METHOD OF FABRICATING BUILDING WALL PANELS

摘要

Methods of fabricating wall panels (10) by generally continuously pultruding a wall panel profile (14) comprising inner and outer layers (34, 36), and spaced reinforcing webs (50). The so-continuously pultruded wall panel has male and a female edges. The wall panel is periodically cut for wall panel height, thereby creating an ongoing stream of cut wall panels. The panels are advanced through a corner index station, and indexed at right angles while maintaining orientation of the panels. The wall panels leave the indexing station edge-to-edge. Resin is applied to facing edges of adjacent wall panels. Adjacent wall panels are joined to each other at the facing edges, to make a generally continuous wall panel. The so-joined wall panel is cut to desired lengths. The resulting wall panel can provide tough, water-proof, otherwise weather-proof, building systems and buildings, without structural use of concrete except in floor slabs.
