Instructions for construction of wood plastic wall panels

Plastic wood paneling is a type of panel used to decorate and protect walls that is waterproof, does not warp or shrink due to environmental impacts thanks to its composition of natural wood pulp, HDPE plastic and other materials. additives.

Constructing plastic wood wall panels with proper techniques will help the project be sturdy and ensure aesthetics as well as maximum longevity. Let's carry out the following 6 construction steps with Kosmos:

• Step 1: Prepare tools and construction materials.
• Step 2: Create a connection between the wall and the skeleton (catch iron rods or implant iron rods).
• Step 3: Build the skeleton (the skeleton is made of galvanized iron bars or stainless steel bars with a thickness greater than 25mm).
• Step 4: Install the first plastic wood panel (from bottom to top).
• Step 5: Continue assembling the panels until the construction area is covered.
• Step 6: Building comptele.

B1 Prepare necessary tools and supplies

First, we have to survey the work, measure and calculate the standard size. From there, we will estimate the correct number of panels and skeletons to use, avoiding excess or shortage of materials. Tools, supplies and accessories attached to the construction of wood plastic wall panels include:

• Plastic wood wall panels (flat panels or fluted panels).
• Bone bar (stainless steel bar/galvanized box iron).
• Iron beard or iron barb.
• Welder.
• Drill.
• Stainless Steel Screws
• Screw machine.
• Specialized glue.
• Cutting machines.
• Ruler, measuring machine.
• Plastic wood V brace.
• Rubber hammer.

After preparing enough materials to construct this item, we will proceed to adjust their size according to the correct measurements.

B2 Create a connection between the wall and the frame

Construction of plastic wood wall panels requires the use of a skeleton frame. To be able to fix the frame to the wall, we must create a connection between the wall and the frame in one of the following two ways:

• Method 1: Drill and catch Iron stopper up the wall.
• Method 2: Transplant iron beard directly onto the wall.

Recommendation: Do not install directly on the wall.

B3 Building a skeleton for the construction of wood plastic wall panels

Stainless steel bar or galvanized iron box are both ideal skeleton materials for this item. They have high rigidity, withstand the weight of plastic wood panels.

After choosing a suitable bone material, we will proceed to weld the separate bone bars together to form a complete frame.

Note: 

• The distance between the bones is not too much 350mm (35cm).
• The skeleton and panels need to leave a gap with the wall 7 - 10mm to install plastic wood braces.
• Galvanized iron bars or stainless steel bars used to install plastic wood panels need to be thick ≥25mm.
• Plastic wood panels must lie perpendicular with bone bars (For example, if plastic wood panels are placed on the wall horizontally, the skeleton must be installed vertically and vice versa).

Next, also using a welding machine, we will fix this frame to the iron beard (or iron switch) lying on the wall.

B4 Install the first plastic wood panel on the skeleton

When constructing plastic wood wall panels horizontally, we recommend that you do so Install the panel from bottom to top to ensure the best stability and water drainage capacity.

Specifically, we will place the plastic wood paneling facing the ground Stainless steel screws securely fix the panel to the frame.

At the location where the plate needs to be connected, the connection must be placed on the bone bar (as shown). If the bone bar is not large enough to fix both connectors at the same time, it is necessary to install 2 bone bars next to each other, each bar fixing one end.

Notes when installing ASA plastic wood panels on the frame

To Install ASA plastic wood paneling, we also need a hard skeleton system such as: galvanized iron/steel bars, 304 stainless steel bars.

Note:

• The distance between the bars must not exceed 350mm (35cm).
• We can use aluminum U bars as a skeleton when covering ASA plastic wood panels in small areas.
• We will shoot glue on the skeleton before installing the ASA plastic wood panel.
• ASA plastic wood paneling is installed by screwing: OP140X12 flat panel.
• ASA plastic wood paneling is installed through the keel: Flat panel OP113X16, fluted panel 4S184X28, fluted panel 4S184X28.

Construction of 8-wave ASA plastic wood paneling, 196mm wide, using a stainless steel keel.

Construction of 113mm wide ASA panel using stainless steel keel.

Construction of 4-wave ASA plastic wood paneling, 184mm wide, using a stainless steel keel.

B5 Assemble the positive hem into the yin of the plastic wood paneling

Wood plastic wall panels are decorative materials designed with smart yin and yang locks. When we graft the positive hem into the yin of the panel, not only Hides unsightly screw heads that the plates are still closely linked together. Just repeat this operation, we will immediately have a complete and beautiful plastic wood wall.

B6 Cover the edges of the panel with plastic wood v braces to complete

To complete the construction of wood plastic wall panels, we will cover the edges of the panel that are open with plastic wood braces. You should note, at right angle then the v-bracket needs to be cut at an angle 45 degrees.

Question related to plastic wood wall panels

How long is the lifespan of plastic wood wall panels?

Longevity outdoor plastic wood panels Can last up to 25 years if used and stored properly.

Is it possible to construct plastic wood panels directly under glass roofs or corrugated iron or poly roofs?

Do not construct plastic wood panels directly, close to glass roofs, or corrugated iron or poly roofs because the product will absorb more heat than usual. When constructing, it is necessary to leave a gap of at least 300mm (30cm) and have an additional layer of insulation under the roof.

How long does it take to construct plastic wood wall panels?

Panel construction time plastic wood Wall cladding usually ranges from 2 to 5 days for an area of ​​100m2. Besides, construction time can also vary depending on many factors: construction area, application techniques, construction worker skills, type of cladding used,...
