Transverse load testing in accordance with ICC-ES Acceptance Criteria for Sandwich Panels (AC04) Section 4.6; results incorporated into certified panel span tables
|
|
Concentrated load tests in accordance with ICC-ES AC04 Section 4.6.2; results incorporated into certified panel span tables.
|
|
Coupon tests in accordance with ICC-ES AC04 Section 2.2; results incorporated into certified panel span tables
|
|
Core density tests in accordance with ICC-ES AC04 Section 4.8; results incorporated into certified panel span tables
|
|
Uplift and shear connection tests in accordance with ICC-ES AC04 Section 4.2.7
|
|
Based on test data provided by Terrapin Testing (IAS TL-159, FLA TST2542), TJC & Associates has determined that the allowable diaphragm shear load for the VeriClad® panels is 250 pounds per lineal foot. When subjected to the allowable shear load, a diaphragm with a 2-to-1 aspect ratio can be expected to deflect less than 0.1 inches.

|
Flame spread & smoke development test; the VeriClad® foam core panels are recognized as Class A (IBC), Class 1 (UBC), and they comply with IRC under Section R315.
|
|
Full-scale room corner fire test of roof/ceiling assembly; the VeriClad® foam core panels demonstrated acceptable fire performance with the use of a 15-minute thermal barrier (i.e., gyp board).
|
|
Full-scale fire test of floor assembly; the VeriClad foam core panels demonstrated acceptable fire performance with the use of a 1/4" reinforced mineral board.
