Kingspan TEK® Cladding PanelsKingspan TEK® Cladding Panels are 142 mm thick structuralinsulated panesl (SIPs). Panels are connected with a uniquejointing system.

Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels consist of a high performancerigid urethane insulation core, sandwiched between two layersof Oriented Strand Board type 3 (OSB/3). During manufacture,the insulation core of Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels isautohesively bonded to the OSB/3 facings. This processprovides more reliable and superior adhesion than thesecondary bonding process used in the manufacture of mostother SIPs.

Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels are a structural composite.This composite assembly provides stiffness, strength andpredictable responses to applied loads.

Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels hold BBA and NSAI AgrémentCertification.

ApplicationsKingspan TEK® Cladding Panels leave ample scope forindividual design. The panels are pre–cut to match a project’sengineering and design specifications, and are delivered to siteready for installation.

Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels can be installed ‘in–board’,as an infill panel in the apertures of the structural frame of abuilding or, alternatively, the panels can be installed‘out–board’, sheathing the structural frame. Installing KingspanTEK® Cladding Panels 'out-board' rather than ‘in–board’ canprovide more internal space within a building, and can alsoautomatically reduce thermal bridging in walls as the structuralframe is implicitly sheathed with insulation.

Façad finishes can be fixed to Kingspan TEK® CladdingPanels. The panels can provide the necessary thermal andstructural performance for most façade systems. KingspanTEK® Cladding Panels can also be used in conjunction withtraditional masonry rainscreens.

Once installed, Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels should bewrapped in a breathable membrane, e.g. Kingspan nilvent ®,as a temporary weather proofing. As with all constructionsystems, a long lasting external rainscreen is a necessary partof any wall built using Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels.NB Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels are not recommended for the construction of cellars orbasements, or for use in high humidity environments.

Introduction

Environmental Sustainability at its Core� Can be used to create highly energy efficient buildings.

� Can achieve whole wall U–values of 0.20 – 0.10 W/m2.Kor better.

� Can achieve air leakage levels significantly better than the10 m3/hour/m2 at 50 Pa maximum required by ADL1A tothe Building Regulations for England, 2013 Edition.

� Fewer deliveries therefore less transport, congestion,noise, and traffic pollution, which reduces a project’simpact on the environment.

� The OSB facing of Kingspan TEK®

Building System panels is PEFC Chain ofCustody certified at 70%.

� Constructions available that correspond toBRE Global Green Guide genericelements which achieve a SummaryRating of A+.

� The insulation core of the panels ismanufactured with a blowing agent that haszero Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) and lowGlobal Warming Potential (GWP).

Fast, Cost Effective & Predictable� The lightweight panels can enable a fast track building

process, which can help to reduce construction time.

� A three man team can typically install 150 m2 of KingspanTEK® Cladding Panel per day. As a result an external wallsystem incorporating Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panelscan be up to 50% faster to build than alternativeconstruction methods.

� Can reduce the need for expensive and time consumingscaffolding as in most situations, the lightweight panelscan easily be installed using mast climbers.

� Follow on trades can start work sooner, as once KingspanTEK® Cladding Panels are erected and wrapped with abreathable membrane (e.g. Kingspan nilvent ®), the wallsare weather–tight, and this can help the contractorcomplete the project more quickly.

� Much easier to predict project completion times, as thepanels are relatively simple to erect, can reduce the needfor complex rainscreen cladding rail fixing systems, andalso require no wet trades or brick layers.

� Defects are vastly reduced due to factory controlledmanufacturing and precise engineering of Kingspan TEK®

Cladding Panels.

AssumptionsThe U−values in the tables that followhave been calculated, under amanagement system certified to theBBA Scheme for Assessing theCompetency of Persons to Undertake U–value andCondensation Risk Calculations, using the method detailed inBS / I.S. EN ISO 6946: 2007 (Building components andbuilding elements. Thermal resistance and thermaltransmittance. Calculation method) and using the conventionsset out in BR443 “Conventions for U−value calculations”.

The U−values in the tables that follow are valid for theconstructions shown in the details immediately above. Unlessotherwise stated, the U–values quoted are based on aninternal construction comprising a 3 mm plaster skim on12.5 mm plasterboard fixed to 50 x 25 mm softwood timberbattens. The external finishes are as specified in theexamples themselves.

