2. Twinwall plastic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twinwall_plastic

   Twinwall plastic most commonly refers to two exterior plastic sheets that are connected with a plastic support layer to create parallel channels. This design adds both impact toughness and the ability to support weight. Twinwall plastic may also be used to describe a pipe that has a smooth interior with exterior air filled ridges. [3]

3. Izod impact strength test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Izod_impact_strength_test

   Scheme for the determination of Izod impact strength test results. Impact, by definition, is a large force applied for a very short time, resulting in a sudden transfer of momentum and energy, and its effect is different when the same amount of energy is transferred more gradually. Everyday engineering structures are subjected to it and may ...

4. Polycarbonate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polycarbonate

   Polycarbonate is commonly used in eye protection, as well as in other projectile-resistant viewing and lighting applications that would normally indicate the use of glass, but require much higher impact-resistance. Polycarbonate lenses also protect the eye from UV light.

5. Siding (construction) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siding_(construction)

   Siding or wall cladding is the protective material attached to the exterior side of a wall of a house or other building. Along with the roof, it forms the first line of defense against the elements, most importantly sun, rain/snow, heat and cold, thus creating a stable, more comfortable environment on the interior side. The siding material and ...

6. Glass fiber reinforced concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass_fiber_reinforced...

   GRC (Glass fibre-reinforced concrete) ceramic consists of high-strength, alkali-resistant glass fibre embedded in a concrete & ceramic matrix. [1] In this form, both fibres and matrix retain their physical and chemical identities, while offering a synergistic combination of properties that cannot be achieved with either of the components acting alone.

7. Curtain wall (architecture) - Wikipedia

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

   A curtain wall is an exterior covering of a building in which the outer walls are non-structural, instead serving to protect the interior of the building from the elements. Because the curtain wall façade carries no structural load beyond its own dead load weight, it can be made of lightweight materials.

9. Cladding (construction) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cladding_(construction)

   Single-skin metal panels are pre-formed wall panels made from metal that are one of the most commonly available types of cladding for industrial and commercial projects. Their high durability and easy installation make them ideal for low maintenance builds. Cladding may also be a control element for noise, either entering or escaping.
