  2. Wood–plastic composite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood–plastic_composite

    WPC in a sandwich-structured composite form allows for a combination of the benefits of traditional wood polymer composites with the lightness of a sandwich panel technology. WPC sandwich boards consist of wood polymer composite skins and usually low-density polymer core which leads to a very effective increase of panel's rigidity.

  3. Wall panel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wall_panel

    A wall panel is single piece of material, usually flat and cut into a rectangular shape, that serves as the visible and exposed covering for a wall. Wall panels are functional as well as decorative, providing insulation and soundproofing , combined with uniformity of appearance, along with some measure of durability or ease of replaceability.

  4. Sandwich-structured composite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandwich-structured_composite

    This material is being used for applications including point-of-purchase displays, bulkheads, recyclable office furniture, exhibition stands, wall dividers and terrace boards. [ 4 ] To fix different panels, among other solutions, a transition zone is normally used, which is a gradual reduction of the core height, until the two fiber skins are ...

  5. Sandwich panel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandwich_panel

    Sandwich panels are an example of a sandwich-structured composite: the strength and lightness of this technology makes it popular and widespread. Its versatility means that the panels have many applications and come in many forms: the core and skin materials can vary widely and the core may be a honeycomb or a solid filling.

  6. Fluting (architecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluting_(architecture)

    The large columns at Persepolis have as many as 40 or 48 flutes, with smaller columns elsewhere 32; the width of a flute is kept fairly constant, so the number of flutes increases with the girth of the column, in contrast to the Greek practice of keeping the number of flutes on a column constant and varying the width of the flute.

  7. Corrugated fiberboard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrugated_fiberboard

    Corrugated fiberboard, corrugated cardboard, or corrugated is a type of packaging material consisting of a fluted corrugated sheet and one or two flat linerboards. [1] It is made on "flute lamination machines" or "corrugators" and is used for making corrugated boxes .
