Wall Panel SystemsCSR Hebel Wall Panels are precast reinforced autoclaved aeratedconcrete (AAC) panels for construction of walls where load bearingis not required.Hebel Wall Panels are designed to beused in either vertical or horizontal(preferred) applications in industrial orcommercial construction. Hebel panelsare available in stock sizes or can becustom manufactured to your projectengineer’s design specification.A fire rating of up to four hours(240/240/240) is available for profiledwall panels of 125mm thickness orgreater in either vertical or horizontalorientation. Adhesive is not required forfire performance as long as the panelshave tongue & groove profile and spanless than 3.0m. Hebel Adhesive must beapplied to joints in a fire rated applicationfor longer spans or where acousticperformance is required.

Wall Panel SystemsFinishingPanels can be finished with a suitablevapour-permeable acrylic high buildpaint applied directly to the surface.This coating system is generally usedon commercial applications wherethe bevelled edges of the panels areincorporated as a feature of the design.Alternatively, Hebel SkimCoat and HebelHighBuild have been designed to providethe perfect substrate for decorativecoatings. Both have been speciallyformulated with a special acrylic polymercombined with washed, graded silica sand,cement and selected additives to enhancethe application and workability of the mixfor a consistent finish.Below is a table showing the coatingsequence for a variety of coatingselections.FINISHING xture coatingfinishes from crispTexture profileuniform sandSkimCoattexture to anrenderelegant circularscratch appearance1.

Floor Panel SystemsCSR Hebel Floor Panels are reinforced AAC panels designed asloadbearing components in commercial, industrial and residentialconstruction applications.A preliminary thickness of the floor panelcan be determined from the table on page7 of this brochure. Contact your localdistributor to confirm the selected floorpanel thickness is adequate for the designparameters of span, load, deflection limitand fire resistance level rating.After the panels are laid, reinforcingbars are placed between the panels inthe recess and around the perimeterof the floor to form the ring anchorsystem in accordance with CSR Hebelspecifications.The joints and ring anchor sectionsshould be lightly pre-wetted, filled withminimum 15 MPa concrete grout, androdded to ensure complete and levelfilling of the notch and groove. A mixof C1:S3:A2 (5mm maximum coarseaggregate) with 150mm slump is usuallysuitable. The grout should completelycover the reinforcing.CSR Hebel floor panels provide anexcellent, solid, stable base for tile, slate,marble and other hard surface flooring,including bathroom, laundry and otherwet area applications.The smooth flat surface is also perfectlysuited to carpet, vinyl, timber boards,parquetry and decorative plywoodflooring.Panels in GeneralPanels should not be cut on siteunless they are ordered as cuttable. Itis preferred they are ordered from thefactory at the desired length. Wherepanels have been cut the exposedreinforcing should be coated with CSRHebel corrosion protection compoundor an approved equivalent.CSR Hebel panels are supplied ready foruse. They can be simply and easily laid intoposition with only the joints needing to bemortared. Installation is therefore largelydry and generally no formwork or bracingis necessary. The reinforcing in the panelsis custom designed for each project.Panels installed on CSR Hebel blockworkor steel beams can offer a flooring systemthat can be laid down exceptionally fast.As well as providing the benefits of rapidconstruction, differential movementbetween floors and walls is minimised.CSR Hebel can assist your project’sengineer with product specifications toenable your engineer to design and layoutpanels, load bearing walls underneathstructural elements and foundations.The hardness of CSR Hebel floor panelsis greater than the blocks. When ringanchors are placed accurately and mortaris poured carefully and screeded properly,the surface is level and smooth.When Hebel panels are used in externalfloor areas such as patios or balconies,it is important to use an approvedwaterproofing membrane.5CSR HEBEL WALL AND FLOOR PANEL SYSTEMS
