Abstract
Architectural sandwich panels with thin-walled cold-formed steel facings and rigid foamed insulating core are becoming more and more popular as enclosures for system buildings. In this paper, the structural behavior, including flexural stresses/deflections, flexural wrinkling, axial stability, thermal stresses and vibration, is presented, summarizing more than a decade of research. Methods used are analytical (boundaryvalued approaches), numerical (finite-strip, finite-layer, finite prism approaches) and experimental (full-scale testings). Key equations are formulated, and results by different methods are compared.
