Abstract
A structural member, in particular for wall and ceiling shuttering, has a working surface and a structural frame on which the working surface is mounted; and frame members perpendicular to the working surface that form the structural frame. The working surface and the structural frame are formed integrally as an injection molded part.

A structural member comprising a working surface (22), a profile frame (14) that supports the working surface (22) and is arranged perpendicular to the working surface (22) and has at least one frame member (23) forming the profile frame (14), the at least one frame member (23) comprising:
- a beam profile (27) that is at least partially embedded in injection molded plastic,
- an upper section (31) that includes a portion of the beam profile (27) that is embedded in injection molded plastic immediately adjoining the working surface (22) and at least one internal free abutment surface (50) of the beam profile (27), and
- a lower section (29) that is not embedded in plastic, including an abutment surface (34) that is arranged substantially at right angles to the system plane (28) of the frame member (23) and a foot (32) extending along the system plane (28),
- the working surface (22) and the at least one frame member (23) being formed integrally as an injection molded part, and
- the free abutment surface (50) of the beam profile (27) being arranged at an angle that is not parallel to the system plane (28).
A process for the production of a structural member (12) having a working surface (22), a profile frame (14) that supports the working surface (22) arranged perpendicular to the working surface (22), and at least one frame member (23) having a beam profile (27) that is at least partially embedded in injection molded plastic forming the profile frame (14), in which the working surface (22) and the profile frame (14) are formed integrally as an injection molded part and at least one transverse web (17) is provided between the frame members, comprising:
- cutting at least one beam profile (27) and at least one transverse web (17) to size,
- placing the beam profile (27) and transverse web (17) arranged thereon in an injection mold, and
- producing in one injection process a structural member (12) having a working surface (22) and a profile frame (14) running on the outside of the structural element and having frame members (23) running perpendicular to the working surface (22) formed by beam profiles (27) that are partially embedded in injection molded plastic.
