ArchitecturalInterior Wall Paneling

Compact Laminate

Arpa Compact Laminate is comprised of reinforced wood fibres and thermosetting resins which when manufactured under very high pressure and heat produce a homogenous, non porousand extremely strong material. The surface of compact laminate is achieved through a decorativepaper impregnated with melamine which gives it an extremely high wear and scratch resistant property.

Because of it’s particular material makeup and mechanical properties, Compact Laminate has the following attributes:

Impact Resistant - because of it’s solid core and hard surface, this material is a goodchoice for surfacing, wall cladding and case work that needs to be durable.

Scratch resistant - the melamine surface provides excellent scratch resistance even inheavy duty use and high traffic areas.

Wear resisant - this surface is durable and long lasting: ideal even when frequent clean-ing is required.

Non-porous - since Compact Laminate has a sealed non- porous surface, it is hygenic, chemically resistant and not affected by moisture.

Extreme Temperature Resistant - Arpa Compact Laminate is not affected by temperaturesranging from -20 to 280 degrees F.

Structural Strength - Due to it’s high flexural rigidness, Arpa’s Compact Laminate is highlysuited for self supporting applications.

Fixed and sliding points have to be formed (Fig. 15.)

Sliding pointThe diameter of the drill hole in ARPA (BG) must be drilledlarger than the diameter of the fastening, depending on therequired expansion clearance. This is the shaft diameter of thefastening plus 2 mm (.08”) for every meter of cladding material startingfrom the fixed point. The head of the fastening must be bigenough so that the drill hole in ARPA (BG) is always covered.The fastening is placed in such a way that the panel can move.Rivets are put in place with flexible mouth-pieces. The definedclearance of the rivet head to the surface of the panel (0.3 mm,.01”)allows movement of the element in the drill hole.

Screws must not be over-tightened. Do not use any countersunkscrews - use washers if necessary. The center point of the drillhole in the subconstruction must coincide with the centre point ofthe drill hole in the ARPA (BG) panels. Drill with a centeringpiece. The fastenings should be put in place starting from themiddle of panel outwards.

Fixed pointFixed points are used for uniform distribution (halving) of theexpansion and shrinkage movements. The diameter of the drillhole in ARPA (BG) is the same size as the diameter of thefastening.

Edge spacingsFor reasons of stability and flatness, the edge spacings must bekept to without fail. The joints must be made at least 8 mm (5/16”) wide so that changes in size can take place without hindrance.

Fastening SpacingsThese are to be chosen in accordance with the structuralengineering requirements (calculations) or, if this is not necessarydue to the local regulations, according to the following table. Inthe edge region of the construction, the spacings of the fasteningsare to be chosen smaller than in the central region (pressure,suction).

ARPA (BG) panels can be mounted using screws or rivets on an aluminium substructure, or with screws on a wood framework. An aluminiumsubstructure consists of vertical support profiles which are secured to the wall using angle brackets. A wooden substructure consists ofslats fitted to durable studs secured to the wall. Due to the material properties of ARPA (BG) , fixed points and sliding points need tobe made to mount the panels (Fig. 15 and Fig. 16).
