Prospects for the use of sandwich panels in the construction industry of Kazakhstan

One of the main priorities for the implementation of the tasks set in the Address of the Head of State Nursultan Nazarbayev to the people of Kazakhstan “Kazakhstan’s way - 2050: common goal, common interests, common future” is the transition of traditional industries of Kazakhstan to the production of high value added products. Structural insulated panel (SIP) in common people is a sandwich panel. Aside from the architectural and aesthetic requirements for building projects, sandwich panels could be called the ideal building material. The shell of sandwich panels is made with a good and reliable anti-corrosion coating, the insulation material has a low thermal conductivity, minimal moisture absorption, sufficient mechanical strength, and high durability. And the sandwich panel itself is resistant to harmful ultraviolet radiation, atmospheric and mechanical influences. In addition, any communications are easily laid through sandwich panels: drilling or cutting this structure is much easier than reinforced concrete panels.
