Patent Images
1. A structural panel system, comprising:
- a first skin member;
a second skin member spaced apart from the first skin member, the second skin member having a plurality of perforation openings defined therein;
a plurality of elongate support members each having long and narrow sides and, attached to the first and second skin members with the long and narrow sides substantially parallel to the first and second skin members, the support members being spaced apart so that the support members and the skin members define a plurality of spaces therebetween;
a cementitious material cast around the second skin member to enclose the second skin member so that both an exterior face and an interior face of the second skin member are covered by a layer of the cementitious material; and
a semi-rigid foam core member disposed in the spaces, the semi-rigid foam core member being adhered to the support members, the first skin member, and the cementitious material.

Abstract
A structural panel system that has two skin members that are separated by a plurality of semi-flexible support members disposed therebetween. The support members and the skin members are adhered together by a semi-flexible core member. The outer skin member is movable relative to the inner skin member. The first skin member may be perforated and encapsulated by either the core member or a cementitious material to provide a variety of panel surfaces.

8. A structural panel system, comprising:
-
a first skin member;
a second skin member spaced apart from the first skin member;
a plurality of elongate support members each having respective long and narrow sides thereof attached to the first and second skin members, the long and narrow sides of the support members being substantially parallel to the first and second skin members, the support members being spaced apart along the first and second skin members so as to define a plurality of spaced bounded on two sides by the first and second skin members and bounded on two other sides by the support members; and
the first skin member, the second skin member and the plurality of support members being adhered together into a structural unit by a core of semi-rigid foam material disposed in the spaces and encapsulating the support members. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
