The EMMEDUE panel makes the installation of fittings rapid and easy.
The phases of the putting-in-place process for the tubes of the electrical and the hydro-sanitary systems are performed after the complete assembly of the panels and before completion with the plaster and the spritz-beton. The chases are realized directly in the polystyrene with a jet of hot air. Then, if the tubes are flexible, they are inserted behind the net and are made to go along the path of the chase. In the case of rigid tubes, the net is cut in proximity of the chase, the conduit of the fittings is placed and then the continuity of the steel is restored joining a plane net to the net that is already present in the panel.
For the double panel (PDME), rebars are stirrup-bent and placed with a variable space according to the structural calculation. The panel is put in place so that the rebars are inserted in the internal space of the panel which was designed for the wall and then they are included in the concrete.
The rebars will be placed both as a connection between the panel and the foundations, and at all the levels, anchored to the riddles placed on the walls of the previous level, to ensure structural continuity.
For the single bearing panel (PSME) the rebars are put in place in two lines, in alternate positions, with a distance of 30/40 cm. The panel must be placed so that it’s between two lines of irons, which will be then tied up with the external nets of the panels and then including in the shot-crete. Even in this case the rebars are necessary for anchoring the panels to the foundations and at any level, in order to better connect the walls of every floor with the walls of the previous floor.
In the putting-in-place procedure of the panels it is possible to save up to 50% of the time compared to the time necessary for realizing a traditional structure. On the other hand, however, it is necessary to keep in mind that the construction site includes other activities and realizations which are apart from the panel, and so, at the end, a 30% savings in time can be considered as a good reference point.
