FLEXURAL STRENGTH TEST

OF THE PANELS FOR BUILDING CONSTRUCTION
image
image
S.A.M. panels were independently tested at the University of Miami’s IAS-certified laboratory to evaluate fire resistance and structural performance under extreme conditions. The panels demonstrated exceptional durability, with no fire damage observed during or after testing.
CERTIFIED
Fire Resistance & Load Performance (ASTM E119)
Panels were exposed to fire for 2 hours at test temperatures up to 1000°F while supporting superimposed structural loads.
CERTIFIED
Post-Fire Structural Integrity (ASTM E72)
Transverse residual strength testing confirmed no loss of structural performance following fire exposure.

WIND TUNNEL TESTING

BOUNDRY LAYER
image
Two versions of the design - two and three bed, both with chamfered corners at approximately 1:30 scale were tested to open exposure to wind forces up to 200 mph.
CERTIFIED
wind tunnel setting
Two test configurations, with testing for 36 wind directions at 10 degree increments.

MATERIAL COMPOSTION TESTING

LOAD & COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH TEST
image
RMA Group conducted independent testing of S.A.M. panel materials to verify structural capacity and compliance with approved standards.
CERTIFIED
Load & Compressive Strength
Panel materials were sampled and tested in accordance with HCAI-approved requirements and met all performance criteria.

STRUCTURAL DETAILING

COLLABRARTION: DETAIL DRAWINGS FOR CONSTRUCTION
image
In collaboration with Simpson Gumpertz & Heger (SGH), detailed structural drawings were developed to ensure the performance, safety, and constructability of S.A.M. House one-story and two-story homes.
Structural detailing
Engineered construction documents prepared for single- and two-story S.A.M. House systems, validating structural integrity, load paths, and code compliance.
