GFRG panels are presently manufactured to a thickness of 124 mm, a length of 12m and a height of 3m. Although its main application is in the construction of walls, it can also be used in floor and roof slabs in combination with reinforced concrete.

1. Interior Wall Panels

Thin Shell Concrete PanelsThis technology brings together two well known materials to form a weather resistant wall of superior quality. The panels include a thin shell of conventional concrete, reinforced by wire mesh and supported by light gauge steel framing. The system allows the interior drywall to be applied directly onto the panel without the need for additional framing.With proper pre-planning, the simplicity of installation makes the system schedule-friendly. Windows can be directly installed into the panels before delivery and installation. If weather conditions become adverse, the building can be enclosed using the pre-finished thin shell panels on a floor by floor basis.

This allows interior finishing to proceed on schedule. GFRC PanelsGlass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GFRC) made its way into the North American market from Europe in 1973. The product consists of portland cement and silica sand composite reinforced with randomly dispersed, alkali-resistant glass fibers. The resulting mixture is a superior, stronger and more durable lightweight cladding material that can be molded to produce a variety of forms and finishes that owners and architects expect without compromising the function.GFRC is an excellent solution for constructing superior building envelop and elegant and bold architectural solutions. Centura Building Systems has many years of experience in design, fabrication and installation of exterior wall systems, such as EIFS Panels, GFRC Panels, and Thin Shell Concrete Panels.Our exterior wall systems successfully utilize the concepts of custom design and panelization to achieve real cost savings; high standards of quality control within a closely monitored environment; avoidance of the effects of adverse weather conditions on jobsite construction activity, and acceleration of project schedule.

Low Cost, Eco-friendly house has been designed by IITM. IITM’s research team, with its world renowned back up of infrastructure and knowledge, has taken construction to a whole new level. The prudent team from the civil engineering department has developed environment-friendly houses at low cost using pre-fabricated panels, made from waste Gypsum, in campus. It is being inaugurated on 7 thJune. The one-of-its-kind ‘GFRG demo building’, was constructed within a month using the glass fiber reinforced gypsum panels which was originally designed for using as walls by Rapid Building systems, Australia.