NB: For calculations which do not feature additional internal insulation, a 4% bridging factorhas been assumed for the timber bridging the insulation in the panels. The thermalconductivity of the timber has been assumed at 0.12 W/m.K.

NB: Calculations assume that the use of a foil faced breather membrane yields an airspacethermal resistance of 0.54 m2.K/W.

NB: For the purposes of these calculations the standard of workmanship has been assumedgood and therefore the correction factor for air gaps has been ignored.

NB: The figures quoted are for guidance only. A detailed U–value calculation together withcondensation risk analysis should be completed for each individual project.

NB If your construction is any different to those specified and / or to gain a comprehensiveU−value calculation along with a condensation risk analysis of your project please consult theKingspan Insulation Technical Service Department for assistance (see rear cover).

Design Considerations

Specification ClauseKingspan TEK® Cladding Panels should be described inspecifications as:–

The insulated wall sheathing/infill (delet as applicable) shall be142 mm thick Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels comprising ahigh performance rigid urethane insulation core, sandwichedbetween two layers of PEFC Chain of Custody certifiedOriented Strand Board type 3 (OSB/3) autohesively bonded tothe insulation core during manufacture. The product shall bemanufactured: with a blowing agent that has zero OzoneDepletion Potential (ODP) and low Global Warming Potential(GWP); under a management system certified to BS EN ISO9001: 2008, BS EN ISO 14001: 2004 and BS OHSAS 18001:2007; by Kingspan Insulation Limited; and installed inaccordance with the instructions issued by them..

NBS SpecificationsDetails also available in NBS Plus.NBS users should refer to clause(s):H10 150 (Minor works, standard and intermediate)

Water Vapour ControlConsideration should be given to the risk of condensationwhen designing thermal elements.

Condensation can be controlled in buildings constructed withKingspan TEK® Cladding Panels by ensuring the panels areproperly installed in accordance with Kingspan Insulation Ltd'sguidance, and a fully integrated and operating mechanicalventilation system is incorporated within the building design.Provided these directions are followed, interstitial condensationunder normal domestic/office conditions should be minimisedand no vapour control layer is required.

Notwithstanding this, a condensation risk analysis should becarried out for all projects following the procedures set out inBS 5250: 2002 (Code of practice for the control ofcondensation in buildings). The Kingspan Insulation TechnicalService Department (see rear cover) can provide this service.

If a condensation risk is predicted, it can be controlled, byensuring there is a layer of high vapour resistance on the warmside of the insulation layer. If required, the vapour resistance ofthe wall lining can be increased by the use of a vapour checkplasterboard*; the use of Kingspan Thermawall® TW55,which contains an integral vapour control layer*; the use of alayer of polythene sheeting*; or by the application of two coatsof Gyproc Drywall Sealer to the plasterboard lining.

* With appropriate detailing at joints, penetrations and wall perimeters.

NB: The System is not recommended for cellars or basement constructions, or for use in highhumidity environments.

Spanning & Wind LoadsThe maximum permissible (unfactored) working loads that apanel can resist for a given height between panel supports,cladding load and cladding eccentricity, are shown in the tablebelow. Load tables are based on the design procedures inBS EN 1995–1–1: 2004+Al: 2008 (EC5) and an instantaneousdeflection limit of span/350 in accordance with the suggesteddeflection limits given in Table 7.2 of EC5. They apply to bothpressure and suction forces on a vertical wall panel used asan infill.

The working loads should be compared against the unfactoredwind loads calculated by the Building Designer in accordancewith either BS 6399–2: 1997 or BS EN 1991–1–4: 2005 WindLoads (EC1).

No axial load is included, i.e. all sections are nonloadbearingsave for the self weight of the Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panelitself and any supported claddings.

Cladding loads are assumed to be either:No cladding – cladding supported independently of theKingspan TEK® Cladding Panel e.g. masonry and curtainwalling systems;

0.60 kN/m2 – most 'lightweight' cladding systems e.g. acrylicrender on carrier boards, proprietary rainscreens and timberboarding with multiple batten layers; or

0.75 kN/m2 – most 'heavyweight' cladding systems such asbrick slips and tile hanging with multiple batten layers.

Eccentricity refers to the distance of the centre of weight ofthe supported cladding from the face of the Kingspan TEK®

Cladding Panel (or approximately the clear cavity width).

