Abstract:
A sandwich structure employs a core sheet including alternating peaks and valleys therein. In another aspect, a sandwich structure includes at least one metallic core and at least one adhesively bonded outer face sheet. Yet another aspect of a sandwich structure has raised ridges bridging between adjacent peaks in a core sheet in one direction but not in a perpendicular direction, thereby achieving different properties in the different sheet directions.

Claim (Index 2):
A method of making a sandwich structure, the method comprising:\n (a) applying tension to a core sheet while forming alternating peaks and valleys into the core sheet at ambient room temperature with embossing rollers; (b) applying an adhesive to outermost lands of the opposed peak and valley surfaces after forming the peaks and valleys in the core sheet between the embossing rollers; (c) pre-heating the outer sheets and core sheet after the application of the adhesive; and (d) laminating the assembled sheets under greater heat than in step (c) and under substantially uniform pressure.
