Abstract
The invention is related to a method of manufacturing a wall panel and a wall panel system. The method includes forming a glass-fiber reinforced cementitious layer including the steps of: pouring or injecting a slurry of uncured cementitious product into a mold, embedding glass fiber reinforcing material therein, and curing the cementitious product to obtain a cured cementitious product having a first side and a second side; and applying, to the second side of the cured cementitious product, an insulation layer, the insulation layer comprising a foam.
Claims9
A method of manufacturing a wall panel, the method comprising:
- forming a reinforced cementatious layer including the steps of:
- i) pouring or injecting a slurry of uncured cementatious product into a mold,
- ii) embedding reinforcing material therein, and
- iii) curing the cementatious product to obtain a cured cementatious product having a first side and a second side;
- applying, to the second side of the cured cementatious product, an insulation layer, the insulation layer comprising a foam, wherein the insulation layer is chemically bound to the second side of the cured cementatious product without the use of an adhesive;
- and
- applying a veneer layer to the first side of the cured cementatious product.
A method of forming a wall panel system, the method comprising:
- a) providing a plurality of wall panels, each of the plurality of wall panels comprising:
- a middle layer having a first side and a second side, the middle layer comprising:
- cementatious product and reinforcing material embedded therein;
- and
- a foam layer having a complete chemical bond to the second side of the first middle layer without the use of an adhesive;
- and
- b) securing each of the plurality of wall panels to a structural element;
- wherein seams between the respective wall panels are sealed.