It is assumed that Panels are adequately restrained at the headand base against lateral movement and at the base for verticalsupport using suitable support brackets or shelf angles.It is assumed that Panels are simple spans with pinned ends(i.e. not continuous past floors).

The span tables given below provide generic guidance on thelimits of applicability and each individual project should bechecked by a suitably qualified structural engineer.

Attachment OptionsGeneralSince attachment systems are proprietary and utilise differentmechanisms for fixing Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels to thebuilding structure, installation instructions should be soughtfrom the system manufacturer. The examples given in thesections that follow are designed as guidance only. Pleasecontact Kingspan Insulation Technical Service Department forfurther details (see rear cover).

‘In–board’ – Fixing Inside the Structural FrameKingspan TEK® Cladding Panels can be fixed inside thestructural frame of a building as an infill panel betweenstructural load–bearing elements, e.g. concrete posts.Typically, Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels are secured to thestructural frame using dead bolt fixings. At floor level the deadbolts are fixed through the panels to a continuous steel anglebracket, and at ceiling level they are fixed through the panelsto angled cleats with slotted fixing connections, to allow fordifferential movement. A high performance insulation, e.g.Kingspan Kooltherm® K15 Rainscreen Board, should be fixedto the external face of the floor slab to reduce thermal bridgingthrough the structural frame of the building. See Figure 3below for further details.

‘Out–board’ – Fixing to the Outside of the Structural FrameKingspan TEK® Cladding Panels can be fixed outside thestructural frame of a building sheathing the structuralload–bearing elements. Typically, Kingspan TEK® CladdingPanels are secured to the structural frame at floor and ceilinglevel using dead bolt fixings. Dead bolts are fixed through thepanels to angled cleats fixed at 400 mm centres, subject todesign loads. Fixings at ceiling level are typically slotted to allowfor differential movement. See Figure 4 below for further details.

Vertical Panel JunctionsKingspan TEK® Cladding Panels have a routed channel alongtheir long edges. This channel can accommodate a uniqueinsulated cassette joint (see Figure 5). Alternatively, a C16grade timber post can be used in this joint to provideincreased structural performance e.g. where high rackingstrengths are required (see Figure 6). These joints are fixed inplace through the panel’s OSB/3 facings.

The joints can be sealed in two ways:

� expanding urethane sealant can be applied between theurethane core of the panel and the cassette joint / timber;and / or

� a continuous EPDM membrane can be bonded to theouter OSB/3 facing.

Sealing the jointing system in either of these ways enablesKingspan TEK® Cladding Panel joints to be very air–tight.

Where services need to be fixed and there is an additional layerof insulation, e.g. Kingspan Thermawall® TW55, fixed to theinside of the Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panel, a service cavitycan be created by installing a single layer of min. 12.5 mmplasterboard on min. 25 mm deep by 50 mm wide verticaltimber battens (see Figure 9);

Figure 9

In all cases the need for electrical sheathing / conduit should beassessed in accordance with Building Regulations / Standardsand BS 7671: 2001 (Requirements for Electrical Installations).

Where an electrical back box must be fixed to a Kingspan TEK®

Cladding Panel wall, the electrical back box must be eithersurface mounted, or the service cavity must be sufficiently wide toaccommodate a flush fitting electrical back box. Under nocircumstances should the OSB/3 facing and / or the insulationcore of the Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panel, or any internalinsulation, be ‘chased out’ to accommodate service fittings.

Where cabled services do not need to be fixed to KingspanTEK® Cladding Panels, a single layer of min. 12.5 mmplasterboard can be fixed direct to the panel (see Figure 10).

Where services need to be fixed on an external Kingspan TEK®

Cladding Panel wall there are two options for creating aservice cavity:

� a single layer of min. 12.5 mm plasterboard on min.25 mm deep by 50 mm wide vertical timber battens(see Figure 7); or

� a double layer of 12.5 mm plasterboard – the layer closestto the Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panel should be chasedout to create a cavity for services. The second layer shouldbe 12.5 mm vapour check plasterboard (see Figure 8).

External CladdingAs soon as possible after Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panelshave been secured to the structural frame of the building, anon–tenting breathable membrane, e.g. Kingspan nilvent ®,should be fixed directly to the panels. External cladding shouldbe installed over the breathable membrane.

