PRODUCT DETAILS

Manufacturer's Product Description

Description & Details

1/2" STRUCTO-CRETE Panels are the solution to many common design issues, including fire-ratings, noncombustibility, shear/load, acoustics, and high impact resistance - all with a single panel. These 1/2" STRUCTO-CRETE Panel features are not limited to the commercial midrise market but allow for the design and build of strong and safe low-rise and single unit residential buildings

UL Certified Non-Combustible: Due to the extremely low organic material composition, STRUCTO-CRETE Panels are naturally non-combustible as well as mold and mildew resistant. (1- & 2-hour fire rated).
Resilient Design: 1/2" STRUCTO-CRETE Panels will remain dimensionally stable in the most extreme conditions, such as shear from high wind activity, flooding, wind-driven rain, and wildfires.
Wind Load and Shear Capacity: Up to 4x stronger wind load capacity than gypsum sheathing and better shear capacity than OSB. Can replace cold-formed steel cross bracing.
High Density = High STC: At 74.6 lbs./ft3 per panel STRUCTO-CRETE Panels provide superior STC ratings (50-70) that are not only narrower but can achieve a higher maximum height than traditional gypsum sheathing.
High Impact Resistance: 1/2" STRUCTO-CRETE Panels were developed with the same formula as the 3/4"ќ subfloor panels. That same durability and toughness can now be utilized in high-traffic hallways and corridors to provide outstanding protection from abuse.
Complies with ASTM C1185 (Standard Test Methods for Sampling and Testing Non-Asbestos Fiber-Cement Flat Sheet, Roofing and Siding Shingles, and Clapboards) and ASTM C1177, Standard Specification for Glass Mat Gypsum Substrate for Use as Sheathing.
