Role of ACP Thickness in Fire Resistance and Safety
Aluminum Composite Panels are known for their sleek design and versatility for modern construction. However, one of the most essential points to consider when choosing an ACP sheet is aluminum composite panel thickness , as this is crucial for fire resistance and safety. Understanding the relationship is essential for making safe, informed decisions in construction. How ACP Thickness Affects Fire Resistance Thickness of Core Material: The core of an ACP is the most crucial factor for determining fire resistance. ACP that has a thicker core of fire retarded material is best in resisting fire spread or, in some cases delaying the fire spread, giving time for evacuation and emergency response. Aluminum Skin Thickness: Aluminum skin thickness is another crucial factor for fire resistance. Thicker aluminum skins give additional protection as they take time to melt under high temperatures. Aluminum is non-combustible, hence its ability to retain structural integrity during fire. ...