The following are examples of external cladding for wallsconstructed using Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels:

� outer leaf of brickwork / stone, ensuring a minimum50 mm cavity is maintained between the breathermembrane and the brickwork;

� lightweight render coating carried on calcium silicate boardwhich is supported by min. 25 mm deep by 50 mm widevertical treated timber counter battens;

� feather edge timber boarding on min. 25 mm deep by50 mm wide vertical treated timber counter battens;

� wall tiling mounted on tiling battens which are supportedby min. 25 mm deep by 50 mm wide treated timbercounter battens;

� proprietary brick slip system supported by min. 25 mmdeep by 50 mm wide vertical treated timber counterbattens; and

� proprietary rainscreen cladding systems.

Other external cladding options are possible, if you have anyqueries regarding the suitability of your external cladding,please contact the Kingspan Insulation Technical ServicesDepartment (see rear cover).

Fire StopsCurrent Building Regulations / Standards should be consideredwith regard to the requirements for, and provision of, fire stops.

Environmental SustainabilityIt is widely recognised that there are four main globalenvironmental sustainability issues: global warming,nonrenewable resource depletion, toxic pollution and ozonedepletion, and that these global issues far outweigh any localenvironmental sustainability issues in their need for immediateattention and potential impact from inaction.

Studies have shown that the first three issues are essentiallyone. The extraction and consumption (burning) of fossil fuelsis by far the most significant contributor to global warming,non–renewable resource depletion and toxic pollution.

In the UK 60% of fossil fuels are used to heat buildings and halfof this is housing. Therefore as far as housing is concernedenvironmentally sustainability comes down to two main issues:reduce fossil fuel use and specify zero ODP products.

By far the most economical method of reducing fossil fuel usein housing is to reduce space–heating demand. Theinvestment for renewable energy sources only becomesconvincing once space–heating demand is minimised.

The most effective way to reduce the space–heating demand ofa building is to improve the energy performance of its envelopeby specifying low U–values, low air–leakage rates and byavoiding significant linear thermal bridging wherever possible.

The former has been the subject of Building Regulation for30 years but still has a long way to go before an optimum levelis attained. It is estimated that U–values of 0.10 W/m2.K wouldbe the practical optimum.

Building Regulations / Standards are only starting to attendseriously to the issues of air–leakage and linear thermalbridging, which become more significant as U–values arereduced, but it is likely that Building Regulations / Standardswill come to focus more on air–tight and better detailedconstructions over the coming years as U–values and energyperformance move closer to the optimum.

12

Zero ODP and Low GWPThe insulation core of Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels ismanufactured with a blowing agent that has zero OzoneDepletion Potential (ODP) and low Global Warming Potential(GWP).

U–valuesKingspan TEK® Cladding Panels yield a worst case whole wallU–values of 0.20 W/m2.K, with no additional insulation, whichmeans that the Panels can meet, and exceed, current BuildingRegulations / Standards. The System can also meet theU–values that are expected to be set in future changes to theBuilding Regulations / Standards, as extremely low U–values,e.g. 0.10 W/m2.K and lower, can easily be achieved with theaddition of an insulated lining, e.g. Kingspan Thermawall®

TW55, on the inside of Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels.This can mean low running costs and impressive comfort forthe lifetime of the building.

Air–tightnessIn addition to the excellent U–values that can be achieved bywalls constructed using Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels,the closed cell structure of the rigid urethane insulation coreof the Panels does not allow movement of air within them.The insulation will not sag or physically deteriorate over time,as may be the case with other insulating materials.

The Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panel proprietary jointing systemcan help create a very air–tight structure for walls. This canhelp the building achieve air leakage levels significantly betterthan the 10 m3/hour/m2 at 50 Pa maximum required by ADL1Ato the Building Regulations for England, 2013 Edition.


In order to achieve these low air leakage rates for the fullbuilding envelope, care must also be taken to maintain airtightness at junctions other than those between KingspanTEK® Cladding Panels, such as:

� air leakage at the junction of the soleplate and foundationsubstructure where temporary levelling shims have beenused – air leakage can be minimised by ensuring thecement based mortar (e.g. EasiPoint Standard) which hasbeen injected underneath the soleplate to distribute theload of the building has been fully installed from both sidesof the soleplate; and

� air leakage at intermediate floor zones can be minimisedby ensuring that the joint between panels, is fully sealedwith silicone sealant.

Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels do not suffer from theproblems associated with other common constructiontechniques such as:

� air leakage through poorly sealed sockets, switches etc. intimber frame walls;

� air leakage at floor zones through wet plastered masonrycavity walls; and

� air leakage under skirting boards and through poorly sealedsockets, switches etc. in dry lined masonry cavity walls.

Limited Cold BridgingRepeating thermal bridges occur where a material with asignificantly worse thermal conductivity interrupts the insulationlayer in a construction i.e. timber studs etc. U–valuecalculations for conventional timber frame systems take intoaccount the effects of repeating thermal bridges. Guidancedocuments for the calculation of U–values, BS / I.S. EN ISO6946: 2007 (Building components and building elements.Thermal resistance and thermal transmittance. Calculationmethod) and BR443 (Conventions for U−value calculations),indicate that in a typical domestic timber frame building, aminimum of 15% of walls and 6% of the pitched roof isun–insulated.

13

The percentage figures quoted include structural timbers andnoggins, but do not account for timbers that are outside thewall or pitched roof area used for heat loss calculations, suchas timbers around window zones, and at intermediate floors.

The insulation layer in Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels is notinterrupted by repeating studwork. Therefore, there is lessrepeating thermal bridging, which can yield better thermalperformance. There are, however, some thermal bridges, e.g.where timbers are used to support point loads etc.

The overall result is that thermal bridging from timber elements,in walls constructed using Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels,can be as low as 1%.

Linear thermal bridges occur at junctions, e.g. wall to floor,and openings, e.g. windows, in the building fabric, and areexpressed as psi–values (ψ). A ψ–value is the heat lossthrough a junction, which is additional to the heat flow throughthe adjoining plane elements, and is expressed in W/m.K.

ψ–values are not taken into account in U–value calculations,but, instead, they are taken into account separately in thecalculation methodologies used to assess the operational CO2

emissions of buildings e.g. SAP in UK and DEAP in Republic ofIreland. Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels, particularly if installed'out–board', achieve very good ψ–values, due to the continuityof insulation at junctions and openings.

Kingspan Insulation has had a number of junctions modelledand psi values calculated for them. For further information,please contact the Kingspan Insulation Technical ServicesDepartment (see rear cover).

Environmental Impact &Responsible SourcingGreen Guide RatingsThe table below details elements constructed using KingspanTEK® Cladding Panels, the element numbers for thecorresponding generic elements described in the BRE GlobalGreen Guide, and the Summary Ratings that these genericelements achieve.

2008 BRE Green Guide Summary Ratings, for wallsconstructed using generic Kingspan TEK®–type SIPs, as aresult of the comparatively low environmental impact of theSIPs, are heavily influenced by the external claddingspecification. Wall elements, constructed using Kingspan TEK®

Cladding Panels, correspond to generic elements, describedin the 2008 BRE Global Green Guide, which achieve SummaryRatings of A+ or A.

The environmental impact of the insulation core of KingspanTEK®–type SIPs is incorporated into the generic elementalGreen Guide Summary Ratings of the walls of which thepanels form the basis, because it provides a significantstructural function. Therefore, the Green Guide SummaryRating of the insulation core of Kingspan TEK®–type SIPs canbe taken as being A+ for the purposes of BREEAM.

Sustainability & ResponsibilityKingspan Insulation has a long–term commitment tosustainability and responsibility: as a manufacturer and supplierof insulation products; as an employer; as a substantiallandholder; and as a key member of its neighbouringcommunities.

A report covering the sustainability and responsibility ofKingspan Insulation Ltd’s British operations is available atwww.kingspaninsulation.co.uk/sustainabilityandresponsibility.

Less TransportKingspan TEK® Cladding Panels are a structural compositeincorporating several wall components in one, e.g. insulationand fixing substrate, therefore there are fewer deliveriescompared with more traditional construction methods, wherecomponents can often be sourced from, and delivered by, anumber of different distributors or manufacturers. The overallresult is less transport, congestion, noise and traffic pollution,which reduces a project’s impact on the environment.

Minimal LandfillThe UK construction industry generates at least 70 milliontonnes of waste per annum. In addition to this, it is estimatedthat 13% of materials that go to site never get used and gostraight into the waste stream. The key issue here is the land forlandfill, which is fast running out. The government is currentlydealing with this by imposing increasingly heavy landfill taxes.However, a number of EU countries have already instigated alandfill ban on combustible and recyclable materials.

Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels are factory manufactured,meaning there is minimal site wastage and therefore moreefficient use of materials on–site. The minimal levels of sitewastage means less site waste to landfill, which also helps toreduce cost.

Floor SpaceWhen building a wall to achieve a U–value of 0.20 W/m2.Kusing Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels, the structure can bejust 252.5 mm thick. In comparison, a 100 mm steel framedwall to achieve the same U–value may have to be 305.5 mmthick, a 150 mm steel framed wall to achieve the same U–valuemay have to have a wall 335.5 mm thick.

This means that Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels can providemore floor space for the same external dimensions.

With Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels, in the example shownbelow, you can achieve 16.5 m2 more useable floor spacethan a building with 100 mm steel framed walls and 25.8 m2

more useable floor space than a building with 150 mm steelframed walls of the same external dimensions and U–value(0.20 W/m2.K).

Energy SavingsThe thermal efficiency of Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels canoffer dramatic energy cost savings over the lifetime of thebuilding.

Capital Cost SavingsTo achieve equal energy performance e.g. a U–value of0.20 W/m2.K and air leakage as approximately 1m2/hour/m2 at50 Pa, the capital cost of walls comprising Kingspan TEK®

Cladding Panels may be considerably lower than an equivalentconstruction using steel framing.

Landfill SavingsKingspan TEK® Cladding Panels arrive on site as a completescheme therefore there should be no site wastage apart frompackaging materials and empty foam cans.This results in more efficient use of materials and also lowerlandfill fees.

Labour SavingsKingspan TEK® Cladding Panels are designed andmanufactured in the factory. Therefore, the scheme (includingall ancillaries and fixings) is delivered complete and from onesource, which will enable a weather–tight structure to beerected quickly.

Easily recognised components are shipped to the site forassembly, rather than waiting for a builder’s interpretation ofplans. Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels also come in muchlarger dimensional sizes than other building materials meaningfewer components have to be handled during the erectionprocess.

This can compare favourably with traditional constructiontechniques such as brick and block where there are morecomponents which can result in more processes and thereforemore labour and possible construction errors.

Opens Doors FasterWhen the building is built for the purpose of renting, the shorterconstruction time of walls comprising Kingspan TEK® CladdingPanels, can enable tenants to move in sooner andconsequently the owner achieves a better cash flow andtherefore faster payback.

Financial Advantages

17

Storage of ComponentsThe polyethylene packaging of Kingspan TEK® CladdingPanels and associated timber components, should not beconsidered adequate for outdoor protection.

Ideally, Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels and associatedtimbers should be stored inside a building. If, however, outsidestorage cannot be avoided, then all panels and timbers shouldbe kept at least 150 mm off the ground on supports, andprotected from the elements with an opaque polythene sheetor weatherproof tarpaulin sheet until used. Supports toKingspan TEK® Cladding Panels should be positioned atmaximum 1,200 mm centres ensuring the ground is flat, sothat the panels will not twist.

Any products that have been allowed to get wet should notbe used.

Alterations to Kingspan TEK® CladdingPanelsAlterations can usually be accommodated during theconstruction process if required. Prior approval in writing fromKingspan Insulation Technical Service Department will berequired. Alterations following completion of the building arepossible but more difficult and should, where possible, becarried out by a Kingspan TEK® Delivery Partner who hasaccess to the original design plans.

NB: A structural engineer must verify all alterations.

Water Ingress During ConstructionKingspan TEK® Cladding Panels are supplied so that they areprotected from the elements during and after the constructionprocess. A breathable membrane (e.g. Kingspan nilvent ®) isfactory applied to prevent site error.

Fixing Items to Kingspan TEK® CladdingPanelsThrough Plasterboard Fixed Direct to Kingspan TEK®

Cladding PanelsCabinets, boilers, radiators etc. can be fixed anywhere to theinternal wall surface using appropriately sized screw fixings.Screws should be long enough to fully penetrate through theinner OSB face of the Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panel. Forfurther information please contact the Kingspan InsulationTechnical Services Department (see rear cover).

Sitework

Jointing Kingspan TEK® Cladding PanelsKingspan TEK® Cladding Panels have a routed channel alongtheir long edges, which accommodate a unique cassette joint.These are fixed through the panel’s OSB/3 facings. Expandingurethane sealant is applied between the urethane core of thecassette and the panel. Sealing this jointing system with theexpanding urethane sealant enables walls comprising KingspanTEK® Cladding Panels to be very air–tight.

