- Abstract
Reducing the weight of structures is one of the key factors in maintaining affordable housing costs. The self-weight of a structure, which makes up a significant portion of the total load on a structure, may be decreased by using the appropriate material. Today, a lightweight composite sandwich panel that can be produced quickly, cheaply, and in huge quantities is an option for housing applications. This article describes the findings of experimental research into the development of hybrid composite sandwich panels with an intermediate layer made of natural fiber composites. A brief overview of two earlier experimental experiments is included in the article. This article is divided into two sections, the first of which covers the flexural behavior of a recently developed hybrid composite sandwich panel and the second of which is concerned with the in-plane shear behavior of a small-scale wall panel. The overall results showed that the hybrid composite sandwich panel performs better than conventional sandwich panels. In flexural testing, the use of an intermediary layer enables sandwich panels to withstand higher compression strain before reaching their maximum stresses, preventing panels from early failure such as buckling or indentation. The results of a diagonal shear test showed that adding an intermediate layer to a sandwich construction significantly enhanced the in-plane shear behavior of the newly developed hybrid composite sandwich panels.
