WHAT IS WALL PANEL?
A WALL PANEL is a 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 TODAY

Wall Panelling can either be done on the interior or the
exterior of a building or house. Originally, wall panelling
was used to make stone rooms more comfortable to live
in. The panels where placed to create insulation between
the stone wall and the room itself. Interior wall panelling
is still used for this reason, but it serves mainly as
decoration.

NATURALWOOD
Most often made of oak,
cedar, maple, or alder. it is
ideal for housings, primarily
due to its environmental
friendliness. When installing
such panels in rooms with
high humidity (bathroom or
kitchen) it should be chosen
with a waxy coating panel,
repelling water and dirt.
CHIPBOARD
The manufacturing process is
based on the method of hot
pressing of chips and
sawdust. It is similar to wood,
but less strong, since it is
subject to temperature drops
and high level of humidity,
and therefore only suitable
for the finishing of dry areas.
HARDBOARD
(FIBREBOARD)
Hardboard panels are also
produced by hot pressing, but
with the use of wood and
other plant fibers. They are
less prone to moisture, eco-
friendly. However, they are
not recommended for rooms
with a high probability of
direct hit water.
MDF PANELS
Medium Density Fibreboards
are made by using dry pressing
(press the fine wood shavings)
at high temperature and
pressure. The wood release
lignin during heating. It serve
as a connecting element. The
material can withstand
sufficient load (hanging lockers
and shelves), and it is resistant
to moisture , has heat and
sound insulation.

BRICKS
The term 'Bricks' denote a
block composed of dried clay,
also used informally to
denote other chemically cured
construction blocks.
interested to apply modern
Bricks can be made of either
these several materials: burnt
clay, sand lime (calcium
silicate bricks), concrete, fly
ash clay, or firebricks.
GLASS PANELS
Glass Panels are designed to
create photographic images
that require a durable base.
These can be disadvantages
but manufacturers are
favorably from its
technology, which has a
positive effect on the
strength and protection of the
glass surface.
VINYL GYPSUM PANELS
(VINYLDRYWALL
This new material is same as
drywall but the only
difference it is covered with
vinyl instead of cardboard.
This obstacle differs it
predecessor. Panels are
endowed with the finished
working surface with a certain
pattern, and it is quite durable
and reliable.

3D PANELS
It is made of "Fashion Panels"
and Bamboo - a material that
represents a new decorative
range of sculptural textured
panels, painted in different
colors using acrylic paint
(glossy or matte finish)
PVCPANELS
The plastic wall panels are
also new material of a rigid
polyvinyl chloride with a
minimum amount of
plasticizer. The panels can be
safely used for almost any
room, even in the shower,
because they a number of
advantages : water-
resistance, fire resistance,
they are hygienic, long-life.
ACOUSTIC PANELS
The acoustics panelling helps
in controlling the noise levels
in space and avoids the noise
transfer through the wall.
These are available in
different materials like fabric,
foam sheets, perforated
board panels, etc.
 MATERIALS

TILES
Can be made of the most
common Ceramic tiles (best
for waterproofing), Porcelain
tiles, Cement tiles, Marble
tiles, Mosaic tiles, Granite
tiles, Limestone tiles,
Travertine tiles, Quarry tiles,
Metal tiles or Resin tiles.
METALPANELS
Mostly used surface in Ribbed
panelling surfaces, Metal can
also be applied as flat panels.
Most materials used are
Aluminum, Cooper, Stainless
steel, Steel Titanium or Zinc.
Metal panels have an array of
good stuff about it, such as
fireproofing and its durability
on top of the visual appeal.
PRECAST CONCRETE
Can be molded as a solid Tilt-
up wall or just as an external
decorative cladding, Precast
concrete not only adds to the
volume and function of walls
but also customizability in
design and efficiency in
installation. One mold fits all.
 FLAT WALL PANEL
3.1 SYSTEMS Flat wall panels are interior or exterior
panel systems that create a flush
appearance along the surface of
panel. These panels can range in
shape, size and are often used in both
interior and exterior application.

 FLAT WALL PANEL SYSTEMS
3.1 Wood Panel Series:
Shiplap

This style of paneling features horizontally-running

grooved boards that are positioned tightly together
to form a weatherproof seal (shiplap used to be
primarily use for home exteriors). The place where
the boards meet is called a "Rabbet".

3.1 Wood Panel Series: BOARD
AND BATTEN
The word "Batten" refers to the piece of
molding that is placed over the joint
between the board

Board and batten, or Board-and-Batten

siding, describes a type of exterior
siding or interior that has alternating
wide boards and narrow wooden strips,
called "Battens". The boards are
usually (but not always) 1 foot wide.
The boards may be placed horizontally
or vertically. The Battens are usually
(but not always) about 1/2 inch wide.

3.1 Wood Panel Series:
PLANK WALL
This application consists of a series of wood planks that
run floor-to-ceiling either horizontally or vertically (although
vertical is more common

Plank width varies depending on the size of

the room and personal preference. Whether
you use reclaimed wood, new wood, or new
wood made to look old, a plank wall adds
tons of warmth and texture to a space.

3.1 Wood Panel Series: BEADBOARD
Beadboard planks feature tongue and groove
assembly, meaning one side of a plank has a
tongue (protrusion) that runs the length of the
plank, and the other side has a corresponding
groove. When installed side-by-side this creates
interlocking reinforcement that keeps the planks
flat and even.

3.1 DRY WALLS

Dry wall installation requires

careful measuring and cutting to
fit pieces into small spaces
above doors or below windows.
Installers also saw holes in the
panels for electrical outlets and
plumbing. Because drywall is
heavy, an assistant works with
the installer to position and
secure the panels.

3.1 WALL TILES

The thinner, lighter nature of

wall tiles makes them easier to
cut and install. These are the
best choice for wall
installations, even though floor
tiles can also be installed
vertically on walls.

3.1 Brick Veneer

The mason starts by troweling

mortar onto the foundation
ledge to prepare it to receive
the first course of brick. Leads
are installed at the ends of the
wall planes and the desired
height. It is also very
important to level the first
course so that the following
courses remain level.

RIBBED WALL PANEL SYSTEMS
A ribbed metal panels feature a bold
design that delivers a unique
industrial appearance. This unique
profile creates a shadow effect that
adds texture.

The 7.2 Insul-Rib Panel can be installed

both vertically and horizontally, allowing
architects flexibility with design. Combine
with other CF joint profiles of the same
thickness to add visual appeal.
 3.2
HOW RIBBED WALL PANELS ARE
BUILT:
Rib wall panels come standard in 26 gauge steel,
with 24 gauge or 22 gauge options. The panel is
36" wide with 1 1/4 high ribs, 12" on center. It is
available in lengths up to 41 which can provide a
continuous panel from foundation to eave.

The assembly is completed

This can eliminate the need for end with the addition of an external
laps and assures you of wall integrity profiled metal sheet
and weather tightness. The panels are
attached with self-drilling, color-
matched fasteners
3.2
HOW RIBBED WALL PANELS ARE ARE
INSTALLED:
The standard fastening and overlap
patterns should be used when
installing siding to ensure optimum
performance. You should not run
siding panels all the way to the ground
and the bottom edge should be
terminated on a base flashing. When
the wall consists of more than one
panel in each vertical row install
panels from the bottom up so that
water is directed away from, and not
into, the lap joints. Siding panels
installed horizontally should have butyl
tape or caulking applied at the vertical
laps.
