Strength of ModuSec Panels

ModuSec panels are very light (around 20 Kg/m2 for the standard panels), but incredibly strong. The compressive strength of the panels has been measured at almost 60,000 Kg/m2 (60 T/sqm) before collapse. This means that they can be used as floor panels as well.

The ceilings have been tested and approved for service access to BS6399 for panels spanning up to 6m without intermediate support. The standard requires up to 0.25KN/ m2 for a distributed load and 0.9KN for a point load.

The system is also approved for use with pressures of a constant +/- 350 Pa with a peak of 500 Pa. For pressures exceeding these we would recommend the utilization of pressure relief facilities.

All ceiling panels are fitted with a pair of steel channels connected by a non conductive plate - located centrally along the length (or at other locations if required). This allows loads up to 100 Kg per fixings for pipes, cable trays, etc. Provision for heavier loads can be made. Lighter loads (up to 30 Kg per fixing) for lights, conduit etc. can be fixed directly to the steel skin of the panel.
