Abstract:
A light weight structural element in the shape of a panel, especially for building construction, comprising:a support structure containing at least two supporting rods, which at their ends are interconnected by cross-bars, between the supporting rods and the cross-bars is a core and surfaces of the supporting rods are interconnected by an adhesive structural skin made from material of thickness between 0.5 and 5 mm, of direct tensile strength from 5 to 35 MPa, tensile strength in bending from 5 to 45 MPa, modulus of elasticity from 2 to 30 GPa, specific density from 1 to 2.7 g/cm3, the shear bond strength of a junction between the structural skin and the support rods is from 1 to 5 Mpa; wherein the adhesive structural skin is arranged around the supporting rods so as to form a box about the supporting rods.
