 INTRODUCTION
● Aluminum composite panel, known as ACP, is made from the
aluminum composite material (ACM), containing two thinly coated
aluminum sheets.
● It consists of two distinct materials (metals and non-metallic) which
retains the original composition of material (aluminum metal,
nonmetal polyethylene plastic) as its main features, and also
overcome the disadvantages of the original material.
● aluminum composite panel are widely used in a variety of places,
including outdoor occasions, such as cladding, partitions and
building exterior walls, curtain wall panels, renovation of old
buildings, as well as indoor occasions, such as ceiling decoration,
advertising signs, display stands, purification and dust prevention.
● Due to its excellent properties, the aluminum composite panel has
become more and more popular and common in daily lives. The
demand and consumption for aluminum composite panel has
showed steady growth.

DIFFERENT TYPES OF ACP

•ACP by cores – aluminium corrugated core (FR class A2+) fire Retardant mineral core 9FR
Class A2, FR Class B1)
•ACP by properties – fire retardant. Anti bacterial.
•ACP By application – exterior façade. Interior façade.
•ACP By thickness – 3mm. 4mm
•Others – zinc composite panel. Systems.
Applications of ACP Sheet

Applications of ACP Sheet are as follows.

● Facade or Cladding.
● Partitions.
● Signage.
● Interiors.
FACADE & PARTIONS
● ACP panels could be used for cladding in
exterior construction and also in
interiors resulting in high longevity and
versatility.
● ACP Sheets will survive the strict wear
and tear of UV Resistant and prolong the
life of the establishment.
● all the office systems do use a sufficient
floor area at the maximum optimal level. And
they are using internal panels to do this.
● ACP has become one of the most
cost-effective variants in the spectrum of
partitioning products. Therefore, materials
are commonly used in the building world.
SIGNGAGE & INTERIOR
● ACP is used to render a wide variety of
flexible exterior signs, as signage and
hoardings are being used for exterior
applications and must survive changes
in temperature or weather.
● ACP is also the best material for these
applications in this situation.
● Wardrobes, bookshelves, and other
furniture units have become
exceedingly simple to make, as they
are sleek and attractive, even though
they are sturdy, water or stain
resistant as well as lightweight.
PROPERTIES
1. ACP is lighter in weight. it’s strong and lasting, too.
2. The ACP panel is highly favored for the beautification of buildings these days. It is
particularly suitable for building construction when paired with glass curtain wall fittings.
3. The ACP panel is completely weather-resistant in design. In reality, the colors of this don’t
fade underneath the sun’s rays.
4. ACP can be used in several colors. It doesn’t matter whether you’re going for a metallic
hue or non-metallic shade, you will imitate the shade of wood as well as marble
thoroughly over it.
5. It was one of the key factors for the immense success of the ACP countries. In the
segment of cladding material, in particular, ACP is known to be the most favored material.
6. Aluminum Cladding is known the highest in terms of thermal insulation properties. Its
properties of sound resistance are also very strong
7. This exists a thermoplastic heart, which serves to tie the materials intact.
8. Also, the design of this type is the key factor that makes it unbelievable for the outer
cladding systems.
9. Used on the outside of the house, it offers a glossy appearance and assures better safety
of the weather.
ADVANTAGES
1. Neither substance is as durable as a composite aluminum panel and can be
used with projects that are either too complicated or impractical for other
materials.
2. This is a very rigid, robust, and solid substance though it is very small in
weight.
3. It’s pleasingly versatile and easy to deal with.
4. It’s easy to use, and we can install it easily.
5. It is a very inexpensive cladding material relative to other options present on
the market and
6. It offers a broader range of colors.
7. It’s UV immune and chemical resistant.
8. ACP is environmentally sustainable and entirely recyclable panels are typically
made of over 85 percent recycled aluminum content.
9. It is resistant to termite and fungal.
10. It also is unbreakable, temperature tolerant, and resistant to stain.
11. It has a clean finish on the surface.
DISADVANTAGES

● They are vulnerable to dentition during floods and hurricanes.

● The joints must be properly closed and proper water resistance must
be performed such that there can be no entry of water further into the
building mostly during rainfall.
INSTALLATION

● There are various types of construction of aluminum composite panels based on where the
ACP is mounted, whether this is an external surface or perhaps an internal surface in several
of the methods ACP sheets is fixed to the foundation using adhesive.
● The basic philosophy that is used in the ACP installation is cladding.
● Throughout this process, the holes are bored in the wall and the aluminum frame is built
with the aid of screws, as well as the ACP sheets are mostly hanging upon on frame or
screwed onto the frame in just such a manner that the screws aren’t noticeable from beyond
the distance between the two sheets utilizing a silicone gasket.

 CASE STUDY ( KNCC MARRIAGE HALL, AGRA)
Project details- KNCC marriage hall

Architect - yashbeer

Facade material-Aludecor ACP

Area - 27560 SQ.FT

Application - facade material

DESIGN

The combination of acp and glazing L looks dynamic with the colour used.

The height of the building is 28FT .

The architect used the sand series acp sheet Aludecor .

The grains in the sand finishes panel Shine when light falls on them .

In this facade They used two colours af acp I.E ivory sand and Shadow grey .

Total acp used in the building was 27560 SQ.FT

CHALLENGES

Problems faced Were facade with ventilation So the Architect decided to provide the ventilation
through the CNC Cutting in ACP sheets

The best thing about the ACP sheet is T hey don’t lose any Strength even after perforations And are
still strong Enough to bear any wind load or stress deflection
MECHANISM AND INSTALLATION

They have used ms framing first of 25 * 25 MM Tubes

Then used 25* 50 MM tubes as base for ACP Sheet after that With round and return method T hey
have pasted the sheet on Tubes with double Architectural tape and screw it on tubes And silicon is
tubed In the joints for Pasting and to cover The screw also.
CONCLUSION

● Aluminum Composite Panels have enough benefits, they are commonly used
in a variety of locations, such as outdoor and outdoor.
● Outdoor activities typically include cladding, partitioning, and constructing
external partitions, as well as being also used curtain wall panels and in the
restoration of old homes.
● Indoor activities can include ceiling lighting, dust protection, purification, show
signs, to include a few.
● No product will be as lightweight as the ACP Sheets are. Also, it is a new age
substance that has many functional and technological benefits over
conventional materials.
● ACP is environmentally sustainable and entirely recyclable panels .With
aluminum composite frames, manufacturers usually offer 5 to 10 years of
warranty,
