 major uses of aluminum plate in construction

1. Exterior wall decorative panels

Exterior wall decoration is the most widely used place for 1000 series, 3000 series and 5000 series, because aluminum plate decoration for exterior walls is not only beautiful, corrosion-resistant, not easy to rust, light in weight, but also more environmentally friendly and recyclable;

The aluminum plate has strong corrosion resistance. Under special requirements, the curtain wall plate will also be anodized. The anodized aluminum plate will have stronger corrosion resistance, and its service life will be as high as 50 years.

Its common thickness is 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0MM, the model is 3003, and the state is H24. Among them, 5005 curtain wall aluminum plate is more popular among the public.

2. Indoor curtain wall panels

The types of aluminum alloys often used in indoor curtain wall panels include 1050 alloy, 1060 alloy, 1100 alloy, 3003 alloy, 3105 alloy, etc. Some of the aluminum panels used in indoor curtain wall panels require special surface treatment, such as: anodizing, painting, coating , punching, laser cutting, etc.;

3. Indoor ceiling

The kitchen and bathroom areas have a lot of fumes and humidity, and there are many pipes on the roof. Aluminum ceiling has the advantages of fireproof and moistureproof, anti-corrosion and anti-electricity, sound absorption and sound insulation, etc. It is the best choice for kitchen and bathroom ceilings, because your small density (2.7g/cm³) can reduce the load and increase the service life;

In the use of ceiling, it is mostly perforated aluminum plate;

4. Aluminum plate for doors and windows

Aluminum alloy doors and windows are widely used in modern buildings, not only beautiful, but also corrosion-resistant and have a long service life;

5. Corrugated aluminum sheet for construction

Corrugated aluminum sheet, also known as profiled aluminum sheet, corrugated aluminum sheet, and corrugated aluminum sheet, is a variety of corrugated pressed sheets formed by cold bending. Corrugated aluminum sheet is suitable for industrial and civil buildings, warehouses, special buildings, roofs, walls, interior and exterior wall decoration of large-span structures, etc. As the most famous type of aluminum roofing sheet, aluminum corrugated sheet can be painted in different colors to meet more application requirements. Therefore, coated aluminum corrugated aluminum sheets are favored by more and more industries.

Corrugated aluminum sheet has the characteristics of light weight, high strength, rich colors, convenient construction, earthquake resistance, fire prevention, rain resistance and so on. The cost of aluminum corrugated cardboard is a bit high, but the waste accounts for 80%, so the waste can be recycled and the value is high. The service life of corrugated aluminum sheet is ten or even twenty years. The width of aluminum corrugated cardboard on the market is generally 600-1200mm, which is specially used for the construction of roof and wall baffles. Due to its good plasticity, it can better meet the requirements of various architectural shapes, with beautiful appearance, durable color and environmental protection.

What are the advantages of aluminum used in construction?

• Durability

Aluminium alloys for construction are resistant to water, corrosion and the harmful effects of UV rays, ensuring long-lasting durability

• Low maintenance cost

Aluminum does not require any special type of maintenance, whether raw or painted

• Reflective properties

Aluminum is widely used for light management: its reflective properties help reduce energy consumption for lighting and heating.

For example, the use of air conditioners in summer can be reduced by using aluminum shielding.

• Aluminum is non-flammable

Aluminum does not burn and is therefore classified as a non-combustible material (A1 fire response class).

Nonetheless, aluminum alloys melt at about 650°C without releasing any harmful gases. As a result, more and more industrial structures (rather than) have hoods and outer surfaces made with thin aluminum panel finishes that only fuse in the event of a severe fire, allowing heat and smoke to escape and disperse. Reduce damage caused by fire.

• Aluminum is environmentally friendly

Aluminium is a fully recyclable material that does not pollute the environment.
