UCO SOLIDWALL SYSTEM is a non-load bearing wall system which fits into modern day commercial, institution and residential building construction. It is a CIDB certified Industrial Building System (IBS).
UCO SOLIDWALL SYSTEM comprises UAC fibre cement sheets fixed onto metal studs and infilled with light weight concrete mix. It is versatile in complying to the fire-rating, sound and thermal insulation, wet application, impact strength and robustness requirements.
ADVANTAGES
FIRE RATED
Up to 4 hours according to British Standard (BS 476: Part 22)
LIGHT WEIGHT
Weight of walls is approximately 3 times lighter compared to brick walls. Density is 750-850 kg/m3.
FAST TRACK CONSTRUCTION
Easily and rapidly constructed, cutting down construction time and cost compared to traditional wall construction.
HIGH QUALITY WALL FINISHING
Wall is straight with smooth surfaces.
SURFACE FINISH VERSATILITY
Readily accepts a wide range of surface finishes, e.g. acrylic and emulsion paint, wall paper, ceramic tiles, marble, etc.
STRONG ANCHORAGE CAPACITY
Conform to BS 5234 : Part 2 requirements.
CLEANER AND SAFER CONSTRUCTION
Reduces messiness and thereafter easy to clean up at site. Also minimizes inconvenience to other trades compared to the labour-intensive conventional trade.
IMPACT RESSISTANT
Scuff-resistant, offering superior impact and abrasion resistance.
DURABLE
Immune to permanent water damage and impervious to high humidity/moisture. Also does not warp, crack or split easily.
THERMAL INSULATION
R value = 0.169 m2 K/W
SOUND INSULATION
Sound Transmission Class (STC) rating e.g. 104mm thick wall is 46 dB.