Lifting PanelsLifting should be organised in accordance with the Contractorsown method statement.

Delivery of Kingspan TEK® Cladding PanelsInformation relating to the site and its access will be requiredand should be provided at an early stage e.g. quotation stage.When Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels are delivered, it will bevia an appropriate sized vehicle.

Additional information relating to the unloading, use andpositioning of a crane and other machinery should be discussedwith the Kingspan TEK® Delivery Partner.

Supply and ErectTypically, the complete System is delivered to site ready forerection by fully qualified construction teams.

Through Plasterboard Fixed to Timber BattensInstall noggins at locations where items are to be fixed.Noggins should be the same depth as the timber battenframework and should be fixed to the inner OSB face of theKingspan TEK® Cladding Panel using appropriately sizedscrew fixings. Screws should be long enough to fully penetratethrough the OSB. Cabinets, boilers, radiators etc. can be fixedthrough the plasterboard to the noggins using appropriatelysized screw fixings.

Alternatively, in the case of rooms with many fixing points, orrooms that may be remodelled e.g. kitchens, 18 mm plywoodmay be fixed to the timber battens, using either drywall screwsat 300 mm centres, or large headed galvanised clout nails at150 mm centres, before the plasterboard is installed.Cabinets, boilers, radiators etc. can be fixed anywhere to theinternal wall surface using appropriately sized screw fixings.Screws should be long enough to fully penetrate through theplywood.

For further information please contact the Kingspan InsulationTechnical Services Department (see rear cover).

Services Installation

WiringWhere possible run wiring through internal stud partition walls.However, if it is necessary to run wiring on Kingspan TEK®

Cladding Panels there are two possible methods, double layerplasterboard or single layer plasterboard on battens. Battensshould be fixed to the inner OSB face of the Kingspan TEK®

Cladding Panel using appropriately sized screw fixings.Screws should be long enough to fully penetrate through theOSB. With both methods ensure that the wiring is protectedwith an IEE approved metal guard (see Design – 'ExternalWalls, Internal Linings').

Double layer plasterboard is an excellent option, especially ifyou are building to sell on or rent. Because there is no servicecavity, Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels have a very solidsound unlike timber frame walls.

PlumbingPlumbing is done in a conventional fashion, utilising interiorpartition walls and / or plumbing chases. Any small boreplumbing that must run on Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panelsshould be surface mounted using pipe clips screwed throughinternal lining into the internal OSB/3 facing of the KingspanTEK® Cladding Panels.

DurabilityKingspan TEK® Cladding Panels panels will have comparabledurability to that of OSB/3 to BS EN 300 (Code of Practice forthe selection and application of Particle Board, Oriented StrandBoard (OSB), Cement Bonded Particle Board and Wood Fibrefor specific purposes.), therefore as long as the wall remainsweather–tight, a life of at least 60 years may be expected.

Resistance to Solvents, Fungi andRodentsThe rigid urethane insulation core is resistant to dilute acids,alkalis, mineral oil and petrol. It is not resistant to somesolvent–based adhesive systems, particularly those containingmethyl ethyl ketone.

Adhesives containing such solvents should not be used inassociation with Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels. KingspanTEK® Cladding Panels, which have been in contact with harshsolvents, petrol, mineral oil or acids, or components that havebeen damaged in any way should not be used.

The rigid urethane insulation core and facings used in themanufacture of Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels resist attackby mould and microbial growth and do not provide any foodvalue to vermin.

Strength & StabilityThe loading capacity of Kingspan TEK® Cladding Panels issufficient for their use in cladding applications. The pull outstrength of the OSB/3 facing of the panels is also sufficient tosecure most external cladding systems. The number and typeof fixings required to fix cladding systems to Kingspan TEK®

Cladding Panels will vary with the geographical location of thebuilding, the local topography, the height and width of the wallconcerned and the type of mechanism being used to attachthe cladding system. Fixing requirements should be assessedin accordance with BS 6399–2: 1997 (Loadings for buildings.Code of practice for wind loads) or BS EN 1991–1.4: 2005(UK National Annex to Eurocode 1. Actions on structures,General Actions, Wind Actions).
