For construction projects located in earthquake prone areas EPS Cement Sandwich Panel shows very outstanding seismic performance compared with traditional heavy partition walls. The lightweight feature of EPS Cement Sandwich Panel greatly reduces the total mass of non structural components inside the building which effectively reduces the additional inertial force generated during an earthquake. Even if the building shakes violently under earthquake impact the EPS Cement Sandwich Panel partition wall will not break into a large number of heavy sharp fragments that cause serious injury to people. The flexible connecting parts used to fix EPS Cement Sandwich Panel can absorb a part of the seismic vibration energy and avoid hard rigid collision between the panel and the main structure. Many local construction departments in high seismic risk regions have begun to promote the use of EPS Cement Sandwich Panel as interior partition material to improve the overall building safety level. A large number of post earthquake investigation reports show that buildings using EPS Cement Sandwich Panel as partition walls have much less secondary disaster damage than those using traditional brick walls.
